An EdgeRank Score is a score provided by our algorithm to estimate the effect of EdgeRank on your Page’s fans. The higher your EdgeRank Score, the higher the likelihood your updates reach your fans via the news feed. Facebook’s EdgeRank is calculated for each one of your Facebook fans individually, however we are able to look at the overall average affect of each user’s EdgeRank Score with your Page. Even if we were capable to calculate an EdgeRank Score per fan, it would be more beneficial to a Facebook Page Admin to analyze the average EdgeRank Score per fan.
Our EdgeRank Score has been trusted with tens of thousands of Facebook Admins who influence hundreds of millions fans, we’re confident that our EdgeRank Score will help you optimize your attempts to increase engagement and exposure for your Page.
It is possible to have a high EdgeRank Score with a small relatively unengaged Facebook Page due to several external factors. Our EdgeRank Score is best suited for measuring performance within the newsfeed as frequent as your Page is updated. The success or failure of a Facebook campaign should be measured against predetermined goals. An EdgeRank Score can provide an indicator of how the campaign is performing in terms of visibility.
What is concidered a good to above average score number?
Great question, our current score break down is:
0 – 10 is below average
11 – 19 is average
20 – 29 is above average
30+ is excellent
Any further update on this ranking?
Thank you for the note, we’ve updated the previous comment.
As a small company just starting to address SEO issues onsite, realise that having a FB page could be beneficial is helping get new, interested visitors.
But, reading your post would indicate that you need a certain number of fans or friends before any acitivity undertaken will make a contribution and that Edgerank Checker is not accurate if you have below a certain number of fans as a guide to how well you are doing on Facebook.
What would be a minimum target fan base to work towards to get any meaningfull figures or guidance using Edgerank Checker?
EdgeRank Checker is valuable & accurate for any size Facebook Page. Our tools such as the Recommendation Engine and Best/Worst Metrics still provide value as you build your new Facebook Page.
Facebook Pages that typically have less than 100 fans tend receive less benefit from an EdgeRank Score perspective. Due mathematical tendencies at a low sample size.
Hope that helps!
Chad, what is the highest possible score with Edgerank? According to the Edgerank site 20+ is considered excellent. I recently read an article by someone who has 141 which seems pretty high if 20 is excellent. Any idea what percentage of pages would score over 100 on Edgerank?
Often small Pages will result in abnormally high scores due to a small sample size. As the ranking indicates, anything over 20 is an excellent score. How many fans does this Page have?
With 3700 fans, we engage them 1-3 times per day and I was wondering what a good edgerank number was for these number of fans? THANKS!
20+ would be good.
Getting an EdgeRank 61. Is that good enough?
That’s a great score!
I find it difficult to benchmark the score against anything! Is it not something out of 100??
Thank you for sorting out the “score” questions. I’m enjoying your free service and hope to get my page into the triple digit territory soon!
Our facebook page got 147 score. Is it a good one?
That’s very high, it sounds like you may have a relatively small fan base?
Hiya,
I engage my fans three times a day and my edge rank score is only 10, i have 1.4 million users – is this low score normal for many fans ?
A 10 is actually pretty good for the size of your Page!
Chad,
Pages with a small base can have abnormaly high edgerank scores. How many fans are we talking about?
Bjorn
It really depends, but it’s often less than 250.
Hello,
Thanks for this service you are providing. It is very interesting to learn more about Facebook metrics.
However, I have not undestand the relationship between the edge rank score x the size of the fan base.
Is there any post about this question?
I would be really grateful for some enlightment here!
Regards,
Lorena
We typically see larger Pages receive lower EdgeRank Scores. This is not something that we are assigning to larger pages, it is a trend that we’ve noticed. This is most likely due to fan acquisition methods and user behavior, as opposed to a specific penalty imposed by Facebook.
I have 680 fans on my page, but an EdgeRank of 13, I’m pretty disappointed with that! What can I do to engage people more? I’m already producing unique, valuable content that is relevant to my market.
We’ve built EdgeRank Checker Pro to specifically address those issues. It’s all about optimizing for engagement while decreasing any Negative Feedback.
Is the edgerank score for a particular day due to the success of the postings on that particular day or due to the sucesss of the posts of the day before?
We typically see variations due to two main components. Success of that day’s particular content, and how noisy the news feed was (your competitor’s success). You can think of EdgeRank Scores sort of like credit scores, if that helps a bit. Does that answer your question?
I have a small fan base of just under 250 likes and received a score of 123 which I thought was pretty good. At 5:30pm yesterday I noticed that one of my posts was viewed by over 9100 people and shared 100 times. When I checked the post at 7pm, it said that it had only been viewed by 2050 people. It has been shared by 170 people now so I find that hard to believe. I thought it might have been due to a low Edgerank score…but now that doesn’t seem to be the case. Any thoughts?
I don’t quite understand your question. Can you restate it?
Is there some table for edgerank score – what is normal in what is excelent (for varius fan sizes?.

Our breakdown is relative, therefore you can compare it against any sized page. However, in general we see as a page gets larger, they tend to struggle more with EdgeRank Scores. Hope that helps!
