Our Power List of Top UK Influencers

UK Influencers: 8 Social Media Powerhouses from Across the Pond

Influencers are everywhere. Some of the biggest influencers in the business right now are based across the pond in the good old United Kingdom. The land of tea, rain, and red buses has some serious clout when it comes to creating top-level social media influencers who can help brands make money.

The UK boasts one of the most profitable consumer markets in the world. If your brand is not already tapping into this flourishing market with your branding – you could be seriously missing out. Many consumers in the UK prefer the personalised approach to marketing, and are often mistrusting of big brands and companies. This could explain why influencer marketing is so successful there.

From fashion to family to video games, there are influencers of every shape and size in the UK, and below, we’ve gathered together some of our top picks across the board.

ZOELLA
