Hello guys,

I have read somewhere that Instagram is planning to make like count on photos invisible. Is it true?

How this Instagram move will affect influencers and making money opportunities from Instagram?

It won't affect them too much, the traffic is still there.

Its already happened for the western user, perhaps showing the reach on analytics as the measure? Ads agency works getting harder I think

At them moment likes are hidden in 8 countries for most of IG user. If this update will be released worldwide it will not effect big influencers at all, likes or insights are important if the influencer need some collabs. All these services can easily bought on SMM panels

It is in test phase and even Instagram is trying to study what happens or how it impacts the user and creators, as per resources this move is to improve the quality of content , much cannot be said until further reveal by instagram

Won't effect much for influencers, but just small scale SMM panels & re-sellers.

However I never looked at likes count but rather I watch followers.. I don't think it will influence .. anything.

It is in beta in some countries i.e. canada, australia, brazil.... the aim is to increase the quality of content and make users pay for advertising as opposed to pay influencers
