What makes a strong Instagram handle
Keep it short and easy to spell, because people often type it from memory. Match it to your content so a new visitor instantly gets the theme. Skip long chains of numbers and underscores when you can, since they make you harder to find and to tag. If your name is taken, add a small word that describes what you post, which reads better than random digits.
