What this launch shows
From an account with 212K followers, this reached 16.4 times the account's own following. Accounts in the same band, over 100K followers, reach a median of 2.4 times their following, so this travelled about 6.7 times further than usual for its size.
It ranks 160 of 611 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it sits at 5.1 times the median of 688K views.
Reposts led, 2K at 5.9 per 10,000 views against a median of 2.5. A repost is an endorsement without a comment, and a launch with an unusual repost rate was being passed along on purpose.
Bookmarks: 861. Replies: 355. One bookmark for every 20.5 likes is a low ratio for a launch, and reads as entertainment more than intent.
The first line is “Surprise and shine”. It carries a 6-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 14 words, shorter than 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 Wednesday. Launches posted on a Wednesday have a median of 721K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.
