I was thinking of making this IG journey but i am doing few things so i will include all of it here.
The update will be for the day before i post it. Last 30 days i have 173 clicks, 6 ordered and 4 shipped items resulting in 21$. I got 20 sticky PBN links dripfeeding since September 9th, each day 1 link. They boosted my target kws a lot, but overall kws also. I will leave it to settle down and i wont be buying links anytime soon (i think) . Quality is expensive and i can't afford them atm, i don't want to put my website in danger by buying bad links (also not to waste money).
Keywords: I have 2 kws in top 10, and 15 in top 30. All kws i track are buyer kws with min LMS 590 and maximum 22k. Product price is 300$+ so i also want my low LMS kws to rank.
Clicks: 9
Orders: 0
Earnings: 0
PPC Campaing 1(9 days) : Spent: 33$ (0.10$ CPC) | Earned 62$ (EPC 0.19$) | Profit 29$
PPC Campaing 2(2 days) : Spent: 2,4$ (0.9$ CPC) | Earned 0$ - i will let it run beacuse it is good payout and i have good feeling about it
I have spent total of 40$ , which means 7$ went on testing, still i have some profit.
I started with:
-5 dedicated proxies from expensive provider (10$)
-5 dedicated proxies from another expensive provider (10$)
-50 dedicated proxies from cheap provider ( 36$)
-100 one week old accounts (15$)
-Mass Planner and unlimited account module only since i have rest of needed ones (45$)
-Few domains (5$)
-Smspva deposit (20$)
I bought that many proxies to see if they will make any difference. I am using 1 account per proxy and all accounts got the same treatment from IG (soft bans,pvas,bans). I've lost most of my accounts due to randomnes, links, bad numbers. Now i have 18 accounts left.
I bought 10 three months old accounts and 10 six months old accounts and added them.
1) Likes CAN result in bans - yup, when i first added accounts i made them like 10 posts per day. 18 accounts got pva and ban after due to that, i know it is that because when i stopped likes ban wave stopped.
2) Quality of accounts - If you keep 1 account per proxy, only thing that matters is quality of accounts. A guy is doing the same thing i'm doing and his accounts are alive. The only differece between us is that he is using aged and i am using fresh. For example, on same proxy provider, i add link the one month old account i get instant pva, his don't. We both add weebly link. Mine later get banned, his don't.
3) Don't add pictures - If you are doing BH niche, don't post pictures. When you have pictures people can report them and it can result in ban.
4) Use web 2.0s as prelanders - I know that people have different stories about linking to domain, using subdomains and such. In my experience, it will result in ban at some point in time. Use web 2.0s (weebly, yolasite, blogger, zohosite) and use 1 per account. It is a pain in the ass to make them but it will keep accounts safer. One page pic and button will work.
5) Don't use verification services - You could try using some like smspva.com but i don't advise you to, many people started complaining about them. Their numbers got many of my accounts banned. They get pva and when i verify them they get banned. This is not the issue with my own sims. I have 15 of them + 5 in my household. I pva 3 each.
6) When Submit button is not working, your number is bad
7) Use HashManager all the time - change all picture you use (profile pic, web2.0 pic, button), it CAN result in extra safety
Those are just the stuff i learned on my own skin. I can't think of more right now, but i will add throught the thread.
My account supplier ran out of aged accounts but i've found new guy, i got recommendation from a friend. You can contact him on skype : venit4u
Right now i have:
- 2 accounts in one niche: running for 2 days now on 500 follows, i got 2 clicks and 1 conversion 2 days ago, nothing since then
- 5 accounts different niche: Two accounts got me 6 clicks and 3 conversions in 2 days, resulting in 0.9$. I added 3 more yesterday but i have nothing since then.
- 7 accounts pokemon niche: Yes, people are still making decent money with it, but not me. I have 2 following and 5 unfollowing atm, no clicks yesterday.
- 4 accounts warmed up and ready to go
-20 accounts warming up
I don't know. My best day with 10 accounts was 3$, so i added 10 more on that niche. Got 18 banned the next day. Now i am testing 3 niches and i am trying to think of new ones. I want to keep accounts ready for scaling. I hit a mental block from time to time, but now and then i get some ideas that i put to work. I am used to failing, every time i learn something new.
For now i will monitor it and write down some ideas for niches and for PPC offers.
The thing i am doing wrong, as most people do, is targeting. Pokemons are still earning money and i don't know how to target, that is my weak spot. One thing i did wrong also was getting so many accounts in the start, so i've put a lot of pressure on myself. But i am over it now.
I also think that many people doing IG are using OGads landing pages. So i am trying to move away from those, i still need to check out forum to see if i can get any LPs, or at least ideas. I like OGads because they convert really good.
My god, this is long. I hope i will not make this long posts anytime soon. I am up for advices, i am up for disscusion. Hope this helps to someone. Cheers

Project 2: PPC Campaing
I have started this a week ago, depositing total of 50$. I am testing all kind of offers. I stick with ones that produce clicks so i can track CR and earnings. I never did PPC before, but i will test offers, see which are getting clicks, leaving them. If the CR is good i will let them go for 10 days then i will check at what time they convert best so i can make them run only at those times. I will update it daily, and i will add some overall update about campaings i try.

Project 3: Instagram
Well, first of all regret not jumping on the train at the right time, but i was busy so i need to make up for it now. I started instagram around September 10th and since than i've made 21$ with OGads. I am not happy with it, but at least i learned a lot.
I started with:
-5 dedicated proxies from expensive provider (10$)
-5 dedicated proxies from another expensive provider (10$)
-50 dedicated proxies from cheap provider ( 36$)
-100 one week old accounts (15$)
-Mass Planner and unlimited account module only since i have rest of needed ones (45$)
-Few domains (5$)

I bought 10 three months old accounts and 10 six months old accounts and added them.

7) Use HashManager all the time - change all picture you use (profile pic, web2.0 pic, button), it CAN result in extra safety
8) Warm up:
Day 1: Add accounts and email verify them
Day 2: Add profile pic and add random bio
Day 3: Follow 30-50
Day 4: Follow 50-100
Day 5: Follow 100-200
Day 6: Follow 200-400
Day 7: Ready to go
I use that for fresh accounts, but i jack it up for aged ones. Did not have issues with it.
