The hardest part is figuring out where to start, but utilizing the powerful tool of Instagram Analytics you can gain valuable insight into the best times to post and what demographics are interested in your business.

Whether you have an existing account or are just setting up Instagram Analytics will change your approach to Social Media Marketing. The first step to begin tracking this data is to set your profile as a business account, this enables the option for Analytics as well as providing on page buttons for calling and website links. The Analytics tool provides you with your total impressions, profile views, website clicks, and reach. Impressions refer to how many times your posts have been seen, while Reach means the number of unique accounts that have seen any of your posts.

Along with the numerical data regarding your account, you can also view data on the type of people viewing your account.
