I've been posting coordinates for a few weeks now. I have a total of 8 posts, but only 13 followers. I tag my posts as #eglcommunity, #lolitafashion, and #jfashion, among other things, so I don't know what, if anything, I'm doing wrong. Is this normal growth for an account? I was hoping I'd get to interact with others more.

>> No.9828123

>>9828105
8 posts isn't a lot, I probably wouldn't bother following someone unless they had like, at least a full page of photos. You want to be sure to post pretty often, like a few times a week if not every day. Those tags sounds about right, tag the brands you're wearing also! And be sure to interact with other people (in a genuine way, obviously, not just to get followers but I've made a lot of friends that way). But yes, for 8 posts 13 followers sounds completely normal.

>> No.9828130

Thanks for the reassurance! If I only have time to dress up on weekends (my job is longer than 9-5), what should I post other than coord photos?

Nayrt but I greatly prefer people who post one good coord pic once a week over people who post selfies and unrelated stuff every day. If I see a post in a tag I follow that looks good but then see that their profile is a majority non-lolita I generally don’t follow. So it’s really up to you.

I usually only follow people I know from real life, people from a group I'm in, artists I enjoy, or shops. For the most part, I only follow strangers who wear clothing that I could see myself rocking. It has nothing to do with people being a bad or good dresser. You could be an excellent dresser, but I wouldn't follow if it's in a style I couldn't draw personal inspiration from.

I do love browsing the tags though and giving hearts to outfits and images I like otherwise. I'll always like to awesome room pictures, outfits, and cats. Chances are if I've liked one of your things, I'll pop back in at some point in the future.

They arent necessary, but I really like them.
I recently started a fresh with a new cosplay specific account and now have a strict posting style. Each row of 3 is of the same cosplay. I start by posting a photoshoot set (1-3photos), followed by the WIP shots put into a collage, then finally a selfie of me in that cosplay. I have 6 years of backlog to post which I use as filler rows between new projects.
So people can keep up to date with what I'm working on as it happens, I post the new WIP on my story. Which then eventually gets posted as part of a collage once I have everything to post the project row on my account.
When there's a convention coming up I use the "selfie" column to post my line up. Then share a mirror shot & selfie of the cosplay I'm wearing on the day of the con once I'm ready.

Just to note if you wish to do something similar though. I really wish I'd done it in the reverse order. Selfie, WIP, Shoot. But I'm determined to keep this up so don't want to change it around now.

For an alternate opinion, I can't stand accounts like >>9831445 (you do you if you like it, just not my taste!) or any strong themeing because if how artificial/sterile it feels and how samey it can start looking on my feed.

To keep my account looking cohesive despite a lot of different diverse cosplays, I use similar angles, framing, and saturation/lighting levels to the best of my ability, so it looks like an intentionally curated feed even if all jumbled.

I also really only care about seeing high quality or professional shoots of other cosplayers, so that's all I post on my account. Selfies are reserved for stories, and wips may be put on their own pinned highlight wheels but never posted.

I wasn’t the one who posted my link here. I did post it to my FB and I’m 90% sure of the person who brought it to /cgl/.

I can’t fault anon for this one, but the “rando” IMs were from two lolitas who are well-known online. Obviously I protected their identities, but I do wonder how people would feel about MD if they knew who those two people were and what they felt.

I wasn’t discredited anywhere expect maybe on here and MDs sob story post. My break was due to finding out I have colitis. My friends would be the only ones to know that though, but trust me. It’s hard to dress cute when you’re going through intestinal pain every day. I’m not one of those people who is good at pushing through that. Luckily my friends convinced me to stay in the fashion.

It wasn't even a sob story. Sorry getting noticed by your senpai didn't work out the way you wanted it to, but give up no one is going to side with you or turn against MD unless you give real solid proof.

Why do so many cosplayers buy followers?

I get that they want to seem popular, but when you have 30k+ followers and only get 200 likes per photo, it’s pretty obvious that you bought them.

And I feel like I’ve been seeing this sort of thing more and more frequently. It’s usually more like people buying 1-2k rather than 30k, but still it just seems like something that I’m seeing everywhere.

