检查您的标签页面。

如果您查看定期使用的主题标签的页面，并查看一条消息隐藏了帖子，则有可能您使用这些主题标签被Shadowband。

查看以下标签“必须follow”的消息。由于用户报告了最近使用此标签的帖子，因为不符合Instagram的社区准则，因此Instagram可能会隐藏您的内容（即使您的标签是notin violation of any guidelines).

Check Instagram Insights.

看着Instagram Insights, if you notice a sudden and sustained drop in engagement, then it's possible you've been shadowbanned. One of the best metrics to look at is percent of accounts reached that weren't following you.

Take a look at the difference in "discovery" of the two posts below. This blogger duo went from reaching over 70K accounts, 32% of which weren't following them, to reaching a little over 40K, of which only 4% weren't already following them. This drop cued the bloggers in that their account had been shadowbanned.

Why am I shadowbanned?

There are a few potential reasons your account could have been shadowbanned. To ensure this doesn't happen again, let's explore some actions you might have taken that led you to being shadowbanned.

1. You use bots or another automated "Instagram growth" tool.

如果您自己没有努力工作，那么您就不会真正地增长关注。Instagram对此感到皱眉 - 例如，在上面的声明中，他们鼓励用户制定着专注于与合适受众联系的策略。使用机器人是一种垃圾邮件策略，可能会导致Shadowban。

2. You use broken hashtags.

Occasionally, a popular hashtag will become overrun with inappropriate content. When this happens, Instagram can remove the hashtag or limit its use. If you use a broken hashtag, it will prevent your other hashtags from ranking, and could also result in a blocked account.

3.您的帐户经常报告。

When users repeatedly report an account, Instagram will assume your account is posting inappropriate content or violating their terms of service. They might disable your account, or they could shadowban it.

4. You've been posting, commenting, engaging, or following people too quickly.

Instagram places time constraints on how often you can follow, unfollow, like, comment, or post within an hour or day. This makes sense — if you're following 80 people within an hour, it's likely a bot doing the work, not you.

这些动作可能会帮助您迅速发展，但是它们无法帮助您与合适的人建立联系，这就是为什么您首先要加入Instagram的原因。此外，这些行为可能导致Shadowban，这严重限制了您对新受众的接触。

如何取消展示

To get your account back to normal, you'll want to reverse the damage. Here's how:

If you use a bot or another automated service, stop and delete it immediately.

To make sure the accounts aren't still attached to you, go to your desktop Instagram and click "Edit Profile", and then "Apps and Websites". If you see any of your bot accounts in the Active tab, click "Remove" to remove them from your account completely.

Remember, it's better to have 100 followers who love your brand and purchase your products, than 1,000 followers who never buy from you or interact with your content.

Don't use hashtags that have been banned.

Take a look atMarkitor的2021年禁止主题标签列表，并确保从您的内容中删除所有破碎的主题标签。这是列表中的一些：

Moving forward, be selective and careful with the hashtags you choose, and when in doubt, take a look at the hashtag's page — Instagram will likely post a message like, "Recent posts from #summer2020 are currently hidden … ", which will indicate to you that the hashtag is no longer in use.

休息两天。

人们从usi报道全部48小时休息ng their Instagram accounts can reset the system and get you back on track, and it's worth the temporary social media cleanse anyway, isn't it?

遵循Instagram的规章制度。

阅读并关注Instagram的Terms of Use,社区Guidelines， 和Recommendation Guidelines. Some notable takeways from these documents are:

• 仅共享您创建或有权共享的内容

• Don't post content that's false or misleading

• 分享适合任何人看到的内容
