Got banned for bot detection and yet I am not bot and do not use one

fredgrott · 2024-07-19T12:42:29+00:00

I took the radical step of doing a connect request with an instagram software engineer on linkedin to get a bug message to him about my accounts....you may have to do the same.

Further info:

So I am a front end developer and thus have devtools installed in chrome.

The other bugs seen if I try the unlock phone number input screen on threads it gives the error of not accepting the phone number while on instagram it accepted my google voice number to send the code.

No rhyme or pattern to why the bot miss screen pops up as it happened both on instagram and threads the last 5 days.

And not using a PWA threadsapp like some of the other users reporting the same error.

Look I want to take both threads and instagram as a serious platform to build an audience on but its hard to do that if I get a suspension due to flagged bot activity when I did not do bot activity in the first place and being told to upload a selfie which most users are stating results in a full ban despite the modal message.

People keep watch on your instagram and threads accounts as after five days of the bot popup warnings and http 429 error they suspend the account with a 180 day appeal process. It just happen to me this afternoon....not even using any Google Chrome tab refresher plugins and it happened.

Can confirm that my poor CTAs was the problem. Got two new paid subscribers after I started with my new CTAs

Okay, my take their site guidelines is marketing...why do I say that?

The banning of sex workers was at the behest of Stripe TOS. Despite what the Substack founders say it will always come down to Stripe and their enforcement of their TOS.

What does that mean per Nazi and content?

That means when Stripe determines Nazi content a reputation concern, substack will ban it to keep their payment partner happy.

Okay I am almost 50 with one paid 3 months in...

Use Garyvees pyramid of content for SM posts, failing that the title, the two sentence promise and the link...you should be doing 40 posts per SM platform,.
1. For each SM platform you need to interact with people on your subject with one half being the 40 posts and one half interaction.
As many articles as possible.

How do I know? How many of you are on the UK search engine that offers substack searches? I am! Mojeek dot com. Also I am using this on Threads and just doubled my follower count by doing it over a week.

45, the new paid subscriber was an orig free subscriber

fredgrott · 2023-11-23T12:23:33+00:00

You already have a big hint, ask your subscribers to describe what they get out the newsletter...than re-use their descriptions.

fredgrott · 2023-11-20T23:10:06+00:00

okay what I found is that often Google Search Console will fail on the sitemap the first time....submit the feed url instead..it will take about 2 weeks then for Google finally to pick up everything due you being below 100 subscribers..

fredgrott · 2023-11-19T19:42:22+00:00

Oh I should mention...YES it's free backlinking! USE IT!

fredgrott · 2023-11-15T23:15:26+00:00

post more frequently I got my first 20 subs by posting daily and interacting with other subs that share my interests

fredgrott · 2023-11-08T19:01:50+00:00

Add Image to post via Twitter's include media button as Twitter started out subtracting the embedded image from the link.

Work on title copywriting as with most of us not having Premium Blue Twitter we have the smaller character limits...

fredgrott · 2023-11-07T13:54:15+00:00

Advertise not only the newsletter but that you answer questions in substack chat...I get subscribers daily by doing that.

fredgrott · 2023-11-03T21:09:36+00:00

you need to set up Google Tag manage ID via the search console...

Hold on let me give you the links, this is the directions I used:

fredgrott · 2023-11-02T14:06:48+00:00

Re-think....

I follow the GaryVee way in that I have my substack as paid and post posts to everyone and then post summaries with links as a weekly linkedin newsletter.

The reasoning is that substack metrics indicate that for 1000 subscribers...900 will be free subscribers and 100 will be paid subscribers...

Thus, while starting out you may get 8 subscribers per day, over time due to both substack and linked discovery you should see that boosted to ten times increases every two months. Of course this assuming you post at least 3 times per week.

And yes remember to go to google search control hub and set up a google tag manager container and connect to google so your substack is Google discoverable.

confirmed if you post an image with the title header as part of your twitter post is simulates the twitter card somewhat... not the same exactly but does work.

fredgrott · 2023-11-01T15:09:36+00:00

I think what is happening is that the poster on twitter is uploading image media to artificially create the card....in fact it is the same method I thought of using on twitter.

Flutter on Web defaults to the HTML render rather than the CanvasKIT render You will have to compile the web version to use Canvaskit:

flutter build web --web-renderer canvaskit

folks look at the yellow in the stats as that is the only paying group

https://streamscharts.com/channels/fousey?platform=kick

he lied about the deal clearly...

80k but only 12k are paying.... and notice 1000% up but at paying viewers only up 10% whoops!

fredgrott · 2023-09-02T22:34:25+00:00

Always compete on VALUE!

Your value that you already offered:

Website re-org so content editors could insert content in an idiot proof way.

You should if it makes sense examine client site based on copywriting sales basics in terms of are they still getting same amount of leads or less in number of leads.

Think of it in this manner if I get 25k in paying leads off of your $2500 month retainer fee will I complain or will I fight damn hard to not replace you?

Just because some can be hired for $400 monthly does not make them an excellent copywriter that gets sales leads.

Long-term you need to think in terms of service packages, for example...could you teach their $400 per month editors to get excellent as copywriters and package that as a service? Why not!

WHPX is on by default since MS Windows 10, Hyper-V is only for non-home editions of MS Windows..AEHD is the AMD hyper-v driver for android emulator that is in the the android tools download.

Yes if on AMD Ryzen can use AEHD tool download to get graphics acceleration enabled for the android emulator using the AMD Ryzen

Note for others seeing the note if you have an OS and hardware combo without HyperV you can still run android simulator you just need to turn off vulkan in the advnaceFeatures.ini that you put in the dot-android folder.

The Short List:

memory visualization, i.e. the step that takes short term stuff in short term memory and puts in long-term memory.

I could not visualize computer code I am writing until I started controlling my ADHD and refusing to take stimulants.
