Epic Instagram + FL Journey To SOMEWHERE EPIC!!!

[PChanger]

UPDATE:​

(sorry if this is written a bit sloppily, I'm tired and about to go to bed.)

OK, so I changed the bio/username of every account I purchased. (so far I've purchased 30pva accounts and 5x6-month old pva accounts). Originally I was doing it on my phone, but after about 8 accounts, every account I logged into would need phone verification. Checked on follow liker and several other of my accounts needed phone verification too (like 7). I figured out that it was my phone (since I had done so many accounts with it) and stopped doing it that way. I installed a Google Chrome extension that let's you change your ip address and changed it to the ip address I plan on leaving each account running on in followliker. Not sure if that will keep them from needing phone verification or not, but we'll see. I'll know by tomorrow.

Also, I purchased an account with 1.6k followers this morning for like $6. They're all inactive, but it makes the account look a bit more legit right off the bat, so I figured it'd be worth it.

Accounts that currently aren't doing anything because they need phone verification:
7 new pva accounts (which I already filled bios and photos in for)
5 6-month old pva accounts
I'm STILL waiting for freaking SMSPVA to get back to me because their site isn't working at ALL! It's making me really annoyed. Haha! If they don't get back to me soon, I'll start downloading those "get a free phone number" apps like text plus and try to verify that way.

Also, I discovered the "FLC:username" function of follow liker which seems freaking useful. Not nearly as many people have been following me back with FollowLiker as they do when I use Instagress, and I think that might have been why. If you have FollowLiker, make sure to look it up. I think it's really going to help a LOT. I'll keep you updated.

Good Luck on your Journey!

Just a heads up some apps that give you a free # will not work for IG so be aware of that. If you ever get caught messing around with PVA or REPVA to much PM me I'll repva / pva some accs for you for free

UPDATE:​

So I got a few more followers on my accounts today than usual. (I keep being super unimpressed with my results, and then I remember that my accounts are only following 20-50ppl per day because they're new).

Anyway, after about a week of being super cautious, I have 3 accounts with 50 something followers, 3 with 40 followers, 6 with 30 followers, several with 20, and a ton with about 10.

Since it's been like a week I just bumped up all of them from following and unfollowing 20-50 people per day, to 45-75. Hopefully none of them will need phone verification, but we'll see.

Also, for some reason my 1.6k account didn't follow anyone today (even though it was supposed to). Maybe it's shadow banned? Idk. Would followliker tell me if an account was shadow banned, or would it just stop following until the ban went away?

Good luck man...I will follow the thread.

UPDATE:
​

Some big things happened today!

So I got home from work and starting messing with my Instagram accounts. Sometimes (because I have about 20 accounts in the same niche) I'll want to post the same pic on all of my accounts, so I had the bright idea <-----(sarcasm) to upload a pic from my computer to all of my accounts at once using FollowLiker. I wasn't planning on actually doing it anytime soon, I just wanted to set up another copy of FL with all of my accounts entered into it (yes I did it manually because I hadn't discovered the "import" button **facepalm**) so once I had them all entered I started tweaking the settings, grabbed a random image (so that it would let me set the image folder) and applied the settings to all.

The bot wasn't started, so all of my accounts said "n/a" rather than "ok" so I started it just for a second to make sure I had all of the login info entered correctly. I'm freaking brilliant. <-----(sarcasm).

Long story short, FollowLiker did what FollowLiker does, and immediately posted the exact same picture (of a lady working out) to all 20 of my accounts (which are in a completely unrelated niche) #awkward.

You can guess what happend next. Yep, that's right. 20 accounts needing phone verification. >_<

I pulled up smsPVA and messed with it for a bit AND STILL COULDN'T GET IT TO FREAKING WORK!!!! So I calmed down, took a breath, and pulled up TextPlus on BlueStacks.

I set up a new account, got a new phone number, and verified 2 accounts with it. Luckily it worked (I know some apps that give you a phone number like that don't work at all for IG verification). I signed into my 3rd account and figured "hey, what the heck. I'll try the same TextPlus number again. I think the limit is 2 account per phone, but maybe it'll work. Who knows." it worked. I was like "sweet!" and signed into my 4th account, and used the same phone number again. It worked. I tried it again with accounts 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, AND THE SAME PHONE NUMBER WORKED ON ALL OF THEM!!!!!!

