How do I get active followers on instagram?

[Dontmesswitme]

Ok so I have 9,000 followers on instagram, but I ONLY receive like 200 likes without using hashtags. I followed lots of accounts to get me to 9,000 but they aren't active and never like my pictures. I've seen other accounts with 9K followers who receive 500-1500 likes. So the question is: if I follow users how do I make sure they're going to be active? Thanks
