Management was very professional and responsive to emails and all questions. My account activity and engagement was much higher than normal and I received more inquiries about my business. I love the service and plan on continuing!

Amazing service and attention. I’ve tried similar services before and this is the best by far. In just a few months they’ve helped me grow a lot! Real and reliable.

Very informative and thorough! They are very responsive to emails and answer any question you may have about increasing engagement. I truly appreciate that YOUR account not getting flagged or shut down is a very high priority.

We were a little bit hesitant at first because we don’t believe in quantity over quality. It is very important to us that these followers are qualified. After taking a look at the followers we’ve gained, we were very happy to see that the followers were local, relevant, fit our customer avatars and were REAL.

Our results with Socialstud.io have been outstanding! After just one month, we began gaining about 3x more followers than our previous Instagram growth provider. We definitely recommend this service!

THE TEAM

Meet the actual humans growing your account.

A Vilnius, Lithuania based team. Every account gets a project manager and a growth manager.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, 100%. We don’t sell followers, likes, or comments. Instead, we put your profile in front of real users who match your target audience. They follow you because they’re genuinely interested in your content. You can check their profiles yourself – they’re real people with real posts and real engagement.

Your manager researches relevant accounts and manually performs the activity included in your plan: follows, likes and story views. They also monitor results, refine targeting and report completed activity. We do not create content, send DMs or change your profile settings.

Three things separate us from other Instagram growth services. First, every interaction is performed by a real person, meaning no bots, no automation, no risk to your account. Second, you get a dedicated growth manager who learns your brand, niche, and goals, not generic targeting that ignores your context. Third, we’re 100% transparent: daily reporting through Google Sheets shows you every action taken on your account. That combination is why we’re trusted by 1000+ brands and creators.

Most clients see their first new followers within 24-48 hours. However, meaningful growth builds over 2-4 weeks as we refine targeting and your profile gains momentum. By month two, you should see a consistent, predictable growth pattern. Results vary by niche, content quality, and account size.

Yes, we need account access to perform engagement actions on your behalf. Your credentials are stored securely in restricted systems with limited access. We only use your account for the agreed-upon growth activities and never change your profile, content, or settings without your approval.

Absolutely. There are no long-term contracts or commitments. Cancel your subscription anytime through your dashboard or by contacting your account manager.
