Social media metrics are also important to track if you rely on
social media to gain exposure, spread messages, and drive traffic
and leads. Here are a few metrics you should be
tracking
- Conversation
rate : This
one is fairly straightforward since it's based on the number of
conversations per post. On responses to Tweets, and comments on
other social networks such as Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest and
more.
- Amplification
rate: Any time a post is retweeted or re-shared, it's being
amplified. You are allowed by all of the networks to achieve this,
so think as the quantity of repins, retweets, or reshares of a
certain post.
- Applause rate:
Every social network out there has a simple way for users to show
their appreciation, also called applause. Twitter hashearts,
Facebook has likes, Google+ has plusses, and many others upvotes
and thumbs ups.
- Relative Engagement
Rates: All engagement metrics are different because based on
different social networks. However you can calculate a relative
engagement rate to help you compare results between social
networks.
