Continue logging in for a week using a browser. Each new account should ideally stay online for 8 hours, and during this period, avoid logging into other accounts using this browser.
After a week of nurturing a new account, first add a profile picture and cover photo, then start adding friends, but remember not to add too many at once; start with one, and then slowly increase, but do not rush. After a week, do not just log in and out quickly; Instagram may misjudge your account as being at risk of being hacked and automatically enter safe mode. It is best to stay logged in for at least an hour. After a week, you can use your older, well-nurtured accounts to like posts made by this account, especially those with people in them, and leave comments to warm up the posts. You can also have a few accounts send private messages to each other and chat, simulating connections between real friends to increase the account's activity and authenticity.
This maintenance and nurturing of your account should continue into the third week, at which point you can start to slightly expand your activities, but don’t overdo it. On the 10th day of the new account, you can start to improve the profile gradually; remember not to complete all improvements at once. For example: today improve the location, tomorrow improve the school, profession, etc.
Continue this nurturing method for a month; after a month, unless you operate frequently or abnormally, your account is unlikely to be banned, and you can start advertising. However, don’t go overboard; you can gradually increase the volume of advertising.
In the meantime, you can like some posts and share simple mood updates, but do not post ads, as Instagram may restrict you due to this action or even directly ban your account. Do not use another person's profile picture or photo as your own avatar, as Instagram has activated facial recognition since 2018. If you misuse photos from other Instagram accounts, Instagram will be able to identify this.
For example, how many friends can I add in a day? You need to test your boundaries yourself. If you send 10 friend requests in a few minutes and receive a prompt from Facebook saying to add people you know, you will know to stop and delete any requests that have not been accepted!
The current recommendation is that a new account can safely add 5-8 friends a day, and after half a month, it can increase to 20. The number is not exact; it is mainly a gradual process to gain the trust of Instagram's algorithm. If you are passively adding friends (i.e., others add you and you accept their requests), there is no limit to how many you can add in a day.
Similarly, you will need to explore how many posts you can publish in a few minutes and how many groups you can post in without being banned from posting in groups. How many messages can I send at once? How many posts should I make in a day to please my followers? These all need to be explored continuously.
Day 1: After registration, verify your email and upload a profile picture. There will be guided steps asking you to upload a picture, cover photo, fill in your information, etc. Do not overdo the operations; just browse for 5 minutes and exit. No need to link your phone.
Day 2: Log in with the same device. If you registered with a computer, use that same computer to log in, and avoid changing devices for at least half a month. Then, follow a few public figures and add 1-2 customers, and just browse a bit before closing.
Day 3: Complete your personal information and download a copy of your data. Browse through some posts, explore other functions of Instagram, and finally add 1-2 friends.
Day 4: Browse the dynamics of the people you follow, familiarize yourself with Instagram as a curious user, build effect frames, watch videos, browse posts, and join a couple of groups. Do not add more than 10 friends in a day.
One week later: Set up a business account and improve your profile.
In the early stages of nurturing, actively adding a large number of friends, mass liking, adding fan pages, joining groups, and posting in others' groups. Modifying personal information, such as name, password, email, phone number, etc., significantly during the early stages of nurturing. Logging in from multiple different IP addresses in a short time, e.g., today using a U.S. IP and tomorrow a Japan IP. Creating a business account, joining groups, and posting immediately after registering an account. Failing to clear cookies and cache on the first login, leading to account association.
Act like a regular user
Make Instagram perceive you as an ordinary user rather than a marketing account set up for promotion. Understand the platform as a regular user, and do not violate platform rules for marketing promotion. After registering, do not create a business account, add friends, or rush to advertise. It’s best to register on a mobile device, as Instagram is currently more friendly to mobile users. After registering on Instagram, improve your profile, avatar, and other information. The avatar must clearly show facial features for photo verification.
Repeated registrations on the same IP and device
Repeated registrations of Instagram accounts from the same IP address or computer may trigger account verification. We recommend confirming that you cannot recover an old account before registering anew, clearing your browser cache and cookies, or registering on a different computer. For the same IP address, a cooling-off period of at least 24 hours is suggested. Continuous frequent operations will cause both your account and IP to be blacklisted.
Multiple accounts
Another common mistake is to register a new account immediately after one is banned without recovering it. Instagram operates on a real-name system. If different accounts use similar identity information, Instagram can analyze multiple accounts from your posts, email, or phone number to determine if they belong to the same person. In short, do not use the same information for every account, including the profile picture; you cannot use the same picture for different accounts.
False identity information
This mainly includes profile pictures, unusual names, and any terms that skirt around industry or product guidelines. It is advisable to use real identity information for registration. Instagram does not strictly require the profile picture to be a personal photo, but one method of identity verification is to ask for verification using friend avatars and names. If you cannot recognize the profile picture provided by Instagram or if there are too many fake friends, verification will fail.
Simultaneous logins on multiple devices
If you are logged into Instagram on a computer and also have it open on your phone, the IP addresses may not match or may show a shared account. Several people using the same account or switching devices quickly can lead to complications. It’s not that you can’t log in from both mobile and computer, but when the account is still new, we do not recommend this, as the risk of being banned is high.
Modifying sensitive account content
Such as names, avatars, birthdays, contact information, and important privacy settings. If major modifications are made simultaneously, Instagram may trigger login verification or other identity checks.
Not logging in for a long time and not updating
Just registering an account and not completing personal information leaves the account dormant. For new accounts, log in every day and browse a little each day. While older accounts may not have too many issues if left unlogged for over half a year, new accounts should be cautious about not logging in for long periods or not updating.
