Compared with accounts its own size
Welsh Rugby Union ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ's engagement rate beats 26% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,899 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 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 09:00 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.

- What is Welsh Rugby Union ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ's engagement rate on X?
- Welsh Rugby Union ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ (@WelshRugbyUnion) has an engagement rate of 0.007%, based on the median interactions across 48 original posts from the last 30 days against 494,524 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.007%, Welsh Rugby Union ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,856 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 @WelshRugbyUnion have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 26% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,899 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 @WelshRugbyUnion post?
- Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.67 posts per day across the measured window.
