Measuring Media ImpressionsMore about Media Impressions
Having a business account on social media allows you to gather content performance analytics. A key content performance metric is Media Impressions, which measures the number of times your media is viewed on screen. This is different from Media Reach, which is the count of unique accounts that have viewed your content.
Media Impressions can help you achieve increased brand awareness through social media. Working on increasing your impressions through relevant and trending hashtags, interaction with followers, and strategically timed posts can make a large impact on your success on social media. The more Media Impressions you gather, the higher will be the possibility that Impressions convert to engagement.
