9. IMages posted via Instagram receive more engagement than native Facebook image posts

In a study of over 1 billion Facebook posts from 3 million brand pages, it was found that images posted via Instagram receive more engagement than natively published images. They get almost 23% more engagement than images posted via Facebook.

The thing that makes its more interesting is that naturally cross posting from one platform to the other results in lesser engagement. However, Instagram being owned by Facebook, it could prove to be a benefit for Facebook by making posts via Instagram to be more visible in the timeline.
