Most consulted metrics

These are the most frequently consulted metrics:

Average Reach/Post: Average number of people who have been reached with our posts.

On Instagram, the Average reach/day is the average of the reach generated by the profile + all the publications (posts, reels, and stories), and the Average reach/post only refers to posts. You can calculate the total reach by adding the reach of all the posts or by multiplying the average reach by the posts published in the period. Remember that the total reach can appear distorted if the same person has viewed multiple posts as it won't be unique.

Impressions are about posts, so the same account can show more than one post to the same user, It will count as 1 people reached and 1, 2 or more Impressions. On Instagram, the Impressions in the Profile section includes the Impressions generated by the profile (including all posts), and the Impressions in the Posts section is only for posts.
