Keys to Identifying the Right YouTube Influencers

Not every YouTube influencer is the perfect match for your brand. There are a few things to take into consideration before you reach out to an influencer:

Engagement

While it may seem that if a YouTube influencer has a ton of followers, that equates to being a good match. However, you also have to take a look at their engagement rate.

Keep an eye on their interactions with their followers on their posts. If you don’t see a substantial amount of followers engaging with their content, keep looking.

Reach

Reach is the number of followers/subscribers the influencer has. You can also take a look at the number of visitors an influencer attracts to their website.

The higher the number, the more significant outreach they’re likely to have with their audience.

Relevance

The right YouTube influencer will be relevant to your field. A YouTuber who creates make-up tutorials won’t be a good fit if you own an auto company.

Make sure their niche aligns with your brand, industry, and product.

Follow Influencers

One of the easiest things you can do is to begin following YouTube influencers. By following influencers, you can consume content on the same level as your target market does.

You’ll also be able to see which marketing influencers best align with your brand. Check out how often they post and what the quality level of the content is.

Investigate their saturation rate of sponsored content to unpaid content.

Look at the YouTube Trending Tab

Every YouTube creator wants to have a video trending on YouTube. And only the hottest and latest videos make it to the trending page.

Creators reach that page only by finding an enthusiastic audience who responds positively to the content posted. You can even search the trending tab for creators relevant to your brand.
