Instagram Live Videos

Instagram is the first social media platform that allows you to go live with anyone you like; split the screen, share it with someone and both of you can be live at the same time which extremely feels personal and a great way to connect with your followers/audience.

Here are the top 8 things that I’d like to share about Instagram live: 

1. You don't need to worry about comments, shares or views since comments will not appear on live videos and live videos cannot be shared.
2. You can relax while having your live video. People will understand that your feed is an actual and the raw you. No need to struggle to be professional for your viewers.
3. Very easy to consume since Instagram live videos appear on top and very likely to be seen first.
4. Less personal version of Facebook live. Your videos will be more likely to be viewed by other potential followers.
5. Instagram notifies your followers that you are going to be live and it will help you to gain viewers live on feed.
6. You need to get right on it. Hook your viewers early in your live posting.
7. Do a regular Instagram live. In this way, you can practice making live videos and become better at it. It will also build you a consistent viewer since they have already anticipated that you have built a scheduled post of your live videos.
8. Before going live with anyone, be sure to advise them and schedule them together ahead of time. 

Instagram Live is a great way to add even more content on your Instagram, whether you’re interviewing someone, working out with them, or just telling impactful stories, your viewers will recognize the effort that you’re putting into it.
