Would you like all of your Instagram messages to drive users direct to your Insta account to help you accrue followers? Perhaps you have a piece of gated content you’d like to push or a special offer all of your followers should know about. Here’s a simple way to drive traffic in just a few clicks:
- From your Miappi main page, navigate to your chosen wall by clicking it’s name, then select the feeds option on the left hand dash.
- Click the loud-hailer symbol next to the feed you’d like to add a call to action to – a pop up box will load.
- Add the text for your call to action and the link you want your message to take visitors to – you can even customise the colour of the button background and the button text.
- Click Save and close the box, then navigate back to your main screen and click Live View to see how your call to action will appear on your social wall.
- Click the text to check your link works. This should take you to a new tab where your destination page is shown.
- To turn off your call to action, simply return to the feeds tab and turn off the green loud-hailer symbol.
Sometimes you want to push one message and use all of your resources to do so, sometime it pays to take a more detailed, subtle approach.

- Stay on your Miappi main page to add unique calls to action to individual messages.
- Hover over a message and select the loud-hailer symbol which appears at the top.
- Follow steps 3-5 from the instructions above to enter your bespoke message, add your link and view the results.
- To turn off your message, hover over the post again and turn off the green loud-hailer symbol.
