THE CONCEPT OF ACTION BLOCK

A lot of you are probably wondering what is an action block? Well, this is a penalty given by Instagram to people who perform some actions too often in a short period of time. For example, I go and follow 800 people in 5 minutes, after I did this, there is a big probability for me to get action blocked and not be able to follow more people for a certain period of time. This is created by Instagram because they wanted to stop people from using bots.

THE TYPES OF ACTION BLOCKS

On Instagram, there are different types of action blocks. Basically, you can get action blocked for any action completed too many times. You can get action blocked for likes, follows, comments, posting, and even for unfollowing too many people at once! Also, there exist action blocks that literally doesn't let you perform any action at all. By the way, action blocks last for longer every time you get one. The first action block can only last 8 hours, the second one maybe a day or two, but you shouldn’t play with it, because one time I got an action block for three whole weeks!

HOW TO PREVENT GETTING ACTION BLOCKED

It really hurts your growth when you get action blocked. So you have to try to prevent it from happening. It’s really simple, just don’t complete too many actions at once. I think that at the very start you shouldn’t complete more than 100 same actions per hour (for example, don’t follow more than a hundred people per hour), but as you grow, this number should lover to about 40–50 same actions per hour. Well, when it comes to liking posts, you can like even more than 50 per hour and you will be safe.
