Short-form, vertical video is everywhere.
While some say TikTok was the catalyst for this video format, Instagram Reels has helped this type of content go mainstream. Now other platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and even LinkedIn, are prioritizing short-form vertical videos in their algorithms. Compared to regular video posts, short-form video Reels on Instagram receive at least 10x more views thanks to Instagram’s new priority structure.
The reason? This type of content is what people want to consume, and therefore it keeps users on platforms for longer periods of time. This means that businesses should be using short-form videos, especially on the two largest short-form video platforms (Instagram and TikTok) in order to reach more people than they were able to previously.
Instagram Reels and TikTok can be huge for businesses of all shapes and sizes, as platform prioritization and consumer satiation of these videos can help them spread the word to thousands of people about who their business is and what their business offers with the potential to go viral.
