    Default Instagram Stories - Better than SnapChat?

    So, Instagram now has a feature that is almost exactly like SnapChat called Stories. The pics/vids stay up for 24 hours and you can choose who can see the media out of your followers list. It has a few filters but no AR filters like SnapChat, (the dog ears, tongue, ivy heads etc.).

    I've tried it and it works well. Instagram also now allows you to have multiple accounts so it will be much easier to manage a "premium" account.

    Oh, I just made my work IG this week!
    Go to your profile, tap your name in the upper left corner and there should be an "+Add Account" option. From there it takes you through the set up of another account. You can switch between your accounts by tapping your username just like you did to make a new account.

    My issue is that now that I have this shiny new IG account, what the heck am I going to do with it? I love my personal IG, it's my fave social media (all the good stuff, minimal drama!) but I've never used it for adult work. I'm gonna search around for pointers but if anyone can point me in the direction of a good thread on the subject I'd totally suck your strap on.

    So, today, Instagram straight up said a fuck you to both SnapChat and Periscope by offering disappearing photos and vids AND live vids.

    I am all about efficiency so I am no longer offering SnapChat/Periscope and going all in with Instagram! YAY for less work!

    That is something. I never could wrap my head around SnapChat. Its one of those services I decided to pass up. It felt silly to me? I don't think Im gonna say goodbye to periscope just yet.

    Also, if you can get Verified on Instagram, you can send direct links in your stories, photos/vids, disappearing photos/vids and live vids.

    Can you view those disappearing vids from the web interface? Because if one can see them in the browser, one can (in theory) download them. I take it the advantage of Snapchat video is that it's only in-app, and so isn't that easy to save. (I may be talking out of my butt here, because I've only just downloaded Snapchat.)

    I'm getting more and more excited about this. I keep checking everyday to see If I have live video enabled. My instagram followers are really interactive. I don't think I would try to sell subscriptions however. Just use it as another means to get the info out there.

    GOALS.


    Also, since Periscope decided to disable my account on Tuesday- even though I don't do anything on there to break the rules.... Instagram innovating like this is super exciting for me.

    I wonder if it would be better to make my instagram private? Has anyone ever done this with insta? I have a smaller private twitter account that I've kept private for awhile now and it works really well. I'm just afraid of losing my account due to someone reporting me or them cracking down on sex workers more than before with all these new updates

    Do you all have separate phones/computers for this? I have found that of all the services insta is THE most insistent on linking up all your accounts/emails/contacts, regardless of what privacy settings you put on it.

    I also question the usefulness of it. Insta is mainly young guys right, so if you're targeting older, more affluent customers, is there any point in using it?

    I use separate devices, but honestly before I did that and only used one phone and my desktop I never ran into any problems with things getting linked. I do pay very close attention before I select anything and have noticed instances where I almost linked an account because of the way the popups were designed. I admit they can be very sneaky with the constant changes in the interface. I'm talking about twitter,fb and instagram mostly.

    In regards to demographics I don't think about it too much. At least not for Instagram. I just checked and its mostly under 30 but they still have money too! They just may not buy the same things as someone who's older. But as long as you're offering different things then it should be okay.

    I'm on the fence about it. Just running a twitter poll and the results so far are interesting. The 2nd highest age range who use insta (according to my followers) is 35 - 45. That is prime earning age. hmm

    Hootsuite reckons 28% of 30-49 yos in the US use Insta, which is damn good population coverage imo

    just bumping this to see if anyone still has a preference to using insta over snap? definately prefer using insta in my private life and find snap to be very childish but maybr i am missing the point? also does anyone have a ballpark figure of what should be charged for insta premium?
    I deserve the life i want. To be adored by men, treated like a princess and to be indulged. I deserve nothing but a life of luxury.

    I too have found that snapchat for my particular personality to be a bit childish. I can't get into it. However I love the Instagram live feature. But I don't charge for it. I've created groups that I send out messages saying that I'm going to stream for a bit and then only add specific people to the stream. I use it as a tease. After I stream I send out another message saying thanks guys for showing up and showing some love by booking shows and videos. LOL its a dickhead move but when I send the followup message to those who couldnt see the viewing as well as those who did. But it converts sales. I like interacting with them on a small scale so its no biggie to do this every now and again. I do not charge guys for premium/group access.

    I use both and I like both for various reasons , most of my regular snaps I post on insta stories and vice versa. I have only gone live a few times But I see going live always nets me a good amount of new followers and I do get sales from insta but I only spend the time on it I allot myself.

    Overall finding out what platform works best for you and or your brand because not everything suits everyone.

    Just curious how many of you who use Instagram stories are able to add links? It has to be on a business page, I know. But the weird thing is the most active Insta doesnt have it yet. Where as one with low engagement has the ability to add links in stories.
