@ecowas_cedeao - 203K followers on X
Measured over 47 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 8, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 8 interactions against 203K followers, an engagement rate of 0.004%. Measured over 47 original posts, its engagement rate beats 14% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 2.1K times each, and 0.382% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.03% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4.2 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 30% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 47 posts sampled, 94% carry an image or video and 66% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 61 interactions, about 7.6x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #ecowasexcellenceaward, #ecowasmedia, #africajournalism.

Compared with accounts its own size
Ecowas - Cedeao's engagement rate beats 14% 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 21% 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 0.004%, Ecowas - Cedeao sits above the 10th percentile of the 205,048 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.024%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 09:00 UTC, and Wednesday 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.

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.

Former President of the ECOWAS Commission, Dr. Mohamed Ibn Chambas, and former Commissioner for Administration and Finance, Mrs. Rahamatu Kady Saccoh, shared their experiences, lessons learned and best practices to support the new leadership in advancing regional integration, peace, stability and sustainable development, with particular emphasis on the Community’s institutional architecture and strategic priorities.

That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own.

- What is Ecowas - Cedeao's engagement rate on X?
- Ecowas - Cedeao (@ecowas_cedeao) has an engagement rate of 0.004%, based on the median interactions across 47 original posts from the last 30 days against 202,924 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.004%, Ecowas - Cedeao sits above the 10th percentile of the 205,048 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 @ecowas_cedeao have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 14% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size 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 @ecowas_cedeao post?
- Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 4.2 posts per day across the measured window.
