Instagram Engagement Rate Checker

What is the Instagram Engagement Rate Checker?

The Instagram Engagement Rate Checker is a free tool that works out the engagement rate of any public Instagram account from its posts. Paste one to ten post or Reel links, and it works out each post's likes and comments against the account's followers, then grades the average rate against the typical range for an account that size.

How to use the Instagram Engagement Rate Checker

1. Copy the links of one to ten public posts or Reels from the same account. Post, Reel and profile-style links such as instagram.com/name/p/... all work.
2. Paste them into Post links, one per line.
3. Press Check engagement.
4. Read the average engagement rate by followers, its grade from Low to High, and the typical range for an account this size beneath it.
5. Check Post by post for each link's likes, comments and rate, to see which posts pulled the average up or down.

How do I check the engagement rate of any Instagram account?

Open the account, copy the links of a few recent posts or Reels, and paste them here. The checker works from the post links you paste, so it suits a competitor, a creator you might hire and your own account alike.

For each post the rate is (likes + comments) ÷ followers × 100, and the headline figure is the average of those posts. Ten recent posts give a fairer picture than one, because a single post that took off can make an account look far more engaged than it usually is.

What is a good engagement rate on Instagram by follower count?

It depends on account size, because smaller audiences interact more per follower. Typical ranges the checker grades against include 3.16% to 3.85% under 5K followers, 0.49% to 0.65% from 10K to 50K, 0.35% to 0.46% from 100K to 500K, and 0.45% to 0.57% at 1M and over. Every result shows the typical range for that account's size.

A rate inside the range grades Average. Above it is Good, and well above it is High: under 5K followers, Good starts above 3.85% and High above 6.16%. Below the range is Low.

Why check engagement before working with an influencer?

Followers can be bought, so a large follower count on its own says little about who is paying attention. An account of 50K followers averaging 100 likes and comments a post (0.2%, Low) gets fewer interactions than one of 15K averaging 150 (1.0%, Good).

Paste the creator's last ten posts, not their pinned ones, and compare the rate with two or three accounts of a similar size in the same niche. The Post by post table shows whether the average is steady or rests on one standout post.
