Instagram captions FAQ
What are good captions for Instagram?
Good Instagram captions are short, specific to the photo, and sound like you. A strong first line matters most, since Instagram cuts captions off after roughly 125 characters in the feed. Browse the themed lists above to start from a line that already fits your post.
How long can an Instagram caption be?
Instagram captions can be up to 2,200 characters, but only the first 125 or so show before the "more" link. Put the hook up front and treat the rest as bonus detail.
Should I use hashtags in my Instagram captions?
Yes, but keep them few and specific. Three to five hashtags that describe the actual content beat a wall of thirty broad ones. Every themed list above includes a matching hashtag set.
How do I come up with my own captions?
Start from what the photo made you feel, keep the line under ten words, and read it out loud before posting. Our Instagram caption writing guide breaks the craft down, and the free caption generator drafts options from a short description of your post.
