| # AI Thread Engagement Rate Predictor Dataset |
|
|
| This dataset contains a real-world, manually collected sample of **14 threads** posted on X (formerly Twitter) under [this account](https://x.com/PulkitSahu89/status/1833014886776832314) between **September 2024 and January 2025**. |
|
|
| Despite its small size, it is an authentic dataset with real engagement metrics, making it ideal for small-scale experiments, educational purposes, and exploratory analysis of how post features influence engagement. |
|
|

|
|
| ## 📌 Purpose |
|
|
| The dataset is designed to help answer: |
|
|
| **Can we predict a thread's engagement rate based on its content, structure, and other posting attributes?** |
|
|
| **Engagement Rate** is defined by X as: |
|
|
| > The total number of times a user has interacted with a post. This includes all clicks (hashtags, links, usernames, post expansions), reposts, replies, follows, and likes. |
|

|
|
| ## 🛠️ Collection Methodology |
|
|
| - **Data Source:** |
| Metrics were collected using **X Post Analytics**, tracking user engagement, impressions, and other relevant metrics. |
| |
| - **Readability Analysis:** |
| **Grammarly's data** was used to compute the Flesch Reading Ease score and other textual analysis metrics. |

|
| ## 📊 Features Captured |
|
|
| The dataset includes the following columns: |
|
|
| | Column | Description | |
| |----------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |
| | **id** | Unique identifier for each thread | |
| | **word_count** | Total number of words in each thread | |
| | **reading_time(s)** | Estimated reading time (in seconds) | |
| | **readability_score** | Flesch Reading Ease score (higher = easier to read) | |
| | **posts_per_thread** | Number of posts within each thread | |
| | **topic_complexity** | Subjective rating of the thread’s topic complexity | |
| | **media_count** | Number of media elements (images, videos, quizzes) per thread | |
| | **posting_time** | Time when the thread was posted (in IST) | |
| | **post_frequency** | Number of posts made by the account in a week | |
| | **impressions** | Number of times the thread was viewed | |
| | **emojis** | Number of emojis used within the thread | |
| | **engagements** | Total user engagements (likes, comments, reposts, follows, etc.) | |
| |
| **CSV Header Row:** |
| id word_count reading_time(s) readability_score posts_per_thread topic_complexity media_count posting_time post_frequency impressions emojis engagements |

| |
| ## 🔄 Data Cleaning & Transformation |
| |
| - Basic data cleaning steps were applied. |
| - Consistency checks ensured no missing or corrupted values. |
| - Readability scores were normalized, numeric features standardized where necessary. |
| |

| |
| ## 📓 Additional Resources |
| |
| A **Jupyter Notebook** is available demonstrating: |
| - Exploratory data analysis (EDA) |
| - A simple neural network model built to predict engagement rate. |

|
| ## 🔍 Potential Use Cases |
|
|
| - Investigate the relationship between post characteristics (e.g., content length, readability, media usage) and engagement. |
| - Build machine learning models to predict engagement rate. |
| - Study how readability, timing, and media inclusion affect post performance. |
| - Experiment with small, real-world datasets for educational purposes. |
