Engagement Analysis

Based on 12 recent posts

Platform Context

@thejoerickard ranks 10 out of 1733 accounts because its engagement rate sits well above the tracked median. This high percentage means every follower interacts with content at a much higher frequency than average. The account outperforms most peers in the corpus to achieve elite interaction levels.

The engagement rate of 71.33% dwarfs the 1.36% median and secures a rank of 10 out of 1733. This audience reacts far more than usual. Video content earns much higher rewards with 1.8K likes compared to only 506 likes for photos. This split proves that motion content drives deeper interaction from the followers. While the average post gains 1,000 likes and 34 comments, the consistency of these numbers suggests a loyal base. Reliability metrics show that only 8.3% of posts beat the double average while another 8.3% hit five times the mean. This indicates a stable core following rather than a reliance on unpredictable spikes. The audience is active.

Content Analysis

Hashtags, keywords, captions, and top posts

The standout post achieved a 24.1x multiplier over the median engagement of this account. This peak performance occurred on a Wednesday at 22:00 UTC and maintained a healthy ratio of roughly one comment for every thirty-eight likes. To replicate this success, focus on medium length captions between 40 and 100 characters. These posts average 7.8K likes while long captions over 100 characters perform poorly with only 464 likes. This gap suggests that concise, punchy copy is the primary driver for engagement here. Use the hashtags #stitchedupheart, #numetal, #deadtome, #altrock, and #gear to signal your niche to the algorithm. The posting cadence is low at roughly 0.2 posts per week. Since average engagement is exceptionally high relative to the follower count of 1.5K, prioritize consistent quality over frequent volume to maintain this reach. This account currently averages 1,000 likes per post.

Posting Patterns & Optimal Timing

When @thejoerickard posts on Instagram

This creator maintains a sparse high-effort pace with content landing only about once every five weeks. This frequency falls well below the median and places the account near the bottom of the follower rank for posting volume. A consistency score of 20 indicates an erratic rhythm characterized by long periods of silence followed by isolated posts. You can expect fresh content primarily on Wednesdays or Fridays. The most frequent upload window occurs at 22:00 UTC. Because the cadence is so infrequent and unpredictable, you cannot rely on a regular cycle to time your campaign. Marketers should treat each post as a rare event rather than a consistent stream. Planning a multi-post series or a recurring weekly tie-in is not feasible with this current output. You must coordinate specifically around their sporadic appearances if you want to ensure your content lands alongside theirs.

Who This Audience Is

What @thejoerickard's reach and engagement mean for a brand.

The follower count sits well below the typical creator average and does not reach broadcast scale. This profile holds verified status within the Music Producer category despite its small footprint. The engagement rate is exceptionally high compared to the median. Such a disparity suggests that while the total reach is limited, the interactions from those who do see the content occur at a much higher frequency than standard. This concentration of activity implies a very specific niche presence rather than broad appeal. The audience size is minor but the interaction density is intense. The account fits the music production and studio tools category.

Estimated Earnings

Revenue estimates based on follower count and engagement

The primary revenue stream for @thejoerickard is local brand partnerships. Based on the follower count, a sponsored post sits in the $0 to $0 range. Because this account ranks near the bottom of the platform, it is priced as a value buy. The quoted band serves as a ceiling to bargain under rather than a fixed salary. While the 71.33% engagement rate dwarfs the 1.36% median, the low follower count limits the reach of any paid campaign. This high interaction level makes the entry point an accessible option for hyper-local campaigns despite the limited scale. These are modelled estimates from public metrics, not disclosed earnings.
