FAQ
How is the projection calculated?
Using compound monthly growth - each month's follower count is multiplied by (1 + growth rate), so growth compounds over time just like interest on savings.
How do I find my current growth rate?
Compare your follower count from one month to the next: rate = (this month - last month) / last month × 100. Most platform analytics dashboards show this directly.
Is this projection guaranteed to be accurate?
No - real growth fluctuates due to algorithm changes, viral moments, content quality, and posting consistency. This is a simplified model assuming a constant rate.
How far ahead can I project?
Up to 60 months (5 years), though projections become increasingly unreliable the further out you go, since growth rates rarely stay constant that long.
