# Instagram Reach Forecasting

This repository contains code for forecasting Instagram reach using historical data and a SARIMA model. The project includes both a Python script for analysis and model training.

## Repository Structure
instagram-reach-forecasting/

├── data/
│ └── Instagram-Reach.csv # Your dataset
├── scripts/
│ ├── forecast_reach.py # Python script
│ └── forecast_reach.ipynb # Jupyter notebook
├── .gitignore # Git ignore file
├── LICENSE # License file (optional)
└── README.md # README file with instructions

## Usage
You can choose between the Python script (`forecast_reach.py`) and the Jupyter notebook (`forecast_reach.ipynb`), both containing identical code for running the forecasting analysis.The Jupyter notebook (`forecast_reach.ipynb`) offers a step-by-step approach with detailed explanations and visualizations, making it suitable for users who prefer an interactive and exploratory workflow.

## Setup Instructions

### Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following installed:
- Python 3.6 or higher
- pip (Python package installer)
- Jupyter Notebook (for running the notebook file)

### Installation

1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/your-username/instagram-reach-forecasting.git
cd instagram-reach-forecasting
```

2. Install the required Python packages:
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

### Running the Python Script

1. Ensure your dataset (`Instagram-Reach.csv`) is in the `data` directory.
2. Run the script:
```bash
python scripts/forecast_reach.py
```

### Running the Jupyter Notebook

1. Ensure your dataset (`Instagram-Reach.csv`) is in the `data` directory.
2. Open the Jupyter Notebook:
```bash
jupyter notebook scripts/forecast_reach.ipynb
```

3. Run the cells in the notebook to perform the analysis and train the model.

## Project Description

This project performs the following steps:
1. **Data Import and Preprocessing**: Loading the dataset and checking for missing values, column information, and descriptive statistics.
2. **Data Analysis and Visualization**: Analyzing trends, distributions, and patterns in Instagram reach data using line charts, bar charts, and box plots.
3. **Feature Engineering**: Creating a day column and analyzing reach based on the days of the week.
4. **Model Training**: Training a SARIMA model to forecast Instagram reach.
5. **Forecasting**: Making predictions for future Instagram reach and visualizing the results.
6. **Saving and Loading the Model**: Saving the trained model and loading it for future use.

## Example Output

Below is an example of the forecasted Instagram reach for the next 30 days:
