In between the lo-fi selfies, the gratuitous food porn and the #nofilter sunsets that often seem to define Instagram, smart brands are finding creative ways to distinguish themselves and gain targeted followings on this visual social powerhouse.

That’s a 500% increase in users since last year, according to research from Simply Measured. (You can see the full list of the top brands on Instagram here.)
