Frequently Asked Questions
How is this rate estimated?
This uses a common industry heuristic of roughly $10 per 1,000 followers at an average 3% engagement rate, then scales up or down based on your actual engagement rate relative to that average.
Why does engagement rate matter more than follower count?
Brands increasingly prioritize engaged, active audiences over raw follower count, since high engagement signals a more attentive audience likely to act on a sponsored post — accounts with purchased or inactive followers convert poorly despite large numbers.
Is this rate guaranteed to work with brands?
No, this is a starting reference point only — actual rates depend heavily on niche, audience demographics, content quality, exclusivity terms, and your negotiating position with each specific brand.
