IG NEW UPDATE [GHOSTING]

Katte said:
To those who experience drop in followback ratio:

Maybe the reason is that you are losing followers. So the followback ratio would be flat but the number of new followers you see is smaller because of increased unfollowers?
I guess that may be the possible reason because many users started losing small number of followers day by day. Anyone can confirm?

Can confirm that ghosting is true.
Used some follow tracker to see who are my new followers, apparently there're some accounts looking spammy just started following me 2 minutes ago.
But checked it again on my instagram app, they don't appear on my notification at all.

Your approach is definitely correct in terms of white hat marketing. Let me quote an example, a very popular dating site have been spammed with IG and Snapchat profile link of late promoting dating CPA offers. Cost of marketing is significantly lower as ban rate is lower. Think along this line and you shall see why IG profile are used.

Hmm, that's a pretty good idea - not only is it a buffer that is needed anyways in most cases but it also acts as a social proof/"pre-sell".
 
Ghosted people, which bot did you use? Were your settings aggresive?

I'm botting my main account very slowly on instazood or gramdominator (100-200 f/uf day) while learning instadub on a dummy account. i'm planning to move to instadub once i learn it.
 
Guys, IG is doubling-down on spam/bot accounts. There are millions of bots on IG. Many of these bots follow you. Once they are taken off the system, you lose "followers".

As long as you're not following/unfollowing thousands a day, you should not have any problems. The bot that you're using is not the problem. Your settings are the problem.
Slow down, less actions per minute/hour are best. Make your bot look human, don't make the human look like a bot.

I asked about bot because for example instadub has more "human" settings like fluctuation of actions etc. while instazood does round numbers which looks more like a machine.
 
Need advice on my account asap please. Had a personal account with 20k followers that I earned myself, then did f/un and got to 40k. Had great engagement. (thousands of likes, hundreds of comments)

But suddenly all my engagement stopped on a photo i posted a week ago, got 200 likes and only 2-3 comments, tested it again, same low engagement,

So I stopped f/un for the whole week, but nothing's changed so far...
 
Wouldn't it be a beatch if Instagram is slowing down engagement on all accounts, just to see which ones stop actions altogether, then they'll know which ones are using bots!

Hmm... do you mean targeted monitoring or overall? A lot of innocent normal accounts would get wrongly punished due to inactivity if the latter.

innocent accounts are getting punished with shadowbans nowadays so that wouldn't be a surprise for me ;)
