Okay so after writing this out to update the post it was not posted as for some reason there’s a time limit on editing a post??! So here’s me writing all this out again.

and unfortunately it wont be on the actual thread op.



We all know there are easy ways to generate profit with ig, yes we can offer shoutouts and make a couple dollars for accounts with decent engagement rate and 10k+ followers, yes we can build accounts up to have 10k followers and sell them for around $50.



But with regard to automation and realistically this is the way most of us aim to generate leads as it makes it scalable, what I have recently found with the IG algorithm update is that there are now several issues. These issues mean that unless you use accounts 5yrs+ that have existing followers, using expensive proxys, and warm the account up for a month doing basically little to no actions. Then you will find your accounts blocked. Things have changed a lot since I wrote my guide on using massplanner around 4 years ago, and it seems now that it is not cost effective. I have tested various proxys and account ages but still find even after warm up that once a link is added the account is banned usually around 24hrs after.



Report / dm’s etc are also not operational on the accounts, in fact I currently run 52 accounts, and I have tested posting and dm’s on around 35 accs - when this happens no post is made but the acc requests sms pva - the issue with this is most online sms providers allow one use of the number, but ig saves this number to the account so when it asks to sms ova again your stuck without the number and loose the account. As I said before I have used various proxys and account ages but only one account is currently doing successful repost and this is one I created myself from my phone 3 years ago. After multiple case studies I am beginning to come to the conclusion the mouse has beat the cat at least for the time being until/if jarvee catchup.



The only thing I haven’t tried yet is mobile 3g/4g proxys but these are very expensive and again I find it hard to calculate cost efficient planning with these. Regarding alternative automation software: next post and velar are not cost effective at all! Gmt2 is the same as jarvee pretty much so the issues reside across both platforms.



So, feeling very demotivated after the last couple months of bans and link removals, I wanted to hear what your thoughts are.

p.s when did all the jerks arrive on BHW things seem to have changed a lot on here too, wanted to spark a good conversation but just got trolled.
 
sell a shout outs account for $50?


Try doing a good music instagram... you'll spend that on quality organic bathroom wipes, to feel better about the shit you're doing

What are your goals , is a better question:
1) how much money?
2) how much time do you have?

^ Work backwards and find your money this way

Shoutouts from a good account not the actual account, although that is also an option.

1. As much as possible
2. As long as it takes

Don't understand what you mean though can you clarify please

Account age isnt so big a factor
The recent update targets stolen accounts and account farms.

If you find a decent proxy provider and create your own accounts on your own proxy you will do fine.

Rather than analysing the statement, I hope for a more realistic subject related reply. Ig actively tries to prevent marketing

And still it's not stupid enough to bite the hand that feeds it. Celebs promote stuff and guys who sponsor them advertise their stuff greatly for we do know that the target audience of IG is mostly people that are ready to blindly follow trends they see.
 
Literally biggest platform for advertising, once you hit the right amount of organic followers you're on your way to making good money. You sound very much like a person who may have failed at understanding how IG works and what are its secrets.
