A typical post picks up 488 interactions against 628K followers, an engagement rate of 0.078%. Measured over 18 original posts, its engagement rate beats 66% of 21,185 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 74K times each, and 0.659% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 11.8% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.5 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 18 posts sampled, 56% carry an image or video and 28% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 12K interactions, about 25x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #indycar, #f1, #f3.

Compared with accounts its own size

Will Buxton's engagement rate beats 66% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 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 37% 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 0.078%, Will Buxton sits above the 25th percentile of the 212,925 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.025% to 0.146%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 212,925 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,436 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 13:00 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.

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: 13:00 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

  • 56% 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.
  • 28% 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 216 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.

    Ah Sepang. Proper circuit. F1 cars just look right there. Hope this is another one of those occasions where circumstantial necessity leads to a full time return.

    F1 race week in Malaysia. Gotta be honest, I’m properly jealous of everyone heading out there. Was always one of my absolute favourite weeks of the year. Great track, cracking race, a hugely fun time and a much missed stop on the trail.

    It’s been a day of some horrifying accidents in the racing world. A reminder of the danger the racers we stellify place themselves in, of the incredible levels car design has reached and sometimes in the unfathomable bravery that good people show to help each other @loekhartog1

Ranked by total interactions across everything we have tracked for this account, which is a longer history than the 30-day window the rates above use. The multiple compares each post to this account's own median.

Recurring topics

The most frequent hashtags in the sampled posts. They describe what this account writes about; they are not a performance signal, and the catalog-wide breakdown on the hub shows how little hashtag count moves.

Measured over 18 original posts, its engagement rate beats 66% of 21,185 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end.

What is Will Buxton's engagement rate on X?
Will Buxton (@wbuxtonofficial) has an engagement rate of 0.078%, based on the median interactions across 18 original posts from the last 30 days against 627,916 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.078%, Will Buxton sits above the 25th percentile of the 212,925 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 @wbuxtonofficial have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 66% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 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 @wbuxtonofficial post?
Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.5 posts per day across the measured window.
