When you open your analytics, you&#8217;ll notice that two terms stand out: &#8220;<em>impression<\/em>&#8221; and &#8220;<em>reach<\/em>.&#8221; You can see that <em>reach<\/em> and <em>impression<\/em> are two different things, but you don&#8217;t fully understand what the difference is.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">What exactly is the difference between <em>&#8220;reach<\/em>&#8221; and &#8220;<em>impression<\/em>&#8220;? Which more to pay attention to?

What <em>Facebook<\/em> calls &#8220;<em>impression<\/em>&#8221; Twitter has called &#8220;<em><em>reach<\/em>&#8220;, for example. Essentially, they represent two concepts.<\/em>  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><em>Reach<\/em> refers to the total number of people who have seen your ad or post.

This means that the number of impressions is &#8211; 300.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Let&#8217;s take a look at how the major platforms define these 2 terms, to understand how each metric works.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589873020778{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><strong>Facebook reach vs impressions<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333;\"><em> <\/em><span style=\"color: #fd6600;\"><a style=\"color: #fd6600;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/business\/help\/710746785663278\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facebook&#8217;s definition<\/span> of<\/a><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333;\"> <em> reach<\/em> as: The number of people who have seen your ad at least once. <em>Reach<\/em> is the total number of unique users who have seen your post\/ad. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Reach<\/em> is divided into three categories: Branch, Paid, and Viral.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><b>Organic <em>reach<\/em><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> refers to the number of unique people who have seen your post organically (for free) on <em>the Facebook News Feed<\/em>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><b>Paid <em>Reach<\/em><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">  This is the number of people on <em>Facebook<\/em> who have seen a post that has been paid for.

To answer this question, <em>Facebook<\/em> shares impressions in <\/span> <\/span><span style=\"color: #fd6600;\"><a style=\"color: #fd6600;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/business\/news\/viewed-impressions#\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two categories<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333;\">: &#8221;served&#8221; and &#8221;viewed&#8221;.<\/span><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589886565563{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">When an advertisement is &#8220;served&#8221;, it means that the advertisement was simply paid for and that the system decided to deliver the advertisement somewhere (at the top of someone&#8217;s <em>News Feed<\/em>, in the advertising box on the side, etc&#8230;)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">&#8220;Served&#8221; ads do not have to appear on the screen (they can remain &#8220;under the fold&#8221;, as <em>Facebook<\/em> calls it).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">The &#8220;viewed&#8221; impression, on the other hand, <em>counts<\/em> if the user sees the advertisement on the screen. If a user doesn&#8217;t scroll to see an ad, or moves away from the page before it loads, then the ad doesn&#8217;t count as viewed. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589872962650{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><strong>Instagram reach vs impressions<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><em>Instagram<\/em> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It treats <em>reach<\/em> and <em>impression<\/em> in the same way as <em>Facebook<\/em>. <em>Reach<\/em> refers to the total number of unique accounts that have seen your post or <em>story<\/em> on a given day. As you can see, <em>reach<\/em> is very important when it comes to <em>brand awareness<\/em>.   <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Impression<\/em> represents the total number of times your post and <em>story<\/em> have been shown to a user. As with <em>Facebook<\/em>, every impression counts as an impression to the user. (So three times the same post will be counted as three impressions.) These are the two basic metrics that you want to track when evaluating the success of your <em>Instagram<\/em> strategy.   <\/span><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589872944547{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><strong>What&#8217;s the best thing to follow?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><em>Reach<\/em> and <em>impressions<\/em> refer to two specific activities, so deciding which metric will be more important depends on what your goals are. Let&#8217;s start with why you should focus on impressions. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1584734231564{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Why focus on impressions?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">You can track impressions if you want to avoid overloading users with ads, which can lead to a counter effect. No one likes to be bothered. If you want to avoid this, it may be better to focus on <em>reach<\/em> rather than impressions.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Impressions are also useful when we want to follow advertisements in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the moment-to-moment<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">  the basics. If you run your ad and immediately get little or no impressions, it can be a sign that something is wrong with the post. <\/span><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589872924666{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><strong>Why focus on reach?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Reach <em>can also<\/em> help you see if there&#8217;s something wrong with your ad. If your ad reached a lot of people, but you didn&#8217;t get any conversions, it may mean that you should reconsider the content of your ad.   <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">If, on the other hand, your content has a large <em>reach, <\/em>it means that it is successful and that it finds its way to many new users, which means that it is more likely to be shared and interacted.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589873214151{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><strong>Why follow both reach and impression?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><em>Reach<\/em> and <em>impression<\/em> say different things about the performance of ads and content. More often than not, you&#8217;ll need to use both metrics together to discover the effectiveness of a campaign or advertisement. <\/span> <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589872887906{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><strong>Understand Your &#8221;Effective Frequency&#8221;<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Comparing impressions and reach is deceptive, because impressions will always be equal to or greater than reach. Any user who is in your reach number (eng. Reach will see your content at least once, and many will see it several times. How many times?  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">To find out, we divide the total number of impressions by the total number of impressions to get the average number of impressions per user. (Some call this &#8221;ad frequency&#8221;, or &#8221;average impressions per user&#8221;). <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">So, how much of an average impression per user is good?<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">A lot of brand awareness research suggests that users need to see an ad several times before they can start gaining brand awareness. Advertisers call this &#8220;effective frequency&#8221; &#8211; the number of times someone has seen an ad before reacting to it.   <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to General Electric&#8217;s Herbert E. Krugman, three exposures to an advertisement are enough to make someone aware of your brand. As early as 1885, London businessman Thomas Smith stated that it was necessary to   <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">twenty<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">By all accounts, the effective frequency of your business will be closely related to your industry and product. If you want to get a sense of how many impressions are reasonable, try to get some insight into how much your competition is targeting. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589872868656{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><strong>Don&#8217;t bother with commercials<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Revealing the effective frequency is also important because it tells us how many times users see an ad before it starts to annoy them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">How many impressions per user are will depend on your social media goals. If you want to slowly build brand awareness, a provocative campaign, which cannot be ignored, may not be the best way to go. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">But if you have a time-sensitive promotion and want as many people as possible to see you, a large number of impressions per user could be a good goal.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589872847266{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><strong>What&#8217;s next to Reach and Impressions?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><em>Reach<\/em> and <em>impression<\/em> can tell you a lot about what kind of results your content is getting. But it&#8217;s important to remember that they don&#8217;t tell you anything about whether someone actually clicked on or interacted with your content. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">If you want to measure your ROI on social media, and you&#8217;re focused on short- and medium-term ROI, focusing on conversion is key. At the end of the day, website traffic, generated leads, email list sign-ups, conversions, and revenue are much more concrete measures of campaign success. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">If you want to draw a line between advertising cost and ROI, pair the reach and impression metrics with conversion and revenue. Make sure you combine <em>reach<\/em> with much more specific actions, such as <em>signups<\/em> and revenue. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">One way is to divide the revenue by the total users we have reached to get the &#8220;average revenue per reached user&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">This can help you better understand how advertising costs and your efforts to increase reach result in a concrete return on investment (ROI).<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;]<span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\">Za vi\u0161e korisnih i edukativnih tekstova o digitalnom marketingu\u00a0&#8211;<\/span> <span style=\"color: #fd6600;\"><a style=\"color: #fd6600;\" href=\"https:\/\/digitizer.rs\/news-stories\/\">posetite na\u0161 blog.<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #fd6600; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\">U\u0161tedite Va\u0161e vreme i izaberite Digitizer.
