We all know that Instagram started as a photo-sharing app, then later on also became a platform for uploading videos and selling products. Visual content has become the most useful tactic when it comes to digital marketing. The “IG Story” is an Instagram feature that is not only interactive but is also a way to display good visual content. It has been widely used even by different brands for promotion.
According to studies, there is an 80% chance that people will remember what they see. That’s why we recommend you to post photos that are aesthetically pleasing to the eyes of your audience.
