What this launch shows

The post went out from an account with 95K followers and was seen by fewer people than follow the account. Accounts of that size usually reach 17.1 times their following.

This one did not get far past the people who already followed it. It ranks 284 of 314 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 603K views, at rank 2034 of 2314.

Saves led. 339 people bookmarked it, 96.4 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: 26 replies, 26 quotes, 26 reposts. One bookmark for every 1 likes is a high ratio and usually means a product people intend to try.

The post opens with “Introducing Cybersecurity Data in Alexandria 🔒”, the same first word as 25% of launches in the directory. It carries a 22-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 41 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 Thursday. Launches posted on a Thursday have a median of 631K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 647K.

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.

Why posts from large accounts under-reach is the guide for it: a post seen by fewer people than follow the account was held back by the ranking model. Every launch we track in Developer Tool is on that vertical's directory page.
