When you hit 10,000 followers on Instagram, you unlock the swipe-up link feature for your Instagram Stories. This feature is unique and helpful because it allows you to share links with your audience without having to first send them to your bio. Apart from this feature, there are no official features unlocked after getting to 10,000 followers on Instagram. However, people may be more inclined to follow you and view your content if you have thousands of followers because it’s a simple sign of credibility on Instagram.
