Later’s Instagram Analytics let you monitor trends in your Instagram’s overall performance, measure weekly and monthly growth, and discover which of your posts are driving the most engagement. Plus, if you’ve designed a shoppable Instagram feed with Linkin.bio, you can track the total number of visits and clicks to your website from Instagram!
Important:
- This feature is available for Instagram business profiles only, and can only be accessed on the web, not on mobile.
- Your Instagram Analytics data will become consistent from the time you upgrade onwards. Analytics data is collected for 3 months.
- Please note that not all Analytics data will be displayed for users on Later’s free plan, including impressions, reach, and saves in the Post Performance tab. To access all of the analytics data we offer, upgrade to a paid plan and ensure that you have an Instagram Business profile connected.
