The research also revealed that sponsored Instagram posts are becoming more and more common.

One in twenty Insta users now monetise their feeds, with sponsored posts increasing by a third across the platform in the past two years.

Interestingly, HopperHQ estimates that just one in five of all sponsored posts on Instagram are marked clearly as being paid for.
