Followers & Following is a metric that helps to identify any suspicious trends in the growth of audience or unusual patterns of following performed by an influencer.
Spikes on a Followers Graph might be an indication of an artificial boost of followers count. In some cases a sudden followers growth is detected when a user participates in a give-away or becomes part of a TV show.

Spikes on a Following Graph in most cases are an indication of mass following.
Seesaw often indicates follow/unfollow patterns when there are thousands of followings performed.

There are multiple ways to boost a number of followers:
Purchase from 36 to 75$: Mr.Insta, Poprey, InstaBoostGram
Follow for follow: influencer performs mass-following behavior to increase audience number
