For many of us in this space, the biggest challenge we face is this: whether to buy accounts or create our own.

I’ll explain my experience in detail and share my conclusion. I’ve spent thousands of dollars on purchased accounts, and the truth is that the ban rate ranges from 30% to 70%, depending on the provider. "Aged" accounts, in particular, often have high ban rates—especially those from Turkey, Thailand, India, or other countries with massive bot activity.

So, months ago, I started creating my own accounts for personal use, and it was the best decision ever. The ban rate is only 10–20%, even though they are new. Beyond the security of being the only one with the login credentials, they last longer—likely because Instagram trusts them more or because they haven't been flagged previously. So, if you can create your own accounts, do it. If you lack the software or alternatives, buying them is an option, but creating them yourself is undoubtedly the only way to scale.
 
Do you create new accounts from single phone using proxies?
 
Same here. The accounts I make myself almost always do better than the ones I buy. It takes more work at the start, but it's worth it in the long run.
 
I have seen this trend as well While purchased accounts may appear to be more appealing at first glance, previous behavior and history tend to make them far more unstable. With the lower chances of bans involved, the extra effort is usually worthwhile when building up your own account
 
Purchasing an account anyways never made sense to me since the beginning, You dont have quality control, you dont have clarity on how the accounts were created, whether it was warmed up or not, how long the accounts were inactive for, just doesnt make sense at all in overall perspective.
 
How do you guys create alot of instagram accounts? I have jailbroken iphone with crane, with proxies, but after 2 accounts I keep getting human selfie verification, what am I doing wrong?

How do you create them though? Are you using proxies with anti detect browsers, regular phones, something else that I am missing?
 
Old accounts come with good followership, good online presence, some even have even gained some authority. Yet with all these, you are never told how many bans it has suffered plus other bargages. The actual owner may still have a backdoor somewhere granting them access. It's high risk yet people rush 'em like........
 
The 30–70% ban rate is a pretty wide range. In your experience, was the account age the biggest factor, or did the provider/source make a bigger difference?
 
This somewhat validates what the provider of my Instagram automator service told me.

I'd be also curious how to create these though.
As far as I remember one can run up to 4 legit accounts per device without a proxy.

Do you create accounts using multiple devices + mobile proxies?
 
What I personally observed is creating accounts in house is way way better than buying accounts. We do not know how the accounts were created when we purchase, what kind of setup was used, what kind of proxies and it completely feels out of control.

When you create accounts, You choose everything and control the quality. From the type of Email, to proxies, to the setup and even the warmup period.
 
La tasa de bloqueo del 30 al 70 % es bastante amplia. En tu experiencia, ¿la antigüedad de la cuenta fue el factor más importante, o el proveedor/fuente influyó más?
If new accounts are warmed up correctly, they don't get banned; I’ve tested this with hundreds of thousands of accounts. Account age is not a factor that matters.

A magician doesn't reveal his tricks, but if it involves a game of proxies and devices...
