How this tool works
- Built on
- Risalat's content practice model in nine areas, built from platform creator guidance (Meta, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok) and advertising disclosure rules.
- Scoring
- Each answer scores from 0 (not in place) to 4 (fully in place). An area's score is the points earned as a share of the maximum for the questions you answered; the overall score is the average of the areas. Bands: Getting started 0–39%, Building 40–69%, Strong 70–100%.
- Limitations
- Self-reported answers, not verified. The tool scores practices, not reach: good practice raises your chances but no tool can guarantee results on platforms whose algorithms change.
- Your data
- What you type stays in your browser unless you save it to a free account. We receive your name, email and summary only when you open your results.
- Sources checked
- November 2026 (checked every month)
- Team or organisation
- With a free account you can invite colleagues from each department to answer the same questions. You get a consolidated dashboard: scores by area and department, where colleagues disagree, priority gaps and an action plan. Anonymous mode hides names and groups departments with fewer than 3 responses.

Questions
Who is this assessment for?
Individual creators, communications teams and organisations that publish content on social media, from NGOs and public bodies to small businesses.
Does a high score mean more followers?
No tool can promise reach. A high score means your practice follows what usually works: a clear audience, strong openings, a steady rhythm, platform fit and learning from data.
How often should we repeat it?
Every three to six months, or after changing your strategy, team or platforms. Compare the area scores to see progress.
Can a team answer it together?
Yes. With a free account you can invite colleagues to answer the same questions and see where views differ.
