W Magazine engagement report
@wmag - 1.6M followers on X
Measured over 126 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 31, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 20 interactions against 1.6M followers, an engagement rate of 0.001%. Measured over 126 original posts, its engagement rate beats 20% of 3,829 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 8.6K times each, and 0.237% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.556% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4.8 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 126 posts sampled, 18% carry an image or video, 13% are part of a thread and 90% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 8.6K interactions, about 432x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #practicalmagic2, #jennie, #bridgerton.

Compared with accounts its own size
W Magazine's engagement rate beats 20% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,829 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 22% 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 0.001%, W Magazine sits below the 10th percentile of the 37,071 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.012%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 12:00 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.

“One of the best things anyone has told me is that comments, the bad and good, neither of them are true. Some people will tell you you’re the best thing in the world, and that’s not true. Some people will tell you you’re terrible, and that’s also not true.” ––Harry Styles for W's Fashion Issue

“Because I started so young, touring became so much of who I was. I would feel quite uncomfortable during stretches at home.

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 20 interactions against 1.6M followers, an engagement rate of 0.001%. Measured over 126 original posts, its engagement rate beats 20% of 3,829 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 8.6K times each, and 0.237% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.556% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

- What is W Magazine's engagement rate on X?
- W Magazine (@wmag) has an engagement rate of 0.001%, based on the median interactions across 126 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,551,873 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.001%, W Magazine sits below the 10th percentile of the 37,071 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 @wmag have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 20% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,829 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size 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 @wmag post?
- Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 4.77 posts per day across the measured window.
