Mother/Child (with a twist) for Ecomm Store

I've dabbled in the Mother/Child service before and seen decent follow results from. However, I am interested in using the method in a slightly different way. Instead of creating niche pages and directing people back to my own instagram page, I would like to create 50 cloned pages of my current business Instagram. All with my product photos, description, website link, etc, just slightly different usernames.

My reasoning for doing this is simple, so far my ecommerce business has been getting sales solely from interacting with my competitors followers. I do the traditional follow/unfollow, like, and comment. Then, for everyone who follows me, I send a welcome message that includes a 20% discount code. I've seen around a 2-4% conversion rate from this. The only issue is the limitations Instagram puts on these actions. I can only comment and like and follow so many times per day. So instead of increasing the number of actions I take on one account, I'd like to do the same strategy with 50+ unique business accounts, all linked to my ecommerce website and offering a discount.

Has anyone else done this? Does anyone provide this as a service?

I like the idea. Following

That's a very good strategy, but you need to consider these:
1. Don't put the same link in more than 3 accounts. If you use your main ecommerce domain across the whole 40 pages, they will be linked and you will have them banned and worse, your domain might be flagged and any future account linked to it will face blocks/bans all kind of bad things
2. Be sure for every account to target different related niches but separate between them so you won't target same people
3. Again, if you use same domain in the DMs that might trigger bans/blocks. You can use some squeeze/landing pages that will redirect it to your main ecommerce store.

Good luck and keep us posted.

Question, I see many use instagram.com, facebook.com etc in their bios, why would not those accounts be flagged but ours?

That's a very pertinent question. Yeah, but I think their AI is able to detect and link the related accounts. And I think they know it should be a ratio of fan pages to a high interest account with millions of followers.

I see. I wouldn't be sending links in the DM's. Just a welcome message and discount code. The link would simply be in the profile. And what about only using 10-20 accounts? Not a ton, just enough to generate some consistent traffic. That would also make it easier to target without overlapping audiences.

The issue with what you want to do is, if they can link all of them, you will have some hard time running them properly.
