Instagram Adds Video to Ad Carousel
Posted in: Uncategorized
Instagram is pushing further into video ad formats, adding video to the carousel product it launched last year.
Carousel, first announced in March 2015, offered advertisers a way to show multiple photos on the same sponsored post. Now advertisers will be able to add multiple videos to the same sponsored post. Videos can be up to 60 seconds in length. The format launches in beta today and will be rolled out wide in mid-May.
Among the first advertisers are Airbnb, Macy’s and Taco Bell. The carousel ads are being sold on a cost-per-thousand-impressions (CPM) basis.
