Topics that steemers like to comment most and topics that get most payouts

Hi steemers! 

I decided to have a look what community likes to talk most and which topics collect most rewards. First, lets have a look at topics that receive mosts comments.

Two topics dominate - "steemit" and "introduceyourself". This seems quite intuitive as community is very new and people are trying to understand what is this platform about and how it works. Therefore, many topics are about the platform itself. Second most popular topic to receive comments is introductions. It seems that people are trying present themselves and their interests/competencies to others and maybe find something common between each other. 

Third and fourth topics are "photography" and "money" which are less popular at this point of time compared to first two topics. 

So to sum up, if someone wants to receive many comments or have a discussion, it would be safe to go for steemit or introduceyourself topics.

Now let's have a look at topics that receive most payouts. 

 

People comment two topics most - "steemit" and "introduceyourself", and they receive most rewards, which seems natural. However, "introduceyourself" receives significantly more rewards compared to how often it is commented on: 27% of total rewards go to "introduceyourself", while total replies to this topic account to 19%. It seems that steemers value introductions a lot and are rewarding people that write it. 

Third and fourth topics to receive most rewards are "travel" and "life". Both of these topics are less commented but receive good rewards. 

So to sum up, currently topics about Steemit and introduceyourself are most popular in terms of comments and receiving rewards. So currently majority is learning about the platform and each other. Will be interesting to see when community grows and other topics will be of more interest.

If you have suggestions for analyzes, please let me know!
