Finding TikTok influencers with in-depth analytics

Apart from the added convenience, Affable also provides in-depth influencer analytics to help enhance your decision-making. These include: Engagement rates, Follower Timeline and Audience Demographics.

‍

Engagement rates

An influencer’s engagement rate is an essential factor to consider as it measures the level of interaction followers have with the influencer’s content. In general, we would recommend brands to collaborate with micro-influencers as they often have a high engagement rate compared to other tiers of influencers. Despite lower follower counts, working with micro-influencers can help brands save costs and reach their target audience effectively.

However, with the rising popularity of buying fake followers and automatic comments, ‘follower count’ and ‘engagement rate’ may no longer be enough to demonstrate an influencer’s authenticity as they can be artificially inflated. By tracking the percentage of suspicious followers using Affable, brands can better determine an influencer's true reach and decide if that influencer is worth collaborating with.

‍

Follower Timeline

Another factor worth looking into is the Follower timeline. Timelines with sharp spikes suggests that influencers earned a mass-following in a short span. This happens for several reasons such as giveaways, partnership with big brands, influencer scandals or even buying fake followers. Regardless of the reasons behind, marketers should always be cautious when seeing these concurrent spikes above.

‍

Audience Demographics

Using Affable, brands can find out the influencer's audience based on their demographics such as age range, location and gender distribution. Having such data helps brands check if their audiences match the demographics of your target market. It keeps marketers from wasting time and money on marketing to those who aren’t likely to be your customers.

‍

Bonus: Content Discovery

Understanding current influencer trends is crucial as it provides marketers with insights about what kind of content influencers are producing and how to strategize your campaign’s message to better engage with the audience.

With Affable’s Content Discovery Platform, you will be given access to our massive influencer database and find content for your specific interest. For example, type in ‘Travel’ in the Caption search and you can see with great ease what are the content trends for ‘travel’ in your selected specific period and location.
