If we want to find someone or know the details of his life, we immediately type in his name on social networks. If the person is found, then we can assume that 100% of the work is done: you can periodically visit his page and be aware of all the changes in his life. Now imagine how many times you yourself have become an object of curiosity and from whom? If you are still an “OK” user, then no problem, here this service is integrated into the interface and the results appear in the form of notifications. But how can I find out who visited my Instagram page?
The standard Instagram interface does not provide the ability to track the page for visits by other users. You can easily see only the “traces” of the visit: likes and comments.
For the curious: “How do you know who Mrs. Hudson likes on Instagram? Elementary Watson!"
How to make a “trap” for guests
Among other things, “My Guests” has one rather funny and interesting feature, thanks to which you can find out exactly who visited your page. In the “ My Profile”
“there is a mode “”
For it to go into operation mode, you need to press the “ Activate”
”after which you will be given a link that you need to enter in the “
Personal site
” line in the page settings.
Now if a person clicks
on this link, you will certainly be notified that he visited your page. This mode is the most reliable and accurate.
Alternative applications
There is also a similar application with analysis, which allows approximately the same capabilities as “My Guests”. We are talking about “ My guests and analysis”
”, here you can not only
check
guests and fans, but also carry out various checks.
For example, you can find out the level
of sympathy of specific friends, that is, understand how interested some people are in your page, how often they visit it and how often they like something.
If you are looking for a person with similar interests
, you can analyze your groups and the groups of this very person.
This way, without unnecessary work and wasting time, you can find out how much you have the same interests and what you can talk about. A very practical
function that can help if you are going to meet this person for the first time, but have absolutely no idea what to talk about.
Every modern social network has both advantages and disadvantages. For example, the disadvantage of the VKontakte site, beloved by many, is that the user cannot see who visited his page. However, the developers of many applications took this into account and created several programs that will help satisfy your curiosity. The fact is that today the so-called VKontakte guest trap is gaining particular popularity. Are you interested in what this is and how this resource works? Then the material in this article is for you!
How to block a competitor's Instagram yourself!
09.25.2020 admin 0 Comments
Let’s immediately decide that without special skills and
abilities, hacking an account and gaining access to it simply will NOT work!
But it is possible to ensure that a competitor’s Instagram account almost completely loses popularity among subscribers, and is subsequently even banned by the Instagram administration for unauthorized actions. There are several ways, and the simplest and most accessible way is to add bots to your competitor’s Instagram account. The method is based on the fact that on Instagram, not all publications are shown to subscribers, but only that part that corresponds to the popularity of the post. That is, in a simple way, we kill the organic reach of the audience with a large number of bots on the account. That is, if a competitor has, say, 10K subscribers, then for the full effect it is necessary to catch up (buy) about 30,000 bots (fake subscribers). Naturally, bots are purchased from special services.
How much does it cost to block a competitor’s Instagram by getting more followers?
If we analyze existing services, the cost will be approximately 0.2 rubles. for one bot . That is, for an account with 10K subscribers it will cost about 6 thousand rubles. How quickly can this be done? This is not a quick thing. If you are in a hurry, a competitor may notice unusual activity on your account and close the account for new subscriptions. Therefore, in reality, blocking an account using this method will take 2-6 weeks of active work. During this time, INSTAGRAM will at least understand that the account is not of high quality, and the main subscribers are bots. And the “smart tape” will leave no chance for a competitor to reach living people.
What services should I use to destroy live tape?
Here, I’ll just give a first-hand account from one of my clients. He independently tried to create bots on someone else’s account.
How I tried to catch up with bots on someone else's Instagram: an experiment
Do you want to use bots to comment and like and “left follow” other people’s accounts on your behalf? And why most Instagram automation is a trap to avoid. I’ll tell you how to make an Instagram bot work—not to mention make it work well.
What is Instagram automation?
The Instagram automation I'm talking about is bots that "read" other people's posts, follow accounts, and comment on your behalf.
On any service, you define your target audience, and your trained pet bot scans accounts that may be of interest to you, interacting with them in a predetermined, natural-like manner. Ideally, the bot should do something you could do yourself. Typically, automatic likes on Instagram are too sweet to be true, and buying Instagram followers results in inflated follower counts, zero engagement, and a long list of obviously fake bot followers.
What's important here:
- People don't like bots and can tell when a like, follow or comment is fake; and therefore:
- Instagram actively discourages practices that degrade the user experience; and therefore:
- Services that offer fake Instagram accounts should try to avoid detection of fakes, otherwise there is a risk of service shutdown .
For example, in 2021, Instagram shut down a number of automation services, such as the formerly popular Instagress tool. Since then, it has been unclear where to even find a working comment bot on Instagram.
