England Rugby engagement report

Measured over 29 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 1, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 45 interactions against 1.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.004%. Measured over 29 original posts, its engagement rate beats 24% of 3,882 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 30K times each, and 0.15% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.82% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 67% of days. Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 29 posts sampled, 31% carry an image or video and 10% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 12K interactions, about 269x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
England Rugby's engagement rate beats 24% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 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 12% 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 0.004%, England Rugby sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,701 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.012%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 11:00 UTC, and Friday 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 45 interactions against 1.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.004%. Measured over 29 original posts, its engagement rate beats 24% of 3,882 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 30K times each, and 0.15% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.82% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 67% of days. Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week.

- What is England Rugby's engagement rate on X?
- England Rugby (@EnglandRugby) has an engagement rate of 0.004%, based on the median interactions across 29 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,060,003 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.004%, England Rugby sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,701 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 @EnglandRugby have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 24% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 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 @EnglandRugby post?
- Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.03 posts per day across the measured window.
