View statistics in the Instagram via Facebook

All those who are serious about promoting their Instagram Account, you need to receive analytical information to determine the effectiveness of its work. The problem is that the statistics view in Insta is implemented only for owners of business accounts, while for most ordinary users it's also interesting to know the dynamics of page development. In this publication, we will describe in as much detail as possible how to make statistics in Instagram using Facebook, and consider the most common methods for obtaining profile analytics.

Ways to view statistics in Instagram

Before proceeding to the description of how analytics are viewed, let's look at the statistics available in the Instagram.

• total number of views of your posts (all for the week) and comparison with last week's views;
• number of "unique" users who viewed your publications.

Important! The difference between the first and second index is as follows: any user of this social network can view your publication not one, but several times, and each view will be taken into account; in the second case, each user will be counted only once.

• Number of conversions on the active link specified in your business profile;
• the number of unique users who visited your company profile.

The statistics option shows data about users who have shown interest in your publications, which include: gender, age, geography, etc.

In addition to general data, statistics in the Instagram through an account on Facebook allows you to receive analytics (impressions, engagement, coverage, comments, saved, answers via the "Send message" option, etc.).

• for each publication;
• stories.

As mentioned above, the analyst is an excellent tool for monitoring the effectiveness of the page in the Instagram, which (unfortunately most users of this platform) is only available to business account owners. Next, consider how to view the statistics of your account in Instagram via a linked page in Facebook in several effective ways.

Method 1: Instagram tools

The standard method involves creating a business account in Insta.

• launch the application on your mobile device;
