Yo guys what's up.

I've been reading the same questions on the "Make Money" sections on this forum for quite some time, and I have also seen so many people fail or earn only little on Instagram. That's why I decided to open this thread.

I'll just open any of your questions openly. Any questions that would be a threat to my own ventures will not be answered of course, but I think I'm gonna answer most since I know the majority of your guys won't ever take actions on them anyway. Goal is to get a few users here going HARD!

So right now I am running close to 1000 accounts on 4 different servers. I'm already earning enough to make a nice living in my country (1st world country in central Europe), so I thought that I'm quite qualified.

Things I am currently doing

  • Growing Instagram accounts for clients and selling them
  • About 300 accounts for CPA (OGAds is the main network I am using)
  • About 100 accounts where I direct promote apps with publishers I've made custom deals
  • Promoting blogs through Instagram and monetize from there
  • I have a few clients for which I do Instagram growth services internationally
  • I have a couple adult accounts through which I am getting traffic for my Snapchat
What I am planning on doing:
  • Will start a digital agency focusing on local businesses in my country
  • Speed growing Insta accounts through Shoutouts, Powerlikes and Engagement groups
  • Dropshipping / E-Commerce products promotions through both free Instagram traffic as well as paid one
  • Flipping big Instagram accounts (100k-1mil followers)
Waiting for your questions!
The thread was inspired by @babs' thread (he's a friend of mine)

I rarely get any PVs, maybe 15 a month or so. I have real sim cards lying in my home, but sometimes I use online sim providers like hidemynumbers.com, however going with your personal sims is always the safer choice.

What are the requirements for doing this ? And I wish you more success in future.

Could you give more information about this? How do you find these publishers?

I use IPv6 proxies mostly self made.
I only use servers from hetzner.de

There are no requirements. You need to have goog quality accounts (Mine have 10-20% engagement rate) as well as willing buyers. And thanks, I wish you success too!

How long did it take for your first account to monetize?
Are you selling courses?

Actually my first account was a CPA account and it took me 1 day lol. It is still running today, making about 2$ per day on average lol. Can't believe it actually.
My growing accounts however took about 3 months before I started making money with them.
Nope sorry, I hate people selling courses and stuff. If they make so much money with their methods then why do they need to sell courses!?

Hi, actually I was quite lucky, one publisher just contacted me on one of my accounts, he was a solopreneur app developer. He has a decent app where a user's signup is worth quite much so I went and gave it a try. Turned out to work really well. There are a few websites that will give you direct app promotion links you can try out first, unfortunately I dont know any names right now

Surprised ipv6 still works. Do you get follow blocks from time to time, how do you deal with it?
Click to expand...
Yup they still do work, I don't even think that Instagram cares if it's ipv6 or ipv4 as long as you don't use too many accounts per subnet. With a /32 subnet you have thousands of /48 subnets. So theoretically you can just put one account per subnet easily. On my Spam accounts I get follow blocks from time to time, but I don't really care. if a specific niche gets too many follow blocks, I just add more accounts. Costs for an account is below 1$ and for a proxy only a few cents, so I don't really care about adding new accounts

Amazing,

The content on your instagrams, are they self created? Or reposted from other sources and do you always give credit and tag the original owner of the picture? (Don't know if this can lead to more exposure for the account which will lead to more likes/followers?)

Everything you know, all self-taught or watching videos?

2. Only on very few accounts it is self-created through Canva or Photoshop. Mostly I repost though, and credit I sometimes do give and sometimes don't, it really doesn't matter. For the content I got a programmer to make me a viral content finder. It only downloads post that had extraordinarily high engagement. The formula is a bit complicated.

3. Mostly self-taught, networking and from forums. Not really from a single video. Though the local agency I will start with the help of Tai Lopez' course, I found it somewhere for free. I know it's strange that I use a course even though I said I hated courses, but this one is an exception, it is really extraordinary well done.

what place can you recommend to get landing pages?
Click to expand...
I downloaded a few generic landingpages from ogads and Instagram pages and edit them manually depending on my niche. I bought one landingpage, but I am not too satisfied with that.
 
~Hey, I like your thread as you are helping people, great thing man.
I have this question that I asked Babs and he couldn't answer because he is doing something else.
Here is the question:
if I am planning to promote a blackhat niche say Clash Of Clans, Should I make accounts with the name of NICHE or a normal Boy/Girl's name, do you think it matters?

Best if you can show me a sample account, not yours obviously, any other on instagram so I can replicate

Regards.

Hi, I am only using niche related account names. Sometimes not the offer in it, but always niche related. So if I were promoting free kylie kit, my usernames would either be:
1: getfreekyliekitnow
2: makeupheaven

I never use other types of names, you need to get the users attentions after all.
https://www.instagram.com/freekyliemakeupkitt/ probably something like that as an example
 
Thank You very much for the quick reply, I appericiate it a lot.
last question and am ready to take off,
how would you run a freshly created account, from life to death, I am talking about a CPA account.
answer it briefly, what you do on day first and second day. I just want to know the routine of an account from Birth to Ban.

Regards

Yea, following by country isn't really effective at all for getting clicks
 
How you make proxies? Can you link tutorial or something?