While I was trying to decide which tool to use, I read about the “safest and most reliable” services, according to several different experts. The problem is that even experts admit that many bot providers do not work correctly or simply do not produce the expected results. Meanwhile, the providers themselves are not so convincing. For example, read the FAQ from the InstaRocket :
Question: How do I know if the service is effective?
Answer: You can try our free trial version for 3 days. The trial version and monthly subscription are exactly the same.
However, you have to pay for each tool you try. And don't expect the service to tell you in advance if it's down. As I have found, this can lead to wasted time and money.
To be clear, there are legitimate Instagram automation tools and software that take the hard work out of it without going overboard with behavior that could get your account suspended. What needs to be done clearly:
- Plan your Instagram posts in advance to avoid last-minute agonizing
- Take advantage of Instagram analytics reports provided automatically with the data that matters to you.
- Use hashtag search and monitoring tools that show conversations your brand or account wants to participate in (or just keep in the know)
The experience itself is an experiment: Some boring tests on two left INSTAGRAM accounts:
@akaprincessroxxxx (an Instagram account where I re- posted photos of my neighbor's dogs). The test started with:
- Last week, 26 interactions and 12 accounts were achieved.
- 787 subscribers
- 37 subscriptions
@princessrosebud2thesxxxx (my non-profit account where I posted even more photos of my neighbor's dog) started with:
- 5 likes on my last post
- 758 subscribers
- 2 subscriptions
Explanation: I bought 1000 "regular" followers for both accounts back in October for another experiment - it's interesting to note how that number has dropped over the past few months. So let's go through the various steps I took to get bots on both of these accounts.
Step 1: Sign up for a bot service and spend 3 hectic days wondering if it works.
First, I tried InstaRocket, which supposedly automates likes, comments, shares, direct messages, follows, and unfollows.
I signed up for a free three-day trial and entered my ideal audience parameters to have Instarocket find, like, and comment on accounts that like or post photos with specific "dog" hashtags, live in specific countries, or follow major influencers or brand accounts with dogs, which I think is aimed at a similar audience. And then I wrote some interesting comments that Instarocket will automatically send to me to draw attention to my account.
On the first day after the free subscription, nothing happened. My request was listed as "pending." Two days later I had two options: email support or buy a monthly subscription. So I wrote to Instarocket support to find out if my account would be up and running before the three-day promotion ended. I never received an answer.
Step 2. Trying to find a second bot to automate (one that actually works)
While I was waiting for a response, I thought maybe I'd try a better Instagram automation service. First, I tried Instamber, “the most reliable and effective Instagram automation bot,” according to a recent ranking of the services. But the registration page gave me a 404 error. Oh, and that's a bummer!
Step 3. Okay, I'll try the service with bots No. 3
I was already ready to significantly increase my budget for the experiment and shell out the 6K rubles that Ektor.io wanted for its software, which boasts that it uses “Smart facial recognition software on account pages” (hmm, okay) and “ 100% undetectable by Instagram " (I doubt this is true). Perhaps stupidly, I was even ready to download the service software onto my computer for the sake of an exciting experiment. Unfortunately, when it became clear that I would need to “download Python” to do this (isn’t Python a language?), I gave up on this idea. I decided to look for another way.
Step 4. Okay, I'll go back to service number 2 and launch the campaign.
At this point, the Instamber registration page was already loading. So I decided to try another three-day trial. This time I signed up using my account: @princessrosebud2thesexxxx. Instamber is not as beautiful and intuitive as InstaRocket. On the other hand, their support team sends you response emails (more on this later). The toolbar basically consisted of buttons encouraging me to pay more money .
First, I ran a 24-hour “promotion” targeting fans of the @andrewkxxx page. The account has a huge following, based almost entirely on photos of Momo's gorgeous collie face.
Source: @andrewknххх. After 24 hours, the Instamber bot had followed 69 accounts, liked 138 posts, viewed 958 stories, and left 42 comments on my behalf.
Result? I got 8 new subscribers. Instamber tells me the conversion rate is 0.7%, although the math is a little... unclear. The new accounts that the bot has been following mean that my feed is now full of cute dog photos, and I'm not complaining. However, I can't help but wonder what kind of unpleasant interactions are happening on my account.
When I check, it turns out that Instamber mostly just leaves an excessive amount of emojis in people's regular posts. These comments don't seem plausible to me, but they worked for my 8 new subscribers.
Step 5. Go back and check bot #1
Meanwhile, my InstaRocket account, after two of my three free days, is still "pending" and showing no activity. Except I lost 8 followers.
