WHY DOES TRENDING REELS AUDIO MATTER? 👇🏻

Reels Are Here To Stay

Do you notice your Instagram engagement increase after posting an Instagram Reel? We thought so, and you’re not the only one. In a world of short attention spans, these bite-sized videos grab your audience's focus and hold onto it.

There was a 57.4% year-over-year increase in usage for Instagram Reels in 2023.

Can’t argue with that.

Instagram users are getting lost in the Reels scroll – and we’re here for it.

What Is A Trending Audio on Instagram?

Now, let's get to the heart of the matter - the audio. When a sound or song is "trending" on Instagram, that means it's growing in popularity — which means that if used well, your Reel could be on the upward swing. You’ll know if a sound is trending by a tiny arrow next to the audio's name. ↓

How to find a trending reels audio on instagram

Do Trending Audios Actually Matter?

So, why should you care? Because the right trending Reels audio can turn a “pretty good” Reel into an unforgettable “holy sh*t” one. It sets the mood, enhances the vibe, and makes your content stand out in the crowded world of social media. Using a trending audio indicates to Instagram’s algorithm that your post will likely perform well, which means that your Reel will be shown to more users, more often.

Even Instagram’s very own @creators account shares trending audios, and that’s how you know it’s real.

The data is worth a thousand words. Instagram Reels generate an engagement rate of 1.23%, where carousel posts are at 1.02% and standard image posts are at 0.72% (source: Influencer Marketing Hub).

Average engagement rate for Reels, carousel posts, and static posts on Instagram.

How Do I Find Trending Audios?

This part gets a little tricky, not all trending audios are created equally! Here are a few of our favorite sources:

  • Bookmark Scott Social’s “Trending Reels Audio This Week” Article (Updated Daily!)

  • Take a Scroll Through Your Instagram or TikTok Feed

  • Follow Instagram’s @creators Account

  • Follow Popular DJs Like @austinmillz

  • Browse Instagram Reels Templates

  • Look Through Instagram’s Trending Reels Page (when you see a Reels Audio with the upward slanted arrow, click on it – Instagram will direct you to a page with the Top 50 current Trending Audios, although we find many to be iffy)

The Power of Trends

Tapping into trending audio is like riding the social media wave. It puts your content in front of a broader audience, helps you stay relevant, and might just land you on the coveted Explore page.

That said, they also aren’t the “end all, be all”. If you can’t find a trend that fits your business and audience, no worries – skip the trend today and set your own path.

Regardless of how you use them, Reels are one of the best – and most effective – ways to harness the power of short form video is through Instagram Reels.

Stay tuned for the latest audio trends every day and keep those Reels rolling!
