A typical post picks up 116 interactions against 1.4M followers, an engagement rate of 0.008%. Measured over 56 original posts, its engagement rate beats 32% of 3,809 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 7.5K times each, and 1.54% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.543% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 6.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 57% of days. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 56 posts sampled, 21% carry an image or video, 5% are part of a thread and 82% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 26K interactions, about 222x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Paul Joseph Watson's engagement rate beats 32% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,809 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 63% 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.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 36,960 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 106,518 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

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 116 interactions against 1.4M followers, an engagement rate of 0.008%. Measured over 56 original posts, its engagement rate beats 32% of 3,809 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 7.5K times each, and 1.54% of those impressions turn into an interaction.

Posting runs at about 6.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 57% of days. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week.

What is Paul Joseph Watson's engagement rate on X?
Paul Joseph Watson (@PrisonPlanet) has an engagement rate of 0.008%, based on the median interactions across 56 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,388,335 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.008%, Paul Joseph Watson 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 @PrisonPlanet have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 32% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,809 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 @PrisonPlanet post?
Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 6.63 posts per day across the measured window.
