Reducing the Risk of WhatsApp Account Blocking with CrunchzApp

WhatsApp has been continually improving its anti-spam system, closely tracking account behavior to prevent spam and bulk messaging. If you’re using CrunchzApp for bulk messaging, follow these tips to minimize the risk of getting blocked.

1. Always Warm Up Your Number

Warming up your number is crucial to reducing the likelihood of it being blocked. The longer your number has been active on WhatsApp, the more reliable it becomes.

  • How to Warm Up: Begin by using your number for regular communication before initiating bulk messaging. This signals to WhatsApp that your number is trustworthy.

2. Take Breaks Between Broadcasts

Constantly sending messages without breaks can raise red flags and lead to account blocking. Here’s how to space out your message activity:

  • Limit Your Sending Rate: Don’t send more than 2 messages per minute, limit your messaging activity to a maximum of 6 hours per day, and avoid continuous sending for more than 3 consecutive days.
  • Breaks are Key: Taking breaks between broadcasts makes your message activity look more natural to WhatsApp’s algorithm.

3. Engage with Your Audience

Interactive and personalized messaging is key to maintaining a healthy account.

  • Target the Right Audience: Only send messages to people who are expecting to hear from you to lower the risk of complaints.
  • Include Opt-Out Options: Always add “Reply STOP to unsubscribe” to give users an easy way to opt-out.
  • Encourage Contacts to Save Your Number: Include a business contact card with an “Add to Contacts” button in your messages to boost engagement and trust.
  • Ask Open-Ended Questions: Initiating a conversation with a question invites responses, which increases engagement.
  • Aim for a Response Rate of 30%: Try to get responses from at least 30% of your audience to avoid being flagged for low engagement.

4. Group Your Audience by Geography

WhatsApp expects most users to communicate with contacts from their own geographic location. To avoid being flagged as suspicious:

  • Segment by Area Code or Location: Organize your contacts by their geographic region to make your messaging activity seem more natural.

Why Was Your WhatsApp Number Blocked?

Here are common reasons why your WhatsApp number may get blocked:

  • Messaging Non-Contacts: Sending messages to users who haven’t saved your number can trigger blocking.
  • Bulk Sending Identical Messages: Sending the same message to multiple recipients increases the likelihood of being flagged as spam.
  • Client Complaints: If users mark your messages as spam, it raises your chances of getting blocked.
  • Creating Multiple Groups: Adding users who aren’t in your contact list to groups can lead to account suspension.
  • Bulk Sending to Foreign Numbers: Sending large volumes of messages to users in different countries not associated with your account’s region may raise suspicion.
  • Violating WhatsApp’s Policies: WhatsApp has strict rules prohibiting content related to alcohol, weapons, medical consultations, and financial schemes. Violating these can result in instant blocking.

Most WhatsApp accounts get blocked for attempting to send large volumes of messages in a short time or failing to engage users properly. By following these guidelines, you can reduce the chances of being blocked and ensure seamless bulk messaging with CrunchzApp.
