Audience Quality Score

AQS or Audience Quality Score is a dynamic and complex metric that shows the authenticity of a social media influencer's audience. It’s an indicator of Instagram audience credibility. This metric is calculated by a combination of Engagement Rate, Quality Audience, Engagement Authenticity, and the number of active followers.
