Stories are one of Instagram’s most popular features! The more you add to your story and interact with your fan base, the more it influences the algorithm and gets you more traffic. So for those of you who haven’t embraced the newest feature, here’s where you find it:

1. In the top left corner of the app, choose the spot where you would normally add a story.

It’s that simple! If you don’t have images prepared, it’s a creative way to post to your story without stressing over pulling content out of nowhere. 

There are currently 8 features that you can choose to make your Insta story creations. What are they?

1. Happy Birthday: Post a special Happy Birthday shout-out to your story!

Darla emphasizes that you need to go check it out for yourself—and Natalie is totally on board. Experiment and find your favorite feature and start increasing engagement with your fan-base!
