Facebook Reach Numbers (9 posts)

Topic tags: Analytics, Reach
  • Since FB announced their data errors last Friday, my per post reach #’s for a page I manage have gone through the roof. Talking 4x,5x and even 6x the reach for “nothing special” types of posts. We have doubled our all-time high for reach on a single post. Anyone else seeing this as well?

  • yes!!! i was just  going to  post  a ??? about this  …… my  blue line on  reach in  my analytics  is  very   impressive!!!  lol….and a post  yesterday  reached about 1000 more than  my  # of  fans……for me its  been   that way for several days….  even more yesterday tho…

    whats  going on?

    @michaelpingree

  • Mine has increase as well.  I am so excited about this!

  • @kim-olive do you think its  real?   that would  be  very nice….

  • my new reach   numbers    seem to  be  staying up so i  guess im thinking they are real….

    i did  read  , from  john loomis,loomer???….that  REACH  didnt  count   much  because  reach just meant  they were on  someones page for just    a moment…..but  dont we  usually  look at the whole days   posts  to our page?  i  try to….I  realize its   kind of a fuzzy  number  ..but still if my post  is  on  a fans page , that seems  good to me….i read posts at night that  came in  all thru the day….he also  said  some  dont even check their pages   on  some days…  but thats not new… 

    heres another  question….WOULD  THE new reach numbers   BE  EVEN HIGHER   WITH  TEXT ONLY?     im  not  seeing  the  big  difference   in  reach  between  text and photos  now….  this is  very confusing!!! lol

  • @michaelpingree My numbers did seem to increase. I just attributed it to our growing friend base, new content and an exciting conference. Thank you for the heads up. I’ll add a note to my monthly communications report!

  • I had a post that was “seen” by only a handful (28 or so), yet had 177 “likes” – moving in the opposite direction!

  • @janetsud wow,   thats  just  crazy,,,,  they must still be working on it…. 

  • Hi guys, I have a similar issue going on and not quite sure what to make of it. 

    On the actual post is says the post has reached 1,320, has 9 likes, 11 shares and 2 comments.

    However, when I look at the Insights, it’s saying 166 organic reached, 1,158 viral….114 people engaged, 18 link clicks, 44 other click and 65 stories created….and 57 people talking about this, with 9 likes, 11 shares and 2 comments showing here.

    The math here seems off to me? Or am I just misreading something?
