What this launch shows

Greptile posted this from an account with 10K followers and reached 1.5 times that many people. Accounts of that size usually reach 46.1 times their following.

This one did not get far past the people who already followed it. It ranks 545 of 579 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 603K views, at rank 2161 of 2314.

The post started a conversation, and the ranking model pays for conversation with reach in the hours after. Bookmarks came in at 35, reposts at 9.

The post opens with “Introducing Computer Use in TREX”, the same first word as 25% of launches in the directory. It carries a 1:16 video against a directory median of 66 seconds. Videos between 30 and 90 seconds have a median of 537K views in the directory.

The copy runs 51 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 Wednesday. Launches posted on a Wednesday have a median of 622K 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.

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.