Excessive actions in a short time
This is the main reason for account bans. This includes sending the same messages to friends or strangers in bulk, frequently adding friends (especially if warnings are issued and you still persist), joining groups frequently, and logging in and out too often. Remember: performing a frequent repetitive action in a short time (e.g., in a few minutes) will definitely raise security issues for the account, as Instagram is a social platform that prioritizes user experience. Such actions will be viewed as suspicious, possibly indicating bot or crawler behavior. So, during the initial stages of the account, always operate as a normal user would.
Immediately act after unblocking
After an account is unblocked, immediately complete the profile, modify information, add friends, etc., leading to a quick ban again. This scenario occurs often. The correct approach is to browse normally for a few minutes after unblocking and then log off. The next day, browse a few more minutes. On the third day, make some simple modifications, and only after a week can you actively add people, adjusting your operation pattern to mimic normal human behavior to get through the beginner phase without rushing.
Exaggerated false advertising
Posting a large number of spam messages, advertisements, and other content affects user experience. Content related to pornography, violence, illegal goods, infringement of rights, and illegal content are extremely dangerous behaviors that can lead to permanent bans.
Complaints
Posts, ads, and business accounts can all be reported. If the content causes discomfort, it will be reported, leading to account bans.
False bans
False bans are also not uncommon, as the platform is continuously battling against black market activities. Sometimes technical reviews may inadvertently impact innocent users, and Instagram frequently has inexplicable bugs. It is best to remain calm and learn to cleverly avoid issues.
Company Business Accounts
After establishing a personal account, you need to log in daily using the same phone or computer with the same IP. If you have no issues for a month, you can create a business account. We recommend clients to establish 2-3 business accounts in emergencies. Since business accounts can be managed by different personal accounts, the more business accounts a company manages, the safer they become. Even if one account is restricted, other accounts can still manage the business account, maintaining management rights.
Number of Friends
The number of friends is indeed one of the keys to successful marketing. Generally, a marketing account with a real number of friends between 500-1000 is more successful. The first batch of friends should come from your mobile contacts or system-recommended potential friends. Add 1-3 friends each day, avoiding frequent additions. For the first three months after opening a new account, do not frequently add strangers; ideally, do not exceed 8 per week. Maintain an active status for at least three months, logging in 1-3 times daily, and engage in searching, reading, and interacting for 10-30 minutes each time. Participate in mini-games on the platform and strive to become a real user. Keep interactions up, including chatting, liking, commenting, and private exchanges. Ensure posts include original images, text, and trends, with updates 3-5 times a week.
Timeline
An important criterion for Instagram to determine whether an account is real is the completeness and activity of the timeline. A good marketing account can not only promote its products but also share interesting content like life photos and current events on its timeline.
Friends You May Know
This interface is easily overlooked by users but is crucial for assessing account activity. For newly registered Instagram users, this interface is empty. As you use it over time, the site will recommend friends based on your preferences, interests, and interactions.
Add Experienced Users and High-Activity Friends
At the beginning of account registration, you can add some experienced and highly active users as friends. The criteria for judgment are that they have been registered for a long time (ideally over a year) and are still active (daily content updates are best). Interact more with these friends, and even add them as trusted friends (for identity verification when the account forgets the password or faces other risks), to enhance the account's credibility.
Follow Authoritative Media Accounts
You can follow some authoritative accounts, such as public figures or media accounts.
Steady Marketing
Your account should be stable for over a month. At this point, you can start some paid promotional activities to expand your influence, but be cautious with marketing and gradually mitigate risks. Additionally, posts with links should be kept to a minimum, especially external links.
Growing an Account Means Keeping It Active
This means allowing our account to mimic the usage and habits of regular users. First, understand the reasons for being banned and the community rules of Instagram. Maintain a stable IP; if a computer or phone has been banned previously, clear the cache before re-registering. Avoid adding many friends or groups in a short time, and operate like a normal person. Instagram is essentially a social platform, and do not approach it from a marketing perspective.
In the early stages of nurturing an account, there is a high chance that the account will enter safe mode and request photo uploads. This situation may arise because you began operations right after registration, or it may be a random safety mode triggered by Instagram to prevent bot registrations. If you encounter this situation, do not panic. Follow the steps below to resolve it easily.
When registering the account, the photo you prepared in advance will come in handy. Choose the photo and upload it. After uploading, you will wait for a notification. You can choose not to click confirm and just wait on that page. You can also click confirm to exit; if you exit, do not frequently check whether your account has been released. Wait two days before checking (stay calm; you registered normally, and nothing will happen to you). Do not delete the photo; keep it for future use, as there is a chance you may enter safe mode again. If you just registered and immediately entered safe mode, what should you do? You can abandon that account, let it be unblocked, and after a month, that account will no longer exist, allowing you to register again with that phone number. Alternatively, you can unblock it using the method mentioned above.
New accounts that have not performed operations or frequently changed IP addresses will not be banned. Another situation is that if you frequently log in to check if your account has exited safe mode or upload photos repeatedly, this will also lead to a ban.
New accounts that have not been operated can appeal directly, with a success rate of about 80%. If there have been violations, don’t bother appealing, as there is almost no hope. Some functions may be restricted, such as posting, indicating that Instagram believes your posts are too frequent and dense; this usually results in a restriction for a week. In this case, just restrain your actions. If you believe there is no issue, you can appeal. Another situation is if you post and Instagram claims your post violates regulations; if your post is not a violation, you can appeal, and it will be resolved quickly.
