Social Media Metrics Dashboards

Is there a (simple) tool out there that I can stick in social profiles in (Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn.etc) and get graphs or dashboards outputted based on relevant data (number of followers, impressions, comments/engagement).

    Uh makes me sad, but this was the original vision for DashMetrics (http://www.dashmetrics.io) before the founder decided to pivot.

    Would have solved your problem 100% 😕

      What happened with that? It says it's for sale.

        Sent you a DM on twitter 😀

    Hey Rosie! This seems like my time to comment 🤓What you've described matches the problem exactly which I'm trying to solve with my project SocialTracker. The tool allows you to easily analyze any social media profile's performance (it doesn't have to be yours).

    Here's an example of IndieHackers's Instagram dashboard: https://socialtracker.io/instagram/indie_hackers/

    I'm interested to hear what you're looking to use such a tool for? Are there any specific features that would be helpful to you?

      I'd like a long term via of 'growth' stats per brand, so if it were for IH, I'd love an overview of:

      • Twitter
      • Instagram
      • LinkedIn page
      • YouTube
      • Facebook page

      It feels like there are other tools out there that do this, but they also include a bunch of other stuff within, making it more than I want to deal with (and pay for).

      I have't done much research on this tbh, would love to support an indie hacker if possible.

        Thanks for explaining, Rosie. So you're looking for one dashboard which combines all data from across different social media networks for one brand? That's an interesting idea!

        Funnily enough, wanting an overview of social media growth of my previous project was the reason why I started SocialTracker. The social media tooling market is very saturated, but as you mentioned a lot of tools include a wide variety of functionality resulting in a price that is too high for an indie hacker or small business to pay. (E.g. Buffer offers analytics, but their plans start at $35/mo)

        I'm currently focussing more on the influencer marketing use-case rather than the 'own brand' analytics though. I found existing tools too expensive as well, but I figured that it might not be the best idea to build a tool for people who don't want to spend money on it 😬

        Anyways, SocialTracker is still in a very early phase so if you have any additional feedback or features you might like I'd love to hear them!

      Waooh.. What a nice product.

        Thanks for the praise 🙌

        I'm interested to hear what your use-case is for a social media analytics app? Are there any specific features you're looking for?

          I wish I could have like a side by side comparison between instagram and twitter metrics for each handle.

          For example, show performance of one post overtime on the same page in instagram and on the other side twitter.
