I think it's a lot better to have the latter - be careful though, this is exactly what Instagram is looking for so you have to get cr3at1v.e!
I tried the ones that came with the accounts and had action block issues, so I bought these from BuyProxies.org.
Is there a proxy service that you would highly recommend to avoid action blocks?

Not a service but you might consider trying IPV4 / Residential proxies.
Have you tried resting the accounts?
Does your bot have a built-in timer to suspend actions after getting a block? (this is a common feature amongst the 'better' bots)
This is pretty good engagement ~ 25%
I'd continue to grow your account while trying to maintain or even increase the engagement %.
Good luck!

What do you mean exactly by "link" your accounts?

Put link in the link area. A bit.ly URL
Edit: Which directs the user to my LP

No, not necessarily. I've seen quite a few people get an error message when trying to add a link in their account saying that Instagram has prevented their link due to spam.
I'd just phone verify the account and move on as if nothing happened. I'd also make sure I'm not using the link on too many accounts ~ 5 is around the max I use.

Alright, thank you very much.
Another question. I am using the bot Jarvee with premium proxies from lineproxies. I have no problems following, commenting, or DMing. However liking gets blocked (liking users post after a follow). Like 90% of my accounts cannot like 1-3 posts of the user after a follow. It gets blocked very fast (either instantly or after 5-15 likes). Why does this happen?

This is Instagram's valiant effort at fighting back against the ruthless onslaught of automated robots and their dangerous likes (especially on IPV6 datacenter proxies).

I see. Thank you again
What would be the best place to get one of those residential proxies?
Yes, I've tried resting them. I'm using the GMT2 bot which automatically sets a 60 minutes rest after each action block.

I'm talking about resting your account for longer than 24 hours.
The best place to find anything is always the marketplace: https://www.blackhatworld.com/forums/proxies-for-sale.112
Will try that. Thanks!

@froger you are a god sent for this.
My first question is that I'm having trouble understanding some of the basic terminology covered here in addition to some of the monetization methods like, "like accounts". I read the introduction forums, but maybe I missed the definitions of these things?
I'm on page 7, but do I have permission to pm you with some specific questions for my non profit? I'm tempted to send you my entire strategy so far, but I promise to behave and only ask pointed questions.

Hi there!
Well to begin with, "like accounts" isn't really a general term used in the Instagram community nor is it used frequently. I think you may be confusing the term with another.
I'd advise you to ask all questions here in the thread unless it contains personal/sensitive information you do not want the public to see.

@froger like accounts was a typo. I meant Link accounts. Regarding the niche and marketing, I think our content pipelines have been set up fairly well because that was everything we were doing in 2017. At the present, we are trying to grow the accounts using the pipelines. Should I focus on growth without setting up the monetization strategies/experiments, or is that obscenely foolish?
Should I only focus on one account and use the data we receive to determine whether or not to branch out to an account per brand? We are an LGBTQ arts advocacy org with several different shows. I figure if I use one account for now, it'd be a good way of learning for less money.
Is it worth it to try a different social media platform for our video content? It seems extremely difficult to monetize with twitch and youtube. Automation is another concern of ours. We aren't a large non profit and utilizing automation is far better than hiring a dedicated person.

Hi, When you are choosing a page as your follow source, what characteristics do you take into account?
I personally consider these:
I always check and record the number of followers but am not still sure in which range I would get a better follow back ratio.
I consider Engagement rates for like and comment, but even this doesn't give me a solid criterion.
Also, do you think it is essential that follow source be in the same niche that I am promoting?
