How to Analyze Your Audience Demographics
Important!!
- Meta has deprecated Facebook Audience by Age and Gender data. If your account was connected before 14 March 2024, you can access insights.
The Demographics 📊 tab within your analytics dashboard displays information on your audience demographics, such as age, gender, and location, helping you tailor content to your key audience.
💡 Keep in Mind
- Audience demographics will be shown to you if your Facebook page has more than 100 Fans, otherwise no data will be shown.
- Audience Demographics data starts accumulating from the day you connect your Facebook page. as page-level data from past periods is unavailable due to Facebook API restrictions.
- Audience demographics for LinkedIn are not yet available, so the Audience tab only shows data for Facebook and Instagram.
