Everyone loves seeing the top Instagram accounts in their city, and also in the cities that they are about to visit. It helps give visitors an idea of what there is to do, see and eat in the destination, and of course, help them find that perfect Instagram spot. For destinations, finding local influencers can be the key to reaching a larger group of people and increasing your social reach.
It is not as easy to find the best Instagrammers in your destination as it may seem, especially if you're doing it manually. Using the CrowdRiff platform, a quick way to discover the top Instagrammers in your city is to use the Search Insights tab to see which instagram contributors have the most posts in your library. It's an easy, and effective shortcut to finding the top photographers to request rights from or team up with. Using this feature, we pulled together this awesome list of the top ten Instagrammers of Portland.
