TOYSREVIL Instagram 2013 In Review

Having been on Instagram only since March 2012 (March 25th, to be exact) … took me a while to get there, only after I scored me a hand-me-down iPhone 3 from my brother, and since then, it has become my default venue to post about my life, without the cumbersome words that go with blog-posts (altho there have been quite a few sentences in the 'grams ;p).

Hardly an Instagram powerhouse, with an exceedingly modest number of followers and even lesser "likes" (to which I think I am being over-modest here with my self-assessment haha), typically a snap struggles for the coveted red hearts, with the most being slightly over 100, as evident as these 4 x images, which used to leave me dumbfounded, as it hardly parallels the nearly 4000 "Follows" I have LOL



Funnily, I've even received negative commentary in the past, "complaining" about me posting "food" pics, and to stick to toys haha - not likely happening at all, unfortunately, as I have a whole blog of my own to do that in! … so maybe that's why? LOL

And while in terms of "numbers" these seems pretty much a "failure" in terms of "self-promotion", but in reality Instagram has offered me a way to SHARE my life with folks out there, to folks like YOU, beyond the toys on my blog, beyond "self promotion", and that, to me, is GOLD.

P/S#1: In reality, all 5 top pics were toys-related, with Bad Apple by GOIN x Mighty Jaxx x Instinctoy, Egg Fiasco's Bambaboss Hellboy custom, Good Smile Co's Colossal Titan Nendoroid, and two snaps of McBess' Half-Mermaid! So maybe I SHOULD stick to just toys pics? LOL

P/S#2: You can assess all these stats via logging into Statigram.com and clicking on the "SNAPSHOTS" tab found via menu-top :)
