FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Six questions on how the UK travel list was built and how to read it.

01Who is the top travel influencer in the UK on this list?

On the CA Influence Index, Jonny, at A+ 97: Reels reach twice the following and 86% of the audience sits in the UK. The largest account, Nicola King at 230,131 followers, grades B 71 and sits twenty-first.

02Why do small accounts lead?

Because the index reads Reel reach, home audience and quality, not size. Benji Lever, at 22,278 followers, reaches four times the following per Reel, the best ratio here, which scores A+ 95.

03How British are these travel audiences?

The UK share runs from 32% to 87%, with a median of 76%. London Travel & Hidden Gems, Beth McColl and Maryna Boltuts sit at 41% or under, so a campaign that has to land in the UK should read the audience bar first.

04What kinds of travel creators are on the page?

Van lifers and full-time travellers lead, from Max Cullen to Our Van Tales and Those Happy Days. Around them sit hikers and outdoor creators, family travel feeds, a travel illustrator, an author and podcaster, a London hidden gems guide and countryside guides.

05Is this travel in the UK or UK creators abroad?

Both appear. Some post UK days out and countryside, like Nicola King and SJ; others travel far, like Max Cullen, with 53 countries so far, and Those Happy Days, currently in the USA. The audience bar shows who follows each.

06How current is this data?

Measured in September 2026 from live Click Analytic data. Travel accounts move fast, a single trip can double a month of views, so check the live profile in the app before briefing anyone.
