A typical post picks up 180 interactions against 1.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.017%. Measured over 76 original posts, its engagement rate beats 43% of 3,774 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 7.8K times each, and 2.30% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.742% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 43% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 76 posts sampled, 83% carry an image or video, 18% are part of a thread and 17% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 3.8K interactions, about 21x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #ilovela, #nationaldogday.

Compared with accounts its own size

PETA's engagement rate beats 43% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 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 73% 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 0.017%, PETA sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,654 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.012% to 0.08%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 36,654 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 106,977 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

What is PETA's engagement rate on X?
PETA (@peta) has an engagement rate of 0.017%, based on the median interactions across 76 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,051,570 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.017%, PETA sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,654 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 @peta have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 43% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 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 @peta post?
Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.27 posts per day across the measured window.

Keep going
