Ig growth method recommendations

How are you? I would like the advice of someone expert in instagram growth, I am a photographer and influencer, my account has 42k followers, never buy, never use any program, never anything, just good content. In recent months I do not upload even 20 followers per day. I know all change and that’s why I want to implement new techniques without putting my account at risk (most important) I would like to hear recommendations of techniques that you use yourself, not what you have seen. I planned to follow accounts and comment on hashtags in my niche, what amount do you recommend per hour / day? It gives results? I’m looking for 50-100 followers per day or something like that, If I can do manually better.

Thanks!

50 - 100 manually following and unfollowing would be good. I do about 120 a day, and have been getting anywhere from 20 - 50 follows a day

How many people you follow per hour or how you manage it to never put your account on risk and when/how you unfollow them later?

I look up accounts that fit my niche and follow about 120 a day. I then unfollow everyone that did not follow back. I do this in one hour every night all at once. First unfollow, then follow. This account is over a year old and has great engagement, so I think I’ve built up good trust.

If you have a very new account, you will not be able to do this at once in my experience. I have another account that is still new, and i can only follow and unfollow about 20 at once before I’m blocked. After a few hours I’m able to follow again, but I choose not to so I can avoid problems.

I have only gotten in big trouble by using 3rd party apps. If you manually f/u, then check to see when it blocks you from following anymore. As soon as you’re blocked, STOP. I usually just stop for the day at that point

Instead of looking for new ways to grow, perhaps look at the bases first, for example: hashtags. Could you give me an example of a hashtag set you’d use? If there’s any hashtag you’re using that has over 1MIL posts don’t bother using it because there’s too much competition, instead look for low competition high search term hashtags, the very best ones are the ones that Instagram recommends in explore and have 10-100K posts.

Pay attention to the ratio of followers/following as well. people who have a discrepancy in this ratio usually dont follow back

But you follow 120 one day and in the next day unfollow that people and follow other 120? Is not too much actions in one hour? Isn’t better to wait sometime?

No, I follow 120 and unfollow all in the same day. I have not gotten in trouble, but this is MY experience. It is different for other people. But my advice for you just to start, just try following 50 one day and then unfollowing the next day.

My account is 7 years old, and if I follow 50 at morning and other 50 at night is different than 100 at same time right?

The time doesn’t matter but you just have to make sure you don’t exceed a high rate hourly or daily
