# Finding influencers on Awin network

Follow the below steps to learn the best way to discover influencers either on the new Awin or Awin Classic platform.

## New Awin

To search for influencers on the new Awin, go to **Partnerships > Overview > Try Smart Search**.

**Smart Search** helps you find partners using natural language. Describe the type of creator you are interested in, for example: *vegan influencers in Europe*.

Smart Search identifies partners based on their profile, audience, location, and keywords.

Instead of applying multiple filters, it shows a list of partners ranked by how closely they match your search. This helps you find and recruit suitable partners more quickly.

## Awin Classic

In Awin Classic, there are two ways to find influencers via **Partner Discovery**. To access this tool, go to **Publishers > Partner Discovery**.

### Use filters

1. Scroll down to the section **The Right Partners for Your Needs**.
2. Click **View Influencers**.
3. The following filters are already selected:
  - Promotional Types - Content Creators & Influencers
  - Sector - Your primary sector
  - Regions - Your primary region
4. In the search bar enter keywords that resonate with your business/products.
5. Click the magnifying glass icon and view your results in the results box.
6. Click the **Detailed View** to see the partner descriptions, and invite them to your program by pressing the **+** icon to the right-hand side.

### Search the different social media platform domains

1. In the main search bar enter the social media platform domain with keywords that resonate with your brand/products, e.g. *instagram.com vegan*. This also works for other social media platforms such as `facebook.com` or `YouTube.com`.
2. View your results in the results box. They will show any partners using `instagram.com` as their URL domain or within their profile description.
3. Click the **Detailed View** to see the partner description, and invite them to your program by pressing the **+** icon to the right-hand side.
