Don't always target your 'direct' niche

Just wanted to share a small experience of mine concerning who to follow when doing the followback method.

I started a pubg Instagram account a few days ago, and I started out with my bot targetting the followers of bigger pubg accounts. I got like 40 followers a day which I thought was okay for a beginner.

Then for an experiment I started targetting CSGO players because a lot of them were converting to PUBG, once I started targetting those players I got almost double the number of followers per day! Now I'm getting around 70+ followers per day!

no idea which players you are talking about but congrats
it makes perfectly sense ... if you have related niches.

Nice tip OP!! That's given me an idea for my IG account

Damn! Now everyone is going to be doing it!

Well games are gamers bro! Almost every csgo player knows what pubg is. But i will not totally agree with what you say. Sometimes two niches aren't much related to each other!

Great thinking. Try targeting blizzard games as well. I know many people from WoW that went to PUBG and left wow or dota or league or overwatch...
