Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 3 original posts for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.
A typical post picks up 10 interactions against 94K followers, an engagement rate of 0.011%. Posts are seen about 3.4K times each, and 0.29% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.65% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.8 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 33% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 3 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video, 33% are part of a thread and 33% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 18 interactions, about 1.8x its own typical post. Only 3 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 13:00 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.

- What is ALX Africa's engagement rate on X?
- ALX Africa (@alx_africa) has an engagement rate of 0.011%, based on the median interactions across 3 original posts from the last 30 days against 94,484 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.011%, ALX Africa sits above the 10th 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.
