There are three types of audience gathering, independent of each other. That is, you can run all types of audience gathering at the same time.
By hashtags – specify a list of hashtags, select the number of streams, as well as account group and proxy group. And launch it.
To adjust the collection limit for each hashtag, set the slider to the value you want.

By geolocation – specify a list of geolocations, choose the number of streams, and account and proxy groups. And you start it up.
In order to adjust the collection limit for each geo, set the slider to the value you need.

By competitors, enter competitors list in username or id format, select number of streams, account group and proxy group. And then you start.
In order to regulate the collection limit for each competitor, set the slider to the value you need.

*Important information*
1. Removing duplicates is done automatically when collection stops.
2. To avoid file conflicts, overwrite already prepared files, and other problems – the software itself creates files with a date stamp and a note which format lies inside.
Audience gathering by hashtags and geolocation only allows saving in ID format

And audience gathering by competitors allows you to save in ID format and USERNAME format.

Specify the required filters – specify the base in ID and specify where to save to.
*IMPORTANT*
There are 3 file formats in the output. ID, USERNAME, ID AND USERNAME

Select account group and proxy group.
The “update all accounts in the group” button visually displays the accounts’ data in a table. Select the necessary items and press start.
*The rows and files are taken at random*

Instagram cares about user safety and comfort, so it severely punishes spammers and scammers. But you can get your account blocked not because of obvious bendings the rules, but because of banal ignorance of Instagram limits, that is, by accident.

In this article, we’ve outlined the current Instagram limits for 2021, so you don’t make the mistake of promoting your account.

New Instagram limits for actions per hour, per day, per month
Figures are tentative, because Instagram can change the limits at any time, come up with new rules or cancel old ones. One thing is for sure – the social network reacts faster every year to any vbendings and it’s likely that the limits will only get cut, so the best solution is to stick to the middle of the range (but it’s up to you to decide).

Important: limits are different for new, young (up to 6 months) and old accounts.

Number of follows
Limits for new account (less than a week old)

Up to 2 000 follows per month;
Up to 20-40 follows per hour, but not more than 100 follows per day.
For the young account (up to 6 months):

Up to 3,000 – 4,000 follows per month;
Up to 30-60 follows per hour, but no more than 500 follows per day.
For an old account (more than 6 months):

Up to 5,000 – 6,000 follows per month;
Up to 60 follows per hour, but no more than 800 follows per day.
Important: the range, for example, 3 000 – 4 000 follows per month assumes a different monthly amount, if you follow to the same number of accounts each month (for example, 3 500), it may cause suspicion to the social network algorithms.

Unfollow
Unfollows are counted the same way as follows, and the system summarizes these actions. That is, if you have a new account (up to 7 days) you’ve followd to 4 000 accounts per month, and unfollowd from 1 000, the total will be 5 000 actions, and that’s exceeding the limit.

Likes
For the new account:

Up to 300 likes per day;
Up to 25 likes per hour.
For a young account:

Up to 600 likes per day;
Up to 50 likes per hour;
For an old account:

Up to 900 likes per day;
Up to 50 likes per hour.
Comments
For new account:

Up to 150 comments per day;
Up to 30 per hour.
For a young account:

Up to 200 comments per day;
Up to 40 per hour.
For an old account:

Up to 250-300 comments per day;
Up to 50 per hour.
Sending messages to Direct
For new account:

Up to 20 emails per day.
For a young account:

Up to 40 messages per day.
For an old account:

Up to 50 messages per day.
You should also avoid sending the same message to different accounts, as this is considered spam. The exceptions are welcome messages and quick replies in Direct.

Important: spamming in Direct infuriates users far more than comment spam, likes, and annoying follows. Instagram is particularly careful about the quantity and quality of posts, so stick to the limits and work on the quality of your newsletters.

Delay between actions (timeouts)
Does not depend on when the account was created.

pauses between likes: 25-35 seconds;
between comments: from 7 minutes;
between following/ unfollowing: from 1 minute;
between sending messages in Direct: 8-10 minutes.
Scamming of followers, likes, views etc.
Scamming limits are not relevant in 2021, because if you don’t get a ban for these actions, you are simply killing your account with low-quality audience. Promote yourself with ads and useful content, drive traffic from other sources (social networks, personal site, YouTube channel), give away business cards with a QR code, do live events, shoot more posts.

Consequences for bending limits
You can get banned for:

overdoing it with likes and comments;
short pauses between actions (normal users don’t like 30 posts per minute);
too many follows and unfollows;
too many direct mailings;
comment spamming – these are identical comments under different posts to draw attention to your page;
Account can be blocked not only for bending of limits, cheating, massive activity and spam, but also for forbidden content, breaking of other’s copyrights, frequent editing of publications.

Types of blocking:

temporary – freezing actions (all or specific), need to change your password;
permanent – complete deletion of the account from the social network;
accidental – due to mistakes made by Instagram itself;
shadow ban – there are restrictions, but no warnings.
We advise to read the detailed article on what exactly and how Instagram bans, so as not to bend anything.

