Wondering what goes into your Stories response statistics? Here’s what you need to know:
- Any text you receive following your Story is counted as a reply.
- The emojis your followers send you are also considered replies in their own right.
- Even the quick reactions predefined by Instagram (such as heart, fire, applause emojis, etc.) are included in this metric.
Tip: Encourage your followers to interact with your Stories by asking them questions or inviting them to share their opinions. The more responses you elicit, the higher your engagement!
