A new study from influencer marketing platform Influence.co provides a fascinating glimpse into the kinds of deals that are proliferating across Instagram today, including the fact that the average price for a sponsored post on the platform is roughly $300.
According to the study, men charge more per sponsored post than women. And while the average post sets brands back $300, that number shoots up to $800 for Instagram influencers with more than 100,000 followers, AdWeek reports. Influencers with 1,000 followers or less — though they tend to be more engaged with their audiences — tend to earn around $100 per post.
The most well-paid influencers on Instagram, in terms of price per post, are modeling accounts, per AdWeek, which notes that models make on average $434 per sponsored post. Other lucrative niches include photographers, who make on average $385 per sponsored post, followed by food accounts ($326), pets ($320), fitness ($306), fashion ($217), beauty ($205), travel ($205), music ($201), and lifestyle ($172).
