Just like any other small country, Singapore has a blogging community known as "influencers". These are individuals who are active on the microblogging site called Instagram and are able to drive large volumes of traffic to their websites. Recently Singapore implemented an Instagram-like platform known as Mezo, but for our purposes in this article we will be focusing on influencers in Singapore and the impact they have on the local market. Singapore is emerging as a social media hub for the global microblogging community. Millions of users are logging in every day to add friends and interact with others.

A microblogger just like any other social media influencer needs to find an appropriate platform which will allow them to connect with their target audience. Singapore's blogosphere provides ample opportunities for influencers to do that. Singaporean bloggers love blogging about current events, food, and most recently fashion which have a huge following on Instagram.

Singaporean social media influencers have also been popularizing Singapore's culture and cuisines that are not widely known outside the country. Singaporean influencers are creating huge buzz about local products and services which attract enormous following on Instagram. These influencers can be viewed as an ambassador who bridges a niche market that might otherwise not be reached by traditional marketing methods. For example, top influencers in Singapore Peter Koh posted some pictures from a recent trip to McDonald's which was promptly commented on Instagram by users from all around the world.

The beauty of social media influencers in Singapore is that they are able to reach out to a very specific group of consumers because of the microblogging platform's accessibility. For example, a Singaporean blogger could easily engage with his or her target market on Instagram because of the location, the language and the time of day that the blog is posted at. On the other hand, a Singaporean marketer who is looking to target B2B transactions may choose to post the information on a Singapore based microblogging site like timetables because it is more convenient for them. It's also more accessible for the user as well.

However, there are limitations of influencers in Singapore. First, the blogger or the marketer cannot just engage with his or her target market on Instagram and create a buzz because Instagram limits the number of pictures that can be shared and has a limit on the number of people that can follow a person. This makes it impossible for influencers in Singapore to effectively promote their business or brand. On the other hand, microblogs like twitter have no restrictions and allow people to update their blogs any time. This allows the entrepreneur to be updated as his or her followers grow.

On the other hand, the biggest advantage of influencers in Singapore is that they are able to reach out to a much larger market. On Instagram, you only have a few friends and followers. But if you are working with an influencer Singapore, he or she can introduce you to millions of followers. And when it comes to online marketing, it does not really matter how many friends you have. It matters how many people are interested in your business. With a microblog like twitter, you get to share what you have to say to the world with the help of 140-character words and images.

In essence, an influencer Singapore wants to promote his or her business but also to provide helpful tips to his or her followers so that they do not make the same mistakes. He or she also wants to give them tips that would help them promote their own blogs and websites as well. For this, he or she uses both microblogging sites and online marketing methods such as videos and SEO. He or she has a good grasp of SEO, which means search engine optimization, and is familiar with using twitter as a social media platform and using YouTube for video sharing.

Most influencers in Singapore are from the fashion and entertainment industry such as bloggers, and actors. Most Singaporeans who are not into the limelight also want to stay connected to their loved ones back home. So, if you want to be one of those people who are making the internet world collide with your computer screen, then better look for Singaporean influencers on microblogging sites like Instagram and YouTube.
