Hi all,
I've got a few questions I'm struggling to find answers for amongst all the pages and pages of useful info and journeys I have been reading at BHW. I figured I would post this thread and ask them and hopefully it will help myself and others with the answers.
Instagram Proxies are hella expensive! Are you using more than one account per proxy or 1-1?
I am intending to run 30 accounts (different niches) to begin with, aiming to get each one to 100k followers then look to monetise them through shoutouts, CPA, growing clients' accounts etc. However, if I run them through a bot they are likely to get shadow bans and therefore their engagement will be incredibly limited making them very difficult to monetise? Child method growth for 30 accounts is simply too expensive to do, however, and f/uf is by far the easiest and cheapest method to growing IG accounts.
I would also like to try the Child>Mother Account method as well, however, I don't have a lot of money to invest initially and the proxies which seem to be around $2.8 a pop, is going to cripple me without a ROI.
I initially created a few accounts (about 6-7) on my home IP, should I leave these without proxies as they are several years old now and all have a decent following 10-40k each (built up by botting) or am I better off safe than sorry?
I believe my initial accounts have all been shadow banned as the engagement doesn't seem to reflect the number of followers. Plus on one of my big accounts I am posting regularly again and I am losing followers on a daily basis.
How can you avoid getting accounts shadow banned when you are botting them?
If your accounts get shadow banned, is there any point in continuing to try and grow that account (especially if it has 10-40k followers) or just use it as a child account and forget about it?
To those of you who offer Instagram growth services; if you get your client's account shadow banned you have basically done more harm than good? You can grow their following but they will likely receive less engagement than before you started botting with it?
I was considering running several hundred accounts e.g. child/mother account method, however, I wasn't sure whether or not I needed a decent PC to run say 1000 IG accounts through a bot? I read somewhere that I would need a VPN as well?
Now with proxies at $2.8 and then potentially needing virtual numbers for PV, the price of a bot. It sounds like your initial costs are going to be through the roof unless you have some clients ready and willing to pay for growth services straight away 
TIA
