Great content!

Really interesting on the emotion/length/publish date.

For some of the graphs I would love to get some clarification.

EX: for " Number of shares per article lenght" is that average number of shares per article of that length?

I think that is what it is as the average post seems to get around 70-80 shares.

The main question I have is on Social Shares by Publication Day, as it is in the 400-600 is that "total shares per publication day?" or "average number of shares per post on each day?" I ask because if it is the former then it may just be that most people post on Tuesday so there are more shares on Tuesday.

Regardless awesome content would love to know more about the process behind it looking at all the blog posts.

Ex did you build your own scraper or use one of the new ones from PH like https://www.producthunt.com/tech/crawly

Thanks for the questions.

Both the number of shares per article length graph and the shares per day of the week are averages, not the absolute values. I'll be sure to clarify that in the post.

The crawlers were all custom written.
