Frequently Asked Questions

What is a social media carousel?

A carousel is a series of swipeable slides in a single post, commonly used on Instagram and LinkedIn. They generate significantly more reach and engagement than regular posts.

How many slides should a carousel have?

The optimal length is 7-10 slides. Start with a hook, deliver value in the middle slides, and end with a CTA. Instagram allows up to 20 slides.

What makes a good carousel post?

Great carousels have a compelling title slide, consistent design, one idea per slide, readable text, and a clear call-to-action at the end.
