Want to grow both your followers and get more engagement on Instagram?

Well then you’ll definitely want to make sure you’re creating & posting Carousels!

Carousels are posts that have multiple slides, as of now you can have up to 10 slides per post that allow you to combine photos, video and text, meaning you can share your most valuable content. Carousels are great for the algorithm because people spend more time on these types of posts while they’re going through all your slides.
