[My Setup] 1 Hour/Daily, 8 Instagram Accounts Leveling

Hello everyone,

Long time lurker, recently decided to create a BHW account with the entire world going to shit. Figured there was nothing to lose. I unintentionally highjacked another thread with my little Instagram setup so here I go making my 1st thread.

Disclaimer: I am by no means an expert and my setup is probably far from optimized. But, I learnt something a long time ago that my time is valuable. The way I have it setup makes it easy and requires very little to no effort on my end.

------------

Setup:

4 Phones: LG G3, LG G5, HTC E9, Pixel 2
Plugged into a Multi Charging Station on my desk.

Each phone runs :

Private dedicated IP - Cost $22/month
Instazood - $15/month
Buffer - Free
Total: $235.04

Other Expenses: Depending on how much free time I have I find myself spending $0-500/month on trying to add value to the accounts. Graphic design, videos, hashtag research, cross promotions. I look at this as a bad habit I am trying to stop, as I don't see any immediate improvement.

------------

Process: Instazood

Runtime: 3-4 hours straight (random breaks) 12 hours per account.
Week 1: Follow/Like - Week 2: Unfollow/Like - Repeat

Start
Normally I get up. Change accounts on phones, add posts to buffer and any fiverr orders.
[Insert rest of the day]
Change accounts. Go to bed.
Repeat.

------------

Profit:

Between the 8 accounts I make the following:
$300-400/month from fiverr (if I am lucky)
$200-300/month from random stuff. (Promotion messages, repost, affiliate links etc)
Then when the account gets to 5,000+ followers I sell them.

It really depends what niche I am after. For example I have one account that is targeting pineapples because of trends. That account has cost me money (no fiverr interest), but I have a buyer for it so it will work out.

I've had this setup running for the last 4 months (since the world went to shit) and it's great. I have a buyer lined up for almost all accounts and then I make random accounts for niches which I see if I can covert affiliates from.

------------

Disclaimer: I am lucky if I break even when leveling the accounts. For example I have been leveling an everything pineapple account for a friend and I've made $0 from fiverr on the account and other sources.

Hopefully this was insightful for some. As mentioned I am no expert and I enjoy this process, have always wondered if it could be scaled using VMs. Probably something I won't try, but until these phone batteries give out I will continue.

Do you usually face action blocks, if not how many time instazood is working fine for you?

Where do u sell them?

So all of this work and you are hardly getting any profit, why waste such valuable time on something that may not work, it is controlled by IG/ FB and their algorithm changes that are crazy. If you have this experience why not work in something else that at least give you money for the hours worked without losing or leveling.

Anything that makes him money, not just work, work, work for a loss! I mean he seems to have a great experience, setting up phones, working with proxies ... so he can do other stuff that may bring him money, may be work on a website, optimize content and sell ads or whatever .... I don't know, it is all depend on what he likes to do and his experience, but it sucks to see such talent and hard work ... not going anywhere

You would be surprised with how many knowledge I have and I am not even making 1k/mo, sometimes we doesnt know a way to monetize our knowledge, talents, wisdom or non material things...

Never face any action blocks the way I have it setup. Edit: It's also the reason why I am running custom mobile connections on each device.

I have several clients that buy them from me. I don't post them anywhere public, or rather I have not needed to yet. 1-2 people buy most if not all my accounts.

I make lots of profit after the accounts have been delivered. During their creation and run time I do indeed lose money.
Custom accounts ranging from 5,000-50,000 fetch me a decent price. I was more referencing during the process I am usually at a profit loss. After I sell the accounts I am way north of profitable.

Just because I have gotten a few private messages. I wanted to expand on a few things:

1. I normally sell the accounts at 25,000 followers which takes me about 3-4 weeks depending how popular the niche is. I almost hit 10,000 in one day when fidget spinners were a thing.
2. This is a hobby and I have no plans on scaling it. Yes, it can be optimized better, but this works for me and supports a Proxy/VPN company I like.
3. I am not taking any new clients or orders for Instagram.

Do I think it's worth doing? Only if you have some expansible income for the services and equipment. I do it because I have all of that and usually can't function in the morning without an easy task and coffee.

Have u ever used instazood on desktop?

Yes, but it gets action blocks very easily as it seems very easy to detect. Phones have been the only thing I've not had any issues with prior to Instagress.
