Why it spread

It spread mainly because it came from a big source: the account has a top quarter source reach, and the post drew 8,029 views, though only 30 likes, 1 repost, 0 quotes and 2 saves against the account's typical 148 likes.

What worked

  • The chart used an unusual chart type, a scatter, which stood out and drew attention.
  • It was branded and carried a source line, which lent it credibility from a big source.
  • The post framed the chart as part of a numbered series with a clear call to explore results, configs, logs and a profit estimator.

What to borrow

We could use a scatter to show a cost efficiency and interactivity tradeoff in our own data, brand it, add a source line, and frame it as one part of a numbered series with a clear next step.

Careful

Do not over-read the engagement: likes, reposts, quotes and saves were all far below the account's typical likes, so reach came from the big source rather than strong audience response.
