  • Engagement Rate: This value is calculated as ((totalLikes + totalComments + totalShares) / totalFollowers) * 100 and is displayed as a percentage with two decimal places.
  • Average Engagement Per Post: Calculated using (totalLikes + totalComments + totalShares) / totalPosts and shown as a whole number.
  • Interaction Rate: Determined by ((totalLikes + totalComments) / totalFollowers) * 100, this is presented as a percentage with two decimal points.
  • Share Rate: Calculated by (totalShares / totalFollowers) * 100 and displayed as a percentage to two decimal places.
  • Comment Rate: This metric is (totalComments / totalFollowers) * 100 and shown in percentage form with two decimal places.