My mind is completely blown. Did IG just remove their whole "you can only have 2 accounts per phone" thing? Because if so, that's AMAZING! The one thing I'm a bit concerned about now is that I have 20 accounts all with the same phone number on them. I wonder if that will get them banned faster? Who knows. I guess we'll see.

----------------------------------------------------------------------


Side note: 7 of my accounts (that I stupidly signed into all from my phone on a random ip address) have been saying "ERR" in FollowLiker for the past several days. I previously assumed that that meant that they needed phone verification, but after trying to sign into them today, instagram told me that "no account with that username exists". It was kinda weird, because it didn't give me the typical "this account has been deactivated, click here if you think we made a mistake", they're just gone. No idea what happened (luckily none of them were important and I'm smarter about how I mess with my accounts now). If anybody can explain to me what happend though, I'd appreciate it.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

HOW I SIGN INTO MY INSTAGRAM ACCOUNTS WITHOUT GETTING BANNED:

After some BHW research, I found that Instagram "tracks and flags your accounts using your Links/IP/Device ID/GUID"

Stole that from this thread: http://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/me...stagram-accounts-through-your-desktop.828334/

So I said to myself, "ok, how can I make those different for each instagram account".

This is what I came up with:

Links - I'm linking to YouTube, so I think I'll probably be good.
IP - Only accounts from proxies (the SwitchyOmega extension for Chrome is amazing)
Device ID - I couldn't figure out the BlueStacks tweaker method, so i decided to just use google chrome from my PC (idk if that will keep them from tracking my device ID or not).
GUID - Only use chrome in incognito mode (my mega-geek friend said that might work, but he wasn't sure).

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anyway, yeah, that's about it for today. I re-phone verified 20 accounts all from the same phone number, and discovered that 8 of my accounts (that I hadn't been using because I thought they needed PV) were mysteriously gone.

Give me your thoughts, and stay tuned.

Hey @PChanger
I'm doing similar thing. however with 20 accs.

Did sometime you get phone verification many times?

I was doing on smspva and after few minutes they ask again!

The funny thing it's just with 3 accs, the other 17 asked once and I'm following 400 per day right now.

Good luck on your journey!

Hmmm, nope this was the first time on all of them.

Thanks!

thats what I want to see by myself - a YT video and CPI Link below.

do you plan put 1 YT link to all your accs?

Yeah, all of my accounts are basically just directing ppl to my YouTube channel (not to make me money -- to make me famous). Haha! (I got from about 3k to 7k subs in about 9 months with 7 ig accounts running 24/7 following the followers of famous YouTubers.) I snuck into the VIP parties at Playlist Live Orlando 2016, and my goal is to get officially invited by 2017.

So yeah, all of the links in my bio are just direct links to my channel. I'm hoping it'll skyrocket my subscribers just as soon as I can start doing a decent amount of follows on each account.

(of course I have a bunch of other ig accounts in different niches too. No links on those yet though, I'm waiting until they get a bit older.)

Hi Luke!

I really like your journey and have been thinking about doing something similar. I just have a few questions that it'd be great if you could answer (sorry if they are noob questions, I'm really new):
1. Why do you have one version of FL just following and unfollowing and another version just posting? Can't you do them both on the same one?
2. How did you get 2 different versions of FL on your PC? (I feel like there's some really obvious way to duplicate them that I don't know of)
3. Are you running them on a VPS, if so what are the specs for it.
4. Are the proxies you got from Microleaves good and did you just get their dedicated proxies?

It'd be great if you could answer these questions since I'm a bit of a noob.

Thanks!

1: Because of the automation interval. On the version that I have following/liking I have the automation interval set at 1-2min (a.k.a. either follow, unfollow, or like stuff every 1-2min). and on the version that I have set to post pics, I have it set to 30-90min (a.k.a. post a new pic ever 30-90min until the daily number of images to post is reached). You COULD do both things from the same one, but it would post the pictures much more quickly (and I like to spread it out), plus its a lot simpler having 2 copies open. That way if I want to stop posting pics on all my accounts for a day, but keep liking everything (or vice versa) I can just stop whichever bot I want and let the other keep running.

