What this launch shows

From an account with 2K followers, this reached 75.9 times the account's own following. The median for under 5K followers is 161.4 times, so this one stayed closer to home than most.

It ranks 362 of 627 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 688K views, at rank 1490 of 1981.

Quote posts led, 44 of them at 2.9 per 10,000 views against a median of 1.3.

People were adding their own take, which is how a launch gets argued about and carried into audiences the account does not have. Bookmarks: 156. Reposts: 11.

The first line is “Reintroducing friend”. It carries a 48-second video against a directory median of 65 seconds.

Videos between 30 and 90 seconds have a median of 603K views in the directory. The copy runs 3 words, shorter than 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 Tuesday. Launches posted on a Tuesday have a median of 651K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.
