When I try to add a fanpage I get an error. What does it mean?

The reason is: you have already reached fanpage limit for your price plan, or you are trying to add a fanpage, with maximum fans limit exceeded for your plan. You might also want to check, if the ULR pasted is correct.

I want to find out, how the analytics section works. What is interaction, and how is engagement rate calculated?

You can find that info in “Metrics” section in SoGreatWall application. “Metrics” is located in “Help” tab, next to “My Account”.

You can also find metrics definitions in this FAQ, “Metrics” section.

Why are some of the statistics presented on SoGreatWall different from those on Facebook insights?

There are three reasons for this difference:

- The time zone which we are calculating the data from Facebook pages sometimes differs
from the time zone used by Facebook Insights.

- Private data are the source for Facebook Insights. Public data are the source for
SoGreatWall. These data are aggregated at different time.

- Facebook Insights allows you only to see the analysis for the last month. SoGreatWall allows you to monitor historical data for a time range, specified in your pricing plan. As an addition, we give you a tool to benchmark your page against competitor pages in which you are not an administrator.

What is Power Analytics?

Power Analytics is one analytical tool used to benchmark, monitor, track and report Facebook fanpages, YouTube channels, Twitter channels or VKontakte groups in form of various visual graphs.

What is the difference between a monitored profile and an analyzed profile?

Monitored profiles are the ones which you add to GreatWall, analyzed profiles are the ones added to Power Analytics. The main difference is, that in GreatWall you can browse through actual content of fanpages or channels, in Power Analytics you can view performance visualizations of selected fanpages and channels in form of various statistical graphs.

What are the differences between SoGreatWall and YouTube analytics, VKontakte analytics, or Twitter analytics? Why some of the statistics presented in SoGreatWall may be different than in the social network's analytics?

Our analytics are based on data available publicly in the social networks' APIs, so some data available in the built-in analytics may not be available in SoGreatWall. The metrics we use are explained in more details in the Metrics section of the FAQ.
