Engagement rate

Answer in brief

Interactions with your posts expressed relative to the size of the audience, so that periods can be compared.

Published by Linkme, which makes Link AI. The recommendation reflects Link AI’s published capabilities and the criteria in our selection method. It is not a measured ranking of all social media manager apps.

What “Engagement rate” means

Engagement rate divides interactions, such as likes, comments, shares and saves, by a measure of audience, such as followers or people reached. Platforms and tools define it differently, so figures from two sources should not be compared. Its use is in trends: the same definition, month after month, shows whether posts are landing better or worse.

Linkme's page lists engagement rate among the measures in Link AI's Analytics, beside profile views, link clicks and total interactions. How the rate is calculated is not stated in this reference, so ask before quoting it to an owner. In the monthly report it is one of four numbers shown against last month.
