Abstract

Methods and apparatus are disclosed to monitor impressions of social media messages. An example method includes receiving at a server a request for media, the request addressed to a uniform resource locator, the request corresponding to a social media message to be presented with the media, and the request including a user identifier. The method also includes crediting the social media message with an impression based on the request being addressed to the uniform resource locator. The method also includes identifying that the impression corresponds to an original intended recipient of the social media message based on the user identifier matching a second user identifier stored in a list of subscribers that subscribe to receive messages from an original sender of the social media message.