Important: In 2020, Instagram was testing a feature after which the social network itself will tell users who should be banned. Most likely, the innovation will work in 2021. Such accounts will be blacklisted (that is, they won’t be blocked by the system at all). It’s possible that Instagram itself will start blocking users if they’ve been blacklisted too often (we’ll see in 2021).

What to do if your account has been blocked?
You can try to appeal a blocking, if you haven’t committed an obvious illegal action and are not a persistent spammer. In 2020, Instagram has made it easier to appeal – this is good news for those who are tired of long, monotonous tech support responses.

Conclusion
Try not to exceed Instagram’s limits and use the social network like a regular user, even if your goal is to promote a business. These days, it’s harder and harder to engage customers through commenting, liking, following and sharing, but getting your account blocked is easy. So if you’re going down this route, plan your strategy carefully and stay within your account limits.

As of late, many Instagram users are having problems logging in. When opening the app, a splash screen appears saying “Help us make sure you own this account. To protect your account, request login help.” But once you click the button, you’re taken to the Instagram help page, and the system won’t let you back into the account. Nothing helps: neither logging in from other devices nor the desktop version. It’s impossible to contact Instagram support. So, roughly speaking, it’s a vicious circle: go to the app, press Instagram Login Help, go to the articles. And so many, many times.

The bug has been fixed since early October this year. Up until then the button was working, in October the button stopped working. Some accounts are having the bug a few days later after being restored.

There is a solution to this problem, all accounts that have had this bug (not the block, but the system bug) have been brought back to normal operation through a series of actions. I would like to add that the accounts were not on massfollowing, not caught in spam, etc. That is, no one is immune to this problem. Both a private account with a minimum of followers and a socially oriented account with tens of thousands of followers can have the bug.

Algorithm
The first thing to do is to install TOR BROWSER. Go to instagram.com and click on “forgot password”.
You should receive an email telling you to change your password.
Go ahead and set a new password.
Go back to the email (still in the same Tor Browser), find the email “Your Instagram password has been changed”. Click the link: If you didn’t change your password, you can secure your account here.
Instagram will ask you to verify your information (phone and email), confirm it. From then on, you can re-log in and use your account.

There are some cases when the algorithm doesn’t work. Then restart Tor Browser and run the algorithm again. You will have a new IP and a new place to go online. Usually it works for the second time.

Proxies can be taken from many different suppliers, but from many years of experience we have identified only one that stands out for its reliability and responsibility. Therefore, we can confidently recommend him to you:

InstaDirect SHOP – ipv6 mailing/resident proxies.

Set up 1 Ipv6 proxy per account.

Proxies from this supplier will work perfectly in our program which has been already verified many times. We wish you success in your work!

Getting to grips with Instagram? You’re already one step ahead of the rest, because in this article we’ll tell you about live streaming in as clear and informative a way as possible. Instagram has a feature that allows you to stream live videos – Instagram Live. It’s a very powerful tool with which you can influence your audience, increase follower loyalty and get potential customers interested.

However, not all bloggers prepare properly for live streams, and their live outings end up being ineffective. If you are motivated to be productive and don’t want to waste your time on live events, here are some tips:

1. Define the purpose of the live. Think about it and write it down. You can educate people, you can share your point of view, your emotions and experiences, you can answer interesting questions from your followers, you can hold competitions. Having a clear goal will give you confidence and help you plan your live broadcast.

2. How do you attract more viewers to your live broadcast? Announce! Make sure you tell them about the upcoming live broadcast in advance. Dedicate a separate post to it and remind them several times in your posts.

3. Motivate people to watch your live. You benefit from followers watching you. Make sure they benefit as well. Motivate your audience with contests, giveaways, promotions. Announce something exclusive that only members of your live will have access to.

4. Decide on a format and pace of communication that’s right for you. We’re all different. Some are fast-talking and lightning-fast at coming up with jokes. Some speak beautifully, succinctly and measuredly. Not everyone can answer a question quickly or improvise. Take this into account and plan the format of the live based on your own skills and strengths.

5. Use a good camera with high resolution. You don’t have to buy professional video equipment. Modern smartphones have high-quality cameras, many of which are perfectly capable of handling lengthy live events. Seriously consider getting a tripod, so the picture is stable and not annoying.

6. Set up your live streaming settings and features ahead of time. In your Instagram Live settings, you can specify the ability to receive private messages, you can automatically post storis, and you can set up lives in general. Set up the functionality based on the purpose and format of the live, so that you don’t get distracted by the settings during the process itself.
7. Choose a suitable location for your live broadcast. Set up the frame so that it matches the theme of your live event. Obviously, the location for informal socialising and the location for presenting a new product will be radically different. Make sure the location is ready for a long airing, is devoid of distractions and will allow you to communicate productively with your followers.

Remember that Instagram Live is an effective and powerful tool for reaching your audience. We hope that our tips will allow you to make the most of it. Good luck!
