I'm relatively new here, but I wanted to share.

From time to time, I see people asking whether FollowLiker works. It does & the graphs below back that up.

I've had an IG account for about 4 years - photography only, just for fun. I started taking it seriously about a month ago. When I started, I had less than 40 followers - just friends & family who had followed me by way of Facebook.

I initially started trying to grow my account by hand - which, while working, proved to be incredibly time consuming & tedious.

Reading these boards, I decided to take the plunge & buy FL about 2 weeks ago. I'm very targeted in the photos & users I scrape. I try to avoid any tags with more than 500,000 posts & target users with ~10K followers.

The flat line below shows where I was at when I started a month ago. The gradual increase over 2 weeks was me growing by hand. The sharp increase after that was when I started using FL.

As of this morning, I have ~2700 followers & I'm growing by about 200 a day. I average about 30 lost per day - but the majority of them are guys like me :) Lots of followers & few followings.

I haven't used fl for instagram in a while so i really apperciate this post. Gotta get one of my accounts going again!
 
sure it works .. nobody is questioning that. nearly everybody here grows the account with bots.
 
What do you use to spin your comments? I have been trying to find a tool that spins comments

I actually don't spin my comments. I'm too fearful that something would go wrong with them. I've had a few spun comments on my own photos & it would be embarrassing :-)

I went through all of the comments I'd received on my photos & picked out the most generic ones. I tweaked a few here & there to make sure they were unique, have about 15 emoji comments but mostly text. I have a list of about 90 comments so far. I add & remove a few here & there.

Knock on wood, so far I haven't had any problems commenting. No bans or anything.

Yea just hope that the bot doesn't post the comment on a post relating to a terrorist attack :P

Yeah! LOL.

The tags I use to scrape photos are fairly targeted & generally have less than 500K posts - so there's very little spam & they are mostly on-topic. I wouldn't turn comments on if I were scraping stuff from #l4l, #f4f or anything with millions of posts. Probably too risky there.

Oh no I was using tags related to my niche(tattoos), but some genius had an idea to put a Eiffel Tower(Paris attack) tramp stamp on his butt.
 
I will never say that botting doesn't work, but you're limiting yourself with the bot. I was happy in the past as well with 200 a day, max achievable by botting.

Especially in photography 200 per day is actually nothing. I grow my account manually, 1k-2k per day, manual labour. When I look back to my bottingperiod.....wasted a shitload of time and engagement. I follow less than 50 accounts btw....so no follow/unfollow game here.

How in the world do you find the time to get 1k-2k a day manually? I was getting, at best, 50 - 60 / day liking & commenting on hundreds of photos. I just don't have time - I have a job & a family.

So, how precisely does this work?
