Social media analytics provider Simply Measured is now offering its customers a Facebook report that merges analytics for organic and paid posts on the social network.

Simply Measured said it is the first metrics platform to provide such a report: “Because of the intricacy and manual effort involved with stitching multiple Facebook APIs together (it takes one of our customers a day and a half each week!), most social marketers currently report on paid media separately from the rest of their fan page performance.”

As the sample chart above shows, the report gives a top-level reading of effectiveness of a brand’s Facebook ad spending, showing how much paid promotion is contributing to overall engagement, reach, impressions and new page likes.

Among the report’s other comparisons:

  • page impressions with and without paid support.
  • cost per paid impression, paid like, paid comment and paid share.
  • performance of new paid and organic posts.
  • negative feedback on paid vs. organic posts.

Simple Measured’s entry-level plan is $500 a month. Read more at Simply Measured’s blog.
