The Problem Every Influencer Marketer Faces

‍

Traditional influencer analysis is painful. You're juggling multiple expensive tools, manually checking profiles across different platforms, and still missing crucial performance metrics. Most analytics extensions are either locked behind paywalls, limited to single platforms, or provide surface-level data that doesn't help with real decision-making.

‍

What if you could get comprehensive influencer insights across LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and X (Twitter) — all for free, directly in your browser?

‍

‍

Step 5: Review Rankings and Benchmarks

Industry Rankings: See how the influencer ranks within their niche

• "Top 15%" indicates strong performance in their category
• Rankings are updated regularly based on peer performance

‍

‍

Category Tagging: Automatic classification into relevant industries (e.g., Environment, Energy, Activism, Business).

• Helps verify if the influencer matches your target audience
• Multiple tags indicate cross-industry appeal

‍

Step 6: Examine Content Insights

‍

Top-Performing Posts: Preview the highest-engagement content

• Identify which content formats work best
• Understand audience preferences and interests
• Spot trends in successful content themes

‍

‍

Content Format Analysis: See which post types generate most engagement

• Videos vs. images vs. carousels
• Long-form vs. short-form content performance

‍

Step 7: Evaluate the Influence Score

‍

Each profile receives a comprehensive score (0-100) based on:

• Audience size and growth
• Engagement quality and consistency
• Content performance and reach
• Industry influence and authority

‍

Scores above 60 typically indicate strong influencer potential for collaborations.

‍

We can see Steven Bartlett’s impressive influence score of 97.5/100 on LinkedIn, 94.6/100 on YouTube, and 92.9/100 on TikTok, showing a strong multi-platform presence.

Common Analysis Mistakes to Avoid

‍

Don't Focus Only on Follower Count: High follower numbers mean nothing without engagement. Always check engagement rates and audience quality.

‍

Ignore Audience Demographics: Use additional platform insights to verify the influencer's audience matches your target market.

‍

Skip Content Quality Assessment: Numbers tell part of the story—review actual content to ensure brand alignment.

‍

Overlook Growth Patterns: Sudden follower spikes often indicate purchased followers or viral moments rather than sustained influence.

‍

To analyze profiles deeply and avoid these costly mistakes, you can use Favikon's advanced analytics platform to get the full picture in seconds and make data-driven influencer decisions with confidence.
