Here are the steps you should follow to set-up an Instagram account for business:
- Download App and register your account

But preferably, mobile phones are more recommended to have rather than any other device as the postings are more frequently possible on the network. So, register an account on Instagram and take the process forward.
- Link it to Facebook
Another major step is to connect your Instagram account with Facebook Business Page if you don’t have. Allow Instagram to manage a Facebook business page when it asks for permission. This will help you post the content on both the platforms easily.
