What Is Engagement Rate? Meaning, Formula and Examples

Interactions relative to followers or reach.

Definition

Interactions relative to followers or reach.

Why it matters

It indicates audience interest.

How it works

Engagement rate = engagements ÷ followers (or reach) × 100

Example

500 engagements on 10,000 followers is 5%.

Common mistake

Ignoring fake engagement.

Using it in practice

Review Engagement Rate alongside related metrics rather than in isolation, and agree definitions across your team so reports stay consistent.
