@@ioannamouratidou2006 I don't think that would be a good move. I'm working more toward having my account for business purposes so brand recognition is far more important than me liking what my username is. It is what it is.
I didn't know about that 14-day period, thanks for letting us know! I am considering changing the name on Instagram and here on RUclips, but I am really worried about the broken links. Also, the name I ideally want is taken, so I guess I would have to buy it from another person if that person agrees... A bit complicated.
when you say name are you referring to profile or username? it would be helpful to see errors pointing to which name you were referring to or simply say profile name or username.
Thank you!! I feel I need to make this change since I now have 2 RUclips accounts and their matching Instagrams, and both need the same name. However the Instagram that needs changing has 12k followers and theres around 100 videos in this RUclips that have the image on screen of the old name (which is my name, Tisha Klemetz, that honestly few people can spell right). Since one of my brands is integrative health and the other one is entrepreneurship, no single account should use my actual name... I am also going to change the websites accordingly. But I love the workaround of a second account. So the issue of potentially losing followers that are coming over from RUclips would only last for 14 days. I'll have to live with it. ;)
Thanks for the advice Jonny, very useful. I'm also a photographer and heard the same advice! Therefore I too want my Insta account to be just my name. Thanks for sharing 😎😎😎
Dude I've question about the ads. Can we simply promote a post through Instagram or should we go through the Facebook ads manager process? What's the difference and which would yield better results?
You can do either, if you're wanting to do something more complicated like advertise a product definitely use ads manager if you're just wanting to promote a post the IG way is sufficient. You might find this video useful ruclips.net/video/9eVn0B8S9v8/видео.html
There are so many people giving advice on instagram, but yours is by far the most useful and just down to earth. It is actually applicable, even for small accounts. I do have a question, when switching to a professional account how important is what you choose and should you display it? I make handmade clothing and accessoires and don't know if I should go for Artist or Clothing, I've seen both on similar accounts
Thanks Zoe. I think in that case it's important to think of the end product. If your account is focused on generating repeated sales I would say clothing, If your account is focussed on how the clothes are made and there is more of a bespoke nature to it, I would say artist. I'm not saying if you want repeated sales you aren't an artist, I'm saying think of which of these gives you the best return based on what you want to get out of IG (usually awareness or sales).
@@ItsJonnyKeeley *Hey Bro, can you plz tell me if someone can change his Username (not name) on instagram unlimited times or does it have a limit ???* plz Reply
Nice one Jonny, loads of good points. I’m at the point 10k loads of mentions and wanting to remove the photos bit too. But I own the other name I want already so it’ll be a swap. effectively the same thing as your work around. But glad to see someone else thinking this way.
Have you swapped successfully? How long did it take? I have the same story - I own both names, but there while having this 14 days gap - anyone can have your nickname, which is huge risk of losing it.
Hi. I need help. I own both nicknames, but while having this 14 days of waiting gap (many claim there is much more to wait) - anyone can have your nickname, which is huge risk of losing it. How to do such swapping risk free?
Same issue…..don’t think there is a way of “switching” 2 usernames, without waiting 14 days…..but then you run the risk of a bot grabbing it on the 14 day before you! Flawed
Sir @Jonny Keeley, I changed my username and somehow ended up creating a different account under the same email and password. Can’t login to the previous one now? Help pls
I have 2 accounts. 1.TypeA and the 2.TypeB. I have a lot of followers on TypA but I would like to change the name to TypeB because its more professional. So to do that I would need to change TypeB to TypeB.1 as the first step (?) and wait 14 days I guess? after 14 days I could change the Account TypeA to TypeB? is that right? Someone told me that if I change TypeB to TypeB1 it could happened that TypeB disappears forever? Meta/Instagram is not answering any requests of cause. Thanks in advance for your help
Hey so my Instagram account was hacked but I was able to recover it. They changed my username. I’ve tried changing it back to my old one is it possible to make it the name it was before?
Hi, I want to swap usernames between 2 of my accounts but I have to wait 14 days so my question is : is it EXACTLY 14 days starting from the moment I change it ? Also, is there a timer I want it to be the least risky of having my username stolen by some bot.
I just found out that others can see how many times i changed my insta name it would be nice if that could be removed. I have problem with my name in Instagram and i have it since 2015 and i was changing a lot. They all similar to each other but i never was happy about it in the end i give up and left it as it is. But i hate that others can see i changed 14 times since 2015. That's really private why they show that i don't get it. In beginning i was not sure what page i want to make food then photo then flowers then completely different topic so i need to change few times for that reason and then i was trying to have cool name but never was happy about it and was changing often. Reason why I did is innocent but i wouldn't take a person seriously if i would see so many name change and that's not fair 🤦
I been trying change my bio name since September it still tells me to wait the 14 days. It’s January could you help what to do? Cause I tried deleting the app and ect & still want let me change my name
@@ItsJonnyKeeley This happens to me too, Ive been trying about once a month to change the name. I've checked the name to see if it is in use but it isn't and I get the green tick to say the name is available. Instagram either doesn't update the name when I exit out of the edit page or I get the 14 day error. Please help!
Great content. Its been nice watching you grow on yt and insta.
Thanks loads mate!
Bro this is beyond helpful 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 And thank you for the insight!!
I don't like my Instagram name. But, if I were to change it, I wouldn't like the new one either.
You can still try it

Yes username
Brilliant. I was wondering if this works with RUclips (changing and creating a transfer account in the old name)? You tried that?
Hi, I can't find any info about the QR code do you know if that changes? Thank you.
Just your words were enough to decide....thanks Keeley
Thanks Jonny it was really helpful.
So helpful, thank you Jonny!

Do your followers get notified when you change your name?
Do you also lose all your “like” history from others if you change your user name?
Hello, does anyone know where I can get a 4 letter name?

Thx bro
I did change my user name after i looked at other accounts that had almost the exact name n my old name was so "generic"...
It can go both ways I guess.

If I delete one of my Instagram accounts and want to use the name on another one of my accounts is that possible?
Yea you just have to wait for the period of time, which I think is 14days.
