Algorithm and ranking

LET’S TALK ONLYFANS TOP % of ALL CRE-

ATORS – I assume the algorithm works some-

thing like this: It is all a fugazzi, plus hype, mixed

with data to make you feel proud. In my world I

call it gamification.

In simple terms this is where sites like OnlyFans

use badges or banners in order to create that

achievement or reward like feeling in your brain

which encourages you to share and compete with

yourself and others. Algorithms are not always

clear, and my guess is as good as yours.

There are way too many possibilities to be able to

say for certain, but it can begin to imagine it is

something like this: Join Date, Total Post, Earn-

ings, Likes, Attrition, Page Views, etc

DATE JOINED + LIKES + TOTAL FANS + EARN-

INGS x TIPS / X VELOCITY + POST TOTAL –

ATTRITION – MINUS CHARGE BACKS – QUICK

CANCEL - REFUNDS = TOP PERCENTAGE RANK

~WHOOHOO!

In other words, I do not care what your current

ranking says

What are social media algorithms, anyway?

Social media algorithms are a way of sorting posts in a users’ feed based on relevancy instead of publish time.

Social networks prioritize which content a user sees in their feed first by the likelihood that they’ll actually want to see it.

Before the switch to algorithms, most social media feeds displayed posts in reverse chronological order. In short, the newest posts from accounts a user followed showed up first. This is still an option on Twitter to set your feed to chronological order…

By default, social media algorithms take the reins of determining which content to deliver to you based on your behavior.

For example, Facebook or Twitter might put posts from your closest friends and family front-and-center in your feed because those are the accounts you interact with most often.

Chances are you’ve been recommended videos to watch on YouTube, right? This is again based on your individual behavior, digging into what you’ve watched in the past and what users like yourself are watching. Elements such as categories, #tags and keywords also factor into recommended content on any given network.

Why are social media algorithms so controversial?

This all probably seems straightforward so far. What’s the big deal about algorithms, then?

Well, much of the reason why algorithms are so controversial is because of their impact on reach.

Spoiler alert: algorithms aren’t necessarily perfect. Not by a long shot.

Oh, and algorithms are constantly evolving, attempting to work out the kinks and provide the best user experience possible. As a result, marketers have to consistently adapt to ’em. This means consistently experimenting with content and changing up marketing strategies
