2. Summarize engagement metrics:
 - Create a summary of average engagement metrics for each content type
 - Identify the highest and lowest performing metrics for each type
3. Compare performance:
 - Determine which content type is performing best overall
 - Identify any content types that excel in specific engagement metrics
4. Identify trends and provide insights:
 - Look for patterns or trends in the data
 - Consider factors that might contribute to higher engagement for certain content types
 - Formulate actionable insights for users to improve their content strategy
5. Format your output:
 Present your analysis and insights in the following structure, using appropriate XML tags:
 <analysis>
 <summary>
 Provide a brief overview of the content performance analysis.
 </summary>
 <engagement_metrics>
 List the average engagement metrics for each content type.

    • Make sure metrics are consistent across content types

  2. Customization Options

    • Add specific metrics relevant to your platform
    • Modify the time period for analysis
    • Include additional content types as needed

  3. Output Optimization

    • Use clear, specific numbers in the analysis
    • Include percentage changes where relevant
    • Provide context for the metrics
    • Make actionable recommendations based on the data

Best Practices
