A typical post picks up 97 interactions against 3.5M followers, an engagement rate of 0.003%. Measured over 391 original posts, its engagement rate beats 29% 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 47K times each, and 0.206% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.36% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 13.5 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 391 posts sampled, 8% carry an image or video and 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 86K interactions, about 889x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #nhk_news, #nhk_video, #ニュース7.

Compared with accounts its own size

NHKニュース's engagement rate beats 29% 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 20% 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%, NHKニュース sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,521 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.012%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 36,521 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 107,166 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 09:00 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.

Ranked by total interactions across everything we have tracked for this account, which is a longer history than the 30-day window the rates above use. The multiple compares each post to this account's own median.

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 97 interactions against 3.5M followers, an engagement rate of 0.003%. Measured over 391 original posts, its engagement rate beats 29% 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 47K times each, and 0.206% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.36% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

What is NHKニュース's engagement rate on X?
NHKニュース (@nhk_news) has an engagement rate of 0.003%, based on the median interactions across 391 original posts from the last 30 days against 3,465,535 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.003%, NHKニュース sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,521 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 @nhk_news have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 29% 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 @nhk_news post?
Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 13.47 posts per day across the measured window.
