basis. When a creator recommends a product or service, it comes across as a
credible recommendation, and this is a great advantage for brands.

40. Can we measure the influence?
Engagement Rate or ER is a commonly used benchmark of success on Instagram as it can determine how
well an influencer connects with their audience. Highly engaging content with many likes and comments
often stands a better chance of organically appearing on an Instagram feed.

41. Can we measure the influence?
Engagement Rate or ER is a commonly used benchmark of success on Instagram as it can determine how
well an influencer connects with their audience. Highly engaging content with many likes and comments
often stands a better chance of organically appearing on an Instagram feed.
Nano-influencers tend to
have stronger connections
with their audience. Thus,
their ER is higher than the
ER of other influencer
groups: 4.79% in 2019, 5% in
2020, and 4.8% in 2021.
The highest average ER for
any influencer tier was
achieved in 2018 (2.92%).
Since then, the average ER
has decreased significantly.
ER dropped for all Tiers in
2021. Perhaps this is due to
the fact that users began
to spend part of their time
in Reels and more time in
Stories, so the activity
on posts has decreased.

42. The Average Percent of Instagram Accounts
Impacted by Fraud Decreased by 6.16%
Percentage of influencers impacted by fraud by follower number:
Сompared to 2020, the average percent of Instagram accounts impacted by fraud decreased by 6.16%. This is the second year in a row that this number has
decreased. This is a positive trend that shows that Instagram has begun to fight fraud more effectively and influencers themselves have realized that
fraudulent methods of promotion does not work in the long term.
This is especially noticeable for microinfluencers and nano-influencers, where the figure decreased by 4.41% and 6.76% respectively. But the number of
influencers impacted by fraud is still very high (49.23%). Fake influencers and engagement could cost advertisers millions of dollars each year.
Among the most popular gray
hat tricks are:
- buying followers
- buying likes and comments
- buying stories views
- comments pods

43. TikTok Nano- and MicroInfluencers Have the Highest
Engagement Rate
The ER for all tiers of the TikTok influencer has decreased compared to 2020.
If we look at the ER of TikTok influencers, we’ll see that
Microinfluencers and Mega-influencers have the highest
ER: 13.33% and 13.70% respectively. The ER of Mir-tier-,
and Macroinfluencers slightly differs and accounts for
around 13%.
High ER can be explained by the fact that user behavior on
TikTok differs from how people interact with other
platforms. TikTok was built for users to easily create and
interact with content. This encourages them to post videos,
like and follow frequently, and increases engagement.
