Why it spread
This post spread because it paired an unusual chart type with a big source, earning 10,941 views, 79 likes, 20 reposts, 1 quote, and 26 saves from an account in the data journalism space.
What worked
- The chart type was unusual, which helped it stand out in a feed of more standard visuals.
- The source had top quarter reach, giving the post a large built in audience.
- The post was branded and included a source line, which added credibility and made it easy to share.
What to borrow
We could use an unusual chart form to present our own data, and frame it around a clear geographic or demographic question like where people come from.
Careful
Do not over read the quote rate, which was below average, and do not assume the same form will work without a strong source or a clear story.