2. You double click it once to open your first copy, and double click it a second time to open a second copy (just like how you can have as many copies of notepad open as you want).

3. No. I pretty much leave my computer on 24-7 anyway (because I'm a nerd ), so I haven't needed one yet.

4. So far they've been great! 1 out of my 10 proxies wasn't working, so I sent them an email and they had it fixed within a day. (Also, if you use the coupon code BHW25 you'll save a lot of money on your order because they're cool like that).

I'm a noob too! Just because I started a thread and have been updating it doesn't make me an expert. haha! So far everything has been going great though!

UPDATE:​

I had like 9, 1-week-old accounts with profile pics, usernames, a bio, and a link (because i'm just a crazy risk taker like that). I had had them following I think like 1-25 people per day just for the sake of having them do something other than sit. I wanted to upload about 12 pics to each account, and previously I would have done it manually, but I'm smarter now. (They're all in the same niche and I'm posting literally the exact same pics on each account). I opened up a new copy of followliker (i now have 4 copies that I keep permanently open. xD) and queued up 30 pics (30 looks more legit than 12) to auto-post at a rate of 1-5 per day. Then I just hit custom settings>replace on other accounts, hit start, and bam! All of my accounts will have all the pics I want on them in like a week or so.

One thing I'm slightly worried about is the fact that each account will have the EXACT same pics posted with the EXACT same captions, but, since I turned shuffle images on, they should all post at different times. Not sure if it will get some of the accounts banned or not, but we'll see. The first round of image posting went well. I'll keep you updated.

Also, one of my other accounts which I had been neglecting (posted 3 pics on it the first day, and nothing since) I just queued up with 291 (scraped) images. (If you link FL to the image folder, put in a caption, and don't specify any images, it will just grab random images from the folder and post them with the caption.) Kinda worried I might get a "repetitive content" ban because the caption will be the same, we'll see. ...actually now that I'm writing this I'm gonna see if I can go put in multiple captions without specifying an image to throw in a bit of variation and make it look a bit more human.

Also, I posted a new video on my YouTube channel yesterday. <----(literally 100% unrelated to Instagram, but it made all of my followers happy, so what the heck! I'm including it!)

But yeah, that's about it!

I'll let you know if anything else happens!

~Luke

Just made 11 variations of the photo caption, by switching around the order of the hashtags, deleting a hashtag or two, etc. I think that'll help a bit.

 

[PChanger]

UPDATE:​

Just updated my followliker settings on my first accounts from 25-75 follows and 50-100 likes to 45-100 follows and 65-150 likes, and on my second batch of accounts from 1-50 follows and 20-60 likes to 45-50 follows and 45-65 likes.

I know I'm probably going WAY slower than I need to, but I really just want to get these up to doing 500-600 follows and 1,000-1,200 likes per day and then I'm going to leave them there. I don't really need to push it, it'd just be easier to make more accounts than deal with bans (at least in this niche).

PChanger, it can be solved creating a global project.

So basically all accs on followliker will work together with same settings but following different people and uploading different photos to each account.

 

[PChanger]

UPDATE:​

Got 10 more accounts running today.

What I have currently:
36 accounts in the YouTube niche pointing to one Instagram account/YouTube channel.
7 accounts in various other niches.

all of the account I bumped up yesterday in FollowLiker are doing great! No bans or phone verification needed yet! I'm gonna bump them up again in a day or two.

I'm getting super excited, because if I can get all 36 of my accounts up to doing 500-600 follows per day (and 1000-1200 likes per day) I'm going to crush it!

I'll be doing 19,800 follows and 39,600 like every single day! That's insane! (super excited)

~Luke

Sidenote: If this ever actually works and my YouTube channel blows up, I'm TOTALLY writing a rap about how some people are born famous, some do amazing things, and I got famous with a bot and some proxies. xD
