Instagram, powered by Reels, ascends the paid social media throne
Briefly

In 2025, Instagram's ad revenues are projected to reach $37.13 billion, surpassing Facebook as the largest social ad platform in the US, owing largely to its diversified advertising strategy.
Instagram's growth will be driven by Reels, with estimates indicating more than a quarter of its ad revenues will come from this format and other new ad styles, highlighting Meta's effective monetization strategy.
As Instagram evolves, its share of total US digital ad spending will rise to 11.1% by 2026, showcasing its significant impact on the advertising landscape and the effectiveness of its transitions.
Compared to Facebook, Instagram has diversified its ad revenue streams more effectively. By 2025, less than half of Instagram's revenue will come from Feed ads, while Facebook continues to rely heavily on them.
