Analytics worth checking

• Reach, engagement and follower growth over time.
• Which posts and formats perform best.
• Best time suggestions, treated as hints, not rules.
• Exportable reports for clients or your team.
• Competitor benchmarking, if you need it.

Native analytics inside each platform are free and often enough. Pair them with Google Analytics on your site to see which posts bring visitors.
