Why it spread

This post spread because it reached 26,551 views and 259 likes, which is 9.6x the account's typical likes of 27, driven by many quotes and an unusual chart type.

What worked

  • The small-multiples chart type was unusual for the feed, which helped it stand out.
  • The post earned 46 reposts circulating the numbers and 89 saves for later reference.
  • The quote rate was above average, showing people wanted to add their own commentary on the cloud growth comparison.

What to borrow

We could use a small-multiples layout to compare several of our own metrics side by side, keeping a clear source line and a branded look.

Careful

Do not over-read the reach, since the source reach was only in the bottom quarter, and do not assume the same result without the unusual form and the many quotes.
