however, only a few people were using that button, so Instagram removed it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Facebook representative told <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2020\/01\/18\/igtv-button-gone\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TechCrunch,<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201cAs we\u2019ve continued to work on making it easier for people to create and discover IGTV content, we\u2019ve learned that most people are finding Instagram content through previews in Feed, the IGTV channel in Explore, creators\u2019 profiles and the standalone app. Very few are clicking into the IGTV icon in the top right corner of the home screen in the Instagram app.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can now use IGTV via the Explore page. You can search for any IGTV video, just like how you would search for any other account in the search bar.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Ideal_IGTV_Dimensions_and_Specifications\"><\/span><strong>What is the Ideal IGTV Dimensions and Specifications<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The recommended IGTV dimensions should be 1080 pixels wide and 1920 pixels tall (<strong>1080&#215;1920)<\/strong> for the best quality. These dimensions go for IGTV, <a href=\"https:\/\/pixelied.com\/blog\/instagram-video-size\/\">Instagram video size<\/a>, Instagram Stories, and Instagram Live videos. The aspect ratio should be <strong>9:16<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like most Instagram stories or Instagram images, IGTV videos are also viewed in a vertical feed, so it\u2019s best to keep your videos aligned with that approach. As you probably might have noticed, the video size is usually the size of most smartphone screens (Android or iOS).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is recommended that you should upload your video on the IGTV channel after you&#8217;re done with video editing. While you&#8217;re uploading your video you can only add or resize a cover image, cut the video, or add sounds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It may be super exhausting to remember all of these details but it\u2019s worth the effort. It helps make your captivating content more appealing. We\u2019re going to be discussing how to create videos that look great and meet IGTV\u2019s dimension recommendations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Create_an_IGTV_account\"><\/span><strong>Create an IGTV account<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that you have all the information and are ready to explore the IGTV world, you can create your IGTV account.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creating an IGTV account is as easy as it is to create an Instagram account, and you can link both together. All you have to do is follow a few steps which I\u2019ll explain below:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Download the IGTV app from your smartphone app store<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sign up for the IGTV or link it to your main Instagram account and it will automatically use your native profile<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you click the \u201cbrowse\u201d button, IGTV will pull up the menu with the gear icon next to the search bar<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click on \u201ccreate channel\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Add your information and set up your channel<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All your current Instagram followers will have access to all the IGTV videos that you upload on your main Instagram page. You now only need to worry about creating fun and engaging Instagram videos for your followers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Instagram_Video_Length\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instagram Video Length<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instagram has different video lengths for IGTV, Instagram Posts, Stories, or Live videos. If you upload a video to your Instagram stories longer than 15 seconds, the app is going to slice up the longer videos into 15-second sections, like Snapchat, and that too for only up to a minute.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, IGTV video lengths go from anywhere between 15 seconds to 10 minutes long. But if you have a larger fanbase or a \u201cverified\u201d account you can upload videos up to 60 minutes long from a computer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hopefully, this feature will be available to all Instagram user accounts soon. Since most of the time, new features were only available to influencers and larger fanbase accounts before making it available to everyone in the past.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, Instagram feed videos play between 3 seconds up to 60 seconds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All put together, your video posts are suggested to be around 30 seconds. As per <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/marketing\/how-long-should-videos-be-on-instagram-twitter-facebook-youtube\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hubspot<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, comments received regarding video post length had an average consensus of 26 seconds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instagram is all about visuals, and trust me there\u2019s a lot of competition. With over 8 billion videos being viewed every day, your video should be compelling enough to keep the user hooked till the end of your video. It&#8217;s a part of having a great digital marketing strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, your IGTV video file should be under 650MB for any video less than 10 minutes. For long-form video going up to an hour, the maximum file size should be 3.6GB. Also, your video format should be MP4.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Create_your_IGTV_Cover_Photo\"><\/span><strong>How to Create your IGTV Cover Photo<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s always important to have an IGTV Cover especially if you will be uploading a review video on Instagram. This cover photo will show up on the grid, in the form of a thumbnail, and will help the viewers get an idea about the video.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many editing tools available in the market such as Adobe Photoshop, Premiere Pro, etc to create IGTV covers and edit videos. And while there may be tutorials available online, they might seem to get too complicated. Alternatively, you can use the online platform: <strong>Pixelied<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pixelied allows you to create IGTV cover photos, and Instagram story covers with ease. You can create your IGTV cover from scratch or by choosing one of the thousands of templates. I\u2019ll explain some steps below:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_%E2%80%93_Create_a_Design_or_Choose_from_a_Template\"><\/span><strong>Step 1 &#8211; Create a Design or Choose from a Template\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To get started, simply choose from the thousands of <a href=\"https:\/\/pixelied.com\/templates\/instagram-story\">Instagram story templates<\/a> on our free <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pixelied.com\/editor?width=1080&amp;height=1920&amp;format_category=instagram-story\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">editor<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the left-hand side, you can choose from thousands of templates.

Just as you start to get a grip on things, something new always pops up. With more than one billion users signing up on Instagram every month, it\u2019s the perfect place to improve your business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, with this amount of competition, it\u2019s not the easiest thing to do. That&#8217;s why some people opt for Instagram marketing. Below I\u2019ll be discussing the nitty-gritty along with some tips to get the best results for your account.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s always important to have attention-grabbing cover images on your IGTV channel, and I\u2019ll explain why. When users scroll through your IGTV, that\u2019s the first thing they\u2019ll lay their eyes on. An alluring image will compel more people to click on your videos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, without one, it just might make it look unprofessional, and it will make users have to read the description to get an idea of the video\u2019s context. This makes it harder for people to click and just watch the video without the help of a cover image.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Additional_Things_to_Keep_in_Mind\"><\/span>Additional Things to Keep in Mind<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another thing that always matters is consistency. Posting content consistently is super crucial to your IGTV account. Believe it or not, brands or even influencers are only successful because of their engagement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The more consistent you are with your IGTV videos, the more your followers wait for your content, and engage with it regularly. You need to get them hooked one way or another. Otherwise, it can easily spoil your fan following.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another thing to notice is that most users usually watch videos on mute or don\u2019t have enough volume turned on to understand each word. It\u2019s best to have on-screen text for your IGTV videos, as they grab attention relatively longer than others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This adds context to your videos and helps in the viewer\u2019s experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be sure to use as many relevant hashtags as possible to get better reach. It also helps in categorizing posts, to show to those interested. This way you can get discovered by new audiences. But keep in mind that you don\u2019t want to go overboard with hashtags, as it creates negative repercussions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bottom_Line\"><\/span><strong>Bottom Line<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s safe to say that you now know everything you need to know about IGTV dimensions and <a href=\"https:\/\/pixelied.com\/blog\/instagram-story-dimensions\/\">Instagram story dimensions<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s the perfect opportunity to take advantage of increased engagement, as there is relatively less competition on IGTV. Creating amazing IGTV videos requires good knowledge to understand the specs needed for each video.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s important to stick to the video format requirements and keep the aspect ratio and video resolution in mind.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>However, don&#8217;t focus on IGTV dimensions to the point where you forget about the content you&#8217;re posting. There&#8217;s a lot of room for creativity in IGTV, regardless of the dimension limits and requirements.<\/p>\n<p>Using this information and an <a href=\"https:\/\/pixelied.com\/blog\/instagram-ad-size\/\">Instagram ad size<\/a> guide, you can jumpstart your Instagram page today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With over 77% of people watching videos online, Instagram found an interactive way to engage its audience with Instagram TV (IGTV).
