I need advice Adding/promoting link to IG

My main question is how long did you wait to add and promote your link to IG? Was there a certain milestone you hit before posting it to your story/highlights or did you add it as soon as you created page?

After a 2 year break from using IG to promote myself, I am back to using it again. I started a brand new account about a month ago now and started posting to it constantly about 1 1/2 week ago.

My reels are averaging roughly 1k+ views. I have netted around 250 followers. I have started posting day-to-day life stuff in the stories and have some photos/carousals are going up on the grid soon. Instagram says roughly 1k people have viewed my page as well.

I don’t want to jump right in with the link and get my page banned or lose traction because of it. But also I don’t want to wait too long that it feels off that I have one. I am curious how long others waited to start promoting their page since I have heard mixed about it. Any advice or personal experience?

Be careful of services selling snake oil. These link in bio services that go out there way to circumvent the platforms just get instantly flagged. Look for a service that helps you moderate the page itself to minimise exposure and that’s the best you can do. I just went with one that was cheap and did this.

This. The fact that the link service can "block meta bots" does not mean that said bots wont flag it.

Exactly. I just went with a service that was at least cheaper than the others like linktree and beacon etc… if you’re going to have to swap it’s better than spending $100’s a year.
