i experimented with the adding friends… i experimented with the adding friends (follow unfollow) method of gaining followers. in an hours worth of work on my own i gained 100+ in a few days. real interactive people who appreciate my artwork. nothing scammy. with Socialupgrade, in a week, paying for their most expensive service, i gained 27 followers. thats it. when i contacted their team they made excuses and said the accounts i gave them to target were private. they are most definitely not. i can see that with my own two eyes do not waste your money. this is a scam and their excuses were alarming as they were untrue (the accounts were not private). highly unprofessional. you can do more in 15 minutes of work then paying for their $100 a month service

Avoid avoid avoid Avoid avoid avoid! Not only did I not gain any real followers but upon cancelling their subscription their service has ruined my brands Instagram account permanently with a constant influx of fake bot accounts coming every few days. I go from 1500 fake followers down to 1000 then suddenly back up again on repeat. This is happening after they emailed suggesting I let them 'send 1000 inactive followers so people are more likely to follow me when they see my account' - I never replied to this email but they went ahead and done it anyway and now my account is messed up and full of bots.

Fast followers but not great quality ones I have gained a good amount of followers quickly but many seem to be from a lot of foreign countries that may not be the most beneficial target for my brand. I wish there was a way to get better targeted demographics. Some of the profiles that follow me also look like spam which I feel is a give away of me buying my followers.

Good, but needs work I don’t think they are mindful of the accounts they have you follow or pictures that they like on your behalf. I have seen inappropriate pages that showed porn or penis pics that were liked on my behalf and gave these accounts the wrong idea and they felt they could contact me inappropriately. I think they need to stick to finding accounts that have the same interests as shown on your page. Other than that, the followers are real and active.

I've definitely gotten a huge following… I've definitely gotten a huge following increase. However, some of the people who were followed were very strange and I had to go back and unfollow. They were very suspicious and some were profile of people who were posting nude pics, just very distasteful. Also, my only other complaint is the new followers don't actually like a lot of the content being posted. Right now, I have 10.5 followers but what's he point if I only get 300 or so like per post. I think more active users should be followed an pay close attention to who you are following! These people are now sending nude DMs or weird messages and it's honestly become not worth it.
