A typical post picks up 289 interactions against 350K followers, an engagement rate of 0.083%. Measured over 13 original posts, its engagement rate beats 67% of 21,185 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 12K times each, and 2.37% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.48% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.7 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 16:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 13 posts sampled, 85% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 39K interactions, about 203x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Gabrielle Giffords's engagement rate beats 67% 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 71% 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 0.083%, Gabrielle Giffords sits above the 25th percentile of the 212,656 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.025% to 0.146%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 212,656 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,418 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

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.

  • 85% 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.
  • 0% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
  • Its average post runs 474 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.

    It’s the honor of a lifetime to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom today.  I’ve oriented my life around public service. I’m so grateful to be recognized today by @POTUS along with my friend Senator John McCain and so many other accomplished individuals. https://t.co/sKeJ3BXhrV

    Today, I’m thinking about Christina-Taylor Green on what would be her 25th birthday. She should still be here, celebrating her day with family and friends, but she was shot and killed 15 years ago while waiting to meet me. At just nine years old, Christina-Taylor had big dreams to make the world a better place—and as a member of her student council, the only girl on her baseball team, and beloved daughter and friend, she was well on her way. Her life and her future should never have been stolen from her. I carry her memory with me always as I work to build the safer future she deserved.

    15 years ago, Mark retired from NASA but he has never stopped serving our country. He wanted to be there for me during my recovery, even if it meant retiring from a job he loved so much. @CaptMarkKelly, I’m so proud of all you’ve accomplished—not just in space, but right here on Earth. I love you endlessly 🚀

    I’m heartbroken to learn that nine people were shot early this morning in downtown Tucson. Too many lives have been changed forever because of America’s gun violence crisis, in my hometown and across the nation. Mark and I are grateful for the bravery of Tucson’s first responders as we await more information and hold all those impacted in our hearts.

    Gloria Steinem was a force of nature and a fierce champion for women’s rights and equality in America. I was lucky to know Gloria and witness firsthand her grit, courage, and unwavering commitment to a more just world for all. My heart is with her loved ones as we reflect on her outstanding legacy and carry her fight forward.

    I'm heartbroken for everyone affected by the shooting at the Bite of Seattle festival. Community events should be places where families make memories, and our kids can simply be kids—not places where people are forced to run for safety. My heart is with every person and family at the festival yesterday We can build a safer future, but only if we have the courage to act.

    I am devastated to hear about the shooting that took place this morning in my hometown of Tucson, targeting the LGBTQ+ community. Armed hate is deadly and wrong. And most importantly: it can be stopped. I am mourning today’s victims and praying for their families. https://t.co/yGuayglf0I

    I had the best time today watching a nail-biting match between two top teams in the @NWSL. Every player left it all on the field. Thanks to @GothamFC for the special invitation to my first ever NWSL game! I was honored to meet so many fans, players, coach Juan Carlos, and the incredible staff and owners. It’s true: Everyone watches women’s sports. Good luck in the playoffs, Gotham FC! And @weareangelcity , I hope you clinch a playoff spot too!

    From serving their communities in New Jersey together as EMTs to becoming the first siblings to orbit the Earth, @CaptMarkKelly and @StationCDRKelly have always spent their lives answering the call to serve something bigger than themselves. I’ve watched Mark continue that life of service, and I couldn’t be prouder of the courage, determination, and heart he brings to everything he does. Today, Mark and Scott are being inducted into the International Space Hall of Fame—a well-deserved honor for two brothers who have never stopped reaching for the stars. Congratulations to you both. And Mark, I’m so proud to call you my husband. ❤️🚀

    Today, my heart is in Las Vegas and with all the families grieving nine years since their loved ones were stolen in the attack at Route 91 Harvest music festival. All in a matter of minutes, the gunman was able to use rifles equipped with bump stocks to fire more than 1,000 bullets into the crowd. Sixty people were killed, hundreds were injured, and thousands of lives were shattered. In the face of such tragedy, Nevadans turned their pain into courage and demanded action. Their lawmakers passed critical gun safety laws, but there is still much to be done. This November, let’s elect my friend @Sandra4NV—a survivor of the 1 October shooting who will honor every victim and survivor with action as Nevada’s next lieutenant governor.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 289 interactions against 350K followers, an engagement rate of 0.083%. Measured over 13 original posts, its engagement rate beats 67% of 21,185 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 12K times each, and 2.37% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.48% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.7 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 16:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week.

What is Gabrielle Giffords's engagement rate on X?
Gabrielle Giffords (@GabbyGiffords) has an engagement rate of 0.083%, based on the median interactions across 13 original posts from the last 30 days against 349,789 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.083%, Gabrielle Giffords sits above the 25th percentile of the 212,656 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 @GabbyGiffords have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 67% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 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 @GabbyGiffords post?
Most posts go out around 16:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.7 posts per day across the measured window.
