A typical post picks up 7.2K interactions against 2.9M followers, an engagement rate of 0.246%. Measured over 82 original posts, its engagement rate beats 94% of 3,758 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 178K times each, and 4.05% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.09% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 7.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 23:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 82 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 78% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 61K interactions, about 8.5x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Steve Inman's engagement rate beats 94% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,758 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 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 92% 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.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 36,521 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 107,166 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 23:00 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.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 7.2K interactions against 2.9M followers, an engagement rate of 0.246%. Measured over 82 original posts, its engagement rate beats 94% of 3,758 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 178K times each, and 4.05% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.09% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 7.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 23:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 82 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 78% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 61K interactions, about 8.5x its own typical post.
