      Accounts with between fifty thousand and two hundred thousand followers are considered “microinfluencers,” and tend to have higher engagement rates—that is, a larger share of their followers like, favorite, or comment on their posts—than those with millions of followers.
    • 2018 November 11, Sapna Maheshwari, “Are You Ready for the Nanoinfluencers?”, in The New York Times:
      By now you have probably heard of influencers, that group of internet-famous people who have more than a million social media followers and can make big money by plugging various brands.
