Instagram Post Specs & Tips
Get the most out of your Instagram posts with the right dimensions and content strategy.
Optimal Image Size
Use 1080 x 1350 px (4:5 portrait) for maximum feed visibility. Square (1080 x 1080) also works but takes up less screen real estate on mobile.
Carousel Reach Advantage
Instagram carousels get 1.4x more reach and 3.1x more engagement than single images. The algorithm shows carousels multiple times if users don't engage on first view.
Up to 10 Slides
Instagram supports carousel posts with up to 10 slides. The sweet spot is 5-8 slides for engagement — enough to deliver value without losing attention.
Best Content Types
Educational tips, before/after reveals, and step-by-step tutorials consistently outperform other formats. Pair with a strong CTA on the final slide.
Hook the First Slide
The first slide needs to stop the scroll. Use a bold headline, high-contrast colors, and a clear topic promise to earn the swipe.
