Rahul Shivshankar engagement report
@RShivshankar - 325K followers on X
Measured over 102 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 13, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 1.5K interactions against 325K followers, an engagement rate of 0.473%. Measured over 102 original posts, its engagement rate beats 85% of 20,444 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 37K times each, and 4.13% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 11.4% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.5 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 30% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 02:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 102 posts sampled, 82% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 34K interactions, about 22x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Rahul Shivshankar's engagement rate beats 85% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 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 83% 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.

At 0.473%, Rahul Shivshankar sits above the 50th percentile of the 205,048 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.143% to 0.678%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 02:00 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.

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.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 82% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 0% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 82% 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.
- 0% 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 431 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.

आपको सल्यूट है @DelhiPolice – इस बिगड़ैल लड़की द्वारा इतना उकसाने और बदतमीजी करने के बावजूद दोनों महिला पुलिसकर्मियों ने अपना धैर्य नहीं खोया। सोचिए, अगर इस नाबालिग की हरकतों से तंग आकर किसी पुलिसकर्मी ने इसे डांट भी दिया होता, तो अब तक सोशल मीडिया पर नाबालिग के पक्ष में नैरेटिव सेट करके पुलिस के खिलाफ बवाल मचा दिया गया होता!

THE SCHOOL DIPKE, CJP SKIPPED BECAUSE IT WASN'T IN A BJP / NDA RULED STATE. DILAPIDATED CLASSROOM. CEILING COLLAPSE. CHILDREN INJURED IN KARNATAKA. Six students were seriously injured after a portion of the ceiling collapsed during class at a government school in Mugalolli, Karnataka’s Bagalkote. Concrete fell onto the students’ benches. Iron rods were reportedly visible through the damaged ceiling, with the classroom already in a poor condition. Parents have alleged official negligence. Bagalkote DDPI Sheetharamu has ordered an inquiry, saying disciplinary action will follow if classes were held in a dilapidated room despite funds being available for repairs. WHY WERE CHILDREN IN CLASSROM WITH VISIBLE DAMAGE TO ROOF?

- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.473%, Rahul Shivshankar sits above the 50th percentile of the 205,048 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.
