Early reading. We have captured 5 original posts for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.

A typical post picks up 65 interactions against 108K followers, an engagement rate of 0.06%. Posts are seen about 3.4K times each, and 1.89% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.18% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.73 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 43% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 03:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 5 posts sampled, 80% carry an image or video, 20% are part of a thread and 20% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 34K interactions, about 529x its own typical post. Only 5 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 205,374 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,897 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 03:00 UTC, and Sunday 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: 03:00 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 video80% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K
Outbound link20% of posts-41%-42% to -40%32K
Typical length-no effect-2% to -1%42K
  • 80% 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.
  • 20% 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 205 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.

    I’m writing something new. It’s full of typos, inconsistencies, surprises, dead ends, things that don’t make sense, and brilliance. It’s leading me and I don’t quite know what it is or where it’s taking me. It’s messy AF and I’m having a ball. This is my process.

    Africanfuturism (one word, not two) is concerned with visions of the future, is interested in technology, leaves the Earth, skews optimistic, is centered on and written by people of African descent and it is rooted first and foremost in Africa. 🌍🤖👽🚀🪐 https://t.co/d9puv6Do2H https://t.co/rVmS4ZoCaP
