During our preliminary research, we were able to determine the top influencer industries for Instagram and Twitter. However, we were unable to determine the top influencer industries for the remaining social media platforms.
In order to provide you with the remainder of the information you have requested, we suggest diving deeper with additional research to determine the top 3-5 influencer industries for Facebook, Snapchat, TikTok, and YouTube.
"Top" will either be defined as the industries whose influencers collectively have the most followers/subscribers for their respective industry OR the industries that are related to the top influencers (by follower/subscriber count) for each platform.
