Journey from 0 to 50k - newbie -

Consistency is key man, just like in the gym, if you quit for a couple of weeks/months, you lose momentum and strength and must build it again.

Keep focused and the rewards will come. Keep us updated.
 
Ok today was (is) sickening.

+1704f

One of my posts today appeared in 141M and 190M hashtags gaining lots of visibility = likes + followers.
Yesterday's post with 2500 likes is just now at 5098 and another one with 5609. Top post today 4578 likes.

Stopped using Instagress, no botting.

Account is just now at 6.1k

Hope to keep it up but I know this won't last at this rhythm!

Thanks for helping.
 
Thanks everyone for helping!

I started a thread today with one "problem": (can't post the link, please go to main forum).

Also just in order to keep this thread updated I bought an account 2 days ago (animals niche) with 26k.

Today's results:

+1750f

Did some s4s and one (first one) paid shoutout just an hour ago (with this account, travel-nature). People are starting to ask me through DM s4s and paid shoutouts as a result of viewing my pics in top hashtags. Someone in this forum also asked about it in private and this leads me to register in three different selling shoutout webpages but not with travel-nature but with animal account. When my travel-nature will have >20k I will add it also but it's obvius I can't add a 8k account to a shoutout webpage.

This is kind of rare, with just 8k and people with 120k doing me sfs and asking me if I want a free shoutout in any other account I have.

On the other hand, I was expecting a little more. I mean...today was a busy day in terms of talking with many people, trying to get deals and whatever but so many others (the most) didn't say anything when I'm presenting myself.

Time. I guess.

Thanks!

Note: This week's goal will be massacred. (+1,5k in one week, just what I am having daily now).

heyman, can you give a newby a small guide on how to find and use hashtags to drive more likes and followers? i am very new to instagram
 
Good luck on your journey!

Try to improve the format of your updates, they're somehow hard to read.
 
You really have great numbers for a week-old account. May I ask what niche are you in?

Also, I thought it wasn't good for new blogs to use super competitive hashtags since there's basically no way you are going to be in the top posts. :o

Will be following your journey!!
Good luck
 
Are you unfollowing manually now? How many unfollows are you doing per day and per hour? Never following and unfollowing on the same days right?

I use toptags app + see what my competitors use in their pics, so it's a mix of them. Always 30 and never in the first caption but in the second comment just after posted.

Good luck on your journey!

100% agree. Sorry for that. I don't know how to edit first post, maybe I need some more posts or I am a fool, who knows. If you can give me a hint...

Nice, sounds interesting. Good luck!

Thanks sir.

Well it's almost 3 weeks now and the one I bought almost 3 months. Niche nature-travel and animals. Yup I also thought this about hashtags, actually I use more or less 20 "medium" hashtags (let's say with more or less between 1M and 5M) and 7-10 top (the most ones).

Thanks for supporting :)

Nope, now only organically thanks to lots of likes + sfs
Before I was botting with Instagress and yes, did follow/unf same day without any problem (following with Instagress and unf with Crowdfire or unf with Instagress and follow manually).
 
Nice journey.
Keep it up.

1) Can you share your instagress settings for a new account ?
2) How many pics you post a day? And what time ?

Good luck
 
find below my suggestions

Nice journey.
Keep it up.

1) Can you share your instagress settings for a new account ?

I don't know exactly but fast mode, doing followings to some niche competitors account (their followers) getting some good followback ratio and also liking and commenting depending on the day or moment.

2) How many pics you post a day? And what time ?

Wanted to post just 2 or up to 3 daily but realized my account worked better with one pic every 4h from 8am to 11pm, so from 4 to 5 daily.

Good luck
 
Hi,

* +984 followers.

* Post my first paid shoutout which actually has the less likes of the latest 10 or 15 posts (niche doesn't fit at all). Also posted 4 other s4s. The other pics worked well, nothing special.

* On the other account I'm continuing with the s4s. Tomorrow I have scheduled in total (both accounts) 2 s4s.

* Got an offer for the other account (28k, growing from 400 to 600 daily, averaging 1 to 3k likes), refused.


Thanks.
 
Hi,

+710 followers.

Nothing special today. Two sfs and letting the account grow by it's likes, which I have to say are going down slowly and so the followers does. Maybe I'm no longer in the spike!

Changed (for tomorrow and so on) time posting, I am gonna skip the first one on the morning, let's see how it works.

PD: I guess tomorrow I will reach 10k followers.

Thanks!
 
Hi,

I can't remember where I read it but today with just 400 likes in more or less 70 or 75' I was in #nature hashtag featured.

Someone was telling that you need >2000 likes in order to be featured, and that's why I am telling this. Also featured in #sky with same pic which has more or less 120M (nature 190M).

In terms of followers today it's gonna be "normal" (taking into account this latest days), I expect to be at +850/950. I calculate the difference from 00:00 to 00:00 so I have more hours to keep growing, just now I'm at +750 aprox.
 
Nice! Glad to see you're still at it!

Much appreciated dude!

___________________

Ok another post from this afternoon ranked at #nature for a while, this one when I checked the hashtag was at 335 likes in more or less 45'.

At the end today I win +1k followers. Let's see how the weekend works, here people change schedules (and so do I) but I'll try not to change time posting.

Have a nice weekend!
