Campaign Report Glossary

Understanding your Campaign Analytics Report is key to gauging your success and identifying areas of improvement, not to mention making it easier to shout about your amazing ROI. We’ve put this glossary together to ensure every bit is easy to digest.


  • Days old - This tells you the age of this campaign in days - have you passed any major milestones?!
  • Total posts - Just to make it crystal clear, this is the total number of posts that have been associated to this campaign.
  • Total clicks - The total number of times links in all posts in this campaign have been clicked - simple!
  • Reach - This gives the number of different people who see your posts each day. We get this number by dividing the total reach for the reported time period by the number of days in the reported time period. For Twitter, the calculation is slightly different as they don't report on reach (boo!). Instead, we estimate this by looking at how many followers the account that posted has, as well as how many people follow anyone that retweets the post.
  • Impressions - This gives the number of times per day your post has been shown on a person's screen. We get this number by dividing the total impressions for the reported time period by the number of days in the reported time period, regardless of whether or not the same person has seen it multiple times.
  • Engagement rate - This shows the level of engagement the content you've shared has generated during the campaign. We get this percentage by dividing the total number of engagements on all posts associated with the campaign by the total number of impressions and multiplying this by 100. Depending on the data provided by the social network, engagements can include Likes, Comments, Shares, Clicks and Reactions.
