We Tested Social Growth Engine for 60 Days — Here’s What Happened
With so many Instagram growth tools out there, we wanted to see if any of them still work — and if you can grow your account without breaking Instagram’s rules. We spent two months using Social Growth Engine and tracked our results. Here’s what we found (and what you should know before trying it).
How We Tested
We created a new Instagram account in the fitness niche and signed up for Social Growth Engine’s basic plan. Over 60 days, we tracked follower growth, engagement (likes/comments), and checked for any issues with Instagram’s terms. We did not use any other growth tools or paid ads during this period.
