The media monitoring feature on the influencer profile is designed to help you to vet influencers you're thinking of working with. It does this by automatically searching a database of online media for mentions of the influencer alongside key B2B topics, then summarising some key data on the articles found. We check 270k outlets globally, retrieving 1.5m articles monthly to save you hours of searching to check the background and online footprint of an influencer.
Methodology
Once a month, searches are run for 90k influencers by name, combined with keywords from around 200 key B2B topics. Most articles which match these criteria (with a few exceptions for violent or explicit language) will be assigned to the influencer's profile to be analysed. The data that you see in the Online Media tab of the profile is based on these articles.
