What is a carousel? Swipeable posts and ads on Instagram and Facebook

The short answer
A carousel is a post or ad combining several slides the user swipes through: on Instagram several photos or videos in one post, and on Facebook also cards, each with its own photo and link. A carousel ad in Ads Manager takes up to ten cards.

Why does Carousel matter to a seller?
Because the first slide attracts and the rest explain: one product from several angles, several products, or steps of use — and a user who swipes spends longer with the post.

Frequently asked questions
Is a carousel better than a video?
Each has a job: video stops the scroll, the carousel shows detail and comparison. Try both on the same product and compare the results.
What goes on the first slide?
The product and its offer in a sentence, and a hint that there is more if they swipe.
