The computer becomes responsible for liking and commenting on Instagram posts containing certain hashtags that you define beforehand, or posts from the followers of a specific account (again defined by you). Instagram bots are computers which take over your Instagram account to help it “grow”. But I won’t, because this is really becoming a noticeable problem for businesses on Instagram. I have to admit the irony made me chuckle! And I could actually stop writing this article right now because the point has been made. So, after posting the 60 second version of this week’s video on our Instagram account (in which I state the likelihood that a huge percentage of Instagram comments are fake), this happens: A lot of the comments we receive are fake, in the sense that they have no connection to the post they’re made on – more than likely because they’re posted automatically by Instagram bots. Whilst pondering the possible reasons for wanting to turn off comments, we had a thought which rang true (for us in any case). The theme this week was all about Instagram’s latest comments updates, and the fact that you can now like other users’ comments and even turn comments off on your own posts if you wish to. Here’s this week’s if you didn’t catch it: As you know, every week we post a recap video of the latest news and stories from Instagram.
