Creators are ranked by follower count, from the most followed down, among the public profiles that match this ranking's filters. Heepsy refreshes the ranking every month with the latest public data, and this version was updated in November 2026. Each card shows an audience quality score, so you can spot accounts with suspicious followers.
The creators in this ranking have an average engagement rate of 0.3%. Engagement usually drops as follower count grows, so smaller creators often show higher rates than the accounts at the top of the list. Heepsy calculates engagement rate as the average likes and comments on recent posts divided by follower count, excluding suspicious activity.
Rates depend mainly on follower count, engagement rate, content format and usage rights, so prices vary widely even within the same ranking. Heepsy shows a price estimate on each creator's full profile: click "Unlock full profile" and sign up for free to see pricing, audience demographics, authenticity and growth.