So, I make up my mind and pay 6.5K rubles. for a personal plan for one month. But now I need to wait for the administrator to approve my order. (Still no response from support.)
Step 6. Try a second campaign with less spam
I'm very curious: is there a legitimate way to automate your Instagram interactions for growth? Using automated bots will never be legal, but perhaps there is a way to use them at least sometimes? Some hackers think this is possible. So, I'm going to do one last experiment, doing everything I can to avoid spamming and ruining my account for myself and everyone else who interacts with my dog bot. This means clarifying and limiting what I allow Instamber to do.
In Settings > Actions, I uncheck the boxes until my bot is allowed to view stories and like posts. I do not allow following or commenting on posts. According to these settings, my Instagram bot will “like” 1 to 3 user posts and possibly watch their stories.
This gives potential followers four different opportunities to see my account, and it's a gentler approach because I don't do anything intrusive or overtly inauthentic, like leaving creepy emojis or following them out of the blue.
So, what happens after 24 hours of automatic installation of likes without spam?
Alas, Instamber asked me to pay for an additional month, so I paid 1200 rubles. They then asked me to download the software. I did it. But my Macbook refused the supplied software, and so I emailed support, who repeatedly told me that I needed to "install bluestacks as an Android emulator and run Social Bridge and Instagram through it." I confess, I didn’t do this.
Step 7. Analyze the results
24-hour likes + comments + promotion subscription (100 RUR)
- 8 new subscribers
- 24 o
- stories
- 67 new accounts that my account is subscribed to
48-hour “likes only” promotion without spam (RUB 1,200)
- 2 new subscribers
- 5 likes on my latest photo
InstaRocket
There was no promotion because despite extending my payment for another month, my account is still pending. And still no word from support. But I:
- Lost 6 subscribers
- Got 10 likes from my dog robot.
- Received 2 warnings about suspicious activity
On the one hand, I'm surprised that my experiment was so shockingly ineffective. On the other hand, Instagram has been at war with automation services for years. It makes sense that a company that generated $9 billion in ad revenue in 2021 would have the resources to render bots virtually useless.
Instagram Botization Lessons
There are no legal and safe Instagram botization services. Services websites will tell you that they are safe, reliable and effective. The sites lie. Even if the bots work (which is very doubtful), the service can be disabled at any time. Even worse, your account may be limited or suspended for violating Instagram platform policies . For example, when I linked my account to Instamber, I was notified of a “suspicious login attempt.”
Not once during the experiment did I feel confident, secure, or relaxed. I was embarrassed and scared to give my credit card information to services. I didn't feel comfortable downloading "left" software onto my computer. The prices for services are arbitrary, and many of them look like outright fraud. Do they even work? Many people don't, but no one will know until you pay. At the end of the week I just felt a little embarrassed for tarnishing my neighbor's dog's reputation online.
If you're in charge of a company's professional account, and you really don't want to risk receiving a push notification that says, "We've noticed rogue account activity" or "Your account information has been compromised," then you shouldn't bother with botting yourself. " More importantly, you risk alienating your fans, customers, and audiences with weird behavior.
The technology is clunky and the tech support is bad!
Instamber wanted me to download the software, an Android emulator, and a custom app. All in order to prevent further geographical inconsistencies. I think there were glitches with the VPN as well. Meanwhile, when I sent an email to Instarocket support, they sent it straight to the trash.
The days of skyrocketing Instagram metrics are over. So in many ways, a lot of brands and big companies are no longer super popular. Additionally, now that Instagram monitors and limits ping requests to its API, no automation or service can realistically handle the volume I envisioned at the beginning of this post. And if in 2017, when we first conducted this experiment, the number of subscribers on the account increased from 338 to 1050 with the help of Instagress robots, then today I have only 8 new subscribers, many of which seem quite fake, a few story views and only about 30 likes. After a few weeks, I'm also starting to suspect that my accounts are now permanent bot magnets, even though my credit card isn't being charged.
What would happen if I spent this week of experimenting on genuine engagement, great content of my own on INSTAGRAM? I'm going to go out on a limb and say that not only would I have more followers, but I would already be relaxing in a sauna or blue pool somewhere after a job well done.
Save your time and nerves, preserve the image of your company. Let the professionals handle the competition!
Guests and fans
Despite the fact that the VK social network itself does not have the function of viewing page guests, anyone can download and install applications that will help them find out this information. However, you should understand that you will not be able to see everyone, only those who have been active on your page or fallen into a trap. So, going to the “My Applications” section, enter the name “My Guests and Fans”, then launch it. In the appropriate section you can, while doing some action. That is, if a person just came to you and left, he will not appear in the application, but if, say, he likes a photo, you will see him. Of course, this program cannot be called too informative, but it is still better than nothing.
