guys are still there some social media agencies using the anti-detect browsers to build their social media accoutns and mange them or is the move right now to switch to mobile phones ? we're trying to fit into small scale but effecient for long term account living
social media automation with anti-detect browsers
- Thread starter anasbinti
- Start date
I see people talking about buying real phones, esspecially iphones and rnning them on box pharm, this introduce too many questions, like how many social media accounts they can get from a single phone in an X period of time, for anti-detect browser it's more measurable how you can go, but since i've never done it with real phones, i have no idea how it goes for them, i want to invest on real phones farm but i'm not sure if it's worth the hassle

for small scale the browser is not really what kills accounts, its the proxy and the behaviour. i keep aged accounts running on antidetect profiles for years, one profile one clean mobile proxy, never rotate the ip under a profile and they stay alive. phone farms mostly pay off at registration volume, thats where device history is the bottleneck not the fingerprint. if your staying small put the money into proxies not iphones
this is informative actually, i was thinking like this too, do you suggest building automations for this or just building accounts with VAs because at scale i think you need a team to manage the accounts, you can't do it alone

On your VA vs automation question: at small scale, VAs with a simple checklist usually keep accounts alive longer, because the behaviour looks human by default. Automate what doesn't touch the platform content scheduling prep, captions, reporting and keep logins and engagement manual until you know which accounts are stable. And same profile, same sticky IP, same timezone every session, never log one account in from two setups.

Which social media accounts are you running and how many accounts per proxy?

What here means scal esmall with US proxy and antidetect browser? Not get 100k views within one month from your daily reels/shorts or somewhat? I agree have only 1 profile on Tiktok, IG and FB and login on your PC with adspower browser only on that PC one session, upload your reels, close the browser. Then restart it again and use the next platform, each browser seassion only 1 platform.
Slow start warm up I agree: the forst 3 days on all platforms example US traffic follow 5-6US influencers a day maybe make 2-3 comments , then shoot your reels up every day. Not forget to post at the right timezone where your audience is online.

I recently spoke with someone who uses Octo Browser (not an ad); choose proxies based on your specific needs.

Yes proxies are super important and you need to have dedicated proxies as well.

As social media platforms rely more and more on mobile environment, especially tiktok and instagram, switching to mobile phone is the trend. But if you wanna scale your social operation or manage multiple accounts already, an independent mobile environment and dedicated proxy for each account are what you need for the long term.
I think both still have their place, depending on the scale and the platform. Anti-detect browsers are more convenient for managing multiple accounts from one setup, while phones can be useful for normal day-to-day activity. If you're aiming for long-term account stability, I'd focus more on following each platform's rules and keeping account activity consistent rather than relying on the device alone.

Now anti-detect browsers are mostly for web-heavy platforms (FB, Reddit, or Pinterest). Tiktok, IG, or Snapchat want mobile signals, and emulators always get flagged. I would try cloud phones for these platforms. For a real phone, factory resetting doesn't change the IMEI or the hardware fingerprint

Phones are way better for long term survival if you can afford the hardware, but for small scale it's a pain to manage. A lot of agencies just stick with GoLogin and clean residential proxies because you can scale it without buying a hundred phones, it just takes a bit more effort to keep the accounts alive.

if you're starting small i wouldn't invest in a phone farm yet. managing 5 accounts and managing 50 physical phones are completely different jobs. i'd first figure out which features you actually need from real devices, because the hardware, cables and maintenance can become a bigger headache than the accounts themselves.

I think some agencies still use antidetect browsers to manage multiple accounts but mobile devices are also becoming common. Personally i feel the bigger focus should be on account quality, genuine activity and following platform rules rather than just the device being used. For long term stability then i would prioritize fewer and well maintained accounts over managing too many accounts at once.
but if I were to act on a smaller scale, I would choose antidetect profile instead of phone farms from the start. It is easy to deal with, but what is more imprtant here is the history nd activities of the accounts rather than the method you use. phone farm make sense when there are multiple acounts to manage.

Yes, the gadget is just part of the overall equation. Account history, constant usage, and lack of suspicious actions play an important role in the process. I would prefer to have several good accounts than to worry about lots of problematic ones.
