Without the competitive analysis you are unable to objectively evaluate your performance and know where a a Page to another Page
you are on a spectrum with your competitors. On top of this, it is crucial to be able to optimize, and therefore
continually improve your performance over time.
Benchmarking is not only the best practice for measuring performance, it’s one of the most powerful features
in Socialbakers Analytics.
Multi-Comparisons
The other type is the multi-comparison which lets you compare the performance of up to 10 different profiles
or labels - custom groupings against our full set of advanced metrics – simultaneously.
The central benefit of this feature: you can have a quick competitive overview of your most important KPIs and
several of the most important Pages side by side and in one place. You can see what Pages are performing best,
which are lackluster, and which Pages are performing over or below the average for a selected group of Pages.
Those KPIs are grouped into 4 key areas:
1 You can select Pages / Profiles / Channels and then click the compare button at the top of the page. 2 The second way is to choose a Page, Profile or Channel and then click the Compare button at the top
right corner of the page. Here you can choose whether to compare to another Page, Label or Benchmark
of your choosing.
For the metrics, which can be broken down into components, like interactions, the number of posts, responded vs.

unresponded fan questions and others, evolution charts are also available in the form of stacked column charts (2).
The platform allows you to look at the data visualized and aggregated for particular time periods, per hour, day,
day of the week, week, or month (3). Below these graphs you will see the maximum, minimum and average
of the metric for the chosen time aggregation (4).
This will help you easily spot averages, peak times for Interactions, posted questions by users, and other metrics,
and their evolution over time – month by month or week by week. These are especially useful while running
comparisons, because you can see where a page is excelling or under-performing.Finally each graph
is downloadable (5).
