A typical post picks up 28 interactions against 1.4M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 310 original posts, its engagement rate beats 18% of 3,848 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 12K times each, and 0.241% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.86% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 10.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 310 posts sampled, 53% carry an image or video and 93% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 13K interactions, about 470x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #breaking, #breakingnews, #live.

Compared with accounts its own size

ABC7 Eyewitness News's engagement rate beats 18% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,848 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 19% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.002%, ABC7 Eyewitness News sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,320 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.012%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 37,320 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 106,750 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

What is ABC7 Eyewitness News's engagement rate on X?
ABC7 Eyewitness News (@ABC7) has an engagement rate of 0.002%, based on the median interactions across 310 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,372,119 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.002%, ABC7 Eyewitness News sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,320 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @ABC7 have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 18% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,848 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @ABC7 post?
Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 10.57 posts per day across the measured window.
