6k theory and your business.

Hello guys,
If the 6k theory proves itself to be true (sooner or later we will all know for sure), what impact will it have on your business? Being able to only follow 200 people per day is very limiting, I think the only solution to gain more followers would be to get high quality sources.

Not really. You don't need to burn a lot of $ to optimize content and hashtags. Also, these limits are applicable for all users and botting might seem a bit more competitive. However, we can't tweak the limit IG has imposed.

I think that botting will become less profitable,
They limited automation so that the users will rely more on ads, they make all of their income from ads as you know, so if they limit organic traffic, more people will have to buy ads or their business will die.

Whats the 6k theory?

I don't think the 6k theory is true. Tons of people have accounts that are either working above that limit or below that limit and still experiencing blocks.

The general consensus is still rest, warm up, and make actions look as real as possible.

Yup, best thing to do rn I guess but the good news is that new accs can follow, but idk if they get blocks after a while or not.

Going above 6k/month without having any issues.

While IG seems to have lowered the limits, trust factor still plays a really big role in this.

Idk about the 6k theory but for some reasons my accs that were following 2-3k people at the time of the block can still follow, the others that had 0 to 1k followings were all hit with blocks and to this day they can't even do a single follow.

This month I'll start using 4g proxies and see what happens. Right now f blocks as everyone else.

The thing is most of the ppl out weren't botting proprely at all and IG has all the data that they are automating it, but didn't take actions against them until now.

Just because you were able to bot without getting any blocks/follows doesn't mean you were doing it right.

And I know lots of ppl beside me who are doing 6k/month and not having issues.

Instagram is always trying to find ways to increase revenue for their shareholders. Probably Instagram wants to earn more revenue from IG ads, but it is so difficult since IG decreases the reach after ad is being published, so the road is this:

1. Instagram is losing money due to follow/unfollow activities = less people are buying IG Ads
2. Just theory: Instagram is thinking how to increase revenue on IG Ads so they do the limit of 6k/month hoping that people will buy more IG Ads
3. Instagram usually decreases reach after you use IG ads (due to obvious reasons - to earn more money). So if that 6k limit is actually true = more people will be using IG ads = more people will be complaining about decreased reach or/and not good results after using IG Ads = Less people using ads because of the complains = less revenue for Instagram from IG Ads = more people trying to find other ways to grow accounts = more demand for growth services = more supply (more business offering IG growth services)

So 6k limit is not going to be good for Instagram if they are not planning to fix their IG Ads and offer us better reach and better results.
So 6k limit implementation without considering improving IG ads system is just going to be a big problem for Instagram.
