The popularity of different social media platforms was phenomenal over the last few years. According to a recent survey, 97% of the millennials share pictures while travelling, especially on Instagram. A creative community leveraging the power of visual storytelling, Instagram has now become the most preferred alternative for people to share their positive experiences. With more than 600 million active users as of now, over 40 billion photos have been shared till date by the Instagram users.

It gives great opportunities for business on Instagram.”

The report published by Hashtag the World identifies New York City as the world’s number one hashtagged city in 2016 with over 68 million posts and a growth rate of 79% compared to the previous year. The other cities ranked within the top five are London, Paris, Dubai, and Istanbul.
