Abstract

The professional instagrammers offer engaging content that mixes with advertising to attract audiences in the hundreds of thousands. This article examines 45 Instagram accounts of Spanish-speaking influencers that publish content of different themes (maternity and child raising, fashion, cosmetics, and fitness) and for different audience sizes: medium (100.000-1.000.000) and big audiences (more than a million). Content analysis methodology is used with 4500 posts. Differences and similarities in disclosure and content creation strategies are discussed by theme and audience size. The results show that the content in Instagram is functioning as an undisclosed advertising space: brands are present in 2 out of 3 posts. However, in 80% of the cases the promotional nature of the content is not disclosed.
