Instagram stories are a fantastic way to keep people coming back to your Instagram profile. When you open Instagram, you can instantly see about three Instagram story icons, whereas you can only see one or two posts, therefore, already you’ve got more of a chance of being seen if you post to Instagram stories.
Plus, with Instagram stories, there’re so many more ways to engage with people. Hold polls, hold votes, get people to answer things for you, invite people to ask you questions, get them to slide a fire emoji and so much more. The more people interact with your stories, the further up you’ll appear in their stories list and then inevitably their Instagram feed too as they begin to interact with your posts too.

A new trend hitting Instagram stories for bloggers is the “This or That” stories. These stories involve posting a simple template to your story and then get people to vote for which they think you like the best and then revealing your actual favourites after they’ve voted through them.

Therefore, I thought I’d create some for you to go and post to your stories. Below are over 10 designs you’re free to use. If you tap on them, they’ll open in 1920x1080p resolution – perfect for Instagram stories! Then all you need to do is create a story using the image and then use the “Poll” feature on each choice as separate stories. Enjoy!

There you go – there’s ten “This or That” templates for you to freely use on your social media platforms. If you WANT to tag me on Instagram, you can find me here.
I’ll likely be doing many more of these and so I’ll likely do another post with another ten soon too.
