Engagement Rate

A metric describing the relationship between audience interactions—such as reactions, comments, saves, or shares—and reach, impressions, or follower count. The definition should be applied consistently in reports.

Why it matters

Measures whether content resonates with the audience: reactions and comments relative to reach. Reach tells you how many saw it—engagement tells you how many actually paid attention.

What's missing without it

Without engagement rate, a profile with inactive followers can look like a success—numbers grow, but impact is zero.

When it is used

When evaluating organic content and selecting creators for collaboration; use the same definition consistently.

How we use it

The social media report compares engagement rate of posts published in different formats.
