Hashtags

[JWASQ]

I have been running a dogs instagram on an aged account quite safely with low+medium settings. However the photos I post do not show up on the hashtags I use.

I only use up to 13 hashtags per photo. It’s not the proxy as I have tested this. I don’t believe any of hashtags are banned as I changed them and still do not work.

I used the same hashtags on several photos consecutively maybe that’s the issue, I did change them but that has not allowed them to show on search with hashtags

If you might have any ideas please let me know, if you would like to help me further and take a look at what I’ve been posting, PM me and I’ll show you my account

Cheers

I think not as I have 3 accounts in the dogs/cats niche, been using those SAME hashtags on like 1K posts overall.

What are your settings?

Anyone know of possible reasons why?

If you want I could look it up and see if they're showing up on my Instagram.

Might be shadowban or you account is flagged

I've been botting on low settings on safe proxy why would i be flagged, secondly how long does shadowban and/or flag last, also how do i check if this is the case?

 

[JWASQ]

Anyone?

Your account is either facing an ISG block / banning of some kind. Or you are making the post requests incorrectly (not you but the bot you are using). It is one or the other - most likely your account has been flagged.

With any block / ban / shadowing LEAVE IT ALONE for a few days. Usually these things pass in time.

Then REVIEW what you were doing and think about what YOU did to cause this (as that is 9/10 what happens).

How much were you doing?
How fast were you doing it
Were you doing too much at the same time?
Was the IP doing to much at the same time
Is your account / niche likely to generate complaints? (i.e. semi naked woman posts and perhaps you just interacted with the wrong profile who is not interested by that and is offended)


If you post with hashtag (or location assign your post) it should appear right away. I have just tested and this is the case (for testing purposes try a more obscure hashtag that doesn't get much traffic, not a hashtag that gets 1000s of posts per minute)

Best thing you can do is leave it alone for a few days and go back to it. Could be a super simple fix.
Some people have had this issue for months and use different tags on all posts though, so you may be shit out of luck.

Instagram themselves admitted that there was no such thing as an intentional "shadowban" on their part BUT there is a bug that stops people from showing up on hashtags. Now im not sure if that was bullshit or the truth, but it did come from an official interview with an IG rep. If that's the case, then theres no real answer on how to get around this.

I read somewhere else you were following like 98 ppl per hour... that's quite a LOT.. you're shadowbanned 100%. Don't touch it for couple days and try again

I run accounts on same settings as this, I’ll leave it alone for a couple days and see what happens
