In Belarus, the highest earnings for bloggers can reach up to 22,000 BYN.
In the world of social media, Belarusian bloggers are making a name for themselves, particularly on Instagram. The earnings of these content creators vary widely, depending on factors such as follower count, engagement, and niche.
Anna Karaurova, a radiologist, has seen growth in her blog by showcasing the inside of her work. She has collaborated with large Belarusian and international brands such as HONOR, Coca-Cola, Bremor, Snickers, LG, and many others. Her success story is a testament to the potential of blogging as a career.
Another successful example is Yulia Nikolaychuk, who uses her blog to promote and sell her family's strawberries. For bloggers with views between 5,000-10,000, the earning range is 150-350 BYN. As views increase to between 10,000-20,000, the earning range rises to 400-800 BYN.
However, fear and embarrassment can hinder one's ability to become a successful blogger. Overcoming these feelings is essential for success. It's also worth noting that large brands typically do not buy ads from authors with small followings; they require reach and large audiences.
For those who manage to build a significant following, creating and selling one's own info-products and promoting one's own business are other ways to make money from a blog. Placing ads in your account is not the only way to monetize a blog; offering advertising services to businesses, shooting content for them, and managing social media accounts for companies are other options.
Influencer marketing trends suggest that payments for Instagram stories or reels usually depend on follower count, engagement rate, and niche. Micro-influencers (tens or hundreds of thousands of followers) might earn from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars per sponsored story or reel, while larger influencers with millions of followers can command significantly higher fees, often several thousand dollars per story or reel.
Small bloggers can work on a barter basis, and some sellers from "Wildberries" are open to this arrangement. To find potential advertisers, content creators can write to brand accounts, and it is recommended to write to 20 accounts to potentially receive one offer.
It's important to remember that the expectation of immediate monetary gain is a common disappointment for beginner content creators. Success often comes with time, consistency, and a genuine passion for creating content from the heart.
Anna Timoschenko, a Belarusian influencer marketer with 8 years of experience in Belarusian advertising agencies, emphasizes the importance of a successful pitch letter. The letter should show that the content creator is thinking about the brand's growth, not just their own gain. The highest royalty paid to a Belarusian influencer was 22,000 BYN last year.
In conclusion, Belarusian bloggers' Instagram earnings per story series or reel likely range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars depending on their audience size and influence. However, exact standardized rates for Belarus are not publicly available from the current data. Starting with TikTok and Instagram is recommended for those who want to start a blog and make money from it, as these platforms are known for bringing in new audiences.
