Flinque returns a list of verified creators matching your criteria. Click any profile to see detailed analytics, audience insights, and contact information.
How does Flinque detect fake followers?

Every creator in our database gets an authenticity score you can filter by.

Influencer Marketing Basics
What is influencer marketing?
Influencer marketing is the practice of partnering with content creators on social media to promote your brand, product, or service. Instead of paying for traditional ads, brands pay creators to share authentic content with audiences who trust their voice and recommendations.
How much does influencer marketing cost in 2026?
Rates vary by platform and creator tier. Nano creators (under 10K) charge $50 to $300 per post. Micro creators (10K to 100K) charge $300 to $3,000. Mid-tier (100K to 500K) charge $3,000 to $15,000. Macro creators (500K to 1M) charge $15,000 to $50,000. Usage rights, exclusivity, and whitelisting add 20% to 100% on top.
What engagement rate is considered good?
Instagram: 1% to 3% for macro creators, 3% to 6% for micro. TikTok: 5% to 15%. YouTube: 2% to 8%. X: 0.5% to 2%. These benchmarks shift by category, so compare creators against peers in the same niche and follower tier before you sign anyone.
What is the difference between macro, micro, and nano influencers?
Nano influencers have under 10,000 followers with the highest engagement rates. Micro influencers have 10,000 to 100,000 followers with strong niche authority. Mid-tier have 100,000 to 500,000 followers. Macro influencers have 500,000 to 1 million followers. Mega and celebrity influencers have over 1 million followers with maximum reach but lower engagement.
Should small brands work with mega influencers?
Usually no. Micro-influencers with 10K to 100K followers deliver higher engagement and better cost efficiency for most direct response campaigns. Save mega-influencer budgets for brand launches or category awareness plays where scale matters more than conversion rate.
How do I measure influencer marketing ROI?
Track cost per engagement, cost per acquisition, and cost per thousand impressions. Attribute conversions with UTM parameters and unique promo codes per creator. Measure over 30 days minimum, not 24 hours. Compare at least 3 creators before scaling spend on any single partnership.
How do I vet an influencer before working with them?
Run the handle through a fake follower check, audit the last 20 posts for engagement consistency, verify audience demographics, and confirm the engagement rate sits within platform benchmarks. Most issues surface within the first 10 minutes of proper vetting.
Is influencer marketing worth it for B2B?
Yes, especially on LinkedIn, YouTube, and X where decision makers actively consume creator content. B2B influencer marketing works best with thought leaders and niche experts rather than lifestyle creators. Expect longer sales cycles but higher deal values.
What is the biggest influencer marketing mistake?
Chasing follower counts instead of engagement quality. A creator with 500K followers and 0.3% engagement drives less action than a creator with 50K followers and 4% engagement. Audience authenticity beats audience size every time.
How do I find the right influencer for my brand?
Match audience demographics to your target customer, not just the creator’s niche. Check their last 20 posts to understand their voice, verify engagement is real with a fake follower check, and confirm their past brand collaborations align with how you want to be represented.
What is UGC in influencer marketing?
UGC stands for user-generated content. In influencer marketing, UGC-style creators produce authentic, organic-looking content for brands to use in ads or owned channels. They often have smaller audiences but create content that performs better in paid media because it does not look like a traditional ad.
What is influencer whitelisting?
Whitelisting is when a creator grants a brand permission to run paid ads from the creator’s social handle. It lets the brand boost the creator’s organic content with ad spend, reach new audiences, and tap into the creator’s credibility for paid media. Rights typically cost 20% to 100% more on top of the base post fee.
How long should an influencer campaign run?
Measure campaign performance across 30 days minimum. Most brands see initial engagement data within 48 hours, but conversion and ROI data typically stabilize between 14 and 30 days. Long-term retainer partnerships with 3 to 5 core creators deliver better results than one-off deals.
Do I need a contract with every influencer?
Yes, always. Contracts should cover deliverables, timeline, payment terms, usage rights, exclusivity, FTC disclosure requirements, and cancellation terms. A clear contract protects both sides and prevents the most common disputes in influencer partnerships.
