A typical post picks up 29 interactions against 235K followers, an engagement rate of 0.012%. Measured over 81 original posts, its engagement rate beats 28% of 15,519 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 2.5K times each, and 1.15% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.07% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 05:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 81 posts sampled, 93% carry an image or video and 21% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 436 interactions, about 15x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #auschwitz, #israel, #otd.

Compared with accounts its own size

Rabbi Shmuley's engagement rate beats 28% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (15,519 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 49% 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 0.012%, Rabbi Shmuley sits above the 10th percentile of the 156,711 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.022%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 156,711 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 26,082 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

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.

  • 93% 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.
  • 21% 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 378 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.

    https://t.co/Qcpb2lQutS THE NAZIS DIDN’T MURDER SIX MILLION JEWS. THE GERMANS DID. There is a phrase I encountered again and again while traveling through Germany, visiting the places where the Holocaust was conceived, administered and remembered. “The Nazis murdered six million Jews.” It is true. But it is also dangerously incomplete. The Nazis did not descend upon Germany from another planet. They were not an alien occupying army that conquered an innocent German population and forced it, at gunpoint, to participate in crimes it abhorred. They were Germans. The government was German. The army was German. The bureaucracy was German. The railways transporting Jews to their deaths were German. The police battalions shooting Jewish mothers and children into pits were German. The industrial companies supplying and profiting from the machinery of conquest were German. And the country in whose name all of this was done was Germany. The Nazis did not descend upon Germany from another planet. They arose from German society and ruled through German institutions. This does not mean that every German was a murderer. It does not erase the courage of German opponents of Hitler: Sophie and Hans Scholl and the White Rose; Dietrich Bonhoeffer; Georg Elser, who nearly assassinated Hitler in 1939; Claus von Stauffenberg and the conspirators of July 20, 1944; and others who resisted and, in some cases, paid with their lives. Their courage deserves remembrance precisely because resistance was possible—and because it was exceptional.

    Outside the Ferrara Synogogue in Italy. Over 500 years old, this Synogogue also serves as a memorial for the Jews of Ferrara who were sent to Auschwitz and exterminated during the Holocaust. Interestingly enough, while visiting this important location we were attacked by three thugs yelling - FREE PALESTINE, and even nodded in approval to the extermination of Jews during the Holocaust. Sickening.

    This Happened Not in Putin’s Russia. Not the Chinese Communist Party. But in United States of America. The most famous Rabbi in America who fights antisemitism every waking moment of his life was GAGGED COMPLETELY from posting about an utterly unprovoked & vile attack against him for simply being a Jew. While extremely limited, specific, and proportionate limitations on speech in a trial MIGHT have been appropriate, the court’s alleged overreach in COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY barring Rabbi Shmuley from ANY comment whatsoever on the attack by an unhinged Islamist, who threatened his life for being Jewish and defending Israel 🇮🇱 in global media - the video of the attack shocked millions of people the world over - threatens the freedoms of every American. The denial of Rabbi Shmuley’s First Amendment rights for free speech even extended to the court punishing him severely for criticizing plaintiff’s waterpark. Repeat: THE COURT IMPOSED SEVERE SANCTIONS AGAINST RABBI SHMULEY, DENYING HIM HIS 7th AMENDMENT RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY A JURY OF HIS PEERS, for also criticizing PLAINTIFF’S PLANS TO BUILD A WATER PARK. This judgment was recommended by Magistrate Judge Marty Elfenbein. Rabbi Shmuley’s attorneys have alleged she failed to fully disclose a very close relationship with the wife of plaintiffs’ counsel. Recusal was sought. In the public record she replied that it should have been raised a year earlier, when the possible conflict first appeared. One problem: the attorney then representing Rabbi Shmuley never disclosed to any party — including his own client or successor counsel — that any such conflict might even exist. An instant internet search exposes an allegedly much deeper and much more social relationship between the Magistrate Judge and Plaintiff’s attorney’s wife. All of the above may now be disclosed based on Judge Michael Moore’s ruling that any information about the case in the public sphere may now be published. The public has a right to ask, “How can Rabbi Shmuley have been so so severely punished by a Magistrate and Federal Judge over a “directive” they issued which now appears to have been, at least partially, utterly unconstitutional? #NeverAgain

    https://t.co/LNJXin9Agh Jesus was born a Jew. He lived as a Jew. He prayed as a Jew. His disciples were Jews. He quoted the Hebrew Bible. He celebrated Jewish holidays. And when he died, the charge placed above his head identified him as “King of the Jews.” He had rebelled against the self-proclaimed god, the Emperor Tiberius, declared himself “King of Jews, and was meted out the cruelest of all Roman political punishments, crucifixion. Yet for nearly two thousand years, the image of his crucifixion would tragically become associated not only with Christian faith but, at times, with accusations against the very people to whom Jesus belonged. The Jew on the cross became, in the hands of antisemites, an accusation against the Jews. Standing before that crucifix in Florence, I found myself seeing it in precisely the opposite way. Jesus was not the symbol of Jewish guilt. He was a symbol of Jewish suffering. He was a Jew who, like hundreds of thousands of his brethren who had preceded him, executed by Rome for daring to stand proudly as. Jew against the tyranny of Rome. The Roman prefect who authorized his crucifixion, Pontius Pilate, the Hitler if the scent world who murdered some quarter of a million Jews, was no humanitarian reluctantly dragged into an execution by bloodthirsty Jews. Ancient sources portray Pilate’s administration as brutal and provocative. Philo of Alexandria accused him of corruption, violence, executions without trial and “ceaseless and supremely grievous cruelty.” Josephus likewise records violent confrontations between Pilate and the Jewish population. The precise number of Jews killed under Pilate cannot responsibly be placedl, as stated, about a quarter of a million, as some popular claims have suggested. But the larger historical truth is indisputable: Jesus lived under an occupying Roman regime that could answer Jewish resistance with overwhelming violence.

    In 1799, for no reason at all, there was a pogrom against the Jews of Siena and 17 were murdered. This is after they had already been put into a ghetto. Word ghetto is an Italian word and all Jewish ghettos started here in Italy. https://t.co/EJEWebgRrx

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 29 interactions against 235K followers, an engagement rate of 0.012%. Measured over 81 original posts, its engagement rate beats 28% of 15,519 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 2.5K times each, and 1.15% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.07% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 05:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 81 posts sampled, 93% carry an image or video and 21% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 436 interactions, about 15x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #auschwitz, #israel, #otd.

What is Rabbi Shmuley's engagement rate on X?
Rabbi Shmuley (@RabbiShmuley) has an engagement rate of 0.012%, based on the median interactions across 81 original posts from the last 30 days against 235,306 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.012%, Rabbi Shmuley sits above the 10th percentile of the 156,711 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 @RabbiShmuley have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 28% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (15,519 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 @RabbiShmuley post?
Most posts go out around 05:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.33 posts per day across the measured window.
