How much do Instagram influencers make?
The top five Instagram influencers as of April 2021 have over 200 million followers each and include Cristiano Ronaldo, Ariana Grande, Dwayne Johnson, Kylie Jenner and Selena Gomez, according to Search Engine Journal. While the money these Instagram superstars can make is astronomical, the income people who aren’t celebrities can make is not necessarily chump change.
Influencers with a million followers can earn somewhere around $670 per post, the search marketing website says.
A content creator on Instagram with 100,000 followers can earn about $200 per post, while someone with 10,000 followers can make about $88 per post.
So, the formula is: more followers + more posts = more money.
How many Instagram followers do you need to make money?
With just 1,000 or so followers, you can make money on Instagram. Neil Patel, a widely known digital marketing specialist, says the key is engagement — followers who like, share and comment on your posts.
"Even if you have 1,000 followers who are engaged, the potential to make money is there," he writes on his blog.
With an enthusiastic fan base, no matter how small, "brands are willing to invest in you because of the profitable actions you’ll drive through your account," Patel adds.
5 ways to make money on Instagram
1. Get sponsored
Creating sponsored posts or stories is the primary way Instagram users can cash in on their account.
For example, if your feed is focused on images of your dog on hikes, an outdoor gear company may want to pay you to post a photo that includes its product in the picture.
How to get sponsored on Instagram
So how do you find a sponsor? In some cases, potential partners will reach out to you. But if you don’t want to wait to be approached, check out companies that can help you find and work with brands.
Seek out a service
Which business you use depends on your needs. There are agencies you work with directly, like The Mobile Media Lab, and marketplaces that connect you with partners, like Influicity. Other services can help you manage all your partner relationships, like Aspire.
Be authentic
When searching for partners or deciding between different offers, aim for stuff you and those you influence would actually use. Followers of your pet are more likely to trust your opinion about a trail backpack for dogs than gourmet cat food.
Don’t bother with products you don’t like. If your dog would tear apart an “indestructible” toy in an instant or bites off every sweater you’ve put on her, there’s no reason to recommend these things to others.
Find brands that fit as specific a niche as possible. Fans of your outdoorsy dog may look for many opinions on dog stuff in general but will really trust you to know which protective booties work best for the winter.
Keep in mind that sponsored posts and stories on Instagram are held to the same standard of truth in advertising as any other form of marketing. Make sure to include a disclosure in each paid post and story. You’ll do this by setting up branded content in your account settings then tagging your business partner.
2. Promote your business
There are other ways to use Instagram to make money. You can set up a business account to grow your business. For example, if you have an Etsy shop where you sell your crafts or a food blog that generates advertising revenue, a professional-looking Instagram account could provide a promotional boost.
(This is also a common way to make money on TikTok.)
You can link to your Etsy or website in your profile or highlight one specific product in your bio section to direct more people to it. If your account is approved for Instagram Shopping features, you can tag products to promote your stuff directly.
Set yourself up for success
Take well-lit photos of products you’re trying to sell or projects you’re promoting and make them findable. Create your own hashtag and check out which ones competitors are using. Encourage your clients to post pictures with your stuff and tag you in them.
You can also use Instagram’s insights feature to learn about your audience. You can see how many eyes are on your post, as well as statistics about people's age range and gender.
The app’s resources also help you find and connect with new customers. Pay some money to promote posts that you want more people to see. You can also add a button to your profile that links to an email address or phone number so interested parties can contact you easily
3.
Sell your castoffsMaybe you don’t have a business to promote, but you often sell your old clothes and accessories on websites like Poshmark. Instagram can boost your pool of buyers.
Present and photograph your clothes and other things in an appealing way and include as much detail as possible in the caption. Brand, size, condition and age of each item are all good things to note. If you’re looking to sell one item in particular, link to it in your Instagram bio. If not, just link to your Poshmark or other seller profile. Many Instagram sellers use #shopmycloset to hawk their wares.
4. Earn badges through Live videos
You can earn money directly from your audience when you share real-time videos with Instagram’s Live feature. As you showcase your talents, products and so on, viewers can buy badges, which are essentially tips, to show support. Badges cost $0.99, $1.99 or $4.99. You’ll see heart symbols next to comments from people who’ve purchased them.
