How to calculate Instagram engagement rate

The formula

Average Engagements = (Avg Likes + Avg Comments)

Engagement Rate = (Average Engagements ÷ Followers) × 100

Example: 150 likes + 120 comments = 270
270 ÷ 500 followers × 100 = 54%

What's a good ER?

Engagement rates vary wildly by audience size, niche, and content type. Micro-influencers usually have higher rates (3-6%) than massive accounts (1-2%).

Why it matters

It proves to algorithms and brand partners that your audience actually cares about your content, rather than just scrolling past it.
