Answer

An audit reviews your profiles, content, and results to see what is working and what to change. Check your bios and links, top and weak posts, engagement trends, audience, and how you compare with peers.

Do it periodically and act on what you find. Analytics and listening tools make the data easy to gather — compare analytics tools and social listening tools.
