Buying social media accounts - best practices?

I want to buy a few (50-100) youtube channels, and manage them through a multi-login browser like multilogin or adspower.

What are the best practices? Can you still buy accounts and use them in 2026? So far my experience has been bad (getting banned within a day without even doing anything on the account).

What should i look for when buying accounts? What kind of proxies? Are the multilogin/adspower proxies good enough or should i look for other providers?

Thanks

you can buy and use them - remember using proxys
that fit the country the account is from .

Hey, in 2026 you can still buy and run 50-100 YouTube channels, but it's risky — Google’s detection is super sharp now, and many get banned fast if the setup doesn’t feel natural. Look for aged accounts (1-5+ years old) with real upload history, organic subs, and clean records that match your target GEO/niche. Always use high-quality residential sticky proxies (one dedicated per account, same location as the account). Multilogin or AdsPower work well for fingerprinting, but pair them with external premium residential proxies instead of just their built-ins for better survival. Warm up each profile slowly: watch videos, like/comment naturally for days before uploading. Start small and test. If you need reliable aged accounts that are properly farmed and less likely to trigger bans, I can hook you up with good ones.
I have a friend who has done this, and it seems quite troublesome. Can you tell me what resources you have now

Look for channels with clean history, real watch time, and no copyright strikes. Subscriber count matters less than actual engagement.

One thing help a lot. Ask the seller for the account's cookies file, not just the password. When you get it, import those cookies into your antidetect browser profile before you open YouTube.

The built-in proxies in antidetect browsers work, but I'd still get separate ones from a dedicated provider.

Most of the bans I've seen weren't really caused by the browser, but by low-quality accounts or changing IPs/fingerprints too fast. I use Gologin with a dedicated residential/mobile proxy per account and it's been much more stable than relying on built-in proxy options.
