- Business Challenges
Make sure influencer stats are up to date
While other providers can help AvantLinks with conventional affiliate data, the team needed a service that specializes in influencer analytics to keep their influencer database relevant and up to date.
Integrating multiple influencer data into AvantLink's system
As a seasoned player in affiliate marketing, AvantLink has developed its verification workflow to ensure the most credible publishers are added to its database and tools to help businesses connect with content creators. Often, companies opt for API solutions in such cases, which don’t overthrow their own mechanisms while enriching them with relevant data.
- HypeAuditor as the Solution:
Enhance its discovery service with up-to-date influencer data
Among the huge data sets that HypeAuditor offers, AvantLink is primarily interested in data that works on all platforms, such as AQS for Instagram and TikTok influencers, or CQS for YouTubers. HypeAuditor's API allows AvantLink to effortlessly feed its own discovery tool with daily updated and quality data about influencers already in their network.
- The result:
HypeAuditor's API allows AvantLink to pull content creator data into their database so that their merchant partners can identify the most suitable influencers
AvantLink plans to revamp its discovery tool in the near future to provide more elaborate analytics on its affiliate partners. This will allow AvantLink to utilize HypeAuditor's vast data set to its full potential.
