More and more cross-border sellers and content creators are using Instagram to expand overseas markets, but they also encounter the problem of account closures from time to time. Some are blocked by risk control right after registration, and some are suddenly unable to log in after a few days of operation. How many days does an Instagram account closure usually last? What causes it and how to quickly restore the account? This article provides you with a comprehensive analysis from a practical perspective
There are three types of account suspension on Instagram. The first is temporary account suspension, which is common in operation intervals or abnormal behaviors, such as sudden large number of likes and follows. The second is temporary account suspension, which usually receives a prompt "Your account has been temporarily locked". The restriction usually lasts from 24 hours to 7 days. The third is account suspension, which is common in serious violations or multiple triggers of risk control. There are more such problems.
The number of days the account is blocked depends on the violation level and account performance.
- The first abnormal behavior is usually blocked for 24 hours or 72 hours. The system observes whether the account is a robot.
- If risk control is triggered multiple times, some accounts will be frozen for more than 7 days and need to appeal before they can be restored.
- Serious violations such as posting sensitive content, illegal advertising, bulk registration, etc. may result in a permanent ban
After understanding these account blocking mechanisms, let’s look at the common reasons for account blocking.
1 Using unclean IP addresses or proxy tool IPs shared by multiple people can easily trigger risks
2. The registration environment is abnormal, similar to registering multiple accounts on the same device in a short period of time.
3. Modify profile picture and login location at intervals
4. Rapidly batch-like comments or platform attention substitution is unnatural
5 Third-party automation tools are identified as operating robots by the system
In response to these problems, it is recommended to fundamentally optimize the account environment
Kookeey proxy IP is a pure IP solution that currently supports the stable operation of platforms such as Instagram. It supports dynamic residential IP and static ISP resources in more than 180 countries around the world. It avoids the problem of real natural IP association and account blocking in the No. 1 IP environment. It can effectively circumvent Instagram's risk control mechanism when used with anti-fingerprint browsers.
If your Instagram account has been blocked, you can refer to the following recovery methods
- Check if it is an official email. You will usually receive a message stating the reason for blocking.
- Enter the unblocking page and use your mobile phone number or email address to verify your account identity
- Submitting a complaint form indicates that the account is a real user, not necessarily a robot. Sometimes you need to upload proof of identity.
- Do not block the account for the time being. Try to log in or change the device to extend the system to extend the account block time.
- After recovery, suspend operation for 1-2 days and gradually resume normal usage frequency
In summary, it is not terrible to be blocked by Instagram. What is terrible is not understanding the rules and repeatedly making mistakes. A stable login environment and good usage, combined with proxy IPs like Kookeey that are specially designed for social media overseas expansion, are a must.
To minimize the risk of account closure and ensure stable account operation
If you are doing content overseas advertising promotion and social media traffic diversion, it is very necessary to establish a "safe + compliant + stable" account maintenance system now.
