I can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere, and I have faith in you masters/gurus here. I mean it!

I want to build at least 20+ fan pages on Instagram. And I want to do it all legitimately so to eliminate any or most of the risk of getting accounts banned.

I see people say 5 accounts per device all the time, but it's never clarified if that's the case even if you do not break any rules (Botting), or if it's because that's all instagram allows you to manage within their app at the "same time".

I've logged in more than 10 accounts on my phone, just switching an account in and out of my 5 account quick login menu. Logging out and in.

I've never had any problem, I even have 10+ accounts all on the same phone number. Is this safe? Can I manage 20 accounts from one device if I don't bot at all?

If not, what is the simplest way around this? I dont want to resort to buying a ton of phones, but I will if I have to. I already bought a tablet for another 5 accounts just in case.

Thank you so much for your time!
 
Does anyone know please. Thanks
 
Have you looked into not caring as much about the accounts and just buying new ones when they go down?
Software is out there that can auto post, edit profile pic, and description all within minutes.
 
People are loading 20-25 accounts on my mobile IP's just fine.

Well, i want to create actual niche pages. Not churn and burn accounts, if that's what you're referring to. If not, it just seems like botting in 2018/2019 is full of follow blocks and ban waves. Is it really that simple?

I want to create a network of pages and start a marketing agency. I'd love to use botting accounts to "feed" my accounts. But it just seems so complicated,

I hate to lose all my work because of some random update that you cant predict. Is there a strategy that im missing? Thanks for your reply

Does that mean I should be fine? Or are you saying I'd be fine with your mobile IPs? Thanks.
 
If you think 20 acounts is complicated your not ready to start a agency .

Botting is just a bunch of tests.

How do you test something? Just do it and hope for the best.

Don't risk more than 5 on a mobile IP and 1 resi or private .your clients are going to Pay 100s a month . You should not be cheap with this.
 
For agency I would go 1 on 1 IP or eventually 2 on 1 IP. More than that is just big risk if you ask me!
 
amd whats the reason you are not botting?
Thwy wh accs u wont have issues, + 20 accs is reqlly not a serious number you can bot them easily.

Botting is harder to prevent following spam. A big chunk of accounts will have lower engagement
 
if you're using them on your phone - can't you change the ip from time to time?
 
OP isn't talking about botting, so everyone here making suggestions as if hes botting, that doesn't apply.

OP is asking if he can log into multiple accounts (20 in this case) from one IP/Mobile and work on those accounts legit (no bot im guessing).

In my opinion, I think it's totally fine. I think the 5 accounts per IP rule only applies when you're doing something like botting to minimize risk and lessen the chance of showing up on instagrams radar. So since you are legit, then I see no reason why you can't have 20 accounts and login from the same IP/mobile.

There are a lot of businesses / agencies out there that do things legit, and I doubt they go around logging in with proxies / different ips for their client accounts. Just doesn't make any sense if you are 100% legit. Plus if you were using proxies and being legit, but something happened where the place you got the proxies from got hit in a mass wide range IP ban you could get targeted and you didn't do anything wrong. So I'd say there's probably more risk using proxies if you are legit.

Do I NEED to bot, to start an agency? Isn't it risky to run a clients page on a bot?

You run client's pages on bots?

Easily? Because im afraid of risking clients pages that are paying 100s to me.

Not sure what you mean here.

I'm unaware. Change what IP? The 4G IP my phone uses?

Thank god someone finally understands what I'm saying. I swear I write it out so carefully and still everyone wants to comment about botting. Maybe I need to work on my writing.

I've been wondering the exact same thing about the 5 accounts per IP rule, if its just for botting that is, i cant find it anywhere that Instagram doesnt allow more than 5 accounts. I dont mind spending a year building a legit network if it means, high engagement and no shadow bans/risk etc.

Thank you for your input!

I just want to grow or buy 20+ accounts, put them on my phone and grow manually.

That's fine as long as you dont spam a load of pics on every account everyday.

I was thinking at most 3 pics per account, per day.


By the way is anybody else doing this? Am I the only one, it always seems like it. I just hope one person who's doing this already or has experience can chime in.

Sure, well we also get paid 100s to grow clients accs, thats the point they pay you? So u can bot it and follow 1k ppl a day, and they get results, what do they pay you for then? To keep them on your phone?
Chance to ban wh account for botting is close to zero or in other terms there isnt any if you know what are you doing, Never lost a clients accounts for f/uf

So is botting f/uf pretty safe? Because if it is, then i don't mind getting into it.

Im not saying it's not worth it. I just don't want to have a conversation about their account being banned after they've paid me so much money.
 
The reason why people get banned on on IG is not because you're loading up 20 Instagrams on one Mobile IP. its because People are over lapping actions. If you're on your phone technically you cant like or follow on 5 to 10 accounts at the same time. You need to space them out. I hope that helps.
 
IPs should change if you place your phone in airplane mode for a while. Just make sure you give enough time for the carrier to assign that IP to someone else. Are you using AT&T?

EDIT: The IP lease times will differ from company to company

I post 200 Pics Per IG Account with 20 hashtags and Location a day just fine.

It's honestly not overlapping your actions with your other account that you're using the same proxy with.
 
You can only have 5 accounts per Instagram app on at one time. So yes, you can log out and switch from time to time if you wish.

I honestly think you're pretty safe if it's legit growth (no botting, f/uf, etc). I can't imagine any other way to have more than 5 accounts loaded without having more devices.
 
If you use 20 accounta in one device with same number or IP wouldn't it be pretty much risky as botting ? if they decide you have gone over the line there is a big chance all connected accounts get banned.
