Measured over 139 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 1, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 69 interactions against 2.8M followers, an engagement rate of 0.003%. Measured over 139 original posts, its engagement rate beats 27% of 3,739 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 8.5K times each, and 0.815% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.301% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 67% of days. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 139 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 99% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 201 interactions, about 2.9x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
WebMD's engagement rate beats 27% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,739 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 51% 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 0.003%, WebMD sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,378 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 18:00 UTC, and Monday 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.

A small handful of walnuts a day may lower your cholesterol. It may also protect against inflammation in your heart’s arteries. Walnuts are packed with omega-3s, healthy fats called monounsaturated fats, plant sterols, and fiber. The benefits come when walnuts replace bad fats, like those in chips and cookies. https://t.co/Z7xgGFrkLm

Eggs are a great package deal when it comes to eye-friendly nutrients. The zinc in an egg will help your body use the lutein and zeaxanthin from its yolk. The yellow-orange color of these compounds blocks harmful blue light from damaging your retina. They help boost the amount of protective pigment in the macula, the part of your eye that controls central vision. Find out more about foods that are good for your eyes: https://t.co/8OH90nNBFj

Vitamin B12 is a nutrient that your body doesn't make, so you have to get it from animal products, such as meats, dairy, and eggs, or from supplements. B12 is important because it keeps your nerve and blood cells healthy. The vitamin is water-soluble, meaning your body expels any excess through your pee. While B12 can be stored in your liver for up to five years, you can become deficient (lacking) in it if you don't get enough. https://t.co/c8Wkm9RwCk

Tempted to skip breakfast? Studies have found that eating breakfast may improve short-term memory and attention. Students who eat it tend to perform better than those who don’t. Foods at the top of researchers' brain-fuel list include high-fiber whole grains, dairy, and fruits. Just don't overeat; researchers also found high-calorie breakfasts appear to hinder concentration. https://t.co/vDJDfqIFSz

Did you know ? Onions, a cooking staple to add flavoring, but they also work as a prebiotic. That means they’re a source of food for probiotics, helping them to dominate in the gut and crowd out the kinds of bad bacteria that can make you sick. Both raw or cooked onions are good for the gut. https://t.co/HyZgbcAsce

Sourdough bread isn’t just trendy — its natural fermentation process may help improve digestion, increase mineral absorption, and cause a slower rise in blood sugar than many refined breads. However, since it still contains gluten, it’s not safe for people with Celiac disease. https://t.co/pZ2yUL0Ost

Your gallbladder releases bile each time you eat. When you skip meals, those bile juices build up. This raises the cholesterol levels in your gallbladder. Over time, the waxy fats can harden into gallstones. Some bile acids also may make you more likely to get gallbladder cancer. So carve out time for regular meals. https://t.co/HCTpuPbIXx

If you’re not getting good sleep, your skin may soon show it. Some studies have found a link between a lack of ZZZs and acne, perhaps related to how sleep controls hormones in your body. Sleep deprivation also hurts the immune system, leaving your body open to many different issues. If you’re missing out on shut-eye, your body will soon show the signs. https://t.co/DMsgKdaRaL

- What is WebMD's engagement rate on X?
- WebMD (@WebMD) has an engagement rate of 0.003%, based on the median interactions across 139 original posts from the last 30 days against 2,816,203 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.003%, WebMD sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,378 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 @WebMD have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 27% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,739 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 @WebMD post?
- Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 4.63 posts per day across the measured window.
