How the score works

The SocialEcho overseas social media influence score is calculated out of 100 using public data from a brand's main official overseas social media accounts over the past 30 days. Data for the same brand across platforms is aggregated and compared with similar 3C brands. Account coverage is limited to the brand's main global official account (Global/Official) on each included platform, with at most one main account per platform. Regional, country, product-line, dealer and other affiliated accounts are excluded. If a brand has no unified main global account, its main international official account is selected using the brand's website, public platform identifiers and other verifiable information. The score comprises six dimensions: audience size (15%) reflects the brand's existing audience base; follower growth (20%) combines the growth rate and net follower gains to measure audience expansion; content activity (10%) combines publishing volume and consistency to reflect content investment; content distribution (25%) combines total views and median views per post to reflect overall reach and consistent distribution; engagement performance (20%) uses like, comment and share rates to reflect audience approval, discussion and active sharing; viral potential (10%) uses the proportion of viral posts to reflect the brand's ability to consistently produce widely distributed content. Dimension scores are combined using these weights to produce the brand's final overseas social media influence score.
