FAQ

Frequently asked questions

These questions explain the selection, its coverage and the limits of the underlying measurements.

01How were these American influencers selected?

We reviewed 100 saved accounts from two consecutive pages of the same US Instagram query and selected 25 identifiable people or creator-led groups. Their source screen covered audience location, engagement, real followers, Reel views and recent activity. The final order uses the CA Influence Index.

02Does this ranking cover every American influencer?

No. It is a curated selection from 100 downloaded candidate accounts, downloaded with larger accounts first. It does not establish an exhaustive national top 25, and the separate US market study is used as a benchmark rather than as the list of creators reviewed.

03Which kinds of influencers are represented?

Home renovation includes Kate and Stacie Grissom, while Briana Bosch covers gardening and sustainable home topics. Kevin Lee and Erin contribute cooking, Cliff Benfield animation and Gerry Brooks education. These roles describe this selected roster, rather than the distribution of professions across all US influencers.

04What does US audience share mean here?

It is the measured share of each account's audience located in the United States, not a statement about the creator's citizenship. The selected accounts have a median US audience share of 74%. Creator location was a separate filter in the saved source query.

05Which market benchmark is used for the index?

The comparison uses the United States Instagram study dated 15 September 2026. Its engagement medians are 0.79% for the 10K-50K band and 0.56% for 250K-plus accounts. Candidate measurements come from 7 September, so the two sources retain their separate dates.

06Does a high grade prove an influencer will deliver sales?

No. The score combines measured audience fit, engagement, relative Reel reach and real-audience share. It does not measure campaign sales, guarantee availability or quote a sponsorship price. Review recent relevant content and request campaign-specific terms before deciding whom to approach.
