Creator sizes
Bigger is not always better. The right size depends on whether you mainly want awareness or action. Smaller creators bring a tighter audience and stronger engagement; larger ones bring reach and recognition.
Emerging creators · 1K-10K
Highest trust and engagement. Best for hyper-local or niche campaigns where authenticity matters most.
High-efficiency creators · 10K-50K
Best balance of reach, engagement and cost. Ideal for product launches, DTC brands and performance campaigns.
Scale creators · 50K-500K
Broad visibility and recognition. Good for awareness and brand positioning at scale.
Celebrity-level creators · 500K+
Mass awareness and cultural reach. Premium pricing; use where broad visibility matters most.

Find your creatorsWhat metrics did I use to find the best football influencers?
I asked my influencer marketing platform to find influencers with these metrics:
👉 Followers: On the up
These football influencers all have growing audiences, showing how popular and trending they are.
👉 Engagement rate: Above industry standard
Nobody wants to work with a dull influencer or one with fake followers. Who’s got time to use a fake follower checker?
I used my influencer platform to analyse the audience and ensure they engaged with the content. The higher the engagement, the better.
👉 Audience interest: Above 30%
That’s right. My platform further analysed the audience of each football influencer or creator.
Why?
To ensure the audience is interested in: football.
👉 Activity level: Active
I also used my influencer marketing platform to find active football influencers. There are no duds here.
