Half of what makes a programming language good or bad is how much information there is about it. If there's no good VB Net documentation and you don't specifically need to use it, you might be better picking something else.

Python is good for web scripting. You could should be able to get a solid Instagram bot made in it. A Google search for VB Net shows 22,400,000 results, whereas a search for "Python" gives 197,000,000 results. Also, the official Python documentation is extensive.

It depends on what the bot needs to do, I'm not too into Instagram so I can't speak too much on it specifically, but if you're using it in a browser, you can easily write a bot in Javascript which is something you already know.

Just make use of DOM and the click function.

If that doesn't fit your needs, then most modern languages are capable of creating bots.
Like Matthew said, pick one that has good documentation so that you can learn it easier and just go with one.

my problem with bots is that they are too dumb. if someone was interested and asked for information it will only repeat itself over and over and over. no wonder bots keep on getting banned.

If it's a chat bot, which of course most bots are not, then yes, that's quite often the case.
However, given enough time and effort, it's possible to build bots that are far better at holding conversation. It's usually just impractical to do so.

Thanks @stuna @NumberT @MatthewGraham for your replies . I have started to learn new things and currently set my path as follows :-

1. Hone my skills to almost perfection in JavaScript
2. As i already know html css js so i decided to keep practicing in them from time to time .

3. Learn basic data base management ( currently learning basic of mysql , its quite easy )

4. For future i have decided to learn python

My aim is to hone my skills to above newbie in python by the end of next month ..

( There are too many festivals and wedding in this season , so can't give my 100% now )

Will try to make a journey thread soon

you know javascript . Good .

you could try a demo of Zennoposter , ubot etc to mkae bots with speed(edit : speed in terms of time for dev).

IF you want to develop in a language i would recommend python or C# as there are hufe quantity of third party libraries for scraping etc

then use selenium .
