A typical post picks up 47 interactions against 2.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 52 original posts, its engagement rate beats 25% of 983 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 4.2K times each, and 1.11% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.202% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.4 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 08:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 52 posts sampled, 92% carry an image or video and 25% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 149 interactions, about 3.2x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #worldhumanitarianday, #mazar, #somalia.

Compared with accounts its own size

ICRC's engagement rate beats 25% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (983 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 8 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 58% 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%, ICRC sits above the 10th percentile of the 9,668 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.006%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 9,668 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 457,772 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 08:00 UTC, and Wednesday 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.

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

  • 92% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 79% above the same accounts' other posts.
  • 25% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 49% below the same accounts' other posts.
  • Its average post runs 288 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 12% above the same accounts' other posts.

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 Geneva Conventions, adopted 77 years ago today and ratified worldwide, are the backbone of international humanitarian law. They: 🔹 Protect those who are not or no longer fighting. 🔹 Save lives and reduce suffering. Even in armed conflicts, humanity must prevail. https://t.co/ZSi2t3Y07g

Mirjana Spoljaric, @ICRC president, and @KateForbes_IFRC, @ifrc president, have joined in a statement calling for the world to stand against the targeting of people who risk their lives to help others. "The answer cannot be to ask our colleagues to be braver. The answer must be to make it possible for them to do their jobs safely." Read more 👉🏽 https://t.co/khdg2hougP

    Following the powerful earthquake that struck Colombia today, our thoughts are with everyone affected by this emergency. Our teams in Colombia (@CICR_co) are closely monitoring the situation and remain in contact with our partners at the Colombian Red Cross (@cruzrojacol) to assess needs and support people most affected. @olivierdubs, ICRC's head of delegation in Colombia, shares 👇🏽

    When humanitarian personnel are attacked, people affected by armed conflict pay the price. On World Humanitarian Day, we call for humanitarian personnel to be protected and for safe access to reach those who need help most. Protect humanitarian personnel. Protect safe humanitarian access. #actforhumanity

    Respecting international humanitarian law can prevent suffering and save lives. All parties to conflict must respect the rules of war and do everything in their power to protect civilians and those not participating in hostilities from the devastating consequences of armed conflicts.

    Is everything allowed in wars? The answer is clear: no 🔴 Civilians must be protected. Arms bearers must at all times make the distinction between the civilian population and combatants. #IHL https://t.co/TJKuZVscUB

    📍Colombia | We express our concern about the consequences of the earthquake in areas affected by armed conflict, where communities are already especially vulnerable and access for humanitarian teams may be severely constrained. @CICR_co office in Quibdó (Chocó), as well as several Colombian Red Cross (@cruzrojacol) facilities in the areas hardest hit by the earthquake, have sustained damage. So far, we have provided medical supplies to support our partners at the Colombian Red Cross, and we stand ready to scale up our support as needed.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 47 interactions against 2.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 52 original posts, its engagement rate beats 25% of 983 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 4.2K times each, and 1.11% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.202% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.4 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 08:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 52 posts sampled, 92% carry an image or video and 25% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 149 interactions, about 3.2x its own typical post.

What is ICRC's engagement rate on X?
ICRC (@ICRC) has an engagement rate of 0.002%, based on the median interactions across 52 original posts from the last 30 days against 2,102,933 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.002%, ICRC sits above the 10th percentile of the 9,668 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 @ICRC have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 25% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (983 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 @ICRC post?
Most posts go out around 08:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.43 posts per day across the measured window.
