What is "Net Page Follows"?
Net Page Follows is a Facebook metric that shows the net change in your page's follower count by calculating the difference between new follows and unfollows during a specific time period. This metric provides a clear picture of whether your page is growing or losing followers, making it easier to assess the effectiveness of your content strategy and engagement efforts. A positive net follows value indicates successful audience growth, while a negative value suggests that more people are unfollowing than following, which may signal content or engagement issues that need attention. This metric is particularly useful for tracking the impact of specific campaigns, content changes, or marketing initiatives on your page's growth.
Example: A fitness brand launches a new workout challenge and sees their Net Page Follows increase by +150 in the first week, indicating successful audience growth. However, the following week shows -50 net follows, prompting them to analyze their content strategy and adjust their approach.
