What is the difference between Unique Reach and Total Reach?

Event Walls Social Media Digital Signage Social Media Hubs

On the Stats page (and in a few other places in your dashboard), you’ll see two numbers for Reach: Total Reach and Unique Reach. Here’s what they mean:

How Reach is Calculated

  • Reach is based on the number of followers a user has.
  • Some networks (like SMS and Web Forms) don’t provide follower counts. For those sources, we report a Reach of 0.

Total Reach vs. Unique Reach

  • Total Reach → Counts followers every time a user posts.
  • Unique Reach → Counts each follower once per day, no matter how many times they post.

Example

If a user has 1,000 followers and sends 3 posts in one day:

  • Total Reach = 3,000 (1,000 × 3 posts)
  • Unique Reach = 1,000 (counted once for the day)

Note: Some platforms may also refer to Total Reach as Impressions or Absolute Reach.
