A typical post picks up 30 interactions against 196K followers, an engagement rate of 0.015%. Measured over 60 original posts, its engagement rate beats 28% of 20,444 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 2.9K times each, and 1.01% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.50% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 60 posts sampled, 87% carry an image or video and 17% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 296 interactions, about 9.9x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Alain Berset's engagement rate beats 28% 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 43% 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 0.015%, Alain Berset sits above the 10th percentile of the 204,956 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.024%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 204,956 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,894 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 12:00 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.

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.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it

  • 87% 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.
  • 17% 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 397 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.

    Dear Ukrainians, 35 years ago, you restored your independence. You have defended it every single day. The Council of Europe is with you - in this war, for justice, into peace on your own terms. Justice, accountability, and support for Ukraine are at the heart of the Council of Europe's work. A comprehensive compensation mechanism and the Special Tribunal move forward as the new Action Plan on democratic security for 2027-2030 is taking shape.

    The new strikes on Ukraine show the folly of a world order in rupture. No one is a bystander. How many more precious Ukrainian lives must be lost? The Council of Europe will continue to side with law and justice, with one goal: peace for Ukraine. @ZelenskyyUa @andrii_sybiha

    Today, Kyiv was again hit by a devastating Russian attack, causing further loss of life and suffering. Justice must prevail. Our Register of Damage, @RD4U_claims, has now received over 170,000 claims arising from Russia’s aggression—and more are submitted every day. @ZelenskyyUa @andrii_sybiha

    This morning, I had the pleasure of meeting @AlinejadMasih, @martapardavi and Nasrin Sotoudeh, the candidates for this year’s Václav Havel Human Rights Prize. Each has shown extraordinary courage in standing up for fundamental freedoms, often at great personal cost. The Council of Europe is proud to recognise those who put themselves on the line to defend human rights.

    No negotiation can trade away the people of the occupied territories. Their rights, their suffering, their future belong at the heart of any peace process. The Council of Europe is building the tools to turn accountability for Ukraine into reality: The Register of Damage. The International Claims Commission. The Special Tribunal for the Crime of Aggression. At today’s Summit of the International Crimea Platform, I called on our partners to join these efforts, ratify the relevant agreements and provide the resources they need. @ZelenskyyUa @andrii_sybiha

    An important discussion today with the European Parliament’s Special Committee on the European Democracy Shield. The Pact and the Shield work together. Both protect democracy against threats such as foreign interference, disinformation and attacks on elections. Democratic resilience and European security are increasingly inseparable. The Pact stems from people, not just institutions – from what they need to trust democracy again. @Europarl_EN @EP_Democracy

    Honoured to welcome to Strasbourg members of the Ukrainian @PACE_News delegation and representatives of @ua_parliament. Accountability for Russia’s aggression against Ukraine remains a top priority for the Council of Europe. Thank you for your presence and your engagement. As Ukrainians continue to withstand Russia’s brutal attacks, we will continue to work tirelessly to support Ukraine and lay the foundations for a sustainable peace. @verkhovna_rada @tochytskyi

    Without shared facts, there can be no democracy. At the Council of Europe Observatory on History Teaching conference, I spoke about why defending historical truth also means defending our democratic future. We cannot afford to have short memories. There is too much at stake. Full speech: https://t.co/3KgqiFCpxP

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 30 interactions against 196K followers, an engagement rate of 0.015%. Measured over 60 original posts, its engagement rate beats 28% of 20,444 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 2.9K times each, and 1.01% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.50% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 60 posts sampled, 87% carry an image or video and 17% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 296 interactions, about 9.9x its own typical post.

What is Alain Berset's engagement rate on X?
Alain Berset (@alain_berset) has an engagement rate of 0.015%, based on the median interactions across 60 original posts from the last 30 days against 196,064 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.015%, Alain Berset sits above the 10th percentile of the 204,956 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 @alain_berset have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 28% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 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 @alain_berset post?
Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.27 posts per day across the measured window.