Promote your upcoming Live video sessions through posts or stories to get the word out beforehand. Then, try using the Q&A feature or give shoutouts to commenters while you’re broadcasting to boost engagement — and hopefully, badges.
5. Monetize your videos with ads
Another way to get paid: Allow brands to run ads during your videos. To set it up, head to your creator account settings and enable the monetization option for in-stream video ads. Then, post videos as usual.
The amount you earn depends on how many views your video gets in the feed. You’ll receive 55% of the revenue generated per view, according to the Instagram for Business website. Payments are issued monthly.
However, you won’t get paid if your videos don’t meet the requirements. For example, videos need to be at least 2 minutes long to earn money. Instagram recommends aiming for 2 to 4 minutes in length.

How Much Money Does an Instagram Influencer Make?
Protein powder.
A vitamin-subscription box.
The newest restaurant you must try.
If you’re on Instagram, odds are you’ve seen at least one of these things. Endorsed by someone you follow. In the past month.
It’s easy to poke fun at your latest acquaintance that’s taken up this endeavour, but that doesn’t stop the tiny voice in your head asking, “Are they getting paid for this?” quickly followed by, “I can hold a bottle of self-tanner and smile too – can I get paid as well?”
These influencers – as society has labeled them – have created a digital empire by snapping a few semi-filtered shots with one hand, while promoting the latest trend with the other.
Their credibility comes through an influx of social engagement, which occurs while building an influence that is rewarded with products, money, and sometimes even fame.
We’re putting the numbers to the test to see how financially independent one can really be from a couple thousand likes. And just how realistic that task is to conquer.
It Pays to be Popular 💁
While climbing the influencer ladder, it’s common to get paid more per post if you have a higher follower count. This logic stems from the idea that the more eyes that see the content, the more brands are willing to pay.
But what determines that ✨magic ✨number one must hit before these posts actually become profitable?
< 10,000 Followers
“Micro” influencers have anywhere from 6,000 to 10,000 followers. Unlike your popular friend that has acquired this many followers by posting cool stuff, the people behind these handles are vying to grow their page around a specific niche.
According to a recent survey, these accounts can make up to, on average, $88.00 per post. However, most micro-influencers hold off on charging upfront so they can first garner a larger, long-term presence.
Understood as a dedicated hobby, this follower level can get your Instagram handle in the door for future collaborations or sponsored posts, filled with some free perks along the way.
< 100,000 Followers
At this stage in the game, brands are sending out direct messages to accounts with this amount of followers like clockwork, asking for product endorsement in exchange for freebies: Think designer-labeled clothing, monthly packages catered to health and wellness, or a free meal from the restaurant that wants exposure.
Some occasional money may come in, but most influencers are hesitant to start charging at this stage since it may delegitmize their growing success.
For example, one self-proclaimed "foodstagrammer" currently holds 72,000 followers. While hundreds of likes swarm in for each post, the account is waiting to monetize their work until at least hitting the 100,000 mark – which is the “socially acceptable” marker.
It’s somewhat of an unspoken rule that influencers can expect to be paid $10.00 for every 1,000 followers they have, once they hit the 100,000 threshold. Charging for posts before hitting this may result in getting paid less, or settling before the account has fully bloomed.
Influencers with 50,000 to 80,000 followers get around $200.00 per post, but the price point changes based on the advertiser. Some accounts make deals with brands to post promotional codes on their feed, and everytime a new person uses their code, they make a percentage of the sale. Other accounts opt into giveaway deals that purely boost their follower count.
Whether these middle-tier accounts are maintaining their presence on the side working vigorously to turn their accounts into a full-time career, their followings are impressive.
< 1,000,000 Followers
The leap from 100,000 followers to one MILLION followers is quite an undertaking to say the least, coming with no standard manual or rules to follow on what to post and how much to charge.
Accounts of this nature (think 250,000 to 500,000 followers) have hit the jackpot of Instagram influencing, with possible earnings averaging at $670.00 per post.
But it doesn’t even need to be a picture on their feed that brings in the cash.
