What this launch shows

Resend posted this from an account with 35K followers and reached 2.2 times that many people. 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 268 of 314 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 603K views, at rank 1839 of 2314.

Likes led, 651 at 82.7 per 10,000 views against a median of 28, with the heavier signals closer to usual: 210 bookmarks, 29 replies, 11 quotes. A like is a reaction. The post was enjoyed more than it was kept.

The post opens with “We built our own email infrastructure from scratch”. It carries a 6:56 video against a directory median of 66 seconds.

Videos over 90 seconds have a median of 590K views in the directory. The copy runs 37 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 Friday. Launches posted on a Friday have a median of 647K views in the directory, which makes it the strongest day.

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 developer marketing strategy: developers try before they read, so the post has to let them.

X analytics explained is the guide for it: what each of these numbers means, with benchmarks by account size. Every launch we track in Developer Tool is on that vertical's directory page.
