Hello recently i saw a dogs account with a lot of followers i think at least 800k and the followings was in 1.8 million is this possible? So for 1500 followers account the limit is arount 8k followings? followers and followings are connected together? i knew that for twitter but for instagram? Can you tell me about this? :)
 
I have a few questions...
1. Suppose I use an aged pva account to follow and unfollow but I don't want those users to follow that specific account but another one (like when you delete an account, make a new one, and ask your followers to follow that the new one). How successful would this be to create an influencer account? Phrased in another way, how many of the people who see that account followed them will go on it and instead of following that account follow another one linked to it in the bio/most recent post?

2. If you have done this or something like it how many followers can you get per day (assuming the content is good and everything is appealing) when following under 600 people a day?

Thanks for your future response!
 
Hey DEADZ, i got 2 questions

1) How do I know which account are making me money? For example if I have 10 accounts in the same niche, they all use the same content locker therefore I only see the final earnings, without knowing which account made how much money.
2) You wrote earlier that 0.50$ per account should be considered good during these times. Is this because CPA became saturated? Do you think there is future in IG + CPA?

Thank you

1. You'd need to setup tracking + domain/subdomain/lp + locker in order to really keep track of that.
2. Not saturated. People are just really bad at targeting tbh. + in the past there wasn't so much problems with like tool and action blocks, so back then you could get away with bad targeting because you could still do more actions per day.

1. Depends on the person they'd end up following. This setup is called a "mother-slave" setup by the way. Where you use a bunch of slave/spam accounts to point to a main "mother" account. With good targeting, I would say 5-10% (based on average follow-back ratio being 15%-30% and average CTR being 30%.) So if you follow 1000, 150-300 would go to follow back usually and because they'd have to click to get to the main account that would be a 30% of that amount that would go through with the follow.

*based on my exp.

2. I'd say 5-10% of 600 if done well, so 30-60 follows on main per slave account.
 
I don't have the link but i remember it was on the dog niche sorry. One more question do you know any cheap software or free way to make a lot of instagram accounts at once?
 
how do i automate a instagram account to scrap posts automatically from facebook group/page or from instagram page and automatically post on my page? if scrap is possible and need to do manual check then i will do this but need an automation for scrapping posts images/videos and rest follow/unfollow, likes/comment i know other software will work :)

and also where do i get free stable proxies fro accounts? if possible o.O

These are all specific service based questions which I prefer not to answer to avoid getting problems and having my thread closed.

Thanks for the share.

No problem!
 
Hi @DEADZ and thank you for this AMA.

Today I created 4 IG accounts in niches that I'm personally interested in. My goal is to learn about content creation and social media management while growing out these accounts. I eventually plan to monetize all them with some type of product or service, and on the meta-level, open up my own social media management company.

Am I completely naive for thinking I can grow these accounts out organically with rich content, collaborating with influencers, doing interviews, etc.? Or do I HAVE to bot?

Will I be able grow in 2018 without supplementing them with botting? I really do not want ghost followers/useless followers.

My reasoning is that if I grow these out organically and monetize them, I can use them as my resume. They will look nice and I will come across as an authority, and it will be easy for me to close deals when I decide to pitch my SMM to potential clients.

Or should I just do bot arbitrage like some of these bullshit SMM companies that run their clients accounts on FollowLiker and charge them $300/mo?

What's the future of legit, engaged IG accounts?

Do this and you will rule IG in the future sir!

Legit & Engaged IG Accounts = The Future!



Everything is moving towards quality content marketing IMO.
Might take a few years for IG to get there 100%, but that's where it will end up eventually.

You're just ahead of the curve with your plan.

That being said. Botting still has it's place somewhere for you:

If you focus on Likes, Comments, DM's, Story Views, etc (on your own accounts followers + very niche specific hashtags) and not Follow & Unfollow methods. It will cause an organic growth, based on your content.
 
Okay i understand so can you tell me in, DM?

I re-read your questions.

Setup and IFTTT applet for reposting from FB to IG.

And free & stable proxies. I don't believe that's even possible but you can ask other people.
 
I know is about targeting but what do you believe is the 3 most saturated niches on instagram for cpa?

Thanks for the video. Only watched a little but I'm gonna listen to it all.

Questions:

1. Can you auto-watch peoples' Stories with a bot? Or do I have to click the first story manually through my phone and let it watch all my followers Stories?
2. Even if I bot my own account to comment/like my own followers, I could still run into the problem of liking an inappropriate post or commenting inauthentically ("sick!", "Great photo!")

Logically, it seems best to stay away from botting "personal shit" like likes, comments, DMs. Watching the stories seems ok. It's not shown to the public and it's a way for people to see me name and know I'm interested in them.

Or is botting just dumb for what I'm trying to do? Should I just go completely manual and talk to people organically, comment on their photos, stories, etc.?

Wow @DEADZ the video you posted here is absolute gold. He's been dropping gems the whole time... I'm 20% in:

"As long as you keep the goal of the platform in mind, and you market within those lines, you'll see good results."

I think a lot of people are resistant to change, especially if they've been hustling for years and finally got a working system and an update comes along and slices their reach/engagement in half.

It appears that marketing is no different than evolution. Those who develop the traits to survive, will survive. The lay of the land will change and you can never get too comfortable with a specific marketing system.

Is it realistic to be able to bot moderately with 100 or so accounts for a white-hat product and not get many or no bans (possibly even with mother-slave setup)? If I set it up with good proxies and have cloaker + prelander and I do everything correct, could I be able to keep up the accounts for say 6 months (some may be banned but atleast have a majority still alive)? Thanks for posting this thread btw

(I have done some insta + cpa, but it was adult which is unrealistic to not have a high ban-rate. I am trying to see how white-hat is different on ban-rate)

I don't believe in saturation at all.

1. Yes, some bots have this feature. The whole point of having a good bot is to automate the social accounts 100%. A good bot should be able to do everything you can do with a social platform manually, but then just automated.
2. That's true. In that case I wouldn't recommend it.

If you want to most control and quality results, I suggest you do it manually yes.

For whitehat I recommend:
Cloaking
1.com (brandy named domains like "noxonoc.com" for example) per 5 IG accounts. (Host cloaker files on these domains and keep your main domain safe)
Always use unique links for your accounts bio's..

I run about 650 accs (100's of them since 2016) at the moment. I don't have issues like most people (verification loops, mass bans, etc). You just need to know what you're doing.


What's the fatest way to make money with IG?

I'd like to quote myself to go over an important thing I learned by watching the full video:

It is important to build an email list and draw users to your own personal site so you can develop a foundation strong enough to resist the winds of the IM world. Platforms and policies will always change, but you can try to grow some strong roots to avoid becoming a victim of this change.
 
How could i create multiple accounts on IG using the same device? Is there any way to automate this process?
 
Hey.
I would like to hear your opinion about my idea.

1.
On spring / summer 2018, together with my girlfriend, we want to start a fashion IG accounts with our photos. We will probably also run a blog and post lookbooks, etc. In the future, we also want to cooperate with clothing brands - a photo with their clothes in exchange for clothes/money. Just a typical fashion instagram blogger. I came up with the idea to now make two accounts - 1 men's fashion and 2 - women's fashion and get followers on them, and then in a future - transform these accounts into our accounts on which we will posting our photos (we will change the account name and delete all previous photos). A good idea?

2.
Do you have any other ideas how to build a base for these two accounts before spring / summer?


I hope my post is understandable.
 
Hey DEADZ, thank you for all this sharing. I never did IG+CPA before and your posts just got me really interested in exploring it. Saw in another thread people asking for your ebook. Could you please also send it to me by PM? Thank you!
