Will Compton engagement report
@_willcompton - 546K followers on X
Measured over 40 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 15, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 1.4K interactions against 546K followers, an engagement rate of 0.26%. Measured over 40 original posts, its engagement rate beats 85% of 20,182 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 77K times each, and 1.84% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 14.1% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 17:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 40 posts sampled, 85% carry an image or video, 5% are part of a thread and 15% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 39K interactions, about 27x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #fdpartner, #throwbackthursday.

Compared with accounts its own size
Will Compton's engagement rate beats 85% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,182 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 65% 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 17:00 UTC, and Saturday 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 | 85% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 15% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | -3% | -3% to -2% | 54K |
- 85% 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.
- 15% 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 115 characters, which falls in the 80 - 180 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 80 to 180 characters run 3% below 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.
