Why Ghost Followers Matter?

[dlane1987]

Instagram has a few algorithms to determine many things
automatically. These are not publicly known but someone who has been
around long enough to discover them having an advantage. Have you ever
wondered how users get placed on the discover page? It is mainly because
the majority of the users following them are interacting with their
pictures.
This is known as behavior flow. The better the flow of
interest from your page the more popular you seem. These blank followers
are holding your ratio down stopping you from reaching that discovery
page. Lets put it into perspective for you. Lets say you have 100 people
following and only 5 hit the like button on your new photo. This tells
Instagram that either 95 didn’t care or missed it. Either way its bad
news.
A good ratio is about 25% of interaction from the accounts
following you. Them not caring may not be that case. you could have many
Ghosts Following you. These rouge accounts can not harm you but are
deceitful. As they can help grow your numbers but that’s just about it.
Practically useless.
