Instagram Unveils New ‘Creator Profile’ Option That Puts Users' Audience Reach On Display

Instagram will soon be rolling out a new creator profile option for more users.

The feature will reportedly showcase a creator’s audience reach and any work related to brands, the company announced this week.

This will arise in the form of a unique media kit so that profile building becomes simpler than before. Creators can begin by utilizing their Professional Dashboard for creation that’s located on the app. Hence, the process will make it so much simpler now for creators to reach out to brands and pitch their offerings than before. Moreover, there’s also going to be a new view option that ensures marketing deals conducted by influencers are more secure when compared to previous times.


You can best envision it as a different marketplace for listings and that’s where you’ll see influencers putting forward the data in the form of a unique showcase. But remember that the new Creator Profile option allows so many users to put out profiles directly with various partners on the app.

This feature was first seen through a series of tests that were conducted last month. But we’ve seen the app refine the offers in recent times.

During the early part of this month, it was Alessandro Paluzzi who really added extra effort to welcome the screen offering on display, thanks to reverse engineering techniques where back-end codes were used to glance over the work.

Instagram says it has really been putting in a lot of effort to enhance the great amount of talent that its creators have so they can benefit. This is a smart move to prevent so many leading creators from shifting gears and migrating to popular video apps and fellow archrivals like YouTube or TikTok. And in case you didn’t know, Adam Mosseri called this move a huge priority for the platform as the stakes are higher than ever and the app doesn’t want to lose out on big stars.

But Mosseri also noted how the platform is falling behind in terms of some quintessential areas in the talent race.

Recent surveys conducted by the app are showing some rather unique finds. Instagram has fallen short against leading apps like YouTube and TikTok in all aspects that are considered pivotal for customer satisfaction. This includes a few that are related to generating revenue from a creator’s point of view as are factors like fun, algorithms, and audience reach.

Mosseri also revealed that his team’s surveys proved how Instagram isn’t quite where it should be and is falling behind with its initiatives to assist creators in making more money through the app. Still, it’s working hard and upping its game with plenty of progress being seen along the way.

This new feature will definitely be an integral part of the push for Instagram’s success and new content generation through profiles that users aren’t currently following in their feeds. Here, the main idea is to achieve diversity in content for more audiences.

This further paves the way for maximal engagement on the app if Instagram can nail its algorithm targeting. At the same time, it can also give rise to more distribution of different types of content thanks to emerging talent spread out toward a larger scale audience. Only then can we hope for better Creator engagement statistics and some more chances. See, the goal is to make creators post more frequently on the platform.

The goals are plenty and the stakes are high, so whether or not Instagram can beat out the king of social media apps, TikTok, only time can tell. And let’s not forget how YouTube is really doing a fabulous job at providing more monetization chances for users. Nevertheless, Instagram has its own popularity and there are plenty of chances for creators of the app to avail. But thanks to new features such as these, expansion is definitely on the rise.

As far as release is concerned, Creator Profiles will be officially launched for Instagram users as early as next month. So we suggest you keep an eye out for that in case you’re interested.
