A typical post picks up 464 interactions against 697K followers, an engagement rate of 0.067%. Measured over 68 original posts, its engagement rate beats 64% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 27K times each, and 1.70% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.91% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.8 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 43% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 19:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 68 posts sampled, 57% carry an image or video and 19% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 33K interactions, about 71x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Governor Newsom Press Office's engagement rate beats 64% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 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 62% 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 0.067%, Governor Newsom Press Office sits above the 25th percentile of the 205,152 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.024% to 0.143%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 205,152 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,894 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 19:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Engagement by hour posted, UTCTwenty-four bars, one per UTC hour. Each bar shows how posts published in that hour compare with their own authors' median engagement. Bars above the centre line ran higher than the median, bars below ran lower. A marker flags Busiest hour: 19:00 UTC.

Formats this account uses

Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it
Image or video57% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K

  • 57% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
  • 3% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
  • Its average post runs 249 characters, which falls in the 180 - 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 180 to 280 characters match the same accounts' other posts almost exactly.

These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

    The level of disrespect. Going after allies. We have to call it out. California is stable. Canada matters. I don’t want to see permanent damage done here. NORAD NATO Five-eyes 60,000 Canadian-born businesses in the Golden State It’s all too important to allow what Trump has done to be permanent.

    Yesterday, the Trump Administration moved to end protections for 44 million acres of national forests, opening up logging and road construction in some of our nation’s most pristine public lands.  This has been one of the most reckless administrations in American history. California will do whatever it can to protect public lands for generations to come.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 464 interactions against 697K followers, an engagement rate of 0.067%. Measured over 68 original posts, its engagement rate beats 64% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end.

That is about 3.91% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.8 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 43% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 19:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week.

What is Governor Newsom Press Office's engagement rate on X?
Governor Newsom Press Office (@GovPressOffice) has an engagement rate of 0.067%, based on the median interactions across 68 original posts from the last 30 days against 697,236 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.067%, Governor Newsom Press Office sits above the 25th percentile of the 205,152 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 @GovPressOffice have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 64% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range 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 @GovPressOffice post?
Most posts go out around 19:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.77 posts per day across the measured window.
