How to read the "Views per follower" column: 100% means an average post earns as many views as the page has followers. It's a good proxy for an account's ability to reach beyond its own community.

3. What Stands Out#

Compared with September 2025, TV5MONDE posts the biggest climb in the table: 21 places gained, from 26th to 5th. Paris-Normandie, absent the previous month, enters the ranking at 36th (3,543,048 views). On efficiency, Femme Actuelle shows the best views-per-post-vs-followers ratio in the ranking (42.0%): an average post there reaches an audience well beyond its own community size.

4. Methodology#

The data comes from Nonli's social listening, which continuously tracks the public Facebook pages of French news media. The ranking covers video views on videos and Reels published between October 1 and 31, 2025. Counters are read at the end of the period; since views keep accruing after publication, small differences with later readings are normal.

In the same series, next month: November 2025 ranking. This ranking is published every month on this blog and on Nonli's LinkedIn page. To track these metrics for your own accounts and your market, get in touch.
