Key Stats for Authors – September 26 2016
Summary: Upvotes doubled since yesterday and number of posts went up by 59.5% .
66.5% of the posts are likely to receive a reward.
According to the Steemit Whitepaper the key metric for Steemit’s success is number of upvotes per day. Steemit measures itself against Reddit.
For Authors and Investors this metric is key to monitor the engagement of the Steemit community.
The number of upvotes for each day are based on the report taken the next day before 10 am UTC.
Please note that posts can collect additionally votes over a period of 1 month. The numbers could be around 3-5% higher over time. The idea of this statistic is to give you a trend over the current engagement of the curators.

Upvotes are now counted for the posts who were activated on this day of this report.
The number of posts is another indicator about authors activity on the platform.
The statistics for posts is set by the date the post was created by the author. This does not mean the post was published at the same time. In the future I will look into when the post was activated (published). Only when it is activated steemit users can vote on the post.

Today onwards find now the statistics on posts based on the date of activation.
How likely will authors receive a reward with their posts?
This statistic is based on the likely payout the post will receive based on the data of the same day. A post just published before midnight of this day will likely not yet have attracted enough upvoting power by the curators to get a likely reward.

From now on the likely payouts are for the posts that were activated on the day of this report.

The statistics on posts are just for newly created posts rather than created and resteemed posts, correct?
To my understanding the upvotes are always counted toward the post if resteemed or not.
I'm sorry, I didn't phrase my question well. Say you create a post that four people reblog. That's still counted as just one post, right?
Yes this is correct.
this is some great data here! thanks for putting this together
