For the measurement of social media campaigns to be effective you need to have a benchmark to compare the data obtained. Depending on the objectives we can compare our progress with respect to our competitors, or with respect to the data obtained by us in previous social media campaigns.
Depending on the business objectives, KPIs to consider will be different. The KPI should sereSpecíficos, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, Temporary (SMART)
We must avail ourselves of those analysis tools that provide us with the data we need to assess any of the Social Media campaigns. In this post I am going to focus on those global KPI to achieve the objectives in a web, and not the specific KPI of each social profile that have helped achieve.

Visits Social B * = no visits during period B - Visits period A (initial period B)
(* You have to discount previous month visits)
Social Visits A = Number of visits during period A (before the initial period A)
Social Visits Increase Rate = 100 x Number of visits * Social B: No. A Social Visits

We could tune a little more, and make the media for days, since February has 3 days less, but that I leave for those more picky. ;)
If we dig deeper to see where he has been more effective the work of CM (which I recommend), break down social visits in as many profiles as we have done the work, social profile and check what have worked less to change strategies. (We enSocial Clicking on the above list of GA and us the number of visits for each social profile will appear)
