\"Instagram\n<\/picture>\n

In our always-on, hyper-connected digital world of shameless selfies, meal prepping promotion and misleading jet-setting vacation trips, anyone can become an influencer due to the possibilities from social media.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re an established business or just starting your own personal brand, Instagram<\/a> is a powerful platform enabling you to build a following, grow your brand and increase profits.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re new to Instagram, consider yourself late to the party. Starting at zero in a highly saturated community can make climbing Mt Everest seem easy. That\u2019s because, as fun, as it is to post photos, comment on other posts and follow your friends if you\u2019re a business, you need to be active on social media 24 hours a day.<\/p>\n

Truth is, unless you\u2019re Gary V, being \u201con\u201d 24\/7\/365 is impossible. That\u2019s where automation comes in. And in order to do it properly and protect yourself, you\u2019re going to need dedicated proxies<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Instagram Automation<\/span><\/h2>\n

With a monthly user base of 350 million, Instagram provides a plethora amount of potential tra\ufb03c you could be driving to your account.<\/p>\n

But because manually driving this tra\ufb03c is impossible, developers created bots to tackle all the mundane and mind-numbing tasks automatically.<\/p>\n

<\/span>How It Works<\/span><\/h3>\n

Bots do everything that you would do but on a larger and hopefully more strategic scale. It\u2019s very easy to go down a long rabbit hole of wasted hours when you mindlessly peruse Instagram.<\/p>\n

From the oddly satisfying videos to the adorable cats to the laugh-out-loud memes, liking, commenting and following users is entertaining to most. At best, these types of engagement provoke others to follow in a reciprocal matter.<\/p>\n

But as mentioned above, you can\u2019t possibly do this at all hours of the day. And especially if you have multiple accounts you\u2019re managing. Bots, on the other hand, have this artificial superpower.<\/p>\n

There are a handful of automation tools<\/a> at your disposal and you\u2019ll want to do your due diligence to find the best ones for you.<\/p>\n

Regardless of the type of automation tool you use, you want to set up your bot to act in a way that lines up with your goal. One of your goals should be authenticity. Or at the very least, appear to be authentic.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not careful in setting up your bot, you run the risk of putting yourself in some pretty awkward situations. The point of automating is to like, follow and comment without a human’s involvement.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll want to set up your comments to be generic enough to where it\u2019s appropriate for a variety of hashtags and accounts but specific enough to appear authentic and genuine.<\/p>\n

Some may argue that because the bot will like and comment generically, it cannot provide genuine engagement. The truth is, you can setup your bot to provide value in an authentic and genuine way in a hyper-focused strategy.<\/p>\n\n

<\/span>The Ethics of Instagram Automation<\/span><\/h2>\n

Like all ethics-related questions, the use of automation for Instagram and other social media is a toss-up. It is, however, a direct violation of Instagram\u2019s terms. That\u2019s why the popular automation tool Instagress was shut down<\/a>.<\/p>\n
