Content Ideas for Every Instagram Format

Content Ideas for Every Instagram Format

 

Instagram takes into account your habits, preferences and the desire to get creative, and offers you several formats to post on the platform. 
For those who are on the go, and usually very busy, you have Instagram Live. 
For those who love to post as many updates per day as possible, you have Instagram Stories.
In the last two years, we’ve seen the emergence of reels, created for those who don’t want to install a new platform (TikTok), but still want to create fun, video content.
At the end of the day, the major struggle when posting on Instagram for most people is CONTENT. We know monotony is the death of progress on Instagram, but consistency is key. So in order to achieve the right balance, you need content ideas to stay consistent.
