Yet Another IG Journey

[InstaBen]

Hello everyone,


Background
I am very new to Blackhatworld (1 month).
I first heard about the site 1.5 years ago when it was being negatively talked about in by a white-hat amazon affiliate discussion. Being naive I believed that everyone here were crooks and didn't find out I was wrong until recently. I am absorbing so much incredibly valuable information here and am very thankful to all who share their knowledge and IM journeys. I hope to do the same in the future but for now this journey will be a learning experience for me and will help to keep me accountable as I am a notorious procrastinator.


Plan
Grow 100 accounts and monetize through dropshipping + shoutouts.


Progress so far

• 9 Instagram accounts, of which 2 were banned today, a learning experience.
• Set up GMT2 licence
• Set up Hyonix VPS

To-do rest of week

• Set up proxies from mass proxy
• Potentially change VPS
• Create 3 accounts per day (9 total)

Any Advice?
My VPS (Hyonix $12/month 2 core, 4B RAM) was running well with 9 accounts but is it strong enough to handle 100 accounts?

Is Massproxy the best place to get proxies or would Instantproxies/other provider be better?
Would love feedback from experienced members.

Thanks for reading will reply to comments + update next Monday.

how do you create new account? with browser or android emulator?

 

[Tenebra23]

I really think you are going to need more RAM. Massproxy is perfect, never had a problem with their proxies

right now browser but I may switch to bluestacks if I run into problems.

I really think you are going to need more RAM. Massproxy is perfect, never had a problem with their proxies

Would 8GB be enough RAM?

[CaptainKorruptz]

Good luck 8gb should be more than enough for 100 accounts..

UPDATE 2

Goals for Last Week

• Set up proxies from mass proxy (DONE)

• Potentially change VPS (DONE)

• Create 3 accounts per day (9 total) (FAILED)

Last Week Explained
Bought the proxies from Massproxy no complaints, they look spammy but have worked fine so far.
Bought new vps from Hyonix (2 core, 8GB RAM) - Should be fine for 100+ accounts.
But unfortunately I fell short on account creation due to unseen setbacks. (Had accounts PV but I messed this up as I tried to use an US number from Getsmscode instead of a chinese one- dumb mistake but won't make it again- and this banned three accounts)

Plan Developed
The plan hasn't changed but I rushed it last week due to time constraints.
- Create 105 accounts
-3 Mega Niches E.G. (Pets, outdoor, movies, sports)
- Inside each mega niche have 5-7 mini niches e.g. (PETS --> Dogs,Cats,Guinea Pigs)
-For each mini-niche have 5-7 accounts e.g. (PETS --> 5 dog accounts, 5 horse accounts, 5 cat accounts ..etc)
-Monetize at 1000-2000 followers through drop shipping, shoutouts when the accounts reach 10k+

P/L July (so far)
Income
Dropshipping $0
Shout outs $0
TOTAL INC. $0

Expenditure
GMT2 licence $10
VPS $24
Proxies $26
PV $0.135
Shopify $29
TOTAL EXP. $89.135
TOTAL $(89.135)

Goals For This Week

• Create 15 Instagram Accounts
• Design Shopify Store Further
• Begin Niche T-Shirt Research

That's all till next Monday! Thanks for the support. I am happy to answer anyone's questions but I won't be able to reply till tomorrow.
