A typical post picks up 1.1K interactions against 168K followers, an engagement rate of 0.652%. Measured over 11 original posts, its engagement rate beats 87% of 15,519 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 21K times each, and 5.11% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 12.8% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.2 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 47% of days. Most posts go out around 17:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 11 posts sampled, 45% carry an image or video and 18% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 14K interactions, about 13x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #apb, #cda, #d66.

Compared with accounts its own size

Jack van Gelder's engagement rate beats 87% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (15,519 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 8 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 88% 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 0.652%, Jack van Gelder sits above the 75th percentile of the 156,396 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the top 25% band, which runs 0.604% to 2.32%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 156,396 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 26,062 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 17:00 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.

Engagement by hour posted, UTCTwenty-four bars, one per UTC hour. Each bar shows how posts published in that hour compare with their own authors' median engagement. Bars above the centre line ran higher than the median, bars below ran lower. A marker flags Busiest hour: 17:00 UTC.

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

  • 45% 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.
  • 0% 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 258 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.

    Guten Morgen zusammen, es gibt jetzt Direktflüge von Deutschland nach Syrien. Zusammengefasst können jetzt jene, die als Asylbewerber kamen und mittlerweile einen deutschen Pass haben, bequem mit Familie in Syrien Urlaub machen während man jene, die als Asylbewerber kamen und einen Flüchtlingsstatus haben oder neu hier ankommen, nicht nach Syrien abschieben kann, weil gefährlich. Macht sich die Politik darüber Gedanken, inwiefern das dem Bürger noch vermittelbar ist?

    PRO, D66 en CDA willen het Zweedse voorbeeld volgen en zoeken met massa immigratie naar nieuwe kiezers. Uiteindelijk raakt Nederland/Europa eigen identiteit in ijltempo kwijt. Willen wij dat echt? https://t.co/FuFllgn0g2

    Nadat zo ongeveer iedereen in fatsoenlijk Nederland, waaronder OM, burgemeesters, CdK’s, politie, RvS, hoogleraren, VNG het ernstig hebben afgeraden, wil de VVD gezichtsbedekkende kleding alsnog verbieden. Meedeinen op de extreem-rechtse sentimenten. Verveelt de VvD zich?

    In steeds meer landen zijn politici meer met zichzelf bezig dan met het besturen van een land. Ook het uitsluiten van democratisch gekozen politici van voor hen onwelgevallige “collega’s” is eigenlijk te gek voor woorden. Een politicus is een VOLKSVERTEGENWOORDIGER!!

    Het demasqué v minister #Letschert (OCW). De minister kreeg kamervragen over de weigering van #Tivoli Utrecht een debatwedstrijd te herbergen wegens de deelname van Israëlische studenten. Boze kamerleden vroegen o.m. hoe dit cancelen van Israëli’s zich verhoudt tot het verbod op discriminatie. Antwoord Letschert: “In dit geval is geen sprake van een verschil in behandeling bij de toegang tot een aangeboden dienst, omdat het evenement niet is doorgegaan”. Je moet maar durven! De minister gaat er glashard aan voorbij dat die ‘aangeboden dienst’ niet is doorgegaan, OMDAT Israëli’s meededen. Pure discriminatie dus. De wereld zou terecht te klein zijn geweest, als een evenement was afgezegd, omdat er LGBTQ+ personen aan meedoen. Diep triest zo’n antwoord.

    Voetbalwedstrijden meteen definitief staken als er vuurwerk wordt afgestoken. Gaat binnen een paar weken toch weer gebeuren denk ik. Maffe situatie. Probeer daders te pakken, verhaal de kosten van de staking, geef boete en jarenlang stadionverbod.

What is Jack van Gelder's engagement rate on X?
Jack van Gelder (@jackvangelder) has an engagement rate of 0.652%, based on the median interactions across 11 original posts from the last 30 days against 168,358 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.652%, Jack van Gelder sits above the 75th percentile of the 156,396 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 @jackvangelder have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 87% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (15,519 accounts), which puts it in the top 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 @jackvangelder post?
Most posts go out around 17:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.17 posts per day across the measured window.
