An acquaintance and I had a business idea that we wanted to use targeted marketing on Instagram to draw traffic and I am looking for advice to get started quickly. Wow so original.. I know. But our idea does have a unique twist to it related to fitness. Let me start by saying I have probably not clicked an AD in the past 10 years and rarely use Social media so I have no idea what is cool anymore.
We figured the best way to get the name out there is to start looking legit so we purchased a domain, made an Instagram/Facebook. We added the domain link in the Instagram profile and started following a bunch of people (about 800 in the first 2 days). The first couple posts we made we added the popular hashtags that the big fitness people have and got around 60 followers and around 20-30 likes per post. Then we noticed that we started getting 0 likes on our posts and I read this could be to being shadowbanned on a new account. My acquaintance decided to spend like $50 on some sort of Instagram promote post and we have been getting a few likes here and there but no traffic to the site and no followers. If we are shadowbanned, is there a way to get the account back to normal?
