TubeBuddy engagement report
@TubeBuddy - 171K followers on X
Measured over 22 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 20, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 8 interactions against 171K followers, an engagement rate of 0.005%. Measured over 22 original posts, its engagement rate beats 16% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 2.4K times each, and 0.334% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.40% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.77 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 53% of days. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 22 posts sampled, 45% carry an image or video and 9% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 520 interactions, about 65x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #madeonyoutube, #youtube, #youtubegrowth.

Compared with accounts its own size
TubeBuddy's engagement rate beats 16% 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 19% 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 0.005%, TubeBuddy sits above the 10th percentile of the 205,374 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.024%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Tuesday 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 | 45% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 9% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | no effect | -2% to -1% | 42K |
- 45% 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.
- 9% 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 214 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.

You have until Feb 1, 2027 to hit 4,000 watch hours. After that it's 8,000. That's 18 months. Plenty of time... if you start now.

Two YouTube rule changes landed this week. One helps you. One doesn't. š Views got easier. A view now counts the moment your video starts playing ā no minimum watch time (across VOD, Shorts and Live.) š° Monetization got harder. YouTube is doubling the bar to join the Partner Program, effective Feb 1, 2027. New applicants will need 1,000 subs plus either 8,000 watch hours in a year or 20 million Shorts views in 90 days. Don't judge your channel by the view count this month. Track watch hours... that's the one that still decides whether you get paid. Where are you at on the 8,000 hours? š #YouTubeMonetization #ContentCreator #CreatorEconomy #TubeBuddy

OLD YouTube vs NEW YouTube Three things that flipped š š¦ Packaging: you used to write titles for the search bar. Now the title and thumbnail ARE the pitch. ā±ļø Length: you used to stretch everything to 10:00 for mid-rolls. But padding kills retention now, and retention is what you need. š Discovery: subscriber count used to be the whole game. Now most views come from Browse and Suggested, which means every upload starts cold and has to earn it on its own. The channels struggling right now are usually running an old playbook. Which one of these are you still doing? š Follow @TubeBuddy for weekly growth tips. #YouTubeTips #YouTubeGrowth #ContentCreator #YouTubeAlgorithm #CreatorEconomy #VideoMarketing #YouTubeSEO #GrowOnYouTube

15 THINGS EVERY SUCCESSFUL CHANNEL HAS IN COMMON (save this!) 1. A clear niche ā viewers know exactly what they're getting 2. Consistent upload schedule (even if it's just weekly) 3. Strong first 5 seconds ā hook before intro 4. Thumbnails with 3 words or less 5. A recognizable host energy or personality 6. Titles that promise a specific outcome 7. They reply to comments in the first hour 8. Retention-tested pacing ā no long intros 9. A signature sign-off or catchphrase 10. They study their own Analytics tab weekly 11. Repurpose long-form into shorts, not the other way around 12. They collab up, not just across 13. End screens that lead to ONE next action 14. They know their CTR benchmark and chase it 15. They never stop testing new formats This is what separates channels that plateau at 10K from channels that scale past 1M... are YOU ready to scale your channel?

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 8 interactions against 171K followers, an engagement rate of 0.005%. Measured over 22 original posts, its engagement rate beats 16% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 2.4K times each, and 0.334% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.40% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.77 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 53% of days. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 22 posts sampled, 45% carry an image or video and 9% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 520 interactions, about 65x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #madeonyoutube, #youtube, #youtubegrowth.
- What is TubeBuddy's engagement rate on X?
- TubeBuddy (@TubeBuddy) has an engagement rate of 0.005%, based on the median interactions across 22 original posts from the last 30 days against 171,243 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.005%, TubeBuddy sits above the 10th percentile of the 205,374 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 @TubeBuddy have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 16% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size 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 @TubeBuddy post?
- Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.77 posts per day across the measured window.
