^^^^ with instagress you can start and stop the 3 day counter. You'll know what I mean when you use it.

I'm interested in knowing how you fare out between the two platforms if you keep the variables the same. Keep me posted fam

RE: On Instagram vs Online Dating-an analysis
Ive been using Instagress forever now.... But just with the like function. Its pretty slow but the growth is organic.

I haven't closed any local girls with Instagram so far after as most the interest I have had from girls is overseas. I am fairly confident though if I traveled to the countries where they are located I'd have better luck.

I am talking with one local girl from Insta now and then we switched to Snapchat but I haven't been able to get her to commit to a date due to Finals at Uni. Bulgarian girl.

Instagram just released its own version of Snapchat which I think it's possibly going to end Snapchat. It's going to be even more important now to have your Insta on point.

Yeah this is going to make managing an IG that much more of a pain in the ass.

What is the rule for posting pictures of yourself with hot girls? Does this scare other girls off or show that you have high value? I'm slowly building up my IG game and trying to get it just right.

I am currently pipelining for a trip to Bucharest in 2 weeks time. Surprisingly so far IG is beating free tinder all the way. Spending same amount of time, but getting more leads. Chats are more fun, girls are prettier.

I'll second that question. Are quality insta pictures the same as for Tinder? (such as discussed in this epic, epic thread: /thread-45167.html)

Assuming we don't have a Blizerian budget full of daddy's laundered money...hahaha

Yeah I've been thinking about that too.

I mean, there are several angles:

1.) Yourself & your life: Works well if you look good and are often at cool locations. I think if you live in NYC or Tokyo etc. that would be a good approach. I personally would be hesitant about putting too many photos of myself on Insta though. I don't look bad but I just don't really like to share photos of me online. At the moment my surroundings are not really that photogenic either.

2.) You focus on a theme. That could be travel photography or some other visual theme (e.g. architecture photography etc.). You just have to find something that you're interested in. But it also depends on your location of course.

3.) You set up photo shoots especially for Insta. That's definitely the most effort. I.e. getting models from some model websites or just good looking friends. If you come up with a good theme, though, that could be a good way for meeting girls too - i.e. you meet them for taking pictures and then you DHV on Insta.

Thoughts?

This is actually something I've been looking into going into. More so for marketing than game, I feel like model pages is a good way to get a really popular instagram page, it's a pretty easy sell if you got some slutty looking hot chicks.

IMO quality pictures are basically any pictures which show you from good side.

First of all make sure picture quality itself is good, I mean not grainy, enough light. Any fresh smartphone can produce good quality picture, even selfies.

Quality pictures:
Photos of travel, try to make them less banal, add some humor. You in the mountains, you on the beach, you in the jungle on the tree, swinging on a liana like tarzan.
Photos of cool activities. You wakeboarding, you swimming with dolphins, jumping with parachute, whatever you can come up with.
Photos of your talents and doing sport. Same goes with videos. You singing, you playing an instrument, doing a fancy yoga pose or handstand, you beating the shit out of someone. Whatever you are good at show it.
Photos of you having fun with your friends, at a party or whatever. You should have a big smile on your face.
Photos of you looking cool. Smart blazer, nice scarf, cool haircut, big beard, perfect set of sixpack. Show off what you like the most about yourself.

I also include photos of cool things I see, which do not necessarily include me.

I try to mix evenly videos of activities, photos of me, photos of stuff I find cool, selfies. If I go for some fun activity and make 10 amazing pictures I am dying to post right now I only post 2 at a time. And then 2 another day and another. But try to mix it in with something else so it is never 10 photos of me on amazing beach. Make your page look colorful.

Don't post too much at the same time. More than 2 pictures at one time will make people want to unfollow you.

Not quality pictures:
Just see what Asian people post on their IGs and don't to this.
Example: a photo of your bruised leg, a photo of your x-ray and bunch of pill, a photo of everyday food, 10 selfies of you in a row, making blow fish face. Random photos of your parts of the body, feet, arms, palms of your hands.

It is better to post less and more quality than to post regular low quality stuff.

The simplest idea I think is not to post things people see in their everyday life, post something that will create emotions. Something that will make people want to press like button.

RE: On Instagram vs Online Dating-an analysis
Have been playing the online game on-off for a decade; have a theory on how to optimize leads based on my own experiences.

Personally, have better success via social circle but I think this may save others lots of time, money and effort.

Again there is far more detailed info on this forum and this is a general overview.

Obtain burner phone, email and credit card for payments; Use VPN for anonymity

Build a standard Facebook/Mamba/VK, Snapchat, Kik and Instagram profile

Get professional pictures taken; Photoshop if necessary

Create a standard profile to use for OK Cupid, Seeking Arrangement, Badoo, Match and Plenty of Fish; utilize trial subscription. You can throw on your Kik, Snapchat and Instagram to encourage stalking.

A standard profile would contain the same information to maximize your chances and minimize any incongruity should the same girl find you on another site.

Utilize mass openers, ideally 3-5 different ones to prevent spam software catching on. Message no more than 50 leads per website per day.

You can also post ads on CL though it is wiser to use a template email to send once a week.

Download the Tinder, Badoo, OKC, POF and Bumble apps. I hear Happn and Lovoo are good as well. If you have access to a mass liker (Tinder); use it but scrutinize well. Use standard openers. You can throw on your Kik, Snapchat and Instagram to encourage stalking.

For all dating sites and apps; use maximum 2 weeks on - 2 weeks off. It'll help keep you on top of the pile.

For Instagram, start increasing your follower count to 10K as fast as you can. There are two awesome threads here on this. Money well spent.

At this point you've created an online persona separate from your real life where you have automated everything with template openers, profiles and apps.

The cost of investment would be around $500 initially but it will save you hours of your life; you may only need to invest an hour per day maximum and go on with more productive activities.

The sites and apps funnel girls to your IG/Snapchat/Kik; you are accessible but still have to do the legwork. If you are hitting 500 girls per day within an hour and getting a 1% yield for the next step its a plausible system since an average day-game approach takes 10 minutes.

Random idea - I know business cards have been brought up. Anyone thought of creating a purely social media card with your Instagram/Snapchat/Kik QR codes and your name/number? Seems like a classy and cost effective way to get prospects from other avenues and pipeline them.
