When it comes to growing your reach or monetizing your blog, joining an influencer or blogger network is one of the most important steps you can take. When a blogger or influencer joins The Network Niche Influencer Network, we open them to opportunities they may not get by going it alone. Some blogger and influencer networks cater to specific audiences or niches. There are blogger networks for moms, parents, dog lovers, fitness enthusiasts, etc. Our community, however, ranges from food influencers to parenting experts to marketers who create money-making content. Here’s a look at the benefits of joining an influencer network.
Benefits of Joining an Influencer Network
1. Connections to brands for paid campaigns
We have connections to Fortune 500 companies and growing brands who see the value in telling their stories with influencers. Our community members have worked with brands like HP, The Home Depot, McDonald’s, Uncle Ben’s, Summer’s Eve, and African Pride.
When we launch a sponsored campaign, we offer influencers the opportunity to opt-in to apply for a campaign, then with the brand’s approval, influencers are confirmed and selected. Once an influencer is confirmed for a campaign, we guide the influencers on the messaging for the post or the social media shares, the deliverables for each campaign, and the call to action brands want the influencers to include per campaign.
You can join The Network Niche no matter where you are in your stage of blogging or creation social media content.

3. Industry News & Tutorials
On all of our social media profiles, you’ll find industry news headlines. We keep our eyes on trends and breaking news in the social media industry.

Her past marketing roles include working in-house at an award-winning, full-service ad agency as the Social Media Strategist, the Director of Marketing & Communications for a law school, and for a Global Fortune 500.

By teaming up with fellow bloggers, asking questions and collaborating on projects – we all benefit.
Our community members have traveled together on press trips and worked to support non-profit causes that need attention.
5. Support from fellow bloggers
We have a community of influencers who love and support each other. We share each other’s content. We attend blogging conferences and events together.
Our Facebook group is a go-to spot to ask about plugins or new approaches to grow.
We pride ourselves on celebrating the achievements of our community of bloggers when they launch a product, sell a book, appear on a TV segment or book a TV commercial.
