Top 20 Most Viral Publishers on Social Networks
Ever wonder which publishers are getting the most shares on social platforms? New data from NewsWhip identified the top 20 most viral publishers in October 2013 by examining shares on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and LinkedIn.
NewsWhip also pulled out the data for shares on just LinkedIn, revealing some interesting differences. While total sharing on the platform was well behind Facebook and Twitter, LinkedIn users clearly showed a preference for less light-hearted and more tech-oriented content: top publishers on LinkedIn included Forbes, Mashable, The New York Times, BBC and Business Insider.
