A typical post picks up 105 interactions against 296K followers, an engagement rate of 0.035%. Measured over 25 original posts, its engagement rate beats 41% 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 2.9K times each, and 3.57% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.993% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 10% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 25 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 96% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 2.5K interactions, about 24x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Robert Spencer's engagement rate beats 41% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 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 79% 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 0.035%, Robert Spencer sits above the 25th percentile of the 213,098 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.025% to 0.147%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 213,098 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,393 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 14:00 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.

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.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it

  • 100% 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 428 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.

    Turks warn Greece not to protect their Aegean island territories or to strengthen partnership with Israel This is based on the fact that Greece was once part of the Ottoman Empire. Kalın and Erdogan are proceeding from the assumption that any land once ruled by Islam belongs by right to Islam forever, which is based on the Qur’anic command: “Drive them out from where they drove you out” (2:191). This is the same rationale that the “Palestinians” use, and witless and/or opportunistic leftists fall for it eagerly. Watch for it also in Spain. Read more at the link in the next post.

    What We Never Learned From 9/11 by Daniel Greenfield First we learned to love our killers. Then we learned to hate ourselves. After 19 Muslim terrorists killed nearly 3,000 people in the United States, the most sensible thing would have been to close the borders and keep out the people most likely to carry out attacks.

    Half of the Seven Million Muslims Now in France Claim They Might Leave the Country if Le Pen Wins by Hugh Fitzgerald It turns out that close to half of the seven million Muslims now in France claim they might leave the country if the anti-Muslim immigrant Marine Le Pen, the head of the National Rally party, who will be running in the next presidential election, manages to win. And right now, in a head-to-head contest with the communist Jean-Luc Mélenchon, head of the far-left and pro-Islam party, La France Insoumise, Le Pen would obtain 67% of the vote to his 33% — a landslide.

    Leftists and Hamas-linked CAIR enraged that son of Hamas founder said ‘I don’t want Muslims in America’ Mosab Hassan Yousef is the son of Sheikh Hassan Yousef, a cofounder of Hamas. He knows what Islam is all about, and has rejected it and embraced Christianity. The Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and Mehdi Hasan know very well that he is referring to a genuine problem when he says: “There is no room for Islam dominance, especially here in the United States.” They know that he is criticizing a supremacist, expansionist, violent ideology, not speaking out of “racism” or some irrational hatred.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 105 interactions against 296K followers, an engagement rate of 0.035%. Measured over 25 original posts, its engagement rate beats 41% 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 2.9K times each, and 3.57% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.993% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 10% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 25 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 96% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 2.5K interactions, about 24x its own typical post.

What is Robert Spencer's engagement rate on X?
Robert Spencer (@jihadwatchRS) has an engagement rate of 0.035%, based on the median interactions across 25 original posts from the last 30 days against 295,944 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.035%, Robert Spencer sits above the 25th percentile of the 213,098 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 @jihadwatchRS have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 41% 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 @jihadwatchRS post?
Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.03 posts per day across the measured window.
