Get to know your new insights Metrics:

new metrics in new page insights
1. Total Likes – equal to ‘Fans’ who click the ‘Like’ button above your Page.

2. Friend of Fans – Number of unique people who are friends with your fans (including the fans themselves)

3. People Talking About This – Number of people who created a story from your page posts, including those who:

Like your page
Comment, like and share your page updates
Answer your question
Respond to your page event
Mention and tag your page (including photo tagging)
Check-in
Recommend your Place page

4. Total Reach – Number of people who have seen content associated with your page (including Ads or sponsored stories about your Page), in another word, have seen your page post in the last 7 days. Total people reached per post can be found below your wall posts. This new number is usually lower than the ‘Impressions’ count because one person can see multiple impressions (=how many times a post is displayed whether it is been clicked or not).

More New Metrics: Engaged Users and Virality

When viewing your new Page Insights, you will see data about ‘Engaged Users’ and ‘Virality’. Engaged Users are people who clicked anywhere on your post. Virality on the other hand is associated with the two numbers listed below each of your wall posts – people reached and people talking about this. You can get the percentage of your post virality by dividing number of people ‘talking about this’ with people ‘reached’. Simply put, how many people saw your post from a story published by a friend.

New Page Insights still provides demographic data about fans that covers gender, age, countries, cities and language. You can discover how your fans found you and like your page from the ‘Like Sources’: Insights > Likes
