Instagress-Should I use it?

[Azt3c]

About my IG account::

I made an instagram account on Jan 30 ,2017 and as of right now it has 75 real followers and only 10 posts. I'm following 0 users.

I gained my first XX followers using hashtags effectively and then I started to follow/unfollow a 100 users who have recently liked pics in my niche. (manually)

So should I use Instagress now? Personally ,I'm very happy with my growth as I wasn't expecting it at all.

I gained most of my followers with hashtags and not with the follow /unfollow method.

Before my plan was to grow the account manually for one month and then use a bot but I feel like I should speed up the process.

What do you guys think? I need some tips/points from experienced IG'ers.

@IGKing What do you think?
(I tagged you cause you seem to have a good reputation on BHW when it comes to IG)

P.S The niche is something I'm passionate about so I'm not bored with it. This is NOT a churn and burn account.

You should buy IGKing's eBook. It's very good.

Why would you use Instagress over MassPlanner or even FollowLiker?

@JakeRenner Gramous right? I saw the thread ,I simply don't have the money to buy anything right now .I'm trying to use IG to make some money ,so that I can invest it in a few other things.

Isn't instagress the best and most safe bot out there for IG? Plus the other ones are paid bots. With instagress I can at least use it for 3 days to test it out and take the most out of it .

I use it for my new business, 10K followers in 2 months, slow but growing, for something that I don't have to put any effort into, it's great, although careful with the settings.

10k in 2 months? Wow ,impressive! So its definitely better than growing your account manually right? Are there not any downsides to using it? @iBrazilian

I am using Massplanner for a long time. Tools don't matter that much as long as you know how to use them.

You should use a tool since it saves you a lot of time.

Yes you can go with Instagress..and try to be active with your post and likes..You can public your ID and promote your ID on other social sites..

If you are satisfied with growing your account the way you're doing now, then I say keep doing whatever you're doing. If this is an account you are passionate about; and you enjoy doing it, then why risk the ban automating?

However, assuming you don't want to spend 5+ hours a day doing manual labor, then correctly automating can be a time saver. There are plenty of resources on this forum that can point you in the right direction.

By the way, MassPlanner has a 5 day free trial. If you plan on running it on your own PC with only one account, then you don't need to buy proxies or a VPS. I prefer MassPlanner over FollowLiker and Instagress, but that's only because I know how to use it rather efficiently. The average person on this forum is probably indifferent on which software is best - you'll get a lot of different suggestions.

I personally don't think it's that great, but for my niche it's not the worse.

I just purchased 1 year of instagress yesterday for like, $80.

By then I should have at least 100K, I'll have outgrown my competitors that's been around for over 5 years.

There aren't any downsides really, I definitely went through with the settings to best fit my niche, and I just like, follow and unfollow.

I like Instagress. I use it for one account. The few $ is no big deal. It's very easy to manage right on my phone. If you are running one account, I think it's great.

Massplanner is the best in my opinion ! If you run more than 2 account instagress is bad.

Interesting. I Have used the 3 day trial with instagress and I was quite happy with it, everything is very neat and intuitive, but it does seem to be hard/expensive if you want to use it for several accounts.
It seems Massplanner is more expensive than Followliker overall, so I'm yet to understand the feature differences.

Crossed a 100 followers!

@IGKing sorry for the late reply,I was too busy.

I'm passionate about it,so I think I will continue growing my account manually just like how I am doing it right now till March.

Then I will probably automate it.

5 days trial? That's nice ,I am gonna try out all 3 and see which suits me the best.

Thanks for taking your time to reply!And thanks for telling me about the 5 day trial w/ massplanner!

@tbdrogue how many followers were you able to get within those 3 days?

@tbdrogue how many followers were you able to get within those 3 days?

I started the first day immediately with normal settings (not slow as recommended), because it was an account I was growing manually already actively. Then on the two last days switched to a speed between fast and normal. Only liking and f/u, no commenting. Those 3 days got me 170 new nicely targeted followers.

I'm using followliker for 1 account, in a very small niche i managed to get 10k followers in 3 months with very light settings.
IMO followliker is nice, maybe massplaner better but i chose it because it has no time limit. I bought a lifetime for 1 account (costs somth like 59$) and im satisfied. Very easy to use btw.

Wow that's good! @tbdrogue
I think its better not to set comments IMO. Sometimes the comments makes no sense,I found a user commenting the same thing on 2 of my pics ..the comment wasn't even related to my pic ._. Kinda

Hi! I have an account which I used to have managed by VA's from Upwork. But content posted late, excuses etc. I giver Instagress for my one account a try. Slow settings, A schedule with 12 hours a day and kiek and follow and unfollow should be more or less safe I guess
