Content Quality Guidelines
Ensure your influencer marketing campaigns meet the highest standards with our comprehensive quality guidelines.
Content Quality Standards
High-quality content is essential for successful influencer marketing campaigns. These guidelines help ensure your content meets industry standards and delivers maximum impact.
Content Creation Guidelines
Every piece of influencer content should be evaluated against these standards before approval and after publishing.
Authenticity - Maintain genuine voice and personal style
Brief creators on objectives, not scripts — authentic content consistently outperforms overly produced posts.
Visual Quality - High-resolution images and clear video
Minimum 1080p for video, stable footage, and clean audio are non-negotiable baselines for brand-associated content.
Brand Alignment - Consistent with brand values and messaging
Content should reflect your brand tone without overriding the creator's authentic style and audience relationship.
Disclosure Compliance - Clear sponsorship and partnership disclosure
Use platform-native disclosure tools (#ad, #sponsored, paid partnership labels) in line with FTC and local regulations.
Audience Relevance - Content tailored to target audience interests
Irrelevant content drives low engagement and harms brand perception — verify creator audience alignment before briefing.
Platform-Specific Requirements
Different social media platforms have unique requirements for content format, duration, and style. Our guidelines cover best practices for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Twitter, and other major platforms.
Reels, Stories (9:16), and Feed posts (4:5). Use native paid partnership label.
TikTok
Vertical 9:16, 21–34s peak engagement. Disclose via branded content toggle for Spark Ads.
YouTube
Mid-roll integrations or dedicated videos. Require verbal and on-screen disclosure.

Threads, video clips, and carousels. Use #ad hashtag alongside any platform label.
