INSTAGRAM TERMINOLOGY |
|
| Handle
|
On your profile, your Instagram handle can be found at the very top in black lettering. When you sign up for Instagram, choosing a username is one of the very first things you’ll do. Instagram usernames are actual names or businesses. |
| Story | Twenty-four-hour posts found at the top of the Instagram news feed. Stories can be pictures or videos; they appear at the top of the Instagram newsfeed and, unless you save your Stories as highlights, they’ll disappear after 24 hours |
Highlights |
Stories Highlights is a new part of your profile where you can express more of who you are through stories you’ve shared. And to help you build highlights, your stories will now automatically save into a private Stories Archive so you can easily relive them whenever you want. |
| Caption
|
Instagram captions might include a call to action, a funny quote, or explain the story behind the picture. Captions are the place for hashtags, too; they’re almost 2,000 characters long, so you can fit a lot in there if you choose. |
| Direct Message | Instagram DM’s are private messages between invited users. DM’s don’t apply to your engagement rate, but they are a great method of building engagement and trust with your followers; conversations over DM can make users more likely to come see your other posts. Responses to your Instagram stories also come to you via direct messaging. |

An influencer creates engaging content for their follower base; most influencers are focused in one specific domain, such as fitness or beauty. Generally, influencers have over 10k followers. |
