Instagram still viable?

I'm wondering if I'll still be able to make a bit of money with instagram? Can anyone direct me to some links that ARENT outdated? Thanks

Despite the difficult times for instagrams, you can still earn money. It just takes a lot of zeal and patience. And also have to learn a lot of information to succeed.

There are many methods shared on this forum related to Instagram but I think the sad part is that people rely heavily on churn and burn using bots. This is not the approach you want to take. Although, many of these methods rely on bots why not go the other route instead of getting your accounts banned, right?

With TikTok emerging, Instagram is having hard times, but you can still make a lot of money from it/ have other value for your business, for example. Definitely, the safest way to go is to create legit and interesting content, post often, schedule an add or two.

However, this is not the fastest way, as the person above has mentioned, as quick or relatively quick money can come only via using bots. Yeah it is dangerous, as your accounts or even your ip can get banned. In this case, don't forget to use proxies, as they'll keep you (or at least your IP) safe from being detected.

I wouldn't agree entirely that bots should be out of the option. There are ways to come around Instagram algorithms, using proxies, for example. So if you're looking for quick dollars - this is the way to go. Just remember to stay safe!

If by viable you mean easy and cheap, nope.

Most commercial/common bots are flagged by IG as well as proxies, you're gonna need to get a custom made bot and find a proxy company that hasn't been abused on IG.

Sure thing, you can. Not sure what links are you looking for though, just read forums to be in the know.
