YouTube is now in Listing Studio.
Spring is peak listing season. More listings means more to promote.
Listing Studio builds your landing pages, social posts, and ads in a few clicks. Now you can post directly to Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube from the same place. It also generates Seller Reports so your clients can see exactly where their listing is showing up.
First campaign is free. No credit card needed.

■ COOL IG WE SAW

AI is a useful drafting tool. It’s also why everyone’s captions are starting to read the same. This carousel breaks down the tells: the em-dashes, the buzzwords, the “but here’s the thing” opener, bullet points for everything, copy that sounds polished but doesn’t actually say much.
The fix isn’t to stop using AI. It’s to edit it until it sounds like you wrote it.
■ WHAT’S NEW IN SOCIAL
01
Instagram Insights just got easier to read.
The app overhauled its analytics section this week. Instead of one long scroll, Insights is now split into three tabs: Overview, Engagement, and Audience, with key metrics like views, reach, and follows surfaced in larger displays. If you review your account performance at all, it’s a cleaner setup. The update went live April 26.
02
You can now edit a carousel after it posts.
Instagram now lets you reorder or remove slides from carousel posts after publishing. You can’t add new media, but you can fix the sequence. If you’ve ever posted a carousel and immediately wished slide 3 had gone first, you now have a fix. Tap the three dots on the post and look for Edit.
03
Reposting other people’s content is going to hurt your reach.
Instagram head Adam Mosseri announced that accounts sharing content they didn’t make or meaningfully edit will stop being recommended to non-followers. The policy already existed for Reels and it’s now expanding to photos and carousels too. If your feed leans heavily on reshared content, that’s the thing to change.

73%