Accounts this large have various features that lower-tier handles can’t access yet, such as a verified account (blue check mark) and the Instagram story “swipe up” capability, brands and companies can leverage these features for more effective influencer ad campaigns.
Once an account reaches more than one million followers, the sky’s the limit on what they charge.
Time is Money ⏰💰
But it’s more than just taking aesthetically-pleasing photos and tagging brands.
Not only do Instagram influencers need a committed following, they also need these followers to engage with their content.
Many middle-tier influencers are lumped into direct-message groups called pods, filled with 15 other accounts also trying to make it big.
According to the influencer community, people in these groups are sharing their new posts all of the time, with the expectation that everyone else needs to engage with those accounts. Comments should be at least five words and include emojis, because that will help increase engagement.
Participating (or choosing not to participate) in groups like these can have an impact on how much one can make from their account.
Curious if your account has what it takes to start? Check for yourself here.
TL;DR1) Quitting your day job to live off of an Instagram-influencer salary is easier said than done, since accounts need to garner thousands of followers before they can even start to see a monetary profit.
2) Instagram influencers with under 10,000 followers can make, on average, $88.00 per post. Those with under 100,000 followers average $200.00 per post, but these numbers often vary account to account. Most accounts in this level are instead, gifted with free products or discounts for posting.
3) Accounts ranging from 250,000 to 500,000 followers can make a pretty penny posting on their accounts for brands, whether that be in a static picture, GIF-like video or an Instagram story. Once an influencer has reached one million followers, it’s safe to assume they are making quite a decent amount of money, and working very hard to maintain it.
Instagram Calculator - Estimate How Much It Costs to Advertise on Instagram!
How much does advertising on Instagram cost?
How much does it cost to advertise on an Instagram profile? How much do bloggers earn? You can check how much a blogger (or you) could earn from a particular publication, just paste the link to his post and click on the button.
The above tools are not official Instagram tools and are in no way affiliated with or endorsed by Instagram. This tool has been designed to provide potential bloggers and micro-bloggers with the opportunity to earn. nine0007
Unlike YouTube, where you sell ad space on your videos and channel page for ads at a rate determined by Google, Instagram doesn't compensate its users for showing ads on their posted photos. Instagram is owned by Facebook, so it culls Facebook ads on people's posts. So Instagram influencers and brands don't have middlemen or any set rates if they want to work together. Brands make deals with bloggers and micro-bloggers, and the cost of advertising on Instagram can vary markedly depending on the circumstances. However, in almost all cases, one thing remains the same: bloggers get paid more if they have a high level of engagement as well as a large number of followers. Brands are well aware that you can easily buy followers that are of no practical value to anyone.
Hence, they are much more interested in you having real followers, those who interact with your posts. nine0007
Compared to other social networks, Instagram accounts have a relatively high level of engagement. For example, the average Facebook or Twitter user only has an engagement rate of 0.5 – 1.0%. But, as account analysis shows, Instagram has an engagement rate of 3%. Any level of engagement above this, combined with a large following, suggests that you are an influencer among your peers. Our Instagram earnings calculator takes into account all these factors. We're looking at the average engagement rates of your last 12 Instagram posts (engagement is likes and comments on your posts). Example. If your engagement rate is less than 8% and the number of followers is less than 1000, you can expect to get paid less from brands than those bloggers who exceed the average engagement rate on their posts. nine0007
From a brand perspective, niche also matters. For example, fashion firms are much more likely to work with influential name bloggers than plumbing firms, and brand budgets are also highly dependent on niche.
Your Instagram account needs constant growth
Instagram doesn't have a standard way to make money, unlike YouTube and its Google Ads. Therefore, as a blogger, you need to find brands willing to pay you directly. nine0007
Any Instagrammer who wants to earn money should be attractive to the majority of the audience and be constantly active, fulfilling their priority task. You can improve your position in the following ways:
- By improving your bio so it is very clear who you are and who wants to follow you
- Conduct ongoing analysis of your Instagram account using a variety of services. (Read our article about 20 good services for Instagram)
- Like most social networks, Instagram likes to see evidence of regular posting, not sudden bursts of activity when you feel like you have free time. Publish
- High quality original photographs. Try taking pictures with a decent camera rather than just your phone.
