Why it spread

It spread because a bubble chart on a popular topic from an independent author reached a top quarter source audience, earning 402 likes, 116 reposts, 6 quotes, 169 saves, and 36,767 views.

What worked

  • The bubble chart type is an unusual form that stands out in a feed.
  • The post is self labelled and branded, with a visible source line, which builds trust.
  • The topic of most popular AI tools by monthly site visits is timely and broadly interesting.

What to borrow

We could use a bubble chart to rank our own tools or topics by a single measure, keep the design polished, add a clear source line, and post from our own independent voice.

Careful

Do not over read the quote rate, which is below average, and do not assume the same results without the independent author and top quarter source reach.
