Measured over 18 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 19, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 70 interactions against 175K followers, an engagement rate of 0.04%. Measured over 18 original posts, its engagement rate beats 43% 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 12K times each, and 0.578% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.87% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 20% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 18 posts sampled, 50% carry an image or video and 17% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 2.8K interactions, about 41x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #colts, #colture, #dei.

Compared with accounts its own size
Dan Dakich's engagement rate beats 43% 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 29% 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.

At 0.04%, Dan Dakich sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,694 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.024% to 0.143%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 20:00 UTC, and Sunday 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 | 50% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 17% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | -3% | -3% to -2% | 54K |
- 50% 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 125 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.

Media execs must band together NOW to figure out what the hell they are going to do to save our democracy. This isn't some temporary action by Trump to get rid of @CNN @MSNOWNews @politico. Remember: @AP is still banned from the WH. He will end it for all who don't agree w/ him.

What does Sarkisian have to apologize for? Is there now a time requirement for coaches to spend answering inane questions from women immediately after a tough game? I remember looking out at reporters after a tough loss to Minnesota thinking if I explained to these crumb stained fools what actually happened in that game they would never understand it Multiple that by 100 with Holly Rowe

- What is Dan Dakich's engagement rate on X?
- Dan Dakich (@dandakich) has an engagement rate of 0.04%, based on the median interactions across 18 original posts from the last 30 days against 174,807 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.04%, Dan Dakich sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,694 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 @dandakich have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 43% 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 @dandakich post?
- Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.57 posts per day across the measured window.
