Abstract

This article corresponds to an experience report and aims to present results from the Instagram analysis of the State Public Archives of the Southeast region using the Fanpage Karma tool. Methodologically, the research covers a period of six months, from November 2022 to April 2023, of analyzing the profiles of the mentioned Instagrans, using a paid version of the Fanpage Karma Analytics tool. From this instrument, different metrics are generated, in table and graphic form, including: number of followers, growth rate, absolute growth, interaction and engagement, among others. As a result, we first notice the number of categories and metrics formats that can be generated (in figure format, graphs, tables and others). Secondly, it is noteworthy that the study had an experimental nature and more than comparing the files studied, the potential of Fanpage Karma was seen for these institutions to analyze their social media, with the optimization of such resources being important.
