What this launch shows

The post went out from an account with 31K followers. It was seen 28.2 times over. The median for 25K to 100K followers is 20.9 times, and this sits near it.

It ranks 141 of 264 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it sits at 1.3 times the median of 688K views.

Saves led. 5K people bookmarked it, 54.1 per 10,000 views against a directory median of 11.7. A bookmark is a plan to come back, and it tracks signups and demo requests more closely than a like does.

The rest: 175 replies, 31 quotes, 326 reposts. One bookmark for every 1 likes is a high ratio and usually means a product people intend to try.

It starts “This is amazing”. It carries a 14-second video against a directory median of 65 seconds.

Videos under 30 seconds have a median of 850K views in the directory. The copy runs 39 words, about the usual length for a launch post here, where the median is 41.

There is a link in the body, which costs a post some reach and buys it a place to send people. It went out on a Thursday. Launches posted on a Thursday have a median of 724K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.

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 X analytics explained: what each of these numbers means, with benchmarks by account size.
