Schedule your first Instagram comment alongside every post
Keep your captions clean and still share all the hashtags and extra details you need with SocialBee’s First Comment feature.
Why schedule the first Instagram comment?
Cleaner captions
Say more with less. Keep your main caption short and move hashtags or extra details into the first comment.
Stronger calls to action
Add promo codes, or resources in the first comment so they stand out without distracting from your post.
One and done scheduling
Plan your post and first comment at the same time. No more logging in later to add what you forgot.
Kickstart engagement
Use the first comment to ask a question, share a fun fact, or encourage replies so your audience engages with your post right away.
