Let's define Contributors
Contributors represent the total number of unique authors, creators, or outlets that generate coverage about your brand. While mentions measure how often your brand is featured, contributors show the breadth of voices behind that coverage.
How do we calculate Contributors?
Instagram Stories: The total number of unique story authors tagging your brand.
Instagram Posts: The total number of unique post authors tagging your brand.
TikTok: The total number of TikTok creators tagging your brand.
Online Media: The total number of online publications mentioning your brand.
Print Media: The total number of print publications mentioning your brand
How to interpret Contributors
Contributors reveal the diversity of your media footprint. A higher number of contributors means your brand is being amplified by a wide range of voices, which strengthens reach and credibility. Fewer contributors may mean your brand is concentrated among key partners or publications.
Why this matters for brand evaluation
Contributors are an essential metric for understanding the scale and influence of your brand’s media presence. By tracking contributors alongside mentions, reach, and impressions, you can identify who is driving your coverage, whether you are reliant on a small number of creators, or if your brand message is spreading broadly across multiple outlets.
