Measured over 92 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 27, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 70 interactions against 948K followers, an engagement rate of 0.007%. Measured over 92 original posts, its engagement rate beats 30% of 3,791 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 14K times each, and 0.494% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.49% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 13% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 02:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 92 posts sampled, 97% carry an image or video, 5% are part of a thread and 59% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 3.3K interactions, about 47x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #wnbaseason30, #fibawwc, #usabwnt.

Compared with accounts its own size
WNBA's engagement rate beats 30% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,791 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 32% 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 0.007%, WNBA sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,654 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.012%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 02:00 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.

Ranked by total interactions across everything we have tracked for this account, which is a longer history than the 30-day window the rates above use. The multiple compares each post to this account's own median.
Recurring topics
The most frequent hashtags in the sampled posts. They describe what this account writes about; they are not a performance signal, and the catalog-wide breakdown on the hub shows how little hashtag count moves.

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 70 interactions against 948K followers, an engagement rate of 0.007%. Measured over 92 original posts, its engagement rate beats 30% of 3,791 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 14K times each, and 0.494% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.49% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 13% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 02:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 92 posts sampled, 97% carry an image or video, 5% are part of a thread and 59% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 3.3K interactions, about 47x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #wnbaseason30, #fibawwc, #usabwnt.
- What is WNBA's engagement rate on X?
- WNBA (@WNBA) has an engagement rate of 0.007%, based on the median interactions across 92 original posts from the last 30 days against 948,237 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.007%, WNBA sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,654 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 @WNBA have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 30% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,791 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 @WNBA post?
- Most posts go out around 02:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 4.03 posts per day across the measured window.
