Do you use Instagram? Do you want to know how to build an Instagram Bot?
This tutorial will teach you how to automate Instagram activities with the help of an Instagram bot.
Let's get started!
Prerequisites for making one (Bot)
Linux server
That's it. Now let's dive straight into the code.
First file (instagram.class.php)

2nd file (instagram_config.php)
You need to edit the details with yours.
<?php
set_time_limit(0);
$searchtag = array('hashtag1', 'hashtag2', 'hashtag3');
$hello = array('Before-Tag-Msg', 'Before-Tag-Msg-2');
$praise = array('After-Tag-Msg', ' After-Tag-Msg', ' After-Tag-Msg');
?>
Before-Tag-Msg @Username After-Tag-Msg
3rd file and the final one:
You need to replace your instagram username and password here
<?php
set_time_limit(0);
include 'instagram.class.php';

$username = 'USERNAME';

exit();
}

echo "Empty response received from the server while trying to login";
print_r($response);
exit();
}

$username = $data['user']['username'];
$haslike = $data['has_liked'];
if ($i<40) {

exit();

Upload all the files in your linux server after editing and add a cron to the file "instagram_follow.php" for every 3Hours (Preferred).
For the first time when you will run this bot your instagram account may ask to confirm the location.
I personally use this script for my account @MarwadiWriter
You can download all the files from here
PS: I don't take any responsibilities of your instagram accounts. Use at your own risk!
