Key quotes:

  • Shortly after the rollout, Insta began allowing users with verified accounts to seamlessly post links within their stories, and since May of 2017 more and more accounts have gotten access to this in-demand feature
  • Clickable links within Instagram Stories are now also available to many business profiles (not personal ones) with 10,000 followers or more.* Which means that, for the first time, a high-visibility post can link back to your website, blog, or Namastream product seamlessly and easily
  • If you’ve got access to the linking feature, adding a live link to your most recent blog post, your website, or even another social media account is a cinch
  • To ensure that viewers are aware of the live embedded link, be sure to include a call-to-action in your story text that directs them to it
  • Adding links is a HUGE first step toward connecting your Instagram account to your blog or website
  • If you’re demonstrating a series of yoga poses, include a short video and a few stills on Insta, then create a final slide that directs users to your site for full instructions
  • But if you really want to leverage your Insta following and increase traffic to your site, tinker around with Instagram Stories links.

Key quotes:

  • For example, the social media savvy fashion brand @valfre (here’s an article that’ll show you how to find the most valuable influencers to do partner with) uses their story highlights to always have a direct shopping link to their latest product release
  • If you run a blog and have seen your traffic dwindle or if you’ve never had one but always wanted to tell more stories, highlights is the perfect medium to either send more people to your new blog posts and boost your traffic or even use it as a blog replacement to tell the stories you’d like your audience to see
  • Instead of posting about my contest 3 or more times on my account (which I consider annoying and low-quality content), I used the story highlights to let my followers know I was giving away more than 20 pins from my favorite pin makers for free
  • For example, the always-excellent-on-Instagram beauty giant, @glossier , uses their story highlights to partner with personalities to a) show people how to use their products and b) cross promote with other social media accounts and grow each other’s audience.

Key quotes:

  • Stories has been out for a while, and I’m pretty sure it’s the next big growth channel for Instagram marketers (along with live streaming)
  • I use Later to save posts that my followers have tagged with my hashtag to my media library
  • The media library works across the Later mobile and desktop apps, so I can use the Later app on my phone to save those photos to my phone’s camera roll
  • (You can use Later to search for any accounts or hashtags, not just from your own brand hashtags, and save that content to your media library) As most Instagram content is in a 1080 by 1080 pixel square, and stories are vertical 608 pixels wide by 1080 tall, I needed to make a template to convert between these
  • The point being that we can use our standard background that we’ve just made on Canva, and just swap out the photos we’ve added to our Later media library to quickly create posts to use in Instagram stories
  • As soon as you save the image to your camera roll, Instagram counts it as a photo you’ve taken, so you can use it in your Instagram story for the next 24 hours!
