Questions on starting to manual F/U

Hello, I have an instagram account from 2015 that I have been active on with my travel blog, however, at <3k followers, I'm looking to boost the number utilizing F/U and other methods through my phone via the app on 4G/WiFi.

So, my question is, what limits should I set for myself initially in regards to follow and unfollow without the risk of being blocked. I know having an older account that has been pretty active might be able to fly a bit more under the radar from a brand new account.

Any thoughts on targets and anything else I should do to increase my follower count?

100- 150 follows per day and 50 -100 likes

Depends on the trust of the account.

if you can follow 100 at one time all at once, then you have a good trust score. If you get blocked after 50 or so. Your trust score is low.

Do 50 all at once - 3 times a day to start. After some days you may be able to do 100 all at once - 2-3 times a day.

Way less time consuming.

Good idea on starting at bursts of 50 to start. I'll see how that goes. Thanks!

Try to stay natural. It's better to get less results than get banned.

Do not follow more than 100 people per day, if you got warning slow down for couple of days. Also use other marketing strategies that increase engagement on your posts.
