But unlike Stories, you need to create original content to get the most out of this new feature. Instagram Stories are designed to be short, sharp videos that you can easily cross post. But IGTV allows for much longer videos, meaning that you can create content that reaches more people and captures their attention. Long-form tutorial content has become extremely popular on IGTV, with some brands even developing whole TV series.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Target_specific_hashtags_for_IGTV\"><\/span>Target specific hashtags for IGTV<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Using IGTV can be a powerful way to increase viewership, but there are some things you must remember when targeting hashtags. First, make sure you include hashtags that are relevant to your brand and industry. If you are promoting a make-up product, use hashtags related to that industry. A beauty blogger, for example, should use hashtags related to makeup. Another way to attract viewers is to use shock and surprise. Make sure your video is catchy and enticing enough that they want to watch the whole thing.<\/p>\n<p>Using hashtags that are relevant to your topic will ensure that your content appears at the top of search results. These will help you get more followers and increase sales. The hashtags you choose must be trending on Instagram. The hashtags you use should also be relevant to your industry and your service. Copy the hashtags of other users and add related ones to your own account. Using hashtags can also help you increase your audience and get targeted traffic.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Schedule_your_IGTV_videos\"><\/span>Schedule your IGTV videos<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You may be wondering how you can schedule your IGTV videos on Instagram. Fortunately, the process is actually quite simple. The Instagram Creator Studio features a calendar and time settings. You can select a date and time when you want to publish your IGTV videos, and then simply click the Schedule button to set a schedule for publishing them. This way, your IGTV videos will automatically publish on Instagram at the scheduled time.<\/p>\n<p>Before you schedule your IGTV videos, make sure your cover image and title are optimized. If your IGTV video is longer than 60 seconds, choose &#8220;Share Preview to Feed,&#8221; which shares a one-minute preview of your video to the feed. This will boost engagement and drive more traffic to your IGTV channel. Once your video is published, share the link to your IGTV channel via Facebook.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Upload_your_IGTV_videos_from_your_phone_or_computer\"><\/span>Upload your IGTV videos from your phone or computer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To upload your IGTV videos from your phone or PC to Instagram, simply follow the steps below: Select the video from your camera roll or choose an image as the cover photo. Add a title and description and click the &#8216;Post&#8217; button to post your video to your feed or profile. To add as many videos as you like, you can create series to share them in the future. Once you have uploaded several videos, simply tap the &#8216;Save as Draft&#8217; button to keep them in your IGTV channel for future posting.<\/p>\n<p>IGTV videos can last up to 10 minutes or sixty minutes. While the minimum length is fifteen seconds, verified accounts can upload videos that are up to 60 minutes long. Videos must be in MP4 format, and they should be between 15 seconds and 10 minutes long. If you are uploading longer videos, you can create a verified account and upload videos that are up to 60 minutes long. To upload a video to IGTV from a computer, you must first export the video to your computer.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Post_a_preview_of_your_IGTV_video_to_Instagram\"><\/span>Post a preview of your IGTV video to Instagram<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are several ways to post a preview of your IGTV video on Instagram. For example, you can edit your cover photo or add a video to a series. Then, you can choose whether to post your IGTV video preview to your profile or feed. If you&#8217;re planning to post a lot of videos, you can also create a series. Once you&#8217;ve created a series, you can share the videos through your profile or Facebook page.<\/p>\n<p>After creating an account on IGTV, you can add your videos by clicking the &#8220;Post a preview&#8221; button. If you&#8217;re uploading a video that is over 60 seconds in length, you&#8217;ll want to choose &#8220;Share as long video&#8221; and click &#8220;Post a preview.&#8221; This way, your video will appear on your followers&#8217; feeds and be displayed as a one-minute preview.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Create_an_IGTV_channel\"><\/span>Create an IGTV channel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Creating a video description is important, but many people don&#8217;t use it to its full potential. The title of your video should not only tell a story but also serve as a lead-in. The most effective titles ask an enticing question and add value to the viewers. When writing a description, use three to five keywords to make it easy to find relevant content. Choose content and industry-specific hashtags and also include some trending ones.<\/p>\n<p>IGTV videos are not as spontaneous as Instagram Stories, which are more spontaneous. Rather, most creators make use of a smartphone camera and simple video-editing applications. The maximum video file size is 3.6GB. Despite its limitations, IGTV is quickly becoming a popular social media platform for users and can be a great way to increase your reach and engagement. You can create an IGTV channel with the tools you already have or get an app that enables you to manage multiple social media profiles.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe height=\"234\" width=\"418\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cL6G7nbcT-M\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do I Get IGTV on Instagram?
