How Long Does It Take Influencers to Earn Rent by State

Post by ashammi244 »

Since Instagram and TikTok have exploded, a new avenue for making a living has been opened to those with hundreds of thousands of followers. It seems like an easy gig; posting pictures and videos of your favorite brands as an Instagram influencer has taken off as a marketing tactic, and as a result, the demand for influencers is growing. But how much do influencers make exactly? Our team decided to investigate to see how quickly your favorite Instagram influencer could earn your rent.

Using government data and recent articles outlining the telegram database earning potential of social media influencers, our team was able to compare and contrast how long the average people in every state need to work to earn rent or mortgage payments, and then compared that to how often influencers need to post to earn the same amount of money. We included three different levels of influencers in this study, microinfluencers, medium influencers, and megainfluencers. A full breakdown of how we defined these influencer levels as well as our data sources and cost calculations can be found in the ‘Methodology’ section at the end of this post.

Naturally, mega-influencers have to post far fewer times than micro-influencers to earn their monthly mortgage payment. In fact, the most a major Instagram influencer will ever have to post to earn their monthly mortgage is 2.68 times in Washington D.C. There are only 8 total states where a mega-influencer has to post on average more than twice to make their mortgage payment.

Meanwhile, a single post in West Virginia will go a long way. A mega-influencer only needs 1.05 posts to cover a mortgage payment in West Virginia and Arkansas comes in right behind that with 1.09 posts needed to pay an average mortgage. An Instagram influencer salary sounds pretty good in those areas!

This data is a major tribute to not discounting the little guy! Even a micro-influencer can make rent in Hawaii with fewer than 17 monthly posts… and let’s be honest, it’s easy to get great pictures anywhere in Hawaii! You can rent anywhere in America if you’re a micro-influencer who posts 20 times per month. Of course, if you’re looking for somewhere more affordable, West Virginia, Arkansas, South Dakota, Kentucky, and Mississippi all have average rents that can be covered with under 10 social media posts by micro-influencers.
