Should you promote your instagram

[nejxis]

so the question is really simple, should you promote your instagram using fb adverts?

basically i have a 29k fb page of myself (i used the convert to page method like 6 months ago), and now i wanna get as much followers on IG and FB asap, but legit ones, as i am trying to monetize when i reach 100k fans or so (since i live in a small country, the highest IG fans in my country are in a profile around 30k only lol, and fb page for a person with 200k only xD)

I would unlikely follow a random person I saw on an ad but it depends on your interests, lifestyle and whether others can relate to you.

Nope, it's way better just to buy or get some AMF followers and just continue posting photos so you will start getting natural followers.

The best way I've found is posting new pictures, following the daily hashtags, and follow/unfollow a natural amount. This is of course with new accounts. Older, more established accounts have less limitations. You should start with some fake followers to have the accounts look more established.

try to post regularly new image and hashtags and try to follow niche interest people.

This is one of the most contributory members on BHW over the past 2-3 years, and someone who I feel always provides amazing information and feedback in-thread. I'd take him at his word on this point, and listen to the others saying there is no need to re-invent the wheel here.

Build some initial legitimacy with paid or AMF provided followers, and then start gaining those IG followers from real people using the methods and techniques freely spoken about within the IG section of the forum, and in journals, journeys, and method/model threads. The way to build a huge following is already well established here, and spending a bunch of money on FB ads is likely to lead to very poor results this way.
