Early reading. We have captured 1 original post for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.

A typical post picks up 196 interactions against 2.6M followers, an engagement rate of 0.007%. Measured over 1 original post, its engagement rate beats 58% of 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 19K times each, and 1.04% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.727% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.
