Instagram: buying an account - does that make sense?

If you want to have more followers on Instagram, but don't start from scratch, you can buy existing Instagram accounts. Then you already have several thousand followers, depending on the offer. We clarify whether such a purchase makes sense in our practical tip.

Instagram: buying an account - does that make sense?

• Before you act hastily, you should first think about the price of an Instagram account. Up to 10 cents must currently be paid per follower. An account with around 15, 000 followers costs between $ 300 and $ 1, 500.
• Accounts for little money are always offered on eBay or other sales platforms. A recent eBay account with 112, 000 followers went for just $ 325.
• The problem with such an account purchase is often that you receive almost no information about the followers. So it may well be that the original account owner also bought the followers and therefore no real community is created.
• In the worst case, the followers are so-called "bots". These are computer-generated Instagram accounts, which are only intended to increase the number of followers. In such a case you would have a "dead community" that will ultimately bring you no added value at all.
• "Fameswap.com" is a reputable sales platform. Several hundred accounts are offered for sale every day. Using a contact form, you can contact the owner before buying and learn more about the followers.

Instead of a full Instagram account, you can also buy individual Instagram followers. We will explain how this works in another practical tip.
