Cloud Giants Update:
Why it spread
It spread because it earned 293 likes, 61 reposts, 7 quotes, 112 saves, and 62,805 views, which is 10.9 times the account's normal performance, driven by many quotes and an unusual chart type.
What worked
- The post text packs concrete run rates and year over year growth for AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud into a compact update.
- The small multiples chart type is unusual for the feed, which helped it stand out and attract quotes.
- The branded chart with a source line gave the post enough credibility to be saved 112 times.
What to borrow
We could use small multiples to compare several of our own metrics side by side, and pair it with a short text update that states each run rate and growth figure plainly.
Careful
Do not over-read the low design polish or medium self labelling as the cause, and do not assume the same format will work without the account's existing reach and the bottom quarter source reach.
