I would love if Instagram had a feature to prevent followers that only had one photo.

Yeah I don't get it either

any way they can't get a sucker. I agree not the most efficient way.

I don't understand why people want strangers to follow them anyways. Most people post photos of their friends or lunch or personal things.
I think most people are just insecure.

It's a strange world when people feel like losers if 200+ people aren't following them, even though they live in a small town.

my guess, and it's really just a guess, is that this is for up and coming businesses or 'personalities' trying to gain a social following.
If you somehow come across or are sent to the twitter or fb page of one of these types, you're probably less likely to follow/like them if there's only 5 others following. but if they already have a healthy following, you might think differently?

I understand companies on IG/Twitter want to have a lot of followers, but do you think people notice? If a company (secretly) buys followers to increase their numbers, does it really make them look better?

the instagram street cred follower thing reminds me of when everyone, me incl., used to post how many visitors their home page had with a little counter widget thingie.
this will be just as useless and lol in the near future, mark my goddamn words people. look how many cool people follow me! i'm so popular! omg! (*flips hair back)

I have gotten work and real life networking opportunities from instagram. Think about it, it's no different than a blog. Some people post things like, 'this is me in my new car' or 'this is what I'm having for lunch'.
My stream consists of 98% of 'this is what I'm working on right now'
and because of that, I even got sponsorship from companies, giving me new controllers, software and hardware for free. Things I was thinking of buying for myself too...My suggestion for you freelancers out there is, use it as a marketing tool and you will see positive feedback from it.
I have another account for my clothing company which gives me access to so much networking is not even funny, I'm selling more gear due to instagram than with any other tool online.

Buying followers is pointless though, you want followers that care about what you have to say. Facebook pages is dead, instagram is where is at now.
- Did you use a bot or some service to acquire legit followers though?mg33
- Do you follow other people you respect or other clothing brands to get them to look at your page, or do most of your followers find you?newuser
