Creating a Close Friend List on Instagram
You can create a Close Friend List on Instagram by adding your closest friends to your followers. By adding your friends to your Close Friends list, you’ll have their stories and photos visible to a limited number of people. If you’re unsure of who your closest friends are, you can use the search bar to find them. You can also tap on suggested accounts to see their photos and videos. It’s easy to create a Close Friend List.
Creating a Close Friend List is a great way to tailor your content to a specific audience. Although Instagram was initially designed for a mass audience, it was also meant to cater to inner niche circles. Often, you’ll find yourself wishing you could share a specific story with a small group of people. Fortunately, Instagram allows you to select a certain number of people to share your stories with, although it’s difficult to monitor who gets included and who doesn’t.
Hitting a user’s story
In order to make your Instagram Story as effective as possible, there are some things you need to keep in mind. Stories only last for five to seven seconds and users don’t look at still images for that long. According to a study conducted by Facebook’s parent company, top-performing ads use quick cuts and keep the action moving. If you can’t use videos to share your story, consider using Instagram stickers.
First of all, it’s important to understand what a user’s engagement is. A high number of followers doesn’t necessarily mean a high amount of Instagram impressions. You should consider the number of back taps to understand which content people want to see twice. Then, make sure your content is short, between 280 and 300 characters. In a Facebook IQ study, Story ads performed best when people spent 2.8 seconds viewing a story.
Hitting a follower’s story
One of the easiest ways to generate engagement with your followers is by hitting their stories. Using Instagram’s story feature, you can highlight your products, customers, and recent activities. Stories are great for highlighting insights and testimonials from your customers. You can also use stories to share big orders or new products. Posting stories is an excellent way to build trust with your audience and drive sales. Here are a few ideas for hitting a follower’s story:
Add a countdown timer. Instagram stories come with a discrete arrow and the caption “See More.” Use a countdown timer that fits the tone of your brand. If your story contains a GIF or a video, add a caption encouraging users to swipe up to read the rest of your story. Use a corresponding hashtag to encourage your followers to swipe up your story.
