The Twitter Grade measures the relative power of a Twitter user. It is calculated as a percentile score. Our grade of 88 means that we score higher than 88 percent of the other user profiles that have been graded.
Your grade is calculated using a combination of factors including:
* The number of followers you have
* The power of this network of followers
* The pace of your updates
* The completeness of your profile
* …a few others.
