Scouta Stats

This month has been an interesting one at Scouta. Aside from the obvious recent features released, the honor of attending Ross Dawson’s Web 2.0 event, and being ranked 6th in Australia.

What’s really grabbed my attention is we are now starting to see some fascinating statistics popping out of Scouta about popular content.

Firstly, let me point out, Scouta isn’t about top ten results. We focus on individuals, and their tastes and interests, however, we also know that the “Wisdom of Crowds” can produce some interesting results.

So this month I can tell you that Fergie’s new single, Big Girls Don’t Cry has been a lot more popular than Linkin Park’s What I’ve Done. How do I know.

Here’s Scouta’s Google Analytic charts showing both favorite videos as viewed in Scouta.

Now here’s a pie chart with Scouta’s popular content, showing the percentage of total page views. The blue shows our welcome page at 17%. Next up in Fergie in green with 6.14%. Linken Park’s video is the yellow at 2.23%.

The mystery for me - which someone might be able to clear up - is why SNL’s Chris Farley and Patrick Swayze’s Chipp ‘n Dale sketch is number three with 2.70%.
