I'm worried that auto-posting tools will make my Instagram feed look messy and inconsistent in style. Should I be concerned about how my profile grid looks?

Don’t sweat what the profile looks like, especially early on. Here’s the reality: 90% of people who experience your content do NOT experience it on your profile at all. They experience it in their feed as they scroll. People are scrolling all day long, seeing individual posts. When something really catches their attention, then they might visit your profile, but that’s secondary. Everyone gets hung up on making their profile look balanced and composed, but that’s not how people discover you. Focus on creating engaging content first. Later, after months of posting, if you’re getting feedback that people are confused, then you can make course corrections. But in the beginning, this is not a problem worth worrying about.
