52K Account - Need growth advice

[Blakereed]

Acquired an account at 35K followers.

Naturally it was gaining 300-500 new followers a day just from normal posting.

Once I hit 50K ( and new instagram algorithm kicked in ) my growth as dramatically decreased down to average 30-100 followers per day. Same posting schedule / same content.

I follow 0 accounts and never used a bot to gain followers. Now that I'm hitting a road block should I bot the account?

My engagement per photo is about 2000-8000 likes per photo. I have some videos that went viral and have up to 40,000 views on them.

What would you do?

Where are my IG pros at!?

i dont see problem of using a bot... its will give u a lot of extra followers... and for one account its really safe

Banned accounts could be a factor when losing followers.

Ugh.. My account is 53k followers also with 6% engagement purely built with hard work without any bots, but I'm not making anything lol. Probably your niche is better than mine, so keep working!

Should I do follow/unfollow or just likes?

I'm about the same engagement - have you tried Shoutcart? I have sold a few on there for $15 each and then also a couple other similar accounts DM'ed me for Shout outs and account boosting. Don't give up

people start to see that you are an ass**** by following no one and give you the credits for that. *just facts

Give it a try and do follow/unfollow. If your followers gain increased and you're doing well then keep doing it, if not maybe trying buying a shout-out.

BTW am not sure but many people say that you should stop botting when your account is big ( >50k).

Don't use bot just upload good content if possible use buy fake likes to boost post
