What this launch shows

The post went out from an account with 13K followers. It was seen 29.1 times over. For 5K to 25K followers the usual multiple is 46.1, so the ranking model showed this to fewer strangers than it shows most launches.

It ranks 328 of 579 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 603K views, at rank 1374 of 2314.

Saves led. 4K people bookmarked it, 104.3 per 10,000 views against a directory median of 12. A bookmark is a plan to come back, and it tracks signups and demo requests more closely than a like does.

The rest: 179 replies, 45 quotes, 87 reposts. One bookmark for every 0.7 likes is a high ratio and usually means a product people intend to try.

It starts “Introducing the people search API”, the same first word as 25% of launches in the directory. It carries a 20-second video against a directory median of 66 seconds. Videos under 30 seconds have a median of 783K views in the directory.

The copy runs 31 words, about the usual length for a launch post here, where the median is 41. The body carries a link, so the post had somewhere to send the reader and paid a little reach for it.

It went out on a Friday. Launches posted on a Friday have a median of 647K views in the directory, which makes it the strongest day.

Attributing signups to a launch covers this: a save rate this high is the number to follow into the product. For the next one, read giving people something to reply to: the conversation is what carried this one.

Developer marketing strategy is the guide for it: developers try before they read, so the post has to let them. Every launch we track in Developer Tool is on that vertical's directory page.