You should be known for producing really good content (which in the case of Instagram is high quality images). nine0032 - Use relevant hashtags to help people in your niche find you from your tagged images, this is where a hashtag generator can help you
- Interact with your followers by commenting and liking their images and they are more likely to do the same in exchange for yours.
- Make a content plan, because consistency is a sign of excellence. Start with a simple list of topics you want to cover in your posts and expand as needed. nine0046
Also, in our recent article, we analyzed 9 ways to increase the activity of subscribers in your profile.
Sponsored posts
Sponsored posts are the most common form of collaboration between brands and Instagram influencers. So how much does it cost to charge for advertising on Instagram? Our calculator above is designed to show you the approximate cost of advertising on Instagram.
In this situation, the brand will typically reach out to someone it considers influential and offer to pay them to promote the sponsor's image to their followers. nine0007
Of course, to be effective, a sponsored post needs to fit well with the blogger's audience and look like a real influencer recommendation. In recent years, the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) has stepped in by this time, and sponsored posts are now required to be clearly labeled as such. As long as the product fits well with your profile audience, it doesn't matter if the post is tagged #promo or #promo.
A perfectly sponsored post shows how the brand's product fits perfectly into the life of a blogger and how it can just as easily fit into the lives of his or her followers. Top Instagram influencers, with thousands of active followers in a popular niche, can earn very lucrative fees for posting sponsored posts. The Grouphigh Influencer Marketing Report suggests that an average person blogger can charge between $200 and $500 per post.
nine0007
Those with over 100,000 followers are unheard of earning between $700 and $900 per photo. Those with 500,000 followers can get anywhere from $2,000 to $3,000 per photo posted.
Of course there are superstars. Kim Kardashian West was able to get $300,000 for posting on all of her social media. Of course, she has 87.1 million :). A typical post by any of the Kardashian/Jenners clan usually nets at least $200,000. Often, Insta bloggers create content and the brand has the right to reuse that content in their marketing and on their website. nine0007
Affiliate Marketing
Just like a blogger can promote an affiliate product on their blog, an Insta blogger can promote an affiliate product on their posts. You can work with a site like Shareasale to find the right products to promote.
Of course, like any other affiliate marketing, it will only be effective if the product you are promoting works well with your subscribers. If it just looks like an ad for an unrelated product, your subscribers won't be impressed and won't click through. They may even unfollow you in protest. nine0007
One of the technical barriers to Instagram affiliate marketing is that you share photos, not links. One way to solve this problem is to include an affiliate link (which you must first identify via a link shortener) in your photo captions.
How to make money on Instagram: all the ways
How to make money on Instagram* from scratch? You can become an SMM specialist and set up Instagram ads for your clients*. Or maintain their profiles so that they receive new orders - money is paid for all this. But it is much more interesting to maintain your profile and earn income. nine0007
Yes, someone keeps an account "for fun", and someone - to earn money. We tell you exactly how you can earn money on Instagram * on your profile, how much you can receive and what you need for this.
Ways to make money on Instagram*
Selling ads
The most obvious and common way to make money from your Instagram profile* is to sell ad integrations. You can do this in different ways:
- mention the account in the next post or story; nine0032
- talk about the product, just show it or mention that you use it yourself;
- place a link to the advertiser's website in the profile description or stories;
- to agitate to do something or express "one's" opinion in publications, and so on.
Advertising can be anything. For example, many bloggers said that they would go to the polls themselves and called on the audience to do so. Some campaigned for amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation and also received money for this. nine0007 Instagram ads* usually look something like this: a blogger shows a product and links to a profile where you can learn more about it
Advertisers will pay you not for the number of people who came from you, but simply for the fact advertising placement. But at the same time, they will track the results, and if they don’t like them, they are unlikely to contact you again.
And to tell advertisers that you are ready to place ad integrations, you can create a second account on Instagram* and leave a link to it in your profile description. Or indicate there a phone number or email address where you can be contacted. nine0007 An example of how you can leave contacts for communication about advertising integrations
And if there are not many subscribers yet, but you want to earn money right now, it is better to additionally register on the blogger exchanges: on Epicstars, LabelUp and others. Advertisers can look for bloggers with a small audience there, and you can get clients from both your Instagram profile* and exchanges.
