Looking to up your influencer marketing game? We have curated a massive list of the top 100 Micro Instagram Influencers (and counting!) to help you get started!

On average, Instagram users spend 53 minutes per day scrolling and liking awesome photos. That’s just five minutes less than Facebook users spend. When Facebook acquired Instagram back in 2012, many called it the wackiest acquisition till date as the purchase price was around $1 billion. A little over 6 years later, that purchase is looking like the smartest thing Facebook has ever done!

As Instagram became everyone’s favorite app, it also popularized the concept of influencer marketing. In 2017, the term “influencer marketing” increased by 325% in Google searches. The influencer marketing phenomenon continues to make noise in the industry, giving birth to new agencies acting as matchmakers between brands and influencers.

Instagram Influencers giphyMarketers all around the world have taken notice as roughly two-thirds of marketing departments are looking to increase their budget for influencer marketing over the next year. In 2017, a mind-boggling 12.9 million brands sponsored influencer content was posted on Instagram. That number is estimated to double in 2018, creating an estimated market size of nearly $1.7 billion.

Why is Influencer Marketing Taking Off?

You may be wondering why are marketers and brands lining up with billions of dollars to partner with normal people like you and me? Actually, therein lies the answer. You see consumers have increasingly lost interest in traditional advertising methods and subsequently in celebrity endorsements.
