A carousel post is a type of social media post that contains more than one photo or video that users can view by swiping left on the post through the phone app. Desktop users can view a carousel post by clicking on the arrow button on the right of a post. Carousel posts are a great way to get people to pause and engage with your content, especially if the first slide is enticing enough. They are versatile and can be used to showcase products, display features, provide multiple offers, and more. Instagram carousels outperform both photo and video posts in terms of engagement. To create a carousel post on Instagram, users can select the option to create a new post, tap on the option to "Select multiple," choose the photos or videos they want to upload as a carousel post, edit the photos and videos by applying filters, and add details to the post, including a suitable and enticing caption that could prompt engagement. Carousel posts can be created on various social media platforms, including Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Pinterest.
