FAQs

How fresh are the influencer metrics in this Top-20 list?

Metrics reflect rolling last-30-day activity. Profiles and key stats refresh in seconds when pasted. ER%, views and cadence are normalized to compare platforms fairly. The Top-20 snapshot shows recent engagement and audience signals, not historical forecasts or long-term trends.

Can I export these Top-20 profiles and contact details immediately?

Yes. Exports require signup. After you sign in, download profile analyses, contact fields and the Top-20 as CSV, PDF or Google Sheet. Profiles and contact data refresh in seconds when pasted, and exports come from live, last-30-day normalized metrics.

How does IQFluence normalize engagement and views across platforms?

We average last-30-day likes/comments and view counts, then adjust for follower size and posting cadence. Metrics are scaled into comparable ER% and view bands - min/avg/max - so Instagram, TikTok and YouTube sit on the same axis for fair side-by-side comparison.

Can I build a media plan from this Top-20 before buying a license?

Yes. Use the Top-20 as a live shortlist. Add rows into Media Plan Builder after signup. The sheet includes followers, ER%, min/avg/max views, cadence, audience splits and outreach fields. IQFluence does not auto-forecast - build projections from the provided L30D stats.

Can I use lookalike search to find creators like the Top-20 list?

Yes. Use a seed handle from the Top-20 and run Lookalike Search. The tool ranks creators with similar audiences, themes, engagement and growth. Results use semantic matching plus audience verification - so you get creators that mirror topical fit and audience makeup, not just surface keywords.

How do you verify audience authenticity and fraud for these creators?

We run multi-layer checks on follower and engagement signals. Patterns of sudden follower spikes, bot-like commenting, and recycled accounts trigger flags. Audience geography, language and gender distributions are compared to expected norms. Last-30-day activity, ER trends and view distributions verify reachability and spot fraud.
