Ghost followers -- keep em else account death

I was looking at this on one of my accounts and thought this would be a good reason to show you folks why removing ghost followers is fatal. Those saves and DM’s are off the hook. This account gets 1 % ER and is 269k. Some would say it sucks and might say remove ghosts right? Nope. Stats we can’t scrap such as saves and dm are there. If I remove followers those 2 areas will be fatally killed. That’s why folks I harp so deeply never remove ghosts cause you are risking the account.
This method worked in the past, not anymore. With blocks, locks, and other reasons spend the time to increase ER –
Think, removing ghosts on a low ER account will make it worse… not better performing


Btw. This low ER account averages 1k a day for the past 4.5 months

Interesting. Although it depends what you mean by ghosts. I consider ghosts 3,000+ following and no profile picture or accounts with 0-2 followers

Removing real accounts just because they dont Like or Comment is a mistake, agreed.

Removing them often results in blocks in today’s insta, Say you have a 100k account and 3,000 are targeted as ghosts-fakes, after you remove them if you don’t get blocked and shadowed or throttled, you are left with 97k – it is not going to show your post to more since you have less followers. It is the process of removing them – the actions – that kicks ya in the butt.

Couldn’t agree more on this find. It’s all about the actions you do. I noticed this when doing unfollow. If I leave the account dormant for a few days and then come back and post, the post goes pretty well. Once I start doing Follow / Unfollow, all future posts get crappy exposure. Thanks @Alexnvo for confirming. Cheers brother :+1:
