Example: 1,200 average engagements at CPE 0.5 puts the fair band at 420–840. This is the same formula brands use to evaluate you."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Do fewer followers mean I must charge less?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"No. Brands buy real interaction. A small account with a strong engagement rate can justify a higher engagement-based price than \"follower-count pricing\" suggests — quote with a recomputable basis."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What CPE should I apply?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"It follows your audience: practitioner/decision-maker audiences (B2B, finance, developer) justify 1+; broad entertainment audiences usually sit below 0.5. Repeat clients will calibrate it for you."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"How do I prove my numbers are real?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Analytics screenshots plus third-party scoring.
