Use custom backgrounds 

As much as you would want to keep your feed looking great, you may also want to make your stories lok aesthetic. When you’re sharing your latest post to your story, you may be disappointed to see that it only falls flat on a plain background. You can do something about this to make it look more customized. Here’s what you need to do: 

  1. Take a screenshot of the latest post you wish to post on your story and crop it so that only the post image is visible.
  2. Click the ‘Add post to your Story’ from your feed post.
  3. Increase the post size on your story until it fills the entire screen.
  4. Click the sticker icon at the top.
  5. With the photo sticker feature, choose the personalised background that goes with your post.
  6. Add the picture you captured in step one.
  7. Upload the story.

Use interactive stickers, links, and GIFs

You can also use these elements to provide engagement on your post. This will make your stories more dynamic. It will also help you understand your followers and what interests them. This can be easily done with the Q&A sticker as well as polls that help get your followers’ opinion. When it comes to aesthetic appeal, you can also overlay the stickers or use them collectively to make your story feel more personalized. 

Use shadow tags 

Tagging brands and other people on your stories is fun and it helps boost your engagement. However, using the mention sticker can somehow ruin the beauty of your Instagram story. It may also look like an added clutter to the limited space you have. Gladly, you can hide the mention sticker while still mentioning those whom you need to tag. 

To do this, you can either drag the sticker to the far right or left part of your screen. You may also want to reduce it to the smallest size until the tag looks almost invisible. 

These are just some handy Instagram story tricks you may want to try. For more tips on social media and other life hacks make sure to stay updated with our latest Wiringly posts!
