I switched to Jarvee and have had a lot of struggles right out of the gate with some of the most basic settings. Following 300, unfollowing 350, liking 300, all evenly spread out throughout the day.
Long story short, two of my accounts that I absolutely cannot lose were phone verified earlier this week. Then phone verified again today. I put the halt on it all. I am using residential IP from resnetworking. Just wanted to know how many phone verifications an account can get, or if I am overreacting.
Thanks for the help. I am working with my brand account and a couple more. I was under the impression a residential IP was better than a dedicated proxy. We are looking for the safest route possible. Would appreciate any advice here. Doing a cool down period right now.
Thank you for sharing this. Still learning a lot. What proxies do you prefer because you trust them?
Also, why would those number be a problem? I worked up to that with a slow ramp up, increasing by 25 everyday from 100. I also have seen double these numbers.
This may or may not be the issue, but think about it - do regular Instagram users spread out their activity evenly throughout the day? Or do they do it in several different bursts of activity?
No human follows 300 people in the day by following one person exactly every 4 minutes and 48 secondsā¦
Again, I donāt know if this is whatās causing your issue, but I imagine developers at Instagram would be smart about this, and they are currently on the defence against automation.
Play around with this, see if things improve. Good luck.
Instagram is mostly using clustering to detect bots such as MP, the artificial intelligence basically collects all the data on IG and simply classify what stats (number of follows / followers / posts / actions / proxies / account creation etc) represent a normal user (they are working with millions of data, so you best believe the accuracy is very high).
MP is using random time between action to lower the possibility of detection but itās the users (you) which are responsible for the number of actions done during the day, be sure that a lower number of actions will overtime trigger much less problems.
Although I noticed some weird āGETā calls during my analysis of the API and those could be used to detect bot patterns.
Resnetworking is one of at least 2 people who have access to, and use the ASN 701.
They buy and sell IPs under it, and in theory they should be good. They should be āresidentialā. I purchased a large quantity of IPV4 IPs from them a long time ago and they looked great. Location was a catholic school website server on the east coast.
Problem was that they were all sequential. Blocked immediately with the first hour of use. It took forever to convince them to let me try some of their IPV6.
Again, all sequential ( this bad, especially with IPV6). Customer service is shit. The worst. I had to chargeback via PayPal and dispute and it took forever.
I can make any IP look residential. I know how/where to buy/lease IPs, how to route them through hurricane electric, how to announce them with a residential ASN so they look like residential.
You might even see @dimitri talk about the difference between residential and REAL residential around the forum. Just because they say residential does not mean they are really. Real residential has an actual end user on them. The more subnets, the more blocks of IPs, the better.
I wouldnāt touch resnetworking with a 20 foot (6.096 meters to those that use the metric system) pole. I could tag a few leaders, and some respected forum members and they would easily backup my claims.
Yes, realizing now there are strong opinions against using them. Hopefully my phone validated/shadow banned accounts can heal. Havenāt been on any since last weekās 2nd phone validation.
PM Me, i really donāt want to go to BlazeSEO and risk more.
This is straight up hilarious. Thanks for the conversion.
Well thatās exactly not what was being done. In Jarvee its set up to sleep at night, like normal. follow between 8-12 people with 30seconds to 3 mins inbetween each. And then rest between 20-40mins in between that. Itās pretty damn good at creating randomness and also set up like a fairly active aspiring influencer that is doing this all manual. Iām certain I was affected because the IP.
Are you in a spam operation? Are they client accounts? There are plenty of trusted sellers here. Lots of people have success with ābudgetā proxies. But if you are buying āresidentialā proxies, then you are likely not as worried about cost.
Contact @HenryCooper for everything from spam proxies to client.
Thank you so much. Really appreciate the help. No spam operation, I work in-house for a business that has several accounts. Legit businesses. Hoping to get enough likes soon to get to level 2.
Iām having this issue too with attempting to verify new accountsā¦ getting stuck loop I canāt get out of. When I click āverify via APIā a scripted error box is popping up and I get nowhere.
Iām using residential proxies, but I also attempted to use my own IP to see if it made a difference and it did not. Not able to take on any new clients ATM.
