Ever wondered if longer posts tend to have a higher payout value? Analyzing 5000 posts, it turns out that there is only a weak correlation between them! I took the 5000 newest posts that are at least 2 days old, and analyzed their pending payout value and post length in number of characters. This was done using a simple python script and the Steem library.
postLength = len(s.get_content(c['author'],c['permlink'])['body'])
payoutValue = s.get_content(c['author'],c['permlink'])['pending_payout_value']
Plotting a scatter plot on a logarithmic scale, we see the following:
Now similarly, with a trendline, we see a r=0.301, which indicates weak correlation.
What other interesting things are there about this plot? Comment below!
If you want to attract voting bot, longer length more likely get up voted.
That is very interesting thanks. One thing I noticed is you need to write at least 100 words to have any chance of earning well, that's a good tip to discover from you, thanks!
Man you are a genius , maths always blows away my mind , keep posting articles like this.
Content is the key my friend ,post engagement then follows
I did a similar type of analysis but it was based on my account rather than a large scale analysis. I wonder if you would be interested in collaborating on some #blockchainbi related analysis posts and create some data visualizations?
