How to get an account in a certain country?

Question

Per this blog post , country level statistics are now provided through the Insights link on the pages.

Unfortunately, country-level statistics only provide data for 45 countries. Is there a way to get statistics for a specific country?

As an example, Dove has 5 specific country pages. Currently, I can get a counter for each specific page using the global_brand_like_count value , but according to the documentation, this field is leaving.

One of the pages related to the Dove country is for Switzerland, but this country is not listed in the Insights statistics for a specific country, because it is not in the top 45, but I would like to be able to count for that specific country.

Answer 1

It seems that we have one and the same problem without getting any sympathy and talk about counting regional pages (countries) related to the global page.

The global_brand_like_count metric leaves in a week or so, and I'm not sure if there is a good replacement if you do not have access to data (access to personal data) to a specific page. With this access, you can use the page_fans label.

I'm afraid you misunderstood the list of countries represented by the page_fans_country tag. Facebook’s description suggests that this metric is “Grouped Facebook location data, sorted by country, about people who like your page.” To give an example, for the Dove Switzerland regional page, you’ll be presented with a list of the best countries that liked the page, or rather, the number of users by country. In fact, there are only 9 now, but if there are people from 58 countries who like this regional page, Facebook has provided only 45 of the best. And this returns 45 countries, if there are so many.

To get your favorite life (page fans) for a regional page, one idea is to summarize all the numbers in the returned list. The only problem is that users from more than 45 countries who like this page will get the wrong amount less.
