I deal with a lot of companies saying to me I just bought loads of followers from a website 2 weeks later they are asking me to now make them a new page due to Facebook taking it down for breaking the rules don’t do it
Buying thousands of followers for your page might seem like a quick way to boost credibility, but it usually does more harm than good. Here’s why it ruins your page:
⸻
🚫 1. Kills Your Engagement Rate
Facebook’s algorithm prioritizes content based on engagement (likes, comments, shares). When you buy followers:
• Most of them are fake or inactive accounts.
• They don’t engage with your posts.
• Your engagement rate plummets (likes/comments vs. number of followers), making your page look inactive or unpopular.
⸻
⚠️ 2. Damages Your Credibility
People can often tell when followers are fake (e.g., unusual names, no profile pictures, no activity).
• It makes your brand look dishonest or desperate.
• Potential customers may lose trust in you.
⸻
📉 3. Hurts Organic Reach
Facebook uses engagement to decide how many people see your posts.
• Low engagement (because fake followers don’t interact) = less organic reach.
• Even real followers may stop seeing your content.
⸻
🚫 4. Violates Facebook Policies
Buying followers is against Facebook’s terms of service.
• Your page could be penalized, shadowbanned, or even deleted.
⸻
🤖 5. Fake Followers = No Conversions
You might have 10,000 followers, but if none of them are interested in your product or service:
• No leads.
• No sales.
• No return on investment.
⸻
✅ What You Should Do Instead:
• Run targeted ads to attract real people.
• Post valuable, consistent content that encourages interaction.
• Collaborate with local influencers or other pages.
• Engage with your audience (respond to comments, go live, run polls, etc.).
⸻
In short:
👉 Fake followers = fake growth.
👉 Real engagement = real results.
