Asking followers to comment or send a dm which trigger works better for you on Instagram?

For a long time I’ve been asking people to comment a keyword as a call-to-action to get my freebie.

But now, it feels like comments don’t really help boost a post’s reach anymore on Instagram.

I’m thinking of changing my CTA to ask people to send me a DM to get my freebie instead.

Do you think this would get better open rates and click-through rates? Has anyone tested this?

Hi, @cenz5209!

“It depends”…

In my cases, commenting directly at the post is the fastest way to interact. Calling the audience to you DM requires some extra clicks/touches.

You can always test it creating similar CTAs and analyze if it changes something relevant.

Hope this helps!
