Before you start
- Reach must be connected (Zernio integration). See Reach overview for connection setup.
- You’ll need the LinkedIn company URLs of the pages you want to track (the
https://www.linkedin.com/company/<slug>form).
Add competitors
Open Reach → Competitors
Open Reach in the side panel, then click Competitors. The first visit shows an empty state with an Add competitor prompt.
Paste a LinkedIn company URL
The Add competitor form takes a single LinkedIn company URL. Paste it and click Add competitor. Spark validates the URL, registers the page, and starts collecting the first snapshot in the background.
Read the competitor list
Once you have one or more competitors registered, the page shows:- Competitor card grid. One card per competitor showing Posts (90d), Likes (90d), Comments (90d), and week-over-week engagement change.
- Comparison chart. A multi-line chart of weekly engagement across the last 90 days. Your LinkedIn page is plotted alongside every competitor on the same axis, so you can read relative performance at a glance.
Per-competitor deep dive
Click any competitor card to open the deep-dive page at/reach/competitors/<pageId>. The deep dive shows:
- KPI strip. Four 90-day metrics: Posts, Avg likes per post, Avg comments per post, and Top engagement.
- Posting cadence chart. How many posts the page publishes each week.
- Engagement trend chart. Weekly engagement for that page in isolation.

- All posts table. Paginated full list of posts collected in the window.
Refresh cadence
Spark refreshes competitor data daily at 06:00 UTC. New competitors get a 90-day backfill on first add. Expect the first snapshot to land within an hour.Remove a competitor
Open Manage competitors from the Competitors page header. Each row has a remove action. Confirming removes the page and its historical data from the comparison chart immediately.Related