Traffic arbitrage
It's like advertising integrations - you also have to promote some product or product. But the earnings scheme is arranged a little differently:
- traffic (people) will have to be directed directly to the advertiser's website, and for this - place a link in the description of the main profile or create an additional account and first promote it;
- you will be paid not for the very fact of placing an ad, but for the targeted actions of users who clicked on it: for example, 2% of the order of everyone who came from you.
The more loyal the audience is and the more purchases (orders, registrations) it makes, the more you earn. nine0007 Traffic arbitrage may look like this: a person offers to get a card with favorable service, and he gets money for each issued card
To be able to make money like this, you need to look for advertisers who are willing to pay according to a similar scheme. This can be done in CPA networks: this is the name of the "catalogues" of affiliate programs. The largest CPA network in Russia is Admitad: M.Video, Lamoda, OZON and other brands offer their programs there.
Optimum Instagram* is suitable for making money on the following products:
- Products for beauty, fitness, weight loss.
- Gadgets, fashion novelties, accessories, various wow-goods. Everything from which it is easy to make a beautiful picture and is designed for an impulse purchase.
- Offers for training or employment of students and recent graduates.
Accepting donations
In practice, this way of making money on Instagram* is rarely used. The bottom line is that you simply accept donations (voluntary money transfers) from subscribers. They can throw off money for different purposes: buying a new computer, overexposure of a sick animal, restoring a passport. nine0007 People are more willing to donate to people who really need help: those who find themselves in a difficult situation, get sick or organize a pet shelter
at DonationAlerts. If you make a link, people will be able to transfer money to you in different ways: from a card, from a mobile account or from electronic wallets.
Selling services
One of the most popular ways to make money on Instagram* is to sell your services. Many manicurists, SMM specialists, psychologists, cosmetologists and other specialists promote their profile in order to receive orders from there. Tarologists, business coaches, English teachers are not far behind - the list can be long.
nine0007 This is what the profile of a specialist who sells his/her services looks like on Instagram*
To sell services and make money from it, you need to be able to create high-quality interesting content, communicate with the audience, and work out objections.
Sale of information products
Another opportunity to make money, which famous bloggers often resort to, is the sale of their own information courses. You can teach your audience something you know yourself: promote your Instagram profile*, bake delicious cakes, sew handmade soft toys, and so on. nine0007 Elena Blinovskaya, for example, is running a wish-fulfillment marathon and has already sold an information product to more than 150,000 people time. Despite the fact that in an interview Sobchak did not show Elena Blinovskaya in the most favorable light, the subscribers of the information businesswoman supported her.
To make money selling information products, you need a loyal audience that will trust you.
And for this, pumping a personal brand is important - it is it that allows you to create an image of an expert in the eyes of users and increase loyalty to you. nine0007
Sale of merch
Merch is a product with symbols of a certain brand, person, team, and so on. You can sell merch immediately if you are engaged in the production of some goods. In this case, you will first create a profile, then you will recruit an audience.
Designer Olga, for example, sells her dresses all over the world, and additionally offers a franchise.You can do the opposite - gain an audience, and then offer them to buy a hoodie or dress with a pattern that you personally made. Your fans will certainly want to get some kind of product that will help them "join" you. True, you will have to look for someone who can produce these goods. nine0007 An example of how a blogger first got subscribers and then created his own merch
Many bloggers release something of their own: they create production from scratch or negotiate with factories to release goods with certain symbols.
Media personalities sell clothes, accessories and even cosmetics and perfumes under their own name.
Draining traffic to other sites
Another indirect way to make money on Instagram* is to attract followers to other sites. Where direct monetization is available or where you also earn by selling services, goods or accepting donations. nine0007
For example, you can leave a link in your Instagram profile* to a YouTube channel. Some users will subscribe to you there and watch the video, and you will be able to connect to the YouTube affiliate program and get paid for showing ads in your videos to users.
