hey @froger, i own a big account, i use live streams to promote stuff and i have been banned from it i believe ( tried on different devices and only that account doesn't work) i plan to do tons of stuff and live streams are REALLY important for me, any idea on how to fix that ?

If you want i can provide screenshots/screen captures; i have been trying too fix it for days and i cant find a way to do it

Yes -- I just started using these methods after I had about 50 accounts get shut down a month ago. :-(

Well the only real way to know for sure if they work is to test them, preferably on a small scale. It seems like you've done thorough research and have put together a well thought out plan.

The only way to truly know for sure if something works is to simply test it out, preferably on a small scale before rolling the big guns out.

Let us know how it goes!

I've got a well-known bot running F/U/L (Not at the same time) and I have about 19k followers, but my engagement is absolute garbage (200ish likes/photo). It used to be very good, but suddenly dropped for a reason I don't understand. I have checked my hashtags, tried different bot settings etc, but nothing seems to work. Any tips how to get out of this "no engagement hole"?

Have you tried resting your account from actions at all?

Is there a maximum of hashtags that one can be in top post per account?

I've been tagging some really small tags last days thinking that it's better if my picture stays there long term but im not hitting top posts on anyone anymore.

This is tags who got like 100 posts in them where pictures average 10-20 likes when i got almost 2k and 40 comments.

Could it be some kind of shadowban? I like alot of pics manually.

Hashtag limit per post is 30 or 35? Someone double check me on that, so there is a maximum # of hashtags your account can be top for, probably somewhere in the single digits. The exact # I'm unsure of - when I post, I tend to stick with quality hashtags instead of quantity.

It sounds like it could be some type of 'shadowban' are you using a bot at all besides your manual likes?

Are you allowed to run 5 to 10 accounts on home IP without get banned?

Yes.

more than 3 is dangerous

Not necessarily.

Same thing happened with me also, one of my post got removed and after that suddenly new followers are 95% lost.(i mean not getting new followers at all) usually i get 400 to 800 daily.

What was it removed for? Was it "justifiably" removed? Instagram may have incurred some kind of growth/exposure penalty on the account(s).

Froger, I have FollowLiker , and Im going to do the "follow & unfollow method" but my compeitor has 80K followers and I want to follow his followers but instagram max following is 7K and I want to use FL to scrape his followers and follow and unfollow until i hit the 7K cap/ his 80K followers but once im done unfollowing and following how do I start over again the follow and unfollow method using followliker but i dont want followliker to follow the same people again ? you get what i mean ? what do i do?

There's an option when unfollowing to blacklist unfollowed users.

@froger is it possible to post us an example of a prelander and cloaked link in instagramm (random account), because this is something i cant really undestand how it is supposed to work.

Ask for a free sample from Valar - everything is explained and you'll get hands on experience with it.

What have you been banned from? I don't understand what exactly the problem is, could you post some screenshots please?

If you updated your Instagram recently then check perhaps you changed the camera permissions by mistake or your phone or some security app did it by itself.

Hi @froger I'm having trouble since the starting of November for going viral. My impressions and reach has decreased severely.
It all started when IG asked me to verify my phone number again and password reset.

Since then my impression and reach are about 1/10 I used to get before.
Any solution of this ?

Did you get any message or warning from Instagram?

Are you botting with the account?

following Action Blocked, like normal operation..


I got message "This action was blocked. Please try again later. We restrict certain content and actions to protect our community. Tell us if you think we made a mistake."
When following..

I use IG program.. How to fix that??

 

[Dresraz]

@Intexam i already cheked that, it happens on android phones too so its not permissions sadly, i can go live with any other account on the same phones i own btw

@froger no i dont bot at all, idk if it helps on a big account that much or if its worth the risk of being disabled again haha; i got a warning saying one of my posts was taken down after i finished a live stream, however i couldn't find the post, that live stream was me showing one of my phones so people could see my last posts and no music so i don't think i did something wrong, doesn't make sense at all.

 

[EQWheelz]

Have you tried resting your account from actions at all?

Yes. I had a break from bots for quite some time (Still kept the account manually active), started using one again about a month ago. I guess there is really no real "trick" to get the engagement back originally (without using Powerlikes/Engagement groups)?

Not at all.

But I have logged in with my account on 3-4 apps and websites to check detailed Insights and demographics of the followers.
In fact I was about to get a bot to automate my task very soon.

Does botting an account result in lower impressions and reach ?

That's been discussed a bunch already in this thread.

It sounds like they definitely banned that account from being able to start live streams, I guess you could try to contact Instagram support?

The trick would be to just mirror the actions that first brought in the desired level of engagement (without botting) or even increase the # of actions.

It all depends on how well you can use the bot and avoid getting any negative flags by Instagram.

Yes I was thinking about that only so there's no solution for it ?

You can use a cloak / pre lander to avoid this. It has been thoroughly discussed in this thread already.

 

[kavalerova]

Where do you buy your instagram accounts from?
