X (Twitter) stats and metrics refer to the quantitative data and statistics that provide insights into the performance and engagement levels of a Twitter account. These metrics are important for evaluating the effectiveness of Boston University's presence on the platform and understanding its reach and impact.
1) Total Number of Followers: an Indicator of Popularity of a University
The total number of followers indicates the size of the audience that Boston University can potentially reach through its X (Twitter) account. A higher number of followers often signifies a larger and more engaged community, which can be a strong indicator of Boston University's popularity and influence in the online space.
2) Total Number of Posts: an Indicator of X Page Activity
The total number of posts (formerly tweets) reflects how active Boston University is on X (Twitter). If there are very few posts, it may suggest that the page is either inactive or that Boston University's social media representatives are not placing significant emphasis on this particular channel. Regular and consistent tweeting is key to maintaining an active and engaging presence.
3) Date of Latest Post: an Indicator of recent X Page Activity
The date of the latest post provides relevant information about the recent activity of Boston University's X (Twitter) page. A recent post indicates an active and up-to-date presence. Conversely, if the latest post is significantly old, it may suggest that the Twitter page has been inactive or potentially abandoned for an extended period.
4) Average Monthly Posts: Correlation with Engagement Metrics
This metric quantifies how frequently Boston University's social media representatives post new content (formerly known as tweeting).
