9NEWS Denver engagement report
@9NEWS - 565K followers on X
Measured over 40 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 26, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 10 interactions against 565K followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 40 original posts, its engagement rate beats 15% of 3,809 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 5.8K times each, and 0.18% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.03% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.3 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 10% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 40 posts sampled, 8% carry an image or video and 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 97 interactions, about 9.7x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
9NEWS Denver's engagement rate beats 15% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,809 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 8 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 15% 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 15:00 UTC, and Tuesday 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.

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 10 interactions against 565K followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 40 original posts, its engagement rate beats 15% of 3,809 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 5.8K times each, and 0.18% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.03% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.3 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 10% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 40 posts sampled, 8% carry an image or video and 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 97 interactions, about 9.7x its own typical post.
- What is 9NEWS Denver's engagement rate on X?
- 9NEWS Denver (@9NEWS) has an engagement rate of 0.002%, based on the median interactions across 40 original posts from the last 30 days against 564,863 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.002%, 9NEWS Denver sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,960 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 @9NEWS have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 15% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,809 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size 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 @9NEWS post?
- Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.33 posts per day across the measured window.
