A typical post picks up 285 interactions against 1.5M followers, an engagement rate of 0.018%. Measured over 215 original posts, its engagement rate beats 55% of 3,881 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 29K times each, and 0.984% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.88% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 8.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 63% of days. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 215 posts sampled, 77% carry an image or video and 14% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 29K interactions, about 101x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #eflisback, #plcup, #saintsfcu21s.

Compared with accounts its own size

Southampton FC's engagement rate beats 55% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,881 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 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 56% 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.

At 0.018%, Southampton FC sits above the 25th percentile of the 37,459 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.012% to 0.081%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 37,459 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 106,523 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

What is Southampton FC's engagement rate on X?
Southampton FC (@SouthamptonFC) has an engagement rate of 0.018%, based on the median interactions across 215 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,540,323 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.018%, Southampton FC sits above the 25th percentile of the 37,459 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 @SouthamptonFC have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 55% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,881 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 @SouthamptonFC post?
Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday is its busiest day, at roughly 8.87 posts per day across the measured window.
