How engagement rate is calculated

The standard formula is (likes + comments) ÷ followers × 100. Some analysts calculate per-post rates against reach instead of followers; the follower-based version is the one most brands and benchmarks use, and it's what this calculator computes.

What's a good rate?

Across most niches: 1–3% is average, 3–6% is good, and 6%+ is excellent. Size matters — accounts under 10k followers often exceed 5%, while million-follower accounts rarely pass 2%. That's exactly why raw numbers mislead, and why Clipmetry scores every post against its own account's baseline instead of a global average.

Engagement is one number. Outliers are the strategy.

Clipmetry finds the reels in your niche that beat their account's baseline — and turns them into your content plan.
