ADWEEK engagement report
@Adweek - 661K followers on X
Measured over 100 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 4, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 3 interactions against 661K followers, an engagement rate of 0.001%. Measured over 100 original posts, its engagement rate beats 7% of 21,185 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 2.9K times each, and 0.102% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.444% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 100 posts sampled, 51% carry an image or video, 5% are part of a thread and 79% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 376 interactions, about 125x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #brandweek, #ai, #honeydeuce.

Compared with accounts its own size
ADWEEK's engagement rate beats 7% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 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 7% 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%, ADWEEK sits below the 10th percentile of the 212,482 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.025%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 14:00 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.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 51% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 79% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 51% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 79% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
- Its average post runs 287 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

.@tkelce is taking his career off the gridiron to new heights. The @Chiefs tight end is partnering with @Publicis_SE and 3 Arts Sports to launch TEKTA, an offering that helps brands connect with collegiate athletes for name, image, and likeness (NIL) deals across all sports. Instead of forcing brands to coordinate separately with athlete representatives, universities, conferences, and creative and production teams, TEKTA is designed to streamline the process into one operating model.

The August issue of ADWEEK Is here Creators aren’t just posting anymore, they’re building whole businesses. @MrBeast just crossed 500M @YouTube subscribers, but the bigger story is what comes after the views. Creators restructuring into parent companies, launching products and studios, and attracting real institutional capital. With brands set to spend $21B on creators in 2026, the gap between traditional publisher revenue and creator earnings is shrinking fast, and the playbook is clear: build the audience on platforms you don’t own, then build the companies you do. 📝 @MarkStenberg3 🎨 @AnaMiminoshvili

- What is ADWEEK's engagement rate on X?
- ADWEEK (@Adweek) has an engagement rate of 0.001%, based on the median interactions across 100 original posts from the last 30 days against 661,111 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.001%, ADWEEK sits below the 10th percentile of the 212,482 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 @Adweek have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 7% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts), which puts it in the bottom 10% 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 @Adweek post?
- Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.97 posts per day across the measured window.
