A typical post picks up 588 interactions against 605K followers, an engagement rate of 0.097%. Measured over 15 original posts, its engagement rate beats 70% 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 23K times each, and 2.59% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.76% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.5 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 47% of days. Most posts go out around 05:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 15 posts sampled, 20% carry an image or video and 60% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 5.6K interactions, about 9.5x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #russiagate, #comebackfortheages, #hookemfuckinghorns.

Compared with accounts its own size

Paul Sperry's engagement rate beats 70% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 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 74% 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 0.097%, Paul Sperry sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,956 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.024% to 0.143%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 204,956 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,894 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 05:00 UTC, and Friday 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.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it
Image or video20% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K

  • 20% 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.
  • 60% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
  • Its average post runs 193 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.

    NEW: The Secret Service got involved in the James Comey threat case after an Emerald Isle, N.C., cop notified his police chief that Comey, a guest on the island, had posted an apparent threat against President Trump, according to new court filings in the case. Comey initially refused to give SS agents his address at the beach house where he was staying in order to be interviewed. The "86 47" seashell formation was found just a few miles away.

    BREAKING: Prosecutors will argue at trial a book by James Comey shows he had a state of mind to "k*ll President Trump" thru "stochastic terrorism" (in Comey's own words) by posting an image "86 47" to his 200k Instagram followers. Comey's novel describes a podcaster who "through the wonder of the Internet" convinces his fans of "k*lling his foes." "It's where a charismatic leader jacks people up, but through the wonder of the Internet, avoids a direct connection to what comes next," Comey wrote in "FDR Drive," which came out just five days after Comey posted his seashell threat in May 2025, less than a year after two attempts on Trump's life, inclg one in which he was shot in the ear. "He knows an attack will follow his words but he closes his eyes so he can say he wasn't part of it," Comey wrote, providing more evidence of intent. "People are susceptible to [social media] messages that offer a sense of purpose through violence," Comey also wrote, and because those messages are "in your pocket reaching you constantly through your buzzing phone [i]t's an order of magnitude more effective and more dangerous."

    NEW: The passages that federal prosecutors cite from James Comey's 2025 novel "FDR Drive" are compelling in establishing "mens rea" (guilty mind), because they depict conduct that is similar to a not-so-subtle call for violence against President Trump alleged in the Comey case.

What is Paul Sperry's engagement rate on X?
Paul Sperry (@paulsperry_) has an engagement rate of 0.097%, based on the median interactions across 15 original posts from the last 30 days against 604,708 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.097%, Paul Sperry sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,956 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 @paulsperry_ have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 70% 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 @paulsperry_ post?
Most posts go out around 05:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.47 posts per day across the measured window.
