Which Instagram Accounts Do I need for this?

Hi Guys, so I am about to build a fashion account with a Shopify store.

For this project, I will do everything with Instagram only and I will use a bot. Here is what I am doing right now. My question is which accounts do I need to buy to kinda scale this up.

So I have my main account, let's call it "A". This is the account for the store and I am publishing only products on that feed. This account is linked to the bot as well but is performing no action but welcome new users with Welcome Messages. (40-50 a day). Running for 3 weeks now.

I am growing account A with sub accounts.
At the moment I have 3 accounts running. Let's call it "B", "C" and "D". On those accounts, I am publishing customer images. Those accounts are set to private to test if curiosity will make them click the link in the bio or go further to my main account. In the Bio I explain this in a short sentence so everybody knows what the account is all about.

Account B, C, and D are completely automated and performing like, follow and unfollow actions. The limits are set high (at least I think its considered high - max 800-1000 follows a day). I don't really care if they get blocked, if they shut them down I just use new ones. In addition to like, follow and unfollow, those accounts are sending messages to new followers to get them like the main page. I am offering a discount code for a follow on the main account.

So basically, accounts B, C and D are following people and like peoples stuff to get eyeballs on the accounts. People either click on the linked account in the bio (main account) or follow the page. If they do so, they get a message to follow my main account to get a discount code. On the main account, every new follower gets a welcome message with a discount code.

Its working great, but 3 accounts are not enough so I want to scale this up and want to buy accounts.
Here is what I need help with:

I tried to look up accounts and saw there are accounts at different ages. the younger the accounts the cheaper they are. Its also mentioned in many listings that younger accounts are risky to get banned. Some listings even mention which accounts are best for long and short-term projects.

So which accounts should I buy to have the best results? Do I need certain proxies for it? ATM I use proxies from ActProxy.com Is there anything else I need to pay attention to when scaling this up so I don't face major issues later on?

Also, I believe with this method my main account should be save right? I don't do anything but posting images, no follow/unfollow or liking or anything like that.

Thank you for reading all that. I am looking forward to getting some great answers. Also, I hope I helped some other people with this method of growing an account.

my 7 year old accounts are performing the same way as 6 months old accounts, there used to be a difference last year but this year not anymore. But I think you want to buy some that have at least a few hundred real followers so you don't need to start from 0.

thanks for your answer! So you think I can buy some that are just a couple months with no issues?
What is the advantage of having some followers already? At the 3 current accounts I just bought fake followers to look legit when people come to the account.

Also, when I buy them, can I log in with my bot straight away using my proxies? Or is there anything I need to take care of?

Get accounts in the 6month to 1year range. Brand new accounts are more prone to bans, and verification issues. And yes, you'll be able to link them to your proxies right away. You might get a verification when adding it to the new proxy, but just the one if you have your settings for daily actions set properly.

Agreed. Aged is no more a must now. I mostly add 1 day old accounts into bot and start action. No issue. Ban rate is all same for all accounts wheter its aged or fresh. The thing is you must warm it up properly. Doing like human being on the start. Not perform like you showing to instagram that you are using a bot.

Can't say I agree.. there isnt a huge difference as there was maybe a year ago, but I definitely notice a differnce in a 1 day old account and a 6 month old account. I can run a 6 month account without getting any verifications, and when using a brand new one I'll more times than not recieve atleast pv.

That's right, there's a difference between a day and 6 months old accounts, but as of this year, 3 months old account are preforming the same as 7 years old account, or even better sometimes, because they haven't been messed with and misshandled as much as older accounts

Where you're getting your accounts from plays a big factor in it as well, as you said if you get a 7 year old account that has been messed with already, then chances are it isn't going to perform to well in the future. But if you have a good supplier, that has accounts that have never had any strikes and flags against them and were just made years ago and not touched, those are the accounts I prefer.

True that, but the fact that they have been created in another country, with an account creation software and then you are logging into it years later from another device, ip, proxi or whatever, is enough for them to underperform when set next to the ones you have created yourself 3 months ago in the proxi they were meant to be used with.
