Why is Instagram so successful?
The key to Instagram's success lies in the way it combines captivating visuals with a fluid and immersive browsing experience. Its diverse formats, such as stories, reels, and feed posts, offer multiple ways to present content that captures the audience's attention.
In addition, engagement on Instagram is notoriously high, especially in our niche: iGaming. People are not just spending time on the platform, they are actively interacting with brands, influencers, and products that spark their interest.
Advantages of using Instagram as a source of traffic
Direct connection with the target audience
On Instagram, affiliates have the opportunity to create engaged communities. Through relevant content, it is possible to build trust and attract users interested in exploring more about the brand or services promoted.
Tools such as polls and question boxes in stories help to interact directly with the audience, which creates a sense of proximity and increases the chances of conversion.
Focus on visual marketing
Success on Instagram is driven by high-quality images and videos. For 1win Partners, this means creating posts that not only inform but also visually engage your audience. Eye-catching banners, short videos and teasers about promotions can be the key to making your campaigns stand out.
Diversity of advertising formats
The formats available on Instagram are ideal for a variety of strategies. For example:
* Feed: great for permanent and detailed content.
* Stories: excellent for quick and temporary promotions.
* Reels: the perfect bet for reaching a larger audience with creative and dynamic videos.
* Guides: with the growth of this function, affiliates can create thematic collections to organize content and facilitate navigation.
New features for Instagram in 2025
Instagram’s recent updates bring new possibilities for publishers:
1- SEO tools: It is now possible to optimize posts for internal search on Instagram. This means that, by using relevant keywords in captions and hashtags, your content can be found more easily by users.
2- Links in comments: The platform is testing the option of allowing clickable links in comments. This function can be useful for redirecting traffic directly to landing pages or promotions.
3- Expanded collabs: The collaboration function in posts now allows up to four profiles to be tagged as co-authors, expanding reach and engagement.
5- Improved interactive stickers: Poll and quiz stickers now offer more customization options, helping to create even more engaging interactions.
6- Shop integrated with Reels: Brands can now add shopping links directly to Reels, transforming short videos into instant shopping experiences.
7- Changes to profile and image sizes: Updates to the profile layout bring a cleaner and more organized design, making navigation easier and highlighting the most important information. In addition, it is recommended to use high-quality profile photos that are clearly visible on any screen, and prioritize vertical and eye-catching images in the feed, as they capture more attention as users scroll through the page.
Effective strategies for affiliates
Use strategic links
While Instagram doesn’t allow clickable links in feed posts for non-paid posts, it does offer useful options such as “link in bio” or stickers in stories. Plus, with the new link functionality in comments, publishers have more opportunities to redirect traffic.
Create valuable and consistent content
Posting regularly is essential. Provide tips, relevant information about the iGaming industry and content that encourages followers to interact with your page. The more engaging your content, the more traffic you will generate.
Invest in paid ads
Instagram Ads offers precise targeting to reach specific audiences. Publishers can use this to their advantage to promote exclusive offers, seasonal campaigns and brand events.
Measuring results: the key to success
To know what really works on Instagram, it is crucial to monitor metrics. Tools like Instagram Insights allow you to track the performance of posts, identify which strategies generate the most engagement and adjust campaigns for better results.
