A typical post picks up 733 interactions against 272K followers, an engagement rate of 0.27%. Measured over 9 original posts, its engagement rate beats 79% of 6,874 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 177K times each, and 0.415% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 65.0% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 17% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 9 posts sampled, 44% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 4.4K interactions, about 6.0x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Tomi Rikhotso's engagement rate beats 79% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (6,874 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 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 26% 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 0.27%, Tomi Rikhotso sits above the 50th percentile of the 66,393 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.1% to 0.499%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 66,393 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 56,924 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 Sunday 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.

  • 44% 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 285 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.

    62 undocumented foreign nationals arrested, R525,000 dagga seized in Musina operation Limpopo police have arrested 62 undocumented foreign nationals and seized dagga worth an estimated R525,000 during a multidisciplinary Operation Retshepeng operation in Musina on Friday. Police seized 11 black plastic bags containing dagga, along with two scales, a roll of sellotape and a cellphone. One woman was arrested for allegedly dealing in dagga. Two people were arrested for allegedly selling liquor without a licence, while five others were arrested for contravening the Liquor Act. Another person was arrested for allegedly contravening the Immigration Act after overstaying in the country. Two suspects were also arrested for allegedly selling expired goods. Authorities further confiscated 48 alcohol products, beverage crates, soft drinks, cleaning products, skincare and hair products, baby powder, beans and packets of instant yeast. Traffic authorities issued 21 summonses and executed 27 warrants, while two maxi-taxis were impounded for allegedly operating without valid permits. The operation involved the South African Police Service, Border Management Authority, South African National Defence Force, Department of Home Affairs, Musina Local Municipality and traffic authorities, among other law enforcement agencies. Limpopo provincial police commissioner Lieutenant General Jan Scheepers said multidisciplinary operations such as Retshepeng would continue in the Musina and Beitbridge border area to disrupt criminal activity and enforce the law. The suspects are expected to appear in the Musina Magistrate’s Court on various charges.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 733 interactions against 272K followers, an engagement rate of 0.27%. Measured over 9 original posts, its engagement rate beats 79% of 6,874 tracked accounts of a similar size.

Posts are seen about 177K times each, and 0.415% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 65.0% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.27%, Tomi Rikhotso sits above the 50th percentile of the 66,393 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.
