How to Calculate Social Media Engagement Rate

Formula

Engagement Rate = (Total Engagements / Total Followers) x 100

Engagement rate tells you what percentage of your audience actively interacts with your content. It is a better measure of content quality than follower count alone. An account with 5,000 followers and 5% engagement often delivers more value than one with 100,000 followers and 0.1% engagement. Track by post to identify which content types resonate.

Example Calculation

An account with 10,000 followers receives 450 total engagements across 10 posts.

  1. 01Engagement Rate = (450 / 10,000) x 100 = 4.5%
  2. 02Avg Engagements Per Post = 450 / 10 = 45
  3. 03Engagement Rate Per Post = (45 / 10,000) x 100 = 0.45%
