Coucou everyone, I’m Betty.

Today, I’m going to share how to upload or create your own stickers on Instagram and you can use them in your own story.

Step1: Set Up your Giphy Account!

You need to have a Giphy account.

If you’re into memes and gif, you might already know Giphy

According to its website, GIPHY is the GIF Search Engine
GIPHY is the fastest, simplest way to search and share GIFs and stickers across all of your favorite social channels. Enjoy our powerful GIF Keyboard and iMessage extensions that put GIPHY at your fingertips. Spruce up boring conversations with our GIPHY Emoji and GIPHY Text libraries — exclusively available in the mobile app.

For now, Instagram and Facebook connected the API with GIPHY. So that’s how you can search for your Gif stickers.

I will put the GIPHY link on my description and you can easily find it.

Step 2:Apply For An Artist Channel

Before you apply for an artist channel, you need to have at least 5 stickers!

In another video, I will share how to make the gif stickers and how do I achieve 1B views.

So, for your profile, it’s better to place all of your websites, links, and descriptions on it.

Then I got the email saying that I’m approved by them in March. So voila, I can search my stickers in the stories now!

However, even I can upload my stickers on Instagram and achieved 1B views on my account. I didn't get a verified blue check until August. That’s strange but people said that it’s because of the merge between Facebook and Instagram. So that’s why it took so long to get verified.

Here’s the applying artist channel for you!

Step 3: Some tips for you about what you need to be careful

When you upload your stickers, you need to be careful of the tags you use.

1.Tags

Use the tags that let your audience easily find you. Like me, I use my account name like “betttyestpartout” or “bettyest” which is shorter for my followers to search.

Before I thought I would just add this one and people can find all of my stickers.

However, Instagram changes their algorithm or something that you search the tags and you can only see 44 stickers on it.

Unfortunately, you need to separate 44 for yourself. Otherwise, sometimes you can’t find your stickers.

Of course, you can add some popular tags or some exclusive tags that not many people make good stickers. This one will help you when people are trying to search the tags.

2.The Time to find your stickers on Instagram

Usually, it takes 24 hours to see your stickers online and then you can find it.