Hi
I run an account where I take pics from my Keras/GLB. I try to keep it old school but I also have a lot of 2010s issues so that makes it in there too. Plz ignore my YouTube vid posts for now. They're terrible and I'm trying to get better

Ngl I look down on cosplayers who obviously use bots or buy followers/likes. It doesn't matter how amazing their costumes are or how many awards they won, as long as they do either of those things, I automatically dislike them.

That being said, I do have friends who have a disproportionately small following in comparison to their likes (like 80-100 likes on each photo but only 300-600 followers) but their likes and comments all come from real accounts.

yeah it's always the damn virgin hair shops that follow me for some reason; the constant following and unfollowing because of these accounts annoys me sometimes just because I'll think I'm approaching a follower milestone and then all those spam accounts will unfollow or delete and I'll see it drop again and feel bad, but otherwise I dont really care. Really all it means is I'm a couple more likes likely to appear on the feeds of people I actually care about so it's not too big of a deal, personally.

At 200 followers I was getting at least 100-150 likes per photo (even selfies and less popular series), so I think it just depends on the kind of followers you have and hashtag usage. A lot of my followers at the beginning were cosplay friends who more readily interacted with my content. At 400 I got 150-350, which might’ve been from getting on the discover page or something.

It just looks like your account doesn’t exist anymore if they search for it. The only way they’d know is if they see your account still exists on the desktop version or through a side account. (I wish blocking also got rid of connected accounts but it doesn’t, unfortunately)

It’s the Instagram algorithm, the more followers you have, the less they show your post to. If it doesn’t immediately get a bunch of comments and likes within 10 minutes of posting, they won’t serve it up to most of your followers.

NAYRT, but you see that's strange...because I have a few thousand followers and I have some posts that will break a thousand likes and I have some that won't even break 100. I post around the same time per day, and those with 1000+ likes seem to only get likes that trickle in over the course of about 4 days or so. And often, those with at least 500 will be likes from accounts that don't even follow me (stores that want me to follow them, and the like). It really has me wondering how many of my actual followers ever see my content (and I'm sure this is information I could probably have if I switched to a business account but....fuck that).

Some of your posts are probably getting enough engagement to land them on the explore page, resulting in lots of likes from people who don't follow you. The algorithm is mostly a mystery and I've heard a lot of complaints from people lately that their likes are very inconsistent even if their content is.

You can ask the same question about any instafamous cosplayer though; she's cute, does decent cosplays, and has luck. Anyone who makes it big is lucky, there's no specific way for you to work the algorithm

How so? I don't see her doing any lewds or revealing cosplays.

>buying followers
But her statistics are consistent with the amount of followers she has. If she bought followers her like to follower ratio would be lower, but her engagement rate is almost 10%.

>self promos everywhere
She hasn't done any s4s as far as I've seen, hasn't tagged any people in her photos besides photographers, and doesn't spam follow people. How is she self promoing?

I actually want to know how to grow an account; please don't post vendetta under the guise of advice. She doesn't seem to use any of the techniques people give in these types of threads or in that cosplay marketing group, so how? She doesn't even use those annoying question captions to make people engage more with her photos. Like I get that she's pretty but there's tons of good looking cosplayers that don't get popular.

Okay, after looking at her posts, she's tagged 9/296 posts with that. But the posts with those tags are from when she already had 150k+ followers, so I doubt it's the source of her followers.

She doesn't do loli cosplays either though? And lolicon cosplayers are still lewd or revealing, look at @rocksylight for example.

One thing she does is sometimes cosplay the flavor of the month, and although she doesn’t do that often that is one thing that will give you reach. Cosplaying popular characters of the season. She also has a lot of interesting and or unique looks that I notice other popular cosplayers mimic. and yes, she’s hella tiny and people love that cute small look

No, someone wore a full set and people in RC:U started bitching about it. Claire launched on this SJW tirade (she's the cringe-chan with the BLM tattoo). The mods ended up locking the post for unrelated reasons, and Claire whined to the mod in PMs, and then whined in RC about "unprofessional mods" when the mod told her to fuck off. Claire and mod are both annoying, but at least the mod isn't using some SJW agenda to insert herself into every drama ever.
