A typical post picks up 66 interactions against 3.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 547 original posts, its engagement rate beats 25% of 3,847 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 7.2K times each, and 0.915% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.236% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 18.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 04:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 547 posts sampled, 96% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 25K interactions, about 373x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #sunnews, #watch, #newsupdate.

Compared with accounts its own size

Sun News's engagement rate beats 25% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,847 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 54% 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 0.002%, Sun News sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,320 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 37,320 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 106,750 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 04:00 UTC, and Tuesday 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.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 66 interactions against 3.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 547 original posts, its engagement rate beats 25% of 3,847 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 7.2K times each, and 0.915% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.236% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 18.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 04:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 547 posts sampled, 96% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 25K interactions, about 373x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #sunnews, #watch, #newsupdate.

What is Sun News's engagement rate on X?
Sun News (@sunnewstamil) has an engagement rate of 0.002%, based on the median interactions across 547 original posts from the last 30 days against 3,052,674 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.002%, Sun News sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,320 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 @sunnewstamil have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 25% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,847 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 @sunnewstamil post?
Most posts go out around 04:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 18.67 posts per day across the measured window.
