YouTube Japan engagement report

Compared with accounts its own size

YouTube Japan's engagement rate beats 91% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,809 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 8 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 71% 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 0.46%, YouTube Japan sits above the 75th percentile of the 36,960 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the top 25% band, which runs 0.435% to 2.10%.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 12:00 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.

Recurring topics

The most frequent hashtags in the sampled posts. They describe what this account writes about; they are not a performance signal, and the catalog-wide breakdown on the hub shows how little hashtag count moves.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 3.0K interactions against 653K followers, an engagement rate of 0.46%. Measured over 31 original posts, its engagement rate beats 91% of 3,809 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 147K times each, and 2.05% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 22.4% 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, with activity on roughly 63% of days. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 31 posts sampled, 90% carry an image or video and 42% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 230K interactions, about 77x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #youtubemusicweekend, #youtubemusic, #released.
