PROJECT 2: INSTAGRAM USER ANALYTICS

Project Description:

The primary objective of this project is to perform a comprehensive analysis of


Instagram user data to support marketing strategies and provide insights for
investor metrics. The tasks include identifying the oldest users, detecting inactive
users, finding the contest winner, researching popular hashtags, determining the
optimal day for ad campaigns, calculating user engagement, and identifying
potential bot accounts. These tasks aim to enhance user engagement, optimize
marketing efforts, and provide valuable insights for stakeholders.

Approach:

1. Loyal User Reward: I sorted the users by their registration dates and selected
the top five to identify the oldest users.
2. Inactive User Engagement: I identified users who have never posted any photos
by checking for users not present in the ‘Photos’ table.
3. Contest Winner Declaration: I determined the contest winner by joining the
‘Users’ and ‘Photos’ tables, then sorted by the number of likes in descending
order and selected the top entry.
4. Hashtag Research: I counted the occurrences of each hashtag and selected the
top five most commonly used hashtags.
5. Ad Campaign Launch: I grouped user registrations by the day and the highest
number of registrations to find the best day for launching ads.
6. User Engagement: I calculated the average number of posts per user and
determined the ratio of total photos to users to assess overall engagement levels.
7. Bots & Fake Accounts: I identified potential bot accounts by finding users who
liked every single photo, comparing the like counts with the total number of
photos on the platform.
Tech-Stack Used:
- I used MySQL Workbench 8.0 CE for writing and executing SQL queries.
- I used Microsoft Word for project preparation and Word to PDF Software.
- I chose MySQL Workbench for its ease of use and visualization tools.

Insights:
A) Marketing Analysis:
1) Loyal User Reward: Rewarding the most loyal users who have
been using the platform for the longest time.

• Conclusion: These are the top five oldest users on Instagram platform.

2) Inactive User Engagement: Reminding inactive users to start


posting by sending them promotional emails.
