The most cost-efficient: Follow/Unfollow, because you can just do it by yourself or hire a VA.
For Mother/Child you will need:
- Accounts (buy them or create them yourself)
- If you buy them, you need a way/pay to verify them
- VPS
- Automation tools like Jarvee
- Proxies (the more accounts, the more proxies)
...and most importantly: You must be mentally prepared that all your accounts/work will be gone within a second + action blocks.
If you just wanna grow 2-3 accounts, you can do it manually for free.

Very helpful thanks! I’m thinking more scale what do you think would be the best? Cost wise I guess. Even hiring a VA for F/U can be pricey.

F/U method, M/C take time and money more
Leaning towards that as well! The only problem is scaling this. Any ideas? What about when you have 100 accounts?

it's used because it protects your main account and your main stays safe
if you F/U on your main account there is still a small chance your account gets disabled, even though you're doing it manually.. you just need to know your limit

Follow unfollow from an army of child accounts that all point to the main one

its great idea man.
okay, so as long as you know the limit and stay within Instagram's rules everything should be fine then right no need for M/C method?
appreciate the comment.
good to know.
I think you're missing what I'm asking. We're talking about main accounts, not child accounts. It discusses using the f/U or child/mother method to grow an account. Yes, you would F/U on a child account.
you can do this on your phone manually.

OK, but you understand why you tier accounts with a M/C strategy, right?
I was making sure we are not forgetting anything, or maybe you had a secret strategy to move child accounts without F/U
Basically, M/C it's not about efficiency or cost, but to protect your main account from shadowbans or permabans. All the dirty job is done by the child accounts. Obviously, F/U will be always more effective straight on the main account and if followed with many other accounts much better and costly.
So basically, F/U on a mother account doesn't make sense, unless you know with 99% of certainty it will be wasted/reported anytime soon (i.e. illegal downloads, betting, porn or something like that) , so you would better go fast and furious from day 0.
M/C strategy started because the huge limitations on F/U that were imposed some years ago, made virtually impossible growing just with the F/U method. Back in 2015 I still remember with my Followliker, following like 1000 or 2000 accounts per day without issues and in Twitter it was like 5K or more. Completely absurd.
Why do you think it doesn't make sense? I've been doing F/U for years on accounts and never been blocked or banned.
