Hello,
i'm going to buy a software to create several IG accounts. After that, i'll need to buy proxies to make my bot works with the new accounts.
Are proxy locations important?

EXAMPLE:
- The IG account is created using a German proxy
- I use that account on my bot multiple times using a Spanish proxy
> Is that a problem? Does IG can block the account?

Thank you :)
 
It certainly doesn't help. It may or may not block you, but it's riskier for sure. IG doesn't like sudden drastic changes. Why not stick to the same proxy?

You can use the same proxy to create several accounts without issue. If you're planning to create accounts "in mass", then it won't be enough.

So, the best thing to do is using the same proxy for creating and using that specific account, right?
Do you think it's possible to use a single proxy for multiple accounts? If yes, how many accounts? Every account should post about 10 comments per day, nothing more.

Yes, that's the best.

The official apps allow you to manage 5 accounts at once. Going beyond that is probably trouble.
A lot of account providers/sellers recommend 2-3 accounts per proxy at most, 1 account per 1 proxy is still the best according to them.
It is possible to use one proxy per multiple accounts, but if you get an action block/ban on one, expect the rest to go.

Great. Do you know any good proxies sellers? I took a look in the sellers Forum section, and it's plenty of opportunities...do you know which are the best?

On a side note, many accounts/proxy providers don't really know the limits, as most of them only create accounts and don't run a lot of them at the same time.

So, keep yourself testing things out :)

I'll keep testing for sure :)
Could you suggest me a good proxy provider? I'd like to start with 20 proxies. In the Marketplace sections it's plenty of services but lots of them seem very old.

In this industry, the proxies which are actually working are the proxies that aren't recommended - By that, I mean that if you can publicly read that X proxy provider has awesome proxies, it means that probably hundreds (or more) have read the same thing.

Instead of trying to analyze which proxies are working well, you should go for free trials with 5-10 of them and compare which is the one that is working the best for you. Once more, the best proxies are the ones that no one use and hence, no one recommend :)

Well, seems like my fears were true! Thank you again for your advices!

Yep. Geolocation is one of their primary security checks.
 
It is ok if the IPs come from the same country (for example Germany)? Or they have to be from the same exact location (region)?

It's OK if they come from the same country. Well TBH it depends, they can ban you for any reason so no guarantees even in the same house LOL.

Proxy locations are definitely important. If you, for example, created an account with a Germany proxy, you need to run that account using the same proxy (location) you opened it with. If you try to use a different IP address, belonging to a different location (say spain), IG will consider this as a suspicious activity and flag your account if you fail to pass verification procedures.
 
Geolocation is highly important. However, I doubt that anything will happen after a couple of times. Just be sure to be consistent with your proxies in the future.
 
It depends. It's better to use from a single location. But if you have created them in Spain and then used them only with German Proxies, there should be nothing to worry about. It's not that good switching between IPs because that will raise a flag for sure.
It's simple. If you create them with one IP then use them only with that proxy from another country, you should have no problems, at least in the long run, maybe at the beginning you'll have some small issues.
 
In my opinion, if u want long term acc then choose proxy from same geo.

Do you happen to know the geolocation database footlocker looks at for IPs?

Hi! You are clearly going to create more than a couple of accounts, for this you certainly need to change the proxy, otherwise you will be banned. As for geolocation, it's like luck, but it's an important thing for security checks.
