Instagram Why my Instagram has no followers and no likes... Only just 1 random user and 1 or 2 likes instead.

Why does my Instagram does not get NO susbcribers and no likes ? Ill tell you very quickly what i did.... First i had a Instagram account months ago where i slowly began building up subscribers only 24 susbribers..... But i was posting city photos of buildings.... Nice shots... I even had random LIKES by people who where not a subscriber. Then later i deleted my account and a week later i endup creating a brand new account to restart the whole thing...... I began posting NEW and past photos once every week or so... But from now since i have this brand new account for 1 month I have no Subcribers and only 2 or 3 likes from random people who are not a subscriber...... Only 1 user has subscribe to my channel.. This is insane.... Its pretty sad to see how good my photos are and no matter how much i promote my instagram on YOUTUBE for people to susbcribe me there.. No one seems to do anything....

So im just curious... Is Instagram blocking me from accessing things or avoid people to subscribe to me?

I do not have my Instagram in private. Its in public there is a button there to Follow me there... and even people can comment by photos there.... But what is happening? Just because ive restarted a new account doesnt mean that now no one wants to follow me... Plus i do add many many tags on every photos.. tags related to cities. But not much progress..

I might sometimes get a random spammer saying click here to City escapes tag or so but nothing else... So what just happened? I mean is my channel blockled in diferent areas avoid getting people to see my photos?

When i add tags for my photos.. I also notice every tag i click onto.... shows the profile like for example #cityescapes When i click that it shows a blue button above it saying (follow) Otherwise all i see is a less then 5 photos seen in there.. But it wasnt like that... every tag i click on i was able to see heaps of photos of random people posting it on #city #cityescapes tags.. Now it seems that u must follow to see the rest of peoples photos... Even though i dont want to follow to every tag i add in my photos..

Can you guess what happen or what to do ? thanks

before when i has a previews account i was getting 12 likes and just 24 followrs.... very small amount.. But since i deleted that account i restarted a enw account do the whole thing but with new photos.. but this time no one now follows and no likes.... only 1 follower and less then 1 or 2 likes... Now im starting to wonder if Instagram is secretly blocking me from having followers and likes. What do you think? Anyone can follow me.. Its not just has to be the same users who where follow me. I add about 8 or 10 diferent TAGS in regards cities for my photos. But still not helpful enough...

Instagram is a toughie. Are the tags you're using blocked? Tags that are blocked by Insta can result in "shadowbans", and the image just won't be shown in anyone's feed unless they're looking for that tag. You'll also have to make use of all parts of IG - Reels, stories, and grid posts. Don't feel disheartened about slow growth on Instagram, the platform has been hard to work with for a long time now. You can use external tools to do hashtag research (I do this once a month, and save out specific tag lists in my scheduler), and try to have interesting captions to go along with really high quality posts, too. :) I hope it works out for you eventually, please don't give it with it!

I dont no... its rather strange.. i add many tags like people use..... but not getting anyone to follow me anymore or anything... what a strange feeling :(
Here are SOME tags i add to the photo:

#luxury #luxurylifestyle #building #city #lasvegascity #resorts #lights #lasvegasblvd #lasvegasnevada #cosmolasvegas

Go aahead and tell me if all of these tags are blocked or not. Because for me when i click any of these all i see if just part of the photos but when you scroll down it wont show anymore because it has a blue word saying (FOLLOW)
Does this mean i have to FOLLOW every single tag i add to my photos? Even though i dont want to follow all tags.. as i only FOLLOW just a few trusted FRIENDS and not just random tags...

Let me know....

But years ago it was easy for me to get more views and likes and followers.. Now it seems as though instagram is..... not letting me to be seen ? I wouldnt no.. my instagram seems its open to public even when i go offline even if i make a fake account i can see my real account,, So i guess my account isnt blocked or anything then why am i not getting followers and likes???? i used to until i had to change a new account one after another. But now im settled down but this time a extreme lack of no one follows me :(

Thank you
