1. Facebook Pages Now Ranked by Local Fans

As you can see in the report below, we are ranking Facebook brands and media by their number of local fans. They are still accompanied by the number of their total fan base but now you can also see the volume of local fans Liking the Page in the selected country. It´s also expressed by a percentage from the total fan base so you can see the bigger picture.

One of the most important sections of the Regional Reports, Average Post Engagement Rate, now shows not only the country’s ben­chmark, but also the change in Engagement Rate from the previous month. That way you can see whether there was an increase or decline in the brand’s performance in the previous 30 days.

3. Top content posted in your country

Reports methodology: Data in local reports reflect the brands’ results as of the last day in the particular month which they were generated. Engagement Rates and other metrics take into consideration the interactions that users created between the 1st and 28th of February 2013. If users like, comment or share a post beyond these dates, the interactions are not reflected in the metrics. That means that fan numbers as well as metrics from the local reports may slightly differ to the numbers users can currently see in Socialbakers Analytics.

Cancer Research UK shared a photo
26th February 2013 Cancer Research UK

Four years ago, as she approached her first birthday, Georgia was diagnosed with a rare kidney cancer called Wilms’ tumour. After nearly a year of gruelling treatment including months of chemotherapy, surgery and a life-threatening infection during her treatment, Georgia received the thumbs up from her doctors as her parents were told the great news she was in remission. While just 59 per cent of children survived Wilms’ tumour in the early 1970s, 95 per cent now survive. Thanks to your support, our scientists and doctors played a key role in improving treatments for Wilms’ tumour. But there’s still so much more to do for this and other childhood cancers. With your help, we can and will do more to ensure as many children as possible survive cancer. Please share this post with your friends and family.
