Ranking method

CA Influence Index™ (CII): how we grade Dortmund 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 German 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 German median for a creator’s own size: around 1% under 50K followers, around 0.9% 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 national, not global. Here is the market behind it.

Market benchmark

The German Instagram market behind this ranking

The 25 influencers above against the German Instagram market: each row puts their median next to the market's.

Read the Germany Creator Economy Report, the measurement this chart is scored against.

How the selected 25 compare with Germany

  • Pink = the 25 Dortmund influencers above
  • Grey = a typical German Instagram account with 10K+ followers
  • Each bar is a median, not an average, so one very large account cannot pull a row up

Median German audience share

the selected 25: 71%
German influencers: 27%

Median engagement rate

the selected 25: 8.4%
German influencers: 1.1%

Median Reel views per post

the selected 25: 87,920
German influencers: 6,500

Source: the Click Analytic German market study, measured 2 September 2026. Grey bars show median estimates for Instagram creators in Germany with at least 10,000 followers and at least 1% local-audience share. The study includes accounts with an inferred creator gender; market medians are rounded estimates. Pink bars are computed from the 25 cards above.

Why Corni Küpper is the #1 Dortmund creator

Corni Küpper tops this ranking with a CA Influence Index of 99 (A+), the joint highest among the selected accounts on this page.

The score breaks down like this

  • Audience in Germany82.0%100/100
  • Engagement against the market median for this size7.31%, 6.1x100/100
  • Average Reels reach against follower count2.3x100/100
  • Share of the audience that is real93%100/100

The top of this list is tight: 15 creators grade A+, so the component bars on each card are what separate them.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Here is what the numbers behind this Dortmund list mean and how the 25 were picked.

01How were the 25 Dortmund creators chosen?

Start with Dortmund accounts of 10,000 to 1,000,000 followers, keep only those with a 10% German audience, 1% engagement, 60% real followers, 1,000 average Reel views and a recent post, remove anything that is not a named person, then rank by the CA Influence Index and publish the top 25.

02What does the CA Influence Index measure?

The index blends Dortmund audience share, real follower share, engagement against German accounts of the same size, Reel views relative to followers and posting recency. The German median engagement rate for accounts with 10,000 to 50,000 followers is 1.2%. The median engagement rate on this page is 8.36%, about 6.97 times that band median.

03How much of each audience is in Dortmund?

The median Dortmund audience share among the 25 is 71%. The highest is 84% for Maximilian Beier (maxbeier.14). The lowest is 19% for Sedraswery (sedraswery).

04Who is actually on this list?

The roster splits into professional footballers, a football club media ambassador, sports broadcasters, a professional handball player, reality television cast members, a TV news reporter, a car engine builder, photographers and a video production creator, family and lifestyle creators, a nightlife venue account, an account tagged to a management contact and a record label, a beauty and fashion business owner and a zoo communications officer.

05How current is this data?

The numbers on this page were pulled from Instagram in September 2026, including followers, engagement rate, average Reel views, Dortmund audience share and real follower share.

06Why does follower count not decide the order?

Marco Degenhardt (m.a.r.c.o_degenhardt) carries the most followers on this page at 238,580, yet Corni Küpper (c_kuepper) leads the CA Influence Index with a score of 99, because the index scores Dortmund audience share, real followers, engagement and Reel views rather than follower count.
