Is it good idea to buy instagram followers?

Hello Guys,

I hope this is correct section to post a question.
I have been reading a lot about instagram advertisement but one thing is nowhere to be found is you can not advertise on Instagram for followers. At first it was bit shock for me because Facebook has this option but Instagram Not.

Now, I have been thinking about other ways from where I can get followers for my instagram account.
Before I go ahead I want to hear out your experiences and thoughts.

 

I personally think that buying Instagram followers when you're just starting is a good idea. Your profile need to look the part in order for users to trust your business.

 

I`am just wondering how many people you want to follow you to make your account more trusted?

 

I'd say a minimum of 1000 followers should be a good start.
I'm seeing how expensive Instagram followers are: https://socialtipster.co/buy-instagram-followers/
Probably because they claim they're real

 

Yeah, I guess you are right.
In Instagram you can just post something and promote your post, isn`t it?

 

By 'promote' you mean through paid ads?
Well, a better strategy when you're starting off is to figure out how best to find the right hashtags that'll get your content to the explore page.

 

Yeah, paid. In order to earn money you have to spend some.
Hashtags and user name are important in this context, it have to be easy to find for other users

 

Paid ads are great, but you're likely to lose a lot of money before getting a hang of it.

 

Or, one more way, you can just follow to the followers of your direct competitors. Easy, free and effective

 

Instagram changed its limits so that you'll start experiencing action blocks if you tried to follow too many people within a short time.

A strategy that I find effective to this day is the Mother-Child method.

 

Didn`t heard about that, but thank you for the tip

 

Sometimes it gives good results but you have to try to do this manually.

 

Have you considered using an Instagram growth service? You'll be spending less yet gaining more followers. You just have to find a good one.

 

Don't buy followers , because those followers are not organic and they can leave any time. Make your content impressive and attractive ,so that people join you with interest

 

I guess, Instagram don`t have this option because this is not effective, it`s better to have 200 real organic followers, than 1000 fakes.
One of the best ways to get followers is to ask top bloggers to tell about your product or services or whatever

 

When you're running an e-com site, you want to give a good first impression on potential customers. Most people will not even check to see if your followers are fake or real, so having, say, 20k fake followers would look so much better than when you have 30 real followers.

 

Personally, I've never paid for followers. I usually do bulk following myself. The only problem with adding your own followers is you don't know which accounts are real or fake. I don't follow authority figures. I'll usually find someone whos into the niche I'm in and start following all of the people following them in hopes of them following me back. I have one account with about 8k followers and is semi targeted to my health niche. It takes a little work but I don't have to spend any money and can do it straight from the phone when I'm watching tv or something.

 

My strategy for minimizing the chances of following fake users is to never us sources with more than 10k followers.
I also make sure my sources have great engagement.

 

That's a good idea. If you look into their posts you can usually see by how many likes/comments they get if their following is engaging or just fake.

 

If you have the allocated budget to buy a decent Instagram followers, It would be a good start. However, try to establish your page manually by searching the best strategy to implement in your page. Provide high quality images that shows how unique and beneficial your product and services.
