Engagement
A typical post picks up 284 interactions against 379K followers, an engagement rate of 0.075%. Measured over 54 original posts, its engagement rate beats 47% of 3,899 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 12K times each, and 2.36% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.17% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 13% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 54 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 3.8K interactions, about 13x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
NESN's engagement rate beats 47% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,899 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 6 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 67% 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 20:00 UTC, and Sunday 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.

Willson Contreras on the potential return of Roman Anthony and Trevor Story tomorrow: "I think it's really important for us to get those guys back– we need them– but it's also important to recognize the work that the whole lineup has put in the last three months. I think those are tough decisions to make, I don't know what's going to happen tomorrow, but we do have to recognize the job that the guys are doing for this team. We couldn't have done what we've done without them." 🎙️ Presented by @WBMasonCo

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 284 interactions against 379K followers, an engagement rate of 0.075%. Measured over 54 original posts, its engagement rate beats 47% of 3,899 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 12K times each, and 2.36% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.17% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 13% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week.

- What is NESN's engagement rate on X?
- NESN (@NESN) has an engagement rate of 0.075%, based on the median interactions across 54 original posts from the last 30 days against 378,978 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.075%, NESN sits above the 25th percentile of the 37,856 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 @NESN have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 47% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,899 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 @NESN post?
- Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.9 posts per day across the measured window.
