📝 Your guide to finding Chinese influencers

In general, there are two ways to find China-based influencers: searching for influencers manually or using an influencer search tool. Here are some tips for both approaches!

1. Searching for influencers on Google

The easiest way to find influencers is by searching on Google – you might have already given it a shot! You can search for keywords like top Chinese influencers, Chinese bloggers, or influencers in Beijing. The more precise your search words are, the more accurate results you’ll find!

2. Searching manually on social media

Another way to find influencers is by searching by hashtags and keywords on Instagram: make sure to check relevant hashtags like #China, #Chineseinfluencer, or #Chineseblogger. If you’re looking for influencers in a specific city, try keywords and hashtags related to these cities.

Secondly, you can check locations like China, Beijing, and other major cities. Additionally, you can check local restaurants, cafes, and other places that influencers might go to.

Once you’ve found an influencer you’d like to work with, you can check profiles that are similar to theirs. This way, you will see a list of similar influencers you might want to work with!

When it comes to manually finding influencers on TikTok, the search process works in a similar way: you can search using hashtags, keywords, and phrases. Sometimes, the TikTok search works even better!

When using your phone, you can even apply filters to your search. If you’re specifically looking for influencers, choose “Users” from the top menu and use the filters to view profiles with more than 10,000 or 100,000 followers.

 

3. Using an influencer search tool

If you don’t want to spend a lot of time searching for influencers on your own, we suggest using an influencer search tool.

Promoty is one of such tools. We have a massive database with 250 million social media influencers from all around the world. By applying filters based on influencers’ interests, location, social media statistics, audience demographics, and other criteria, you can easily discover the perfect influencers for your brand.

If you’re looking for China-based influencers, just set the Location field to “China” or any relevant city in China – or use the keyword search.

If you’re looking for influencers with a Chinese audience, set the Audience Location field to “China”. Additionally, you can filter influencers by age, gender, location, audience demographics, and other criteria.

 

Using Promoty to find TikTokinfluencers

 

For every influencer, you can see their detailed profile analytics: engagement rate, average likes, audience demographics (age, location, gender), followers’ credibility, previous sponsored posts, followers’ growth over time, similar profiles, and more.

That helps you to spot fake followers and find relevant influencers whose audience matches your target group.
