A typical post picks up 57 interactions against 11M followers, an engagement rate of 0.001%. Measured over 276 original posts, its engagement rate beats 13% of 3,739 tracked accounts of a similar size.

That is about 0.375% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.