Another similar application is called “My friends (connections, guests)”. It operates similarly to the previous one, differing only in the interface. Thus, as you already understood, with the help of these applications you will find out who came to visit you only if this user performs at least one active action.
Ways to view guests
Some people come in to check what a certain person is doing at the moment, to see if their “online” icon next to their avatar is glowing
“VKontakte”, look through photos, read other people’s posts on the wall. And at the same time, visitors remain confident that the person whose page is being studied so carefully will never know about it. After all, the site officially does not have the function of viewing page visitors. But is this really so? The main question of all server users today remains: “How to see the guests on VKontakte?” Is it possible? And since demand, as we know, creates supply, today you can find many offers, programs and sites where you can watch VKontakte guests.
Find the My Guests app
To search for this service you need:
Important! If this item is not present then:
- select My settings;
- go to the General tab;
- check the Applications box.
- enter in the search bar: My guests;
- choose the first one from all the proposals.
Installation
Once the required service has been found, you need to proceed to installing the application directly. It is worth noting that the installation takes place on the VK page, and not on a personal computer.
Important! Before launching, be sure to read the application rules and only if you agree, proceed to installation. The rules may state that your data will be used by third parties.
You must also allow access to:
Installation process:
- click on the “Launch application” button;
- wait for loading.
The following window will appear:
Like most services, this one has paid and free services. The latter are quite enough for the average user.
Setting up and viewing visitors
This stage is quite simple.
Enough:
- select the guests section;
- indicate the period of interest for the search (day, week or month);
- Click on the “Guest List” button.
After loading, a list of visitors will appear.
In order to understand how to watch your guests again, it is enough to have simple knowledge of launching any VK application.
In the same menu list, located to the right of the avatar, there will be the name “My Guests”, or it will be in the application list itself.
Important! Such services show only those who performed some action on your page (click, like, etc.). If you just came in and left, it is impossible to see such a guest.
Precisely based on the fact that only an active visitor can be caught, it is necessary to stimulate him to that very action. To do this, this service offers to install a trap for VKontakte guests.
Simple steps:
- in the running application, select “More guests”;
- read the instructions and follow them.
As a rule, it is necessary:
Or post a Secret status on your wall; to do this, just click the Allow button and Confirm posting in the window that appears.
How does the trap work?
Video: VKontakte guests - how to find out
How to find out who watched a video on Instagram but didn't like it
Let's talk about standard options for subscribers looking for how to see who watched a video on Instagram but didn't like it:
- launch the official client;
- look for a post published in the Feed;
- under the video you can see a triangle icon with the number of passes;
- Tap the total views counter to open the Views and Marks window.
After the completed actions, the number of users who added a like and their names are displayed. You must remember why you won’t be able to get a list of fans who simply viewed the material - the social network’s privacy policy.
How to increase the number of guests
Another function is to increase visitors. Helps you quickly find friends, a soul mate, attract clients and customers, and simply become more popular.
This service gives:
- up to 100,000 new profile visitors per day;
- increase in subscribers;
All people who visit your page are included in the guest list. If you want to track their activity, you can use the “My Guests” application in VKontakte. With its help, you can collect all the necessary statistics, see who visited your page, and increase its popularity (see).
We need to add an application to our personal VK page. To do this, go to the “Applications” section, and in the search type “My guests”. The very first option on the list will be the option we need.
Click on the icon. A window should open with a full description and an offer to install. Click the “Launch application” button.
Let's look at the available options.
Fourth method: Smartphone application
There are many applications in the Google Play Market and App Store for tracking statistics of profile visits on Instagram. One of these is “ Analytics for Instagram ”:
- Install the application from the Play Market https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lyticsinst.
- Launch it.
- Click the “Log in with Instagram” button.
- Enter your account information and click on the “Login” button.
- The “Guests” page will open, where you can see when and which user last visited the page.
How the application works my guests in contact
Viewing guests is the main function. So let's start right away with the Guests tab. Open it.
Guests
Here we will see a list of all users who recently visited our page (see). Unfortunately, it will not be visible what they were doing, the very fact of visiting us will simply be noted.
Pay attention to the list right away - there are two categories. Users who participate in the application on a paid basis are the first group. They appear at the top of the list. Due to this, you are guaranteed to see them, and you may be interested in viewing their page. This way they increase their popularity.
Their distinctive feature is the heart in the lower right corner of the photo. And the “Add as friends” link.
But immediately behind them are those users who are truly your guests. Under their avatar you can see the date and time when they visited your page.
