Let’s quickly go through the biggest stories of the past week and learn what all happened in the digital world:
Instagram introduces keywords to its search
Move on hashtags, Instagram has fallen for facilitating content search with the help of keywords. This feature will soon do away with the use of hashtags for searching images and videos on IG. The new Instagram keyword search works by allowing users to type in a keyword such as “digital marketing tips” rather than being limited to a hashtag like #digitalmarketingtips.

YouTube updates its video analytics
YouTube Analytics is getting updated with a new report that will show creators how viewers are finding their videos. You can find the new report in the Analytics tab in YouTube Studio. In the Overview area, there’s now a section titled: “How viewers found this video.”
Traffic sources included in the report are:
- Notifications
- Subscriptions feed
- YouTube recommendations
- Channel pages
- Other
The YouTube team doesn’t explain what ‘Other’ sources would be but we think it will be very much like Referral in Google Analytics.

Snapchat allows users to display their follower counts.
Snapchat has finally decided to give its users the ability to display how many users they have on their public profile. This might look similar to the followers’ counter on Instagram.
Earlier, Snapchat has never shown follower counts publicly. Only users themselves know how many followers they have. Here’s the statement from the folks at Snap:
“We have listened to feedback from our creator community and many of them showed concern in having the option to show that their account on Snapchat is growing,” said the Snapchat spokesperson. “So, starting today, we are giving creators the option to display their subscriber counts on their public profiles.”
Subscribers counter can signal Snapchat’s users that your business is relevant to follow and they can enjoy your content.
With a public profile, you can add a bio, profile photo, website link, email address, location, and more.
