Engagement
A typical post picks up 58 interactions against 113K followers, an engagement rate of 0.051%. Measured over 12 original posts, its engagement rate beats 40% of 19,933 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 4.0K times each, and 1.46% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.52% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.47 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 43% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 21:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 12 posts sampled, 75% carry an image or video and 17% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 18K interactions, about 308x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Gov. Henry McMaster's engagement rate beats 40% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (19,933 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 52% 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 21:00 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.

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 | 75% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 17% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | no effect | -2% to -1% | 42K |
- 75% 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 270 characters, which falls in the 180 - 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 180 to 280 characters match the same accounts' other posts almost exactly.
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.

Since July, @DarlineGrahamSC has stepped up and immediately begun working to serve the people of South Carolina. Throughout her time in the U.S. Senate, she has stood for the values that South Carolinians live by, continued Lindsey Graham's work, and stood firmly with President Trump to advance his America First agenda. I am proud to give my full endorsement to Darline Graham.

While I was proud to support Pamela Evette and grateful for her years of service to the people of South Carolina, the voters have made their decision. Pamela has been an outstanding Lieutenant Governor, and we are thankful for her leadership. I congratulate Alan Wilson on his victory tonight. He has served the people of South Carolina as Attorney General and brings years of experience to this race. Now, Republicans must unite behind our nominee and continue working to keep South Carolina strong.

- What is Gov. Henry McMaster's engagement rate on X?
- Gov. Henry McMaster (@henrymcmaster) has an engagement rate of 0.051%, based on the median interactions across 12 original posts from the last 30 days against 113,162 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.051%, Gov. Henry McMaster sits above the 25th percentile of the 201,787 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 @henrymcmaster have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 40% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (19,933 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 @henrymcmaster post?
- Most posts go out around 21:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.47 posts per day across the measured window.
