Ranking method

CA Influence Index™ (CII): how we grade Medellin creator influencers

CII is a market-relative score from 0 to 99. It combines local audience fit, engagement against creators of the same size, average Reel views, and estimated real-audience share. The creators above are ordered by this score, not by follower count.

25%of the score

Audience fit

How much of the audience sits in the Medellin creator market. Full marks once 80% of it is there.

30%of the score

Engagement

Likes and comments against creators of the same size here. Full marks at 3x that median.

30%of the score

View power

Average Reel views against follower count. Full marks at twice the following.

15%of the score

Audience quality

Share of followers reading as real people. Full marks at 90%.

Engagement is scored against the Medellin creator median for a creator’s own size: around 0.6% under 50K followers, around 0.4% above 250K. Both are rounded, because the study measures them by search rather than by census.

  • A+90-99
  • A80-89
  • B65-79
  • C50-64
  • Dunder 50

The score is capped at 99 so it never implies certainty. Read the full CA Influence Index methodology. The benchmark is local, not global. Here is the market behind it.

Market benchmark

The Colombian Instagram market behind this ranking

We measured the whole Colombian Instagram market first: 80,359 accounts with at least 10K followers. 50 of them passed this page's discovery screen, and the 25 below were selected from that group.

How the selected 25 compare with the Colombian Instagram market

Pink = the 25 Medellin creator influencers above.

Grey = every Colombian Instagram account we measure with at least 10,000 followers, all 80,359 of them.

Each bar is the share that clears the threshold, so a longer pink bar means more of the shortlist clears it than of the market.

Audience at least 40% based in Colombia

Source: the Click Analytic Colombian creator market study of 80,359 Instagram accounts, measured 2026-09-03. The market side is read from that study; the shortlist side is computed from the cards above.

Why Leonardo Castro is the #1 Medellin creator

Leonardo Castro tops this ranking with a CA Influence Index of 93 (A+), the highest of the 541 Medellin creators we screened.

The score breaks down like this

  • Audience in Colombia33.0%100/100

  • Average Reels reach against follower count1.7x83/100

No other account in this pool combines all four at this level.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Answers on how Medellin creators were found, what the index measures and who was removed.

01How were these 25 Medellin influencers chosen?

We started from the 80,359 Colombia-based Instagram accounts we track and kept the 541 who live in Medellin, hold at least 15 percent of their audience inside the city and sit between 20,000 and 200,000 followers. Those were screened for engagement, audience credibility, Reel views and recent activity, the largest 50 were exported, and 44 remained after removing organisations, office holders and a minor by hand.

02Why is the audience share so much lower than on a country page?

Because a city is a smaller place. Here the Medellin share runs from 16 to 54 percent, where a national page routinely shows 70 or 80 percent for the country. The index knows the difference: on a city page full marks arrive at 30 percent inside the city, so a creator with 40 percent of their audience in Medellin scores full marks on fit.

03Why is the biggest account not first?

Because size is not the measure here. The largest account in the pool has 197,000 followers and Reels that reach about three in ten of them. Leonardo Castro has 147,000 and Reels reaching more than one and a half times his following, on almost sixteen times the Colombian median engagement rate for his size. The index ranks the second higher.

04Who was removed by hand?

A member of Congress, the media account of a political movement, a city councillor, a luxury-car spotting page, a documentary brand and a fifteen-year-old academy footballer. Office holders and organisations are not creators a brand can hire, and we do not publish minors on a page used for hiring.

05How does Medellin compare with the rest of Colombia?

It is the deepest city field we hold here. 541 accounts clear this screen in Medellin, against 224 in Cali, 220 in Barranquilla and 68 in Bucaramanga. That means a brief in Medellin has real choice, and it also means a shortlist of 25 is genuinely selective rather than most of the market.

06How current is this?

Every account posted within 30 days of the Sep 4, 2026 snapshot. Follower counts, engagement, Reel views and audience shares are read at that date and move week to week at this size, so re-check before a campaign.
