The phrase refers to methods or services that claim to provide an increased number of individuals subscribed to an Instagram account without requiring the user to complete a task designed to confirm they are a real person and not an automated bot. An example would be a website offering “instant” subscribers without asking the user to fill out a CAPTCHA or complete a survey.
The purported appeal of such offerings lies in their promise of rapid growth and ease of acquisition. Historically, individuals and businesses have sought to increase their follower counts on social media platforms to enhance perceived credibility, visibility, and influence. However, obtaining subscribers through these avenues often results in low engagement rates and can negatively impact an account’s standing within the platform’s algorithm.
