Helpful context
Which engagement-rate formula should I use?
Use engagement by followers for public profile comparisons. Use engagement by reach when evaluating your own content because it measures interactions among people who actually saw it.
Should saves and shares be included?
Yes when you have access to Insights. Saves and shares often indicate stronger content value than likes alone.
Does a high engagement rate guarantee growth?
No. Engagement rate is one signal. Reach, watch time, profile visits, follows and business outcomes also matter.
