Anyway, one of the faults with Instagram is that without the apps or external apps, searching and viewing Instagram is a challenge. I hate it actually, but it is what it is. Post and forget. But there are time you want to post s certain photo to your blog right there and not have to put too much work into it to do it. I am going to explain how to post an Instagram photo to your Blogger blog.
You will need to make a setting change in your blog in order for this to work. Second little quirk is not to use the email feature when you post the photo. I'll explain that later.
First go into your Blogger Dashboard and then into your blog you want to post photos to. Select Settings > Mobile and email. You are going to want to add a secret word and allow posting via email. Then select if you want the post to be published immediately or draft it for you to review and post later. Up to you.
That's all you have to do for Blogger.
Now to share a photo, this actually works for any photo not just yours, you are going to want to Email Photo NOT Share Photo. If you share it via email Instagram adds a bunch of pre-defined messages which go right into your blog title and body that you have no control over. Instead you want to email photo.
Put in your Blogger posting email address.
Your email Subject will be your blog Title.
Put some filler text in about the photo if you choose.
Take off any signature lines your email program may add.
Send it and that's it. You can instantly share a photo from Instagram and post it to your blogger blog.
Here are two samples I did on my own blog - Parking Lot Tilt Shift and a Test Video In Instagram.
