UPDATE
25,700 followers (+1200)
I haven't been doing any following or unfollowing at all, I've been working on other projects for the account.
Building the account manually is taking way too long. I've been working on this account for 4 months total, I started keeping track of progress here on BHW a month ago. I'm only at 25k.. This account needs to start making me money, so here's the plan..
I plan on using a service I found to purchase followers, auto likes, and comments. I'm buying up to 50k followers, adding 500 auto likes to my pictures, and 5 extra comments per picture. ALL of the accounts in my niche get low amount of likes and low amount of comments. That's great for me because my account can look real without much effort.
These are the stats for the average 50k in my niche:
50k followers, 1000-1500 likes per pic, 10-20 comments
These are the stats for my account:
25k followers, 700 avg likes per pic, 5-10 comments
These will be the stats for my account after the services:
50k followers, 1200 avg likes per pic, 10-20 comments --- It's gonna look legit.
At 50k I'm going to start doing SFS to build the account further. I'm hoping to grow extremely fast from sfs because everyone I will be doing sfs with followers are real, and never seen my account before. I'm also working on revamping the look of the account, new logo, new bio, new pic style.
Next part of the plan:
It's simple, I'm going to design logos as well as instagram pictures for themed pages. My niche is perfect for this, I know for sure it will work because I've had multiple people message me asking me to create them a logo and/or pictures for their page. I'm pretty good at photoshop, everything is high quality. All my followers are adult entrepreneurs, and a lot of them need logos for their business. I'm working on putting a website together for this. I don't know the prices I'm going to charge, but I'll keep you updated.
Question: I am thinking of using Shopify to sell the logos, but i'm 16 and shopify rules says I have to be 18 to use their site. I set up a shopify account with a fake age, but all the other info is legit (bank account, ssn, name, address, etc.). Will this work? Will they find out I am 16 through my ssn and ban me from the site? If they don't find out and I sell stuff and they actually transfer the money to my bank account, then what do I do with the money? I'm 16 so do I pay taxes on it? And when I pay taxes on it, because i'm not 18, could the money be taken from me somehow?
As I said in the beginning of this thread, This will be a success. Stay tuned.
