The response was thin for the reach: 1K bookmarks, 78 replies, 245 quotes and 312 reposts against 807 likes. Views arrived from people outside the audience the product is for, and they kept scrolling. One bookmark for every 0.7 likes is a high ratio and usually means a product people intend to try.
The first line is “We just launched something the VFX community has been waiting for”. 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 47 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 Monday. Launches posted on a Monday have a median of 618K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.
