Industry data shows Carousels average 0.55% ER versus Reels at 0.52%, making them the highest-performing format — shifting the content mix toward Carousels could meaningfully close the gap between the current 0.18% overall ER and the benchmark floor. Aim to publish at least 3 Carousels per week, using multi-slide storytelling formats that encourage swipe-through behavior and repeat visits.
