4 Sure-Fire Ways to Get More Story ViewsHey friend. Happy Monday. As always, we like to keep it short and sweet (because Monday).Today, we're sharing a few ways to get more views on your IG Stories.  Use IG engagement stickers: The algo is a big fan of folks using IG's in-app features like stickers. If you're looking to boost your stories, add an engagement-driving sticker (such as a poll, emoji slider, or quiz) to the very first story you share.  Add an extra story at the end of the day: This tried-and-tested tip comes straight from Later’s Social Content Lead, Lindsay Ashcraft.    “Adding a new story at hour 22-23, right before the rest of our stories expire, gives all of them an extra boost in views.”   Share exclusive content on Stories: If your community is genuinely interested in what you're doing, they'll eat up behind-the-scenes content, personal stories, discounts and more.   Tap into Instagram’s close friends feature: Instagram prioritizes content from “close connections.” This is a great way to show up at the front of the feed. Just don't overdo it. The folks at Later.com do great job breaking down story view tactics here.
