What is Engagement Rate?

Engagement rate is a key metric that measures how actively an influencer's audience interacts with their content. It's calculated by taking the average number of interactions (likes + comments) per post and dividing by the total number of followers.

The Formula

Engagement Rate = (Likes + Comments) / Followers × 100%

Why Does Engagement Rate Matter for Product Seeding?

When selecting influencers for product seeding campaigns, engagement rate is often more important than follower count. An influencer with 10,000 highly engaged followers will likely drive more results than one with 100,000 passive followers.

What's a Good Engagement Rate?

Poor: Below 1%

Low audience interest or fake followers

Average: 1% - 3%

Typical for larger accounts

Good: 3% - 6%

Strong audience connection

Excellent: Above 6%

Highly engaged micro-influencers

Pro tip: Micro-influencers (10K-50K followers) typically have higher engagement rates than mega-influencers, making them ideal for product seeding campaigns where authentic recommendations matter most.
