Moving down their feed revealed a pretty awesome way of viewing this profile. When you visit Hootsuite’s showcase profile that uses this grid method pretty extensively to showcase companies and artists, you immediately are captivated by the text banners they created as you scroll through the images. Social Media businesses like Hootsuite, have promoting this kind of Instagram behavior as a marketing tool to help people get likes and to promote business when done well. Instagram has been changing a whole lot, and while this isn’t a native format, there have been mixed feedback and application of these grids. The result is a pretty interesting Instagram profile that can break down the feed into sections or just displays the photo in a unique way. The owners of these instagram accounts segment one photo into typically 3, 6, 9, 12+, square blocks and post them in a progressive order, typically by using some apps that make it pretty simple– like Giant Square or Banner Pic.

More and more companies and individuals have been jumping onto this trend since the Summer of 2015.