Artists often do this: for example, Alexei Vorobyov also drives traffic on YouTubeShop on Instagram*
Instagram Shopping is the integration of an e-commerce store into your Instagram profile*. This is the only way to sell directly to subscribers through posts, stories, the Browse tab, and the Store tab.
Shoppers can check the price of an item on the app and then go to the store with the click of a button. nine0007
Let's say you represent a clothing store on Instagram* and want to promote your brand. Simply upload a photo of a model wearing your outfit and Instagram* will allow you to tag up to five products per post or up to 20 products per carousel. You can also use stories and videos.
For example, Clever publishing house sells children's books on Instagram*Read more about the nuances of work and settings in the article "Instagram* Shopping - how to set it up in 2021".
Photos for sale
Instagram* is basically a photo-sharing app. And photos are assets that can be licensed, printed, and sold in a variety of ways.
If you have cool photos, you can list them on marketplaces where brands and publishers can license them. For example, 500px or Twenty20.
Another option is to sell your photos as prints on other products such as posters, phone cases, pillows.
All you need is to find a suitable service that will not only make the desired print, but also take care of the delivery. You will only have sales. There are such organizations in almost every more or less large city. nine0007
Daniel Arnold, a Brooklyn-based photographer, went from $90 to $15,000 in one day, according to Forbes. At that time, Arnold had a little over 20,000 subscribers. Now there are 329,000 of them.
One of Arnold's popular photosBrand Ambassador
Unlike a blogger who sells many one-time ad integrations, an ambassador works with the same brand for a long time.
Most companies benefit from establishing a long-term relationship with an influencer who regularly promotes the company in a positive way. The fact is that most often an opinion leader who becomes a brand ambassador already uses the company's product or a similar one, or broadcasts in a certain niche. He has an interested target audience who will not be surprised that a blogger supports and recommends a particular cosmetics or coffee variety.
nine0007
What brand ambassadors do:
- Give away free products in experimental campaigns.
- Broadcast speeches at conferences or stores to promote the brand.
- Interaction with consumers on your page.
- Increasing brand awareness. For example, a blogger wears branded T-shirts, caps, suits.
- Post quality content to increase user engagement.
Sale of AR masks
Augmented reality (AR) filters are various effects that are superimposed on what your camera shows.
Facebook's* Spark AR Studio platform allows users to create their own interactive augmented reality filters. They can be used in Instagram* and Facebook* Stories, as well as in Facebook* Messenger and Video Chat Portal with Friends.
Such masks can be sold to various brands, because AR masks are useful because:
- They help to emphasize the individuality of the brand, stand out from the competition.
- Communicate with the audience.
Interactive elements in Stories increased 3-second views 9 out of 10 times, says Facebook*, and 60% of businesses use them to increase monthly engagement. - Allows users to "try on" a product before buying or "wear" branded clothing.
- Increase brand awareness. An AR mask can be a company logo or mascot. And if the filter is not advertising, it will be displayed in the effects gallery, where it is available to anyone. In addition, when users take a selfie with a brand's AR mask, their followers will learn about the company. nine0032
Instagram augmented reality filter skills* can make good money.
It's all about making money on Instagram* from your account. I will not consider the option of how to make money without investments on likes, subscribers and views - it takes a lot of time and brings very little money, and this type of income is not pleasant to me.
Most often, it harms business, spoils statistics, helps scammers advance, and algorithms do not like it. nine0007
How much you can earn on Instagram*
Everything will depend on the quantity and quality of your audience. The more people follow you, the more you can charge for one ad integration or the more donations you can get. In the case of advertising integrations, you set the prices yourself.
A blogger with just over 500,000 subscribers charges 25,000 ₽ for one advertising integrationThose with more than 1 million subscribers can charge from 100,000 ₽ for one advertising post. And media personalities like Olga Buzova, Natalya Rudova, Nastasya Samburskaya can charge 200-300 thousand rubles for one post. nine0007
If you make money by selling information products, merchandise or services, everything will depend on how many people buy your product. But with a large audience, the amounts are impressive. For example, let's calculate the earnings of Elena Blinovskaya.
She herself says that she received more than 150,000 reviews, which means that there were no less sales.

What to do to earn a lot
Promote your profile and get a lot of followers: the more the better. There are two ways to go:
