🚨 NEW ACCOUNT WARMUP — TIKTOK & INSTAGRAM (3-DAY PROTOCOL)
This applies to both TikTok and Instagram Reels. Both platforms flag new accounts as bots if you skip warmup. Skip it = shadowban or 200-view jail. Follow it = pass the trust score and unlock real views.
SETUP BEFORE DAY 1 (do this first):
- Complete profile 100%: real profile photo (not stock or meme), bio filled out, username relevant to niche
- Enable two-factor authentication, use a valid email
- No links in bio yet
- Post on the mobile app only for the first 10+ posts (no web, no scheduling tools, no API)
❌ AUTO-FLAGS (don't do):
- Posting within 24 hours of account creation
- Links in bio on day 1
- Mass follow / unfollow
- Engaging only in one narrow niche (mix in adjacent content so it looks human)
- Posting multiple times before getting any engagement
- Following everyone who follows you back
- Comments that are just emojis (must be genuine words)
✅ DAY 1 — Pure scroll
- 30+ min on FYP (TikTok) or Reels feed (Instagram)
- Watch videos all the way through, don't skip in repetitive patterns
- Like 15-20 videos in your niche, spread out (not in rapid succession)
- Leave 5-7 genuine comments (real words, not emojis)
