But recent numbers show that it\u2019s quickly becoming a profitable way for dropshippers: less saturated, highly visual, and packed with potential buyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Huge, ready-to-buy audience<\/strong>: Instagram is projected to hit about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oberlo.com\/statistics\/instagram-user-growth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>1.50 billion users in 2026<\/strong><\/a>, and over <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.shift4shop.com\/instagram-statistics-ecommerce\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>70% of shoppers use it to discover products<\/strong><\/a>.
