Will Adding Multiple Captions to Instagram Carousels Boost Reach?
The Instagram Stories - Social Media NewsShow Notes
The Head of Instagram answers questions weekly, and on this show, I dissect the answers. On today's episode, we break down who can see what on Instagram - if someone can tell you viewed their profile, if there's a way to know who saved and shared your post or Reel, and if someone sends you a DM you haven't accepted yet, if they can tell you read it. We'll also get in to some reach related questions, including if having multiple captions on a carousel will boost reach, and if carousels are still valuable. Plus we get into some feature suggestions, and at the end, I ask for questions so I can do my own Ask Me Anything episode.
