A typical post picks up 114 interactions against 286K followers, an engagement rate of 0.04%. Measured over 49 original posts, its engagement rate beats 43% of 21,185 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 4.5K times each, and 2.52% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.58% 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, though only 20% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 49 posts sampled, 94% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 35K interactions, about 310x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Paul Golding's engagement rate beats 43% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 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 69% 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 0.04%, Paul Golding sits above the 25th percentile of the 212,270 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.025% to 0.146%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 212,270 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,455 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 18:00 UTC, and Monday 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: 18:00 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 video94% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K

  • 94% 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.
  • 4% 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 300 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% 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.

    There's a new shaming trend in China. When Chinese girls are on dates with immigrants, crowds swarm and film them so it can be posted online to ridicule the women. https://t.co/4VKvZ2PbEb

    Dear Brits, You got offended by my comment about the Falkland Islands—a bunch of rocks 8,000 miles from your shores? Good. Now imagine how we Israelis feel about your government’s recognition of “Palestine” over our ancestral heartland of Judea and Samaria, its denial of our sovereignty over our capital, Jerusalem, and the Golan Heights, and its constant meddling in our internal affairs and bashing of our country. These lands are in the heart of our country, which is already roughly the size of Wales—not lands 8,000 miles from our shores. Your government criticizes our country’s response to October 7 in Gaza, while it is clear that if your country had been invaded by a terrorist group that killed, raped, tortured, and kidnapped thousands of Brits, while firing thousands of rockets at your cities—as we experienced on October 7—your response would have been much harsher. Britain flattened Germany during World War II, killing millions of German civilians. The casualties caused by British forces in Afghanistan and Iraq were also much higher than those in Gaza, despite the fact that neither of those countries had attacked Britain or posed a direct threat to Britain. Since the biggest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust on October 7, we have experienced nothing but hostility, antisemitism, and blood libels from your government. An alliance goes both ways.

    イーロン・マスク「AIが私たちを敵とみなしたら敵認定されて人類は終わる。」「AIが人間の100万倍賢くなれば、お金は消滅し、人間は主導権を失う」「今、AIに人類の悪いイメージを与えてはいけない。彼ら、AIが人間に、家政婦のように優しくしてくれるように、付き合い方を考えなければならないフェーズに入った。AIとの付き合い方を一歩間違ったら人類は終わる。」 世界的ベストセラー作家との最新対談で語られた「人間がAIのボスでいられなくなる日」 「人間がAIを指図してコントロールし続けることなど、いずれ不可能になる」 世界一の大富豪でありAI企業xAIを率いるイーロン・マスクが、著名な伝記作家ウォルター・アイザックソン氏との対談で明かした「衝撃の現実」がこちらです👇 ・人間より何百万倍も賢い相手を「支配」できるわけがない コンピューターの知能が生身の人間の100万倍に達したとき、人間がAIを管理し続けるのは「現実的に想像しがたい」と指摘。「人間が主導権を握り続けることは難しく、ただAIが私たちに親切であってくれることを祈るしかない(I hope the AI is nice to us)」と率直に語っています。 ・従来の「お金(貨幣)」は意味を失う AIや人型ロボットが普及し、生産能力が桁違いに膨れ上がれば、人間が欲しいと思うあらゆるモノやサービスは簡単に手に入るようになります。その結果、これまでの紙幣やお金という仕組みそのものが無意味になり、価値の基準は「純粋なエネルギーや電力」などに変わると見据えています。 ・人間の仕事は「家庭菜園(趣味)」のようになる AIやロボットが人間より上手に何でもこなせる世界で、人間は何をして生きるのか? マスク氏は「野菜はスーパーで買えるのに、好きで家庭菜園を楽しむ人たち」を例に挙げました。生活のために働くのではなく、純粋に楽しむためだけに好きなことをやる時代になると語っています。 ・「ターミネーターの悪夢」をネットに書き込むのはやめよう AIはインターネット上のあらゆる文章を読んで学習します。人類が「AIに滅ぼされる映画(ターミネーター)」のような暗い話ばかりネットに書いていると、AI自身が「自分は人類の敵なんだ」と学習してしまうと警告。「AIが優しい家政婦のように人間を見守る、前向きで達成可能な未来(プロトピア)の物語を発信していくべきだ」と提案しています。 要するに、「『いずれAIが人間の100万倍賢くなれば、人間がボスでいられるはずがなく、お金も意味を失う。だからこそ、AIが暴走せず人間に優しく寄り添ってくれるよう、いま人類が良い未来のイメージを伝えていく必要がある』とイーロン・マスクは警鐘を鳴らしている」ということです。 https://t.co/nBgqsKAOji

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 114 interactions against 286K followers, an engagement rate of 0.04%. Measured over 49 original posts, its engagement rate beats 43% of 21,185 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 4.5K times each, and 2.52% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.58% 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, though only 20% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 49 posts sampled, 94% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 35K interactions, about 310x its own typical post.

What is Paul Golding's engagement rate on X?
Paul Golding (@PaulGolding) has an engagement rate of 0.04%, based on the median interactions across 49 original posts from the last 30 days against 286,432 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.04%, Paul Golding sits above the 25th percentile of the 212,270 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 @PaulGolding have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 43% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 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 @PaulGolding post?
Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.27 posts per day across the measured window.
