A typical post picks up 4.6K interactions against 703K followers, an engagement rate of 0.651%. Measured over 16 original posts, its engagement rate beats 94% 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 162K times each, and 2.81% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 23.1% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.2 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 16 posts sampled, 94% carry an image or video, 13% are part of a thread and 6% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 83K interactions, about 18x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Brandon Herrera's engagement rate beats 94% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 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 77% 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 0.651%, Brandon Herrera sits above the 50th percentile of the 204,956 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.143% to 0.678%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 204,956 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,894 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 Thursday 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.

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.
  • 6% 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 269 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.

    Our hearts are heavy today for 19-year-old Pvt. Isabella Gonzales of Carrollton, Texas. This brave young soldier was killed Friday in Iranian missile and drone attacks on a U.S. base in Jordan. At just 19, she selflessly answered the call to defend our nation. Her courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten. Sending deepest condolences and prayers to her family, friends, and all who loved her. May God wrap you in comfort and grant her eternal peace. Thank you for your service, Isabella. You are a true hero. 🇺🇸

    Why did you delete this post @katy4congress? Embarrassed that a school teacher doesn’t know how to read the title of the book in your own photo? Just like the Big Bend fiasco I caught you in. You’re either a liar or incompetent. Both are disqualifying. https://t.co/9K1Ro0HK5W

    My opponent Katy Stout just got caught red-handed LYING about Big Bend construction. Either she’s clueless about Texas District 23, or she was just caught intentionally lying. Either way, it’s just another of many reasons she’s not qualified to lead. https://t.co/GirqIiFG7B

    Axeel Melendez was just a 24-year-old guy from Tucson trying to play Rust. Someone on the server asked if they could inspect his computer to prove he wasn’t cheating. He agreed. Shortly after, hackers gained access to his accounts, stole his personal information, and began blackmailing him. They demanded money and threatened to swat him or call immigration on his family if he refused. Melendez did the responsible thing. On April 8 he called the Pima County Sheriff’s Department and warned them about the threats. A dispatcher told him that no one could just call SWAT on him and that nothing was going to happen. Less than 48 hours later, a fake emergency call came in claiming his father had shot his sister. Deputies forced their way into his house, breaking a window with a shovel. Thinking he was being robbed, Melendez grabbed his mother’s legally owned handgun. The deputies opened fire and shot him multiple times. He is now paralyzed from the chest down. Melendez and his mother have filed a notice of claim seeking $176 million from Pima County and the Sheriff’s Department, arguing that officials ignored clear warnings that the call was a swatting attempt. He tried to do everything right. It still cost him the use of his legs.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 4.6K interactions against 703K followers, an engagement rate of 0.651%. Measured over 16 original posts, its engagement rate beats 94% 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 162K times each, and 2.81% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 23.1% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.2 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 16 posts sampled, 94% carry an image or video, 13% are part of a thread and 6% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 83K interactions, about 18x its own typical post.

What is Brandon Herrera's engagement rate on X?
Brandon Herrera (@TheAKGuy) has an engagement rate of 0.651%, based on the median interactions across 16 original posts from the last 30 days against 702,792 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.651%, Brandon Herrera sits above the 50th percentile of the 204,956 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 @TheAKGuy have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 94% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the top 10% for its size group.

It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @TheAKGuy post?
Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.23 posts per day across the measured window.
