Platform Context
@davidfanning ranks 292 out of 1390 for its engagement rate. This performance sits well above the tracked median of 1.19%. The 3.8% rate indicates a high level of interaction per follower compared to average accounts.
The engagement rate of 3.8% stands well above the 1.19% median, ranking the account 292 out of 1390. This performance proves that the audience reacts more than usual to the content provided. While the average of 778 likes indicates consistent passive approval, the steady flow of 30 comments per post confirms a willingness to engage in conversation. The reach reliability remains inconsistent across the recent feed. Only 8.3% of posts cleared twice the account average while another 8.3% reached five times that mark. These figures suggest that while the core community is loyal, the content does not frequently break into broader circles through consistent high-performance peaks. This indicates a stable but contained circle of interaction rather than frequent explosive growth. The audience is an active one.

Content Analysis
Hashtags, keywords, captions, and top posts
The standout post achieved a multiplier of 13.3 over the median like count for this account. It maintained a healthy ratio of nearly one comment for every seventy-four likes. This performance suggests that specific narratives can break through even with a modest engagement average. Long captions exceeding one hundred characters drive the highest engagement at 826 likes. Medium length captions under 100 characters perform poorly and yield only 610 likes. Write long copy to build deeper connections with your audience. Use #1 as a consistent signal for your primary topic. The posting cadence of roughly once every five days suggests a focus on quality over high frequency. This account maintains a steady presence rather than seeking rapid growth through volume. David Fanning has 21.3K followers and averages 778 likes per post.

Posting Patterns & Optimal Timing
When @davidfanning posts on Instagram
The content cadence for @davidfanning is a sparse high-effort pace. This creator posts much less frequently than the median of 0.7 times per week. Their low frequency places them in the bottom half of the follower rank. A consistency score of zero indicates an erratic schedule with no predictable rhythm. The gap between posts is wide and unpredictable. New content lands most often on Thursday and Friday. These uploads occur around 21:00 UTC. Marketers should expect very little new material to work with on a weekly basis. Because the posting intervals are inconsistent, it is difficult to plan time-sensitive campaigns or countdowns. You cannot rely on a regular cycle to maintain a steady presence. A partnership would require a manual, bespoke content calendar rather than a routine. The lack of regularity means you must secure long lead times for any specific activations.

Who This Audience Is
What @davidfanning's reach and engagement mean for a brand.
The follower count sits well below the typical creator average on this platform. This indicates a niche reach that does not operate at a broadcast scale. The verified status suggests a level of established authority despite the smaller volume of followers. Engagement rates are more than triple the median rate for this category. High engagement relative to the median means brand messages land harder with this specific group than they do on larger, less-active accounts. This concentration suggests that while the total reach is limited, the active interaction among those present is high. The data points toward a specialized community rather than a broad public interest. This audience fits well within the professional services or consulting categories where authority matters more than sheer volume.

Estimated Earnings
Revenue estimates based on follower count and engagement
Sponsored posts drive the primary revenue stream for @davidfanning. The estimated price band for a single post sits between $212 and $425 based on follower volume. Because this creator ranks in the bottom half of the platform, the quoted range acts as a ceiling rather than a baseline. A lower offer is often more appropriate for accounts below the median rank. However, an engagement rate of 3.8% performs well against the 1.19% median. This high interaction level justifies a price closer to the top of the estimated band. The active audience suggests the reach provides good value for the cost. These are modelled estimates from public metrics, not disclosed earnings.
