A typical post picks up 192 interactions against 80K followers, an engagement rate of 0.242%. Measured over 41 original posts, its engagement rate beats 64% 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 4.5K times each, and 4.25% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 5.66% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.4 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 50% of days. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 41 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 4.5K interactions, about 23x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #otd, #1930s, #history.

Compared with accounts its own size

Historygirl's engagement rate beats 64% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 6 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 81% 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 0.242%, Historygirl sits above the 50th percentile of the 205,374 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.143% to 0.678%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 205,374 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,897 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 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.

  • 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 480 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.

    Remember when Sundays were really quiet? Most shops were shut, town centres were deserted and the roads seemed almost empty. Sunday lunch, the papers, a walk or a visit to relatives, the whole country seemed to slow down for a day. Do you miss Sundays like this? Film from 1957. #SundayMemories #RememberWhen #SocialHistory

    This little girl is Adelaide Springett, one of Horace Warner’s Spitalfields Nippers, photographed around 1901 when she was eight years old. Warner pictured Adelaide in what he called “all her best clothes”, but she was barefoot. Her boots were in such a terrible state that she was too embarrassed to wear them for the photograph. Warner also photographed them and tagged them “Little Adelaide’s best and only boots.” Adelaide knew real poverty. In 1901 she and her mother were living in a Salvation Army shelter in Hanbury Street, Spitalfields. But the barefoot little girl survived those desperately hard beginnings. Adelaide lived until 1986, reaching the age of 93. Two photographs that tell an extraordinary story of childhood poverty, and survival. #EastEnd #SocialHistory #EdwardianLondon

    His crime? Stealing celery. This solemn little boy is 11-year-old James Leadbetter, photographed at Wandsworth Prison in 1873. He was sentenced to four days in prison with hard labour and a whipping for stealing celery. It wasn't his first conviction, he had previously received seven days' hard labour for stealing pears. A stark glimpse of how differently Victorian Britain treated children who fell foul of the law. #Victorian #SocialHistory #London #History

    Whitechapel, London, around 1900 The streets were crowded with costermongers, market stalls, horse-drawn carts and people living and working within a remarkably small area. Whitechapel was home to a large working-class population, including many Jewish immigrants who had arrived from Eastern Europe. Poverty and overcrowding could be severe, but this was also a bustling community of shops, workshops, markets and street traders, a side of Whitechapel often overshadowed by its association with Jack the Ripper. #Whitechapel #EastEnd #VictorianLondon #SocialHistory

    London, 5 November 1940. With the windows blown out and rubble still lying outside her bomb damaged home, Ena Squire-Brown put on her wedding dress and carried on with her big day. Ena, an international dancer known for her Dove Dance, was leaving for St George’s Church in Forest Hill to marry RAF Flying Officer J. C. Martin. One of those wonderful photographs that captures everyday life carrying on during the Blitz. #London #TheBlitz #WW2 #1940s

    King’s Road, Chelsea, 1967, when London really was swinging! Boutiques bursting with colour, mini skirts, flares, music pouring from record shops and young people determined to look different from their parents. King’s Road wasn’t just a street it was the place to be. #KingsRoad #SwingingSixties #LondonHistory

    A little glimpse of everyday Victorian life, caught on film in 1897. Passengers getting on and off a train at Bushey Station, while others stop and stare at the strange new movie camera. Filmed by early filmmaker Charles Goodwin Norton, who can actually be seen on the platform with his children. (the bearded man who points at the camera) Just ordinary people going about their day 129 years ago. #Victorian #RailwayHistory #OldLondon #History

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 192 interactions against 80K followers, an engagement rate of 0.242%. Measured over 41 original posts, its engagement rate beats 64% 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 4.5K times each, and 4.25% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 5.66% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.4 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 50% of days. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 41 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 4.5K interactions, about 23x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #otd, #1930s, #history.

What is Historygirl's engagement rate on X?
Historygirl (@janeyellene) has an engagement rate of 0.242%, based on the median interactions across 41 original posts from the last 30 days against 79,940 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.242%, Historygirl sits above the 50th percentile of the 205,374 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 @janeyellene have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 64% 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 @janeyellene post?
Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.37 posts per day across the measured window.
