How many followers a day/week/month
How fast are your accounts growing

Hi. This is a tricky question. Actually depends a lot of your niche.
I’m going to give you an example based on my experience.
I have 2 IG accounts created for a business related to crypto activities (exchange, investment). The accounts were fresh ones and in 2 months I was able to grow one of them to almost 5k followers using organic growth, so no ads.
I have another business where I created and monetize AI girls.
Here it’s pretty easy to grow an IG account because the content that I’m posting reach a good engagement.
What I’m trying to say it’s that your question is too generic.
I mean look one of my IG accounts that I’m using for one of my AI girls generated over 150 million views last month, most of them (over 95%) came from the Reel section. On the other hand my IG that I’m using for my crypto business has reached 240.000+ views.
I’m talking about views because those means traffic, which increase the followers too.
So your question is too vague. You’ve to define your niche.

I usually see 10 to 30 followers a day on fresh pages if the content is consistent. Then one good Reel can suddenly bring a few hundred in a weekend. I care more about saves and shares though because fast follower growth with weak engagement rarely lasts.

Around 100 followers per week but I also do follow/unfollow.

if you are doing follow/unfollow or any kind of automation, keep it under 50 a day for the first month or you will just loop phone verifications and shadowbans. for organic reels... you might get 0 followers for two weeks then suddenly 1k overnight when one video hits. there is no real average anymore, the algorithm is too spiky nowadays.

Growth seems to vary a lot depending on the niche and consistency. I’m curious, what strategies have made the biggest difference for you recently? It would be helpful to compare what’s working across different types of accounts

Right now it changes a lot. Some weeks I get around 20 to 50 followers, and other weeks over 100. I focus on posting regularly instead of checking numbers every single day.

It varies, but on a healthy account I usually see around 10 to 20 followers a day, 70 to 200 a week, or 500 to 1,000+ a month. Consistency and content quality make a much bigger difference than posting more often.

the best way is posting viral reels. a friend of mine did 20k+ followers organically in 2-3 months. so focus on a certain niche, especially AI is hot as we all know and see what reels are performing well and copy that and give it your own spin
It varies by niche and content quality, but a healthy organic account might grow anywhere from 10–100 followers a day when starting out, while high-performing Reels can bring hundreds or even thousands in a short time. Consistency and engagement matter more than daily follower numbers.

If your channel has only 10-50 followers, that's quite reasonable.

Using Follow/Unfollow method and likes + good content and targeted groups; you should expect anywhere between 100-500 followers per month. Once again, this heavily depends on the users you are targeting and the quality of your content,

My followers are growing pretty slowly right now. I get around 10 to 20 followers a day often if I post regularly.

according to my mind, the worst mistake a person can make is to consider account growth by the number of followers per day. Some accounts have no activity at all during few weeks since they need to train the algorithm and know their audience better, but then, one or two high quality posts can totally shift the curve. I have noticed that it is better to care about the quality of the followers rather than about their quantity and rate.

It totally depends on how engaging content - reels I post and how often I post.

there is no magic number of followers that will guarantee success. the growth will depend on ur niche, strategy, frequency nd how u relate with ur folowers. in some cases the growth can be slow but create a solid community whereas in other cases there can be rapid growth but with no engagement. i would say that it is more important to attract the right followers than simply meetiing the daily numbers.
