    I am looking to sell an Instagram account 30k+ followers and very good engagement but I don't know the best place to sell it. Any ideas on where the best place to sell it is?

    I think you'll find that their intention is that you can
    • transfer between employees of the business
    • treat the account as a chattel of a business when the business is sold

    Doesn't it make more sense then to be looking for a reputable place to sell your business?
    The instagram account is just a small part of a business and shouldn't be the deciding factor in your selling decisions.

    Indeed it can, or perhaps you are just being clever with words to get around the fact that you want to break their TOS.

    Perhaps you shouldn't give me an unnecessary warning on my previous post for 'running up post count' when firstly you felt the need to reply to it and therefore furthered the conversation between us and secondly I don't need to run up a post count I've been a member on here for years as on many other forums.
    Rather than you being so rude from the offset for accidentally posting this in the wrong forum sub-section; perhaps I am social media marketer that runs multiple online businesses and it is infact a genuine business and a genuine question so if you don't mind can you leave the replies to somebody that will actually help.

    The warning has been reversed, my apologies for that.
    A social media marketer would have established an exit plan for when they want to sell one of the businesses long before they need to - my apologies again for not recognising you as such.

    At first read the T&C of Instagram - what they say about their policy? If you really want to sell your Instagram account then find your niche related persons on Facebook or other social media, then send them your proposal with lots of followers and your asking price. If they agree with it you can sell your Instagram account. Thanks!

    There are numerous platforms where you can do this. However, the question is: if you have a large number of followers, why not try to join ad campaigns instead? That’ll give you a long-term income with minimum work, as long as you keep your followers inerested.
