Benchmarks allows you to compare your performance on Instagram against competition, set meaningful targets, and gain insight into trends on Instagram.

Benchmarks works by comparing your metrics with aggregated data from other similar accounts on Instagram. You are grouped in a cohort with other accounts with a similar following on Instagram. Benchmark data is based on your average metrics in the last 30 days (Follower Growth is based on your average monthly growth in the last 12 months).

Please note: Benchmarks use organic data only.
