Put a creator you follow on the board: fan listings, explained

Fans can pay to list a creator they follow on TopInfluencers.io. How a fan listing works, what the page says about who paid, and what the creator can do.

September 16, 20264 min readFor fans

The short version: A fan listing is a spot a fan pays for on behalf of a creator they follow. On TopInfluencers.io, you pick the platform, enter the creator's handle, choose an amount from $5, and pay. The listing page says plainly that it was listed and paid for by a fan, not by the creator, and the creator can have it removed on request. You manage the listing with a private link.

Your favourite creator deserves to be on the board.

Maybe they'd never put themselves there. That's what fan listings are for.

Listing someone else takes a couple of minutes, and a few rules keep it fair to the person you list.

How to list a creator you follow

Go to the join page and choose I'm a fan
Pick the creator's platform
Enter their handle. You can paste @name, the bare name or their full profile link
Hit Verify to pull their name, photo and follower count from the profile, so you know it's the right account
Choose your amount, from $5 up
Confirm you're 18 or older and that you understand how fan listings work, then pay

Not sure how to find their exact handle? This guide covers every platform.

What the listing says about who paid

Every listing page has a short line above the report link that says who put the listing there. For a fan listing, it reads that it was listed and paid for by a fan, not by the creator.

The share image follows the same rule and states that a fan paid. Nothing on the page implies the creator paid for, endorses, or works with the site.

Fan listings say who paid. That's what keeps them fun instead of awkward.

What you control

You get one private manage link after paying. With it you can:

Edit the card's display name and caption
Refresh the photo from their profile, which is moderated before it appears
Top up the total to climb the board
Hide the listing, or remove it

Keep the link private. Whoever has it controls the listing.

What the creator can do

The person you list stays in charge of whether they appear at all. They can ask for the listing to be removed, free of charge, once they show they own the account. Our removal page explains how.

If that happens, the listing comes down and the payment isn't refunded. It's worth thinking about whether the creator would enjoy the joke before you list them.

Good fan-listing etiquette

List public accounts only, and only creators you genuinely follow
Keep captions kind. Abusive, defamatory or harassing captions get listings removed without a refund
Don't pretend to be them. A listing that poses as self-listed is impersonation and comes down
Tell them, if you like. Sharing the page with the creator or their community is half the fun. Our guide to sharing a rank has ideas

Why list someone else?

People do it as a gift, a joke, a show of support, or a community project to push a favourite creator up a board. For other ways to back a creator directly on their platform, see ways to support a creator.

Questions about fan listings

Can I put someone else on the leaderboard?

Yes. Choose "I'm a fan" on the join page, enter the creator's public handle, pick an amount from $5 and pay. The listing page clearly states that a fan listed and paid for it, so nobody reads it as the creator's own listing.

Does the creator know I listed them?

Not unless someone tells them. The site doesn't notify the creator. You can share the listing page with them or their community using the share buttons on the page, and the page itself states that a fan listed it.

Can the creator remove a fan listing?

Yes. The person named can have a fan listing removed, free of charge, after showing they own the account. When a fan listing is removed, the fan's payment isn't refunded, so consider whether the creator would welcome it before you pay.

Can I add a photo to a fan listing?

Not one of your own. The card uses the account's profile picture, pulled from the platform when you hit Verify, and nobody can upload a different image. If the creator changes their picture, refresh it from your manage link. Every picture is moderated before it appears on the board, and the creator can still ask for the listing to be removed.

Does a fan listing mean the creator endorses the site?

No. A fan listing never states or implies that the named person paid for, endorses, or is affiliated with TopInfluencers.io. The listing page and share image both say a fan put it there, and the creator can have the listing removed at any time on request.
