Hi,


About me:

I’m a 26 years old guy from Norway with no education. I have managed to get myself a decent job with a good salary($67000/year), but at the time I am on sick leave. I have been on sick leave for about seven months now and it’s getting boring. Luckily Norway has an excellent healthcare system that makes sure that I get the help that I need, and I also get my regular paycheck for 12 months while on sick leave. I feel the need to challenge myself more now that I have so much extra time, and that’s why I decided to start my Instagram journey with OGads.


My goal:

My goal is simply to run 200 Instagram accounts without getting too many bans. I don’t do this for the money, I do it for the challenge. Of course, most people on BlackHatWorld cares mostly about the money so to please you all we can set a goal for $50/day to start with. I will make sure to update the thread with both earnings and other progress.


Budget: Unlimited?


What I have done so far(Past 2-3 weeks):

-Upgraded MassPlanner to Premium plan - $20/month

-Purchased 100 proxies - $75/month

-Purchased hosting - $10/month

-Purchased 160 Instagram accounts

-Found four niches I wanted to test

-Bought domains

-Created a pre-landing page and landing page for each niche

-Burned thru 150 accounts while experimenting

-Bought 90 more accounts



I had the worst start of this journey; you can’t even imagine it! And I have still not given up, that’s why I feel comfortable to create this thread now. I won’t give up that easy.

1. Domain registration failed – Had to deal with customer support for a while

2. E-mail from Instagram legal department regarding a few domains

3. Cpanel for my host broke down – Customer support

4. All accounts got instant banned when adding a link – 150 accounts banned

5. 60 domains flagged by Instagram – Now trash

All 150 accounts did NOT get banned at the same time, that happend while I was experimenting for a couple of weeks. I finally found the right recipe on changing Instagram username, bio, remove name and add a link. PS. NEVER USE BIT.LY OR GOO.GL, that gives you so many problems.


This is my setup:

- 1 proxy/account

- 1 domain/account

- Domain -> Pre landing page -> Landing page



Current account status in MassPlanner:

-7 accounts almost on full speed with link(550 follows/day)

-3 accounts on warmup with link

-83 accounts with NO link on warmup


Not that impressive, but I have already made a little bit of money during the experimenting and warming up period.

To do list:
-Create a better LP for one of my niches
-Create a better PLP and LP for one of my niches
-Get more domains
-Get more IG accounts and proxies as soon as the first 100 accounts are running smoothly
-Start creating my own IG accounts(Already have a tool for that, but need fresh proxies)


I also have a side project running in MassPlanner. That is two accounts running fully automatic, posting 5-8 pictures a day. I will not add any link to these two accounts. I would only like to see how big I can grow two accounts while doing nothing at all. Both accounts started at 0 followers.

Stats so far(Day 3):

Account 1 on warmup: 122 followers

Account 2 on warmup: 135 followers


I don’t want to make this thread too long, so I'll stop it here. If there is anything you would like to know just ask, I will try to answer every question.

Good luck! The main struggle in this method is to keep your accounts live.

Btw what you put in your bio link now, direct link for the pre-lander or ?

Thanks!

Agree, that's why I thought this was a good challenge for me :)

I am currently using direct link since bit.ly and goo.gl links got my accounts banned straight away. I'll see if I can find another good shortener to use.
 
Keep grinding, good luck op !
 
I can definitely relate to this. You got a fierce spirit Norwegian buddy. Good luck!

Keep going. Good Luck:)

Thanks guys :)

no education and 67k/year... time to move to norway lel

Haha! That's about the average salary in Norway, so it's not that good. We are paying 36-40% in taxes and everything here is expensive as fuck, so I don't think it would be fair to compare it to let's say the US.

Small update:
-Added Google Analytics to all pre-landers and landing pages
-PV'd 20 of the 50 accounts I added yesterday
-5 of the new accounts got banned, I guess they got one of the proxies I have used before. I will make sure to swap out those with fresh ones before adding more accounts
-Getting 40 new accounts delivered today

Edit: Not 5 but 20 of the new accounts got banned!! MassPlanner raped me from behind.. I'm using the increase with x function and MP decided to increase the amount of follows with 70 on the first day of following!! Thats the reason for all the PV aswell.

iam not comparing to lets say US but Germany lol, we pay higher taxes and thats not minimum wage here at all q.q
 
What a bad start to the day... forget what I said in my last post..

37/50 new accounts got banned due to MassPlanner fuckup! Both the increase x amount of follows/day function AND the proxies failed me! Only 13 accounts survived.. Luckily I'm getting another 40 accounts today, so I'll start warming them up right away.
 
Does anyone know about an email client where I can add accounts in bulks? All the accounts are using the same pop and imap settings, so I just need to be able to add multiple email addresses and passwords from a excel file.
