*CONTEXT*

We have seen that, Audience on a platform like Instagram, LOVES creativity.

IG, as a platform, has given it& #39;s creators canvases to play around in terms of creation.

1. Posts
2. Carousals
3. Video (<1min)
4. Reels
5. IGTV
6. Stories (YES! this is a canvas too)

(2/13)
Now we all know about

1. Posts, 3. Videos, 6 stories (Twitter call these Fleets)

IGTVs are hardly used since people prefer YT for long form video content.

However, there are a few pages which are completely either.

2. Carousal based or 4. Reels based
(examples below)

While exploring these, I stumbled upon another creative way of standing out from other accounts,

@WeareZuddl you beauty! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙌" title="Erhobene Hände" aria-label="Emoji: Erhobene Hände">

Created a landing page out of an Instagram account.

*The REALISATION*

While exploring these profiles, I asked myself

1. "How can I make my account stand out from others"
2. "How can I make people visit my profile often"
3. "How to convert visitors into followers"

After staring at my boring profile, something stuck me!

What is a dynamic profile?

Right now the creators have a lot of liberty to showcase their creativity of designing their profile by having access to "adding posts/ Videos/ Carousals"

or to create a landing page out of it,

just like @WeareZuddl did.

(9/13)
However, a lot of space is available at the top of the profile where a visitor first lands (highlighted in RED)

Designing this, should be given in the hands of creators to showcase how they can convert,

A visitor into a followers as well as a "Fan" of the profile.

This will not only caters to the ability to,

1. Stand out.
2. Gain more profile views.
3. Convert visitors to followers.

But

1. Will also give an opportunity to newer account profiles to go VIRAL based on their creative talent.

2. And is not easy to just copy.
