Abstract
<p>Within social media there are multiple strategies and methods you can use to grow your page but, in terms of content there are many variables to determine what yields the most engagement. With the Montreal Canadiens being in the 2021 Stanley Cup Final for the first time in the social-media age, this paper evaluated how the content they posted on their in-feed Instagram account @canadiensmtl from June 28, 2021, to July 8, 2021. This study aims to determine what content achieve the greatest average engagement per post, and to identify the top engaging moments during the period indicated, while using likes and comments.</p> <p>This research will test the hypothesis that game and community content will result in the highest average engagement. This will be completed by collecting data on all in-feed Instagram posts from the page, separating into categories of type of post format (photo, video, graphics, and motion graphics) and type of post content (game content, community content, sponsored, and other). Once it is determined what category, a post belongs to the sum of likes and comments were added together and divided by the number of posts in the category to determine the average engagement per post.</p> <p>The results showed for type of content; game content and community content have the highest amount of average engagement. Then for type of post format; photos were the top average engagement multimedia content. These results show us that top performing posts come from top emotional and important moments during the game, and immediately after.</p>
