Engagement Rate Formula

Weighted Score = Likes + Comments×2 + Shares×3 + Saves×2
Engagement Rate = (Weighted Score ÷ Followers) × 100
Brand Value Signal = (Followers ÷ 1K) × Rate × $8

Comments, shares, and saves are weighted higher than likes because they signal stronger audience intent and are more valuable to brand partners. Saves indicate content quality and are a key Instagram algorithm signal.

Example Calculation

Post with 45K followers: 1,800 likes, 180 comments, 90 shares, 250 saves.

Score = 1800 + (180×2) + (90×3) + (250×2) = 2,930
Rate = (2,930 ÷ 45,000) × 100 = 6.51% (Excellent)
