I’ve been running a food blog on Instagram for a couple of years, and the first year was so slow. Even though my content was great, it felt like no one was seeing it. I wanted to grow my account quickly but was hesitant about buying followers, mostly because I didn’t want to look fake. However, after doing a lot of research, I found some Instagram engagement services that seemed pretty legit. I decided to try it out with a small number of followers—nothing huge, just to test the waters. I was surprised by how much it helped. What I noticed is that, once I had a few more followers, my posts started getting more interaction. It’s like there’s a social proof element where people are more likely to follow and engage when they see others are doing the same. Of course, I didn’t rely solely on purchased followers. I kept posting high-quality content and engaging with my audience. The initial boost just helped me get over that initial hump where it felt like I was invisible. Now, my page is growing steadily, and I still focus on organic engagement. But buying those first few followers gave me the jumpstart I needed. If you’re thinking about trying it, I’d say go for it, but only if you’re careful about which services you use. Avoid anything that looks like a scam. Stick with services that provide real followers and make sure they align with your niche so it doesn’t seem off.
