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 1.6K interactions against 1.9M followers, an engagement rate of 0.083%. Posts are seen about 61K times each, and 2.60% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.18% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.27 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 17:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 3 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 33% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 71K interactions, about 45x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #corruptahoma, #howdidkufiasaregetin, #openbordersinc. Only 3 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 37,582 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 105,409 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 17:00 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.

    2016 trend? How about *2006* trend? 20 years ago, I founded Hot Air, the first conservative Internet daily broadcast website. Self-funded. Fiercely independent. 3-minute Adobe Flash video segments taped in my basement would take all night long to render. The first Iphone wouldn't be released until 14 months after we launched. Yes, too ahead of its time. Such is my fate...
