Create your ad history
• So far, advertising on Facebook can only be an addition to an existing advertising campaign on Facebook or Instagram news.
• You can use existing ads for feeds on Facebook and Instagram, but this format is poorly translated into stories. Make sure you use the original ad.
• As in history, advertisements have a full-screen vertical format. 1080 x 1920 pixels and confirmations that it matches the style of other plots.
• For an image, you can select one image or a carousel of up to six images. Duration no more than 15 seconds.
What to include
• A picture or video should have time to tell a story. Use creative, compelling image and minimal text.
• The most popular advertisements are those that sell or promote, receive a new product, or provide tips or advice.
• The advertisement should contain the name of your brand and logo, so be sure to use an image that has a place for these elements.
• Do not forget the sound - 60% of Instagram stories are viewed when the sound is on.
• Be sure to include your URL and call to action (there are 13 options to choose from).
