You can track and analyze performance metrics for posts published on Facebook Pages, TikTok Profiles, Pinterest Business accounts, Instagram Business accounts, and LinkedIn Pages.

Use Insights to:

Analyze content that resonates with your audience.
Strategize upcoming content.

Export performance metrics reports.

Key Considerations

We don't support metrics for Instagram Personal or LinkedIn.
X (Formerly Twitter) insights have been discontinued due to API changes.
To see Pinterest insights on Gain, make sure to transition your personal Pinterest account to a business account.

Access performance metrics by clicking on the Insights icon on the top right next to your workspace settings.

Metrics Breakdown by Social Network

Facebook Pages

Likes: Total number of "like" and "care" reactions to the content
Reactions: Total number of reactions to the content
Comments: Total number of reactions to the content
Shares: Total number of times the content was shared
Impressions: Total number of times the content entered a person's screen
Reach: Number of unique people who had the content enter their screen
Total Interactions: Sum of reactions, comments, shares, and other clicks
Other Clicks: Number of times people clicked on anywhere in the content, not including commenting, reacting, or sharing

Instagram Business Profiles

Engagement: Total number of likes and comments on the content
Reach: Number of unique people who had the content enter their screen
Saved: Total number of unique accounts that have saved the content
Video views: Total number of times the video(s) have been seen

Note: Instagram does not provide impressions for Reels—only reach and engagement. In the impressions column, Gain shows the number of views a Reel has. This way, your global Instagram metrics will remain accurate.

LinkedIn Company Pages

Clicks: Number of times the content was clicked
Comments: Total number of comments on the content
Engagement: Number of clicks, likes, comments, and shares that the comment received over its number of impressions
Impressions: Total number of times the content has been seen
Likes: Total number of likes on the content
Shares: Total number of times the content was shared
Unique impressions: Number of unique people who have seen the content

Pinterest Business Accounts

Pinterest only shows stats for Business accounts; if you'd like to see Insights data in Gain, convert your personal account to a business account on Pinterest. You'll see performance metrics only after converting the account to a business account. For example, a Pin published from a personal account might have 20 impressions. If your Pin has 5 additional views after you've switched to a business account, you'll only see the 5 impressions reflected in your Analytics dashboard.

Impressions: Total number of times the content has been seen
Call to action clicks: The number of times the call to action button was clicked on Pinterest
Saves: Total number of unique accounts that have saved the content
Reactions: Total number of reactions to the content
Comments: Total number of comments on the content

Important: Data may take up to 72 hours to appear in your Gain Insights dashboard for Pinterest. Results are often delayed up to 48 hours on our Pinterest Analytics dashboard, and the Pinterest API takes an additional 24 hours to send that data to us.

TikTok Profiles

Likes: Total number of likes on the content
Comments: Total number of comments to the content
Shares: Total number of times the content was shared
Views: Total number of times the video was viewed

Note: A dimmed Gain logo is displayed next to the content when a post is published outside of Gain.

By default, Gain provides insights for content from the past 6 months (or up to 1000 posts for Facebook).
Insights get updated every 12 hours for posts from the last 30 days.

You can customize your view by selecting specific date ranges or filtering by content tags.

Click "Showing all content" under the date range filter to filter by content tags.

You can filter by posts created in Gain or published outside of Gain and select a content tag.

Reuse or recycle your best-performing content

To reschedule top-performing posts, select posts and click on Recycle.

Select new dates and time ranges.

You'll find the recycled drafts in the calendar on the dates you selected, where you can reschedule or send them for approval.

Note: You can only recycle posts that were created in Gain.
