Getting insightful reports is quick and easy with Hootsuite Analytics. Your dashboard shows all your data for accounts across all your social networks. Plus, it allows you to create attractive and skimmable social media analytics reports to share with your team. Cue the snaps from your boss.

Your social media analytics dashboard is made up of a series of social media metrics. These are the numbers that show how many people interacted with your content and the ways they did so. Examples include the number of likes, comments, shares, saves, and views on a specific post. But there are hundreds of metrics you can (and should) measure on social media.

The right social media analytics tools can help you quickly identify what content your audience likes and doesn't like. That means you'll know how to get more attention, followers, and conversions on each post.

Hootsuite Advanced Analytics (formerly Hootsuite Impact) is a social media analytics tool you can add to your Hootsuite Business or Enterprise plan. 

While Hootsuite’s standard analytics can help you see exactly how your posts are performing on social media, Advanced Analytics gives you a deeper view into what social media content is bringing in the most money (and much more).

Advanced Analytics allows you to see your total social media spend and, in turn, your total social media ROI. Plus, it allows you to build custom metrics that are hyper-relevant to your business.

The goal of Advanced Analytics is to give you a holistic view of how you’re performing on social media — from dollar amounts to vanity metrics to web analytics. It even helps you track how many people visit your website from social media with integrations for Google Analytics and Adobe Analytics.

Here are some of the extras you get with Advanced Analytics:

  • See your total spend and total return on social media in one simple view

  • Create a customizable social ROI analysis that automatically updates

  • Build custom metrics with your own formulas relevant to your business

  • Easily export data and reports to SFTP, PDF, PPTX, CSV, and XLSX

  • Easily add Google Analytics and Adobe Analytics to your Hootsuite dashboard

  • Easily compare performance of content and campaigns

  • Create and apply custom tags on published posts based on custom rules

  • Analytics for paid ads, including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn

How often Hootsuite updates analytics varies based on the social media platform. Hootsuite pulls data from the native networks, which are only updated periodically.

Facebook metrics come from Facebook Insights, which is only updated once a day. Instagram updates its metrics every 48 hours, but it may take up to 64 hours to see the latest data in your dashboard. 

For more information, visit the help center.

Hootsuite lets you connect and monitor the performance of dozens of social media accounts. Hootsuite Professional, Team, and Business allow you to connect 10, 20, and 35 social media accounts respectively. With Hootsuite Enterprise, you can analyze up to 50 accounts.
