Instagram is a free and the largest-growing social- media platform with more than 1 billion active users. The advent of Instagram brought a new experience for social networking enthusiasts. Just a little while ago, Instagram announced its 700 million users milestone. A growth of almost 30+% in a little time tells us more about this platform’s popularity and future potential than anything else. It was a success right from the beginning with over a million users only two months after it was launched. After months of trying, Instagram was created and launched on oct.06.2010. 25000 users showed up on the first day. After that, it was just growing itself. Instagram nailed the timing and hit one million users in three months! Then became 2 million which later became ten million users! And it was all organic growth without any advertisements.
The Beginning
Instagram was developed in San Francisco by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger.

Sponsored ads, Instagram stories and partner with influencers. The new Terms of Service suggested Instagram would be allowed to use pictures in advertisements without notifying or compensating users, and to disclose user data to Facebook and to advertisers. Instagram also proposed that the parents of minors implicitly consent to the use of their childrens' images for advertising purposes. The new Terms of Service also introduced a mandatory arbitration clause which would force users to waive their rights to file a class action lawsuit in most circumstances.
