About these guides
Who writes the guides?
The same small team that runs the shop. We update them when Instagram or TikTok change something that matters to buyers.
Are the guides trying to sell me something?
Each one mentions our packs where relevant, but the advice stands whether or not you order. Several guides suggest not buying at all in some situations.
Can I suggest a topic?
Yes, email support@buyinstafollowers.uk. If enough people ask the same thing, it becomes a guide.
