Content Insights
Analyze performance by content type and format to understand what resonates with your audience.
Content Insights breaks down your organic performance by what you posted — not just when — so you can see which content types and formats consistently drive the most engagement.
Open Organic Social, then Analyze, then Content to see this view.
Content Type Breakdown
The report includes the following content types:
| Content type | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Images | Single image posts |
| Carousels | Multi-image posts (swipeable) |
| Videos | Standard video posts, not Reels |
| Reels | Short-form vertical video |
| Text-only | Posts without any media |
| Stories | Facebook and Instagram Stories |
For each content type, you'll see:
- Posts per day
- Total engagement
- Avg engagement per post
- Total impressions
- Avg impressions per post
- Avg engagement rate per post
Use these metrics to identify which formats consistently perform best with your audience.
Best Times to Post
Content Insights also analyzes when your audience is most engaged with your content. The Post Timing report highlights the days and times that have historically generated the strongest performance based on engagement and impressions.
Hashtags
The Hashtags report shows how hashtags have performed across your published content.
For each hashtag, you can review:
- Total count
- Total engagement
- Average engagement per post
- Total impressions
- Average impressions per post
- Average engagement rate
Use this data to identify hashtags that consistently drive stronger engagement and reach.
Reading the data
The numbers above are most useful when you treat them as prompts. As you read the report, ask:
- Timing: do the top-performing posts cluster around a particular time of day or day of week?
- Format: is one content type consistently ahead on engagement rate, not just raw reach?
- Platform fit: is a format winning on one platform and lagging on another?
Then apply your findings to your next round of content.
Memories
The Memories tab resurfaces content you have already published so you can celebrate milestones and get more mileage out of the posts that worked.
- On this day groups your past posts by year, so you can see what you published on this date one, two, or more years ago.
- Surprise me serves a fresh selection of past content each day, giving you a low-effort way to rediscover older posts worth revisiting.
- Repurpose turns any memory into a new organic draft in one click. The original caption carries over into a fresh draft you can edit, reschedule, and publish.
Use Memories to mark anniversaries, revisit seasonal content, and keep your calendar full without starting from scratch.
