Have you ever wondered which are the most mentioned brands on Instagram? While brands upload their own content and Instagram shows you sponsored ads it thinks you’d like, we wanted to know which brands Instagram influencers are talking about.
We looked at 8 different popular categories of influencers to find out which was the most mentioned brand in each. So, courtesy of Heepsy, here are the most mentioned brands in the music, fashion, food, pets, travel, weddings, fitness and mommy categories.
Most mentioned brand in music
Spotify was the most mentioned music brand, with 9.9K mentions. With nearly 300 million monthly users, the streaming service has enormous presence, and currently beats out artists like Beyoncé and Cardi B when it comes to social mentions. The brand uses its social media account to profile artists and new music debuts.
Most mentioned in fashion
The most tagged brand by influencers on Instagram isn’t a luxury fashion label. Au contraire. Spanish fast fashion chain Zara was the most mentioned fashion brand. Amancio Ortega, the company’s founder, is the richest man in Spain. And now his brand is the most mentioned fashion brand in the world.
Most mentioned in food
The top brand in this category wasn’t actually a food brand, but rather another social network. Pinterest topped the list for the most mentioned brand in food. Since Pinterest is a hot spot for sharing and curating recipes, it makes sense that food influencers would talk about the brand.
Most mentioned in pets
National Geographic ranked as the most mentioned brand in the pets category. Although it may be more famous for its coverage of wild animals, the brand also explores the relationship between humans and their domesticated animals, and even produces some pet supplies.
Most mentioned brand in travel
Climate positive and sustainable brand Beautiful Destinations topped the list when it comes to mentions in the travel category. The brand regularly reposts travel photographs from other Instagram users. This is a great strategy to both assist in your brand’s content creation, engage your audience, and potentially find influencers for future collaborations.
Most mentioned in weddings
Wedding Sutra is a one-stop shop for Indian weddings. The platform offers planning advice, vendors, and resources for Indian couples preparing their weddings. So why is it the most mentioned wedding brand on Instagram? Well, not only does India have one of the world’s largest populations, but Indian weddings are a seriously big deal.
Most mentioned in fitness
When it comes to fitness, the most mentioned brand wasn’t a sports-centered company like Nike or Adidas. Rather, American fashion label Calvin Klein took the top spot. The company is famous for its underwear, but it also produces activewear and embraces the athleisure style.
Most mentioned brand in mommy
The brands that the most mommy influencers mentioned was Urban Decay. The California-based cosmetics company promises cruelty-free beauty and is sold in various department stores and cosmetics outlets like Sephora. Even moms want to look good, and Urban Decay features products, like its primer potion and setting spray, that promise to keep you looking fresh no matter how busy you are.
