📊 Gælder 80/20-reglen også for medier?

Fra Chartbeat:

“The 80-20 Rule, also known as the Pareto Principle, is the idea that roughly 80% of results come from 20% of efforts. In practice, this might take the form of a farm where 80% of vegetables come from just 20% of crops or a business where 20% of customers account for 80% of revenue. […]

To determine how closely the publishing world adheres to the 80-20 rule, our Data Science team analyzed thousands of websites from more than 70 countries to understand what percent of articles drive the majority of pageviews and how the ratio might vary by factors like site size and subject matter. Here’s what we learned.”

🎤 Virker Spotifys podcast-strategi?

Fra Simon Owens:

“It’s difficult to give a completely objective assessment of the exclusivity strategy given my own reluctance to switch between apps, but I do think there’s a clear advantage to choosing the windowing approach instead.
