Fist, What Is An Instagram Poll and why do they work to increase engagement?
An Instagram poll is a question that you ask your followers to answer using one of Instagram’s stickers and it typically comes with multiple choice answers. You can ask anything, but it’s generally best to keep it short and sweet because the reason these stickers increase engagement is because they’re easy to interact with.
If you want to get even more engagement, make sure that the question is something people care about or are interested in knowing the answer to. Polls should be fun and engaging so that people feel like they have a say in what’s going on and want to contribute their opinion!
