The Facebook-owned company is taking things a bit further with a new online guide in the works to guide businesses with better branding tips for images shared on the Instagram stream.

Starting with a few basic tips that might seem so obvious they’re usually ignored, the photo sharing service has already published the first series of tips from the new Instagram Handbook for Brands.