If you click on their profile photo (see), you will go to their personal page. You can see if this person is interesting to you, comment on his photos (see), send messages, etc. (see).
Promotion
You can purchase a paid membership on this tab.
This service works according to the following principle.
You pay for participation, and those users who use the application begin to show your profile on the “Guests” tab. We have already seen such an example in the previous step. If a person is interested in you, he can go to your page and add you as a friend. Nothing complicated.
The easiest way to start promoting is to buy a ready-made package. Open the tab, select the appropriate option, and click the “Buy” button.
The calculation is carried out using the internal currency of VKontakte - votes. We've already sorted it out.
If you are interested in more powerful promotion, it makes sense to configure the parameters of your target audience. Then your advertisement will be shown only to the category of users that you define.
Go to the “Manual configuration” tab. Here we configure each of the points:
- Who to promote? You have the opportunity to order advertising for any user who is your friend. Or show your page
- Decor . Specify what data you want to show next to your avatar
- The most important thing is to choose the parameters of your target audience. Specify the gender, age and city of residence of the users to whom you want to show your advertising
- Use the slider to determine the desired number of votes you are willing to spend. The number of impressions will be automatically calculated
You can sort the results by week, month, and for the entire time you used the application. The rating is simply shown in graphical format.
All about friends
On this tab you can see a small report about the activity of your friends.
A total of four reports are available:
My profile
On the last tab, you will be shown brief account statistics.
These seem to be all the current functions of the My Guests application. In addition, a short video review.
Setting a Trap
For this method you will need to use the VKontakte social network and install one small application:
- go to the main VKontakte profile page;
- in the side menu select the “ Games ” tab;
- Then enter the name of the required application in the search bar “SearchVS" This service integrates special trap links into which everyone who clicks on it will fall. Moreover, it has a completely standard appearance and will not arouse any suspicion;
- open the application, allow access rights to the account and launch the program;
- Next, the activity page will be displayed, here you will find information about who has been removed from friends, added, liked, etc.;
- then open the tab "Guests of your page", in the new window, click on the option "Manage traps";
- in the new dialog box, select “ Create a new trap ”;
- Copy the link to your Instagram profile into the empty field. You can find out the link by looking in the address bar of your browser, it looks like this;
- then click "Get the link" A new link will be generated, which will be practically no different from the real one, except for the domain;
- copy the received link;
- go to the “ Edit Page ” section and select “Contacts” in the right side menu;
- looking for the field "Personal site", paste the copied link and save the changes. If a user wants to go to an Instagram page by following this link through a VKontakte profile, the user will receive notifications about this and will know who visited and viewed the account.
Solution to the problem:
But, today a new, unique program has been created that will track all curious users! This program is called SearchBC. It will allow you to identify visitors to your page, not by likes, comments and posts, but in a slightly different way. Her job is to create false links to pages such as sprashivai.ru, ask.fm
and Instagram. And now all the most curious people who follow this link will be displayed on your screen.
Very often people come to your page who want to read your answers to their insidious anonymous questions, but no such luck, they will immediately fall into a trap. This program is very popular because it is quite effective. A link to a trap is indistinguishable from a regular link to your page.
To create such a fake link, you just need to enter it into the input field in the application and click the “Get Link” button. Then you simply place it on your wall or in a special field on VKontakte and wait. Very soon a considerable number of users will fall into your trap. And now you will know who visits your pages and when. So we wish you good luck in such a treacherous business!
Is it possible to find out who asked me an anonymous question in f3?
The answer to this question can be given in the affirmative. This is a utility used for communication. The page owner will need to go to the developer’s website and download the product. The application store should be selected based on the OS with which the gadget operates. The program is automatically downloaded to the device. Processes carried out:
- A personal profile is being registered.
- An avatar is installed.
- Personal data is recorded.
- Statements are written - open or anonymous.
Users are allowed to write messages and transfer them to the story section. You can post engaging content. If necessary, it is decorated. It is worth using emoticons, pictures and videos. They are allowed to be taken from the gallery.
The desire for such a plan is contrary to the general purpose of the utility. There is no official and legal solution. Modern developers try to do a lot to ensure that information is not disclosed. Even in the paid version, it is not allowed to ask users their name and other personal information.
The information specified and indicated in the utility is recorded. They gather in the depths of the network. To get information, you will need to seek help from professional hackers. Officially and legally, information is presented on the following grounds:
- Requirements of government agencies;
- Tax audit;
- Order of law enforcement officials.
You can find special portals on the Internet, after going to which you are asked to download the application and view hidden data. You don’t need to trust such resources, they are scammers. They request personal data, which they take for themselves and use for illegal reasons.
