What Is Engagement Rate?

Engagement rate measures how actively your audience interacts with content. It is usually expressed as a percentage of engagements divided by reach, followers, impressions, or views.

Engagement Rate Formulas

$$\text{ER} = \frac{\text{Total Engagements}}{\text{Denominator}} \times 100$$

Denominator depends on metric type: reach per post, followers, impressions, video views, or daily follower count.
