Instagram to start putting ads within the Explore page – June 26
Instagram is adding an ad placement to its app on the Explore page.

It should therefore look very much like an Instagram feed ad, and the ads will be photos and videos.
Advertisers will have an option in their Facebook manager to select or not this specific placement.
