You know.. all this talk about algorithms sure makes me question people’s common sense. I mean.. seriously?

If Instagram sees that a bunch of low quality, random accounts are all of a sudden following you.. they’re going to notice the pattern and they’re going to diminish your reach.

Why? Because you’re not adding any value to the platform in the first place, otherwise you’d be getting followers.

Because someone that understands how Instagram works, and what Instagram wants to see is going to try harder to gain followers the right way. Instagram isn’t stupid.
