Iran Observer engagement report
@IranObserver0 - 868K followers on X
Measured over 67 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 30, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 4.4K interactions against 868K followers, an engagement rate of 0.508%. Measured over 67 original posts, its engagement rate beats 93% of 3,774 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 117K times each, and 3.75% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 13.5% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 53% of days. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 67 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 27K interactions, about 6.1x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Iran Observer's engagement rate beats 93% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 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 85% 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 12:00 UTC, and Saturday 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.

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 4.4K interactions against 868K followers, an engagement rate of 0.508%. Measured over 67 original posts, its engagement rate beats 93% of 3,774 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 117K times each, and 3.75% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 13.5% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 53% of days. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 67 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 27K interactions, about 6.1x its own typical post.
