Abstract
A subscribability is calculated for a channel on the web. One or more activity metrics related to the subscribability of a plurality of channels viewable over the Internet are identified. For each of the plurality of channels, an activity measure associated with the channel is obtained for each of the one or more activity metrics. For each of the plurality of channels, a subscribability score for the channel is calculated based on the one or more activity measures associated with the channel.
Claims24
A method, implemented by a server computing system, comprising:
- identifying, by the server computing system, one or more activity metrics related to subscribability of a plurality of channels viewable over the Internet, the one or more activity metrics are associated with consumption of channel content by subscribers of each of the plurality of channels;
- and
- for each of the plurality of channels:
- for one or more activity metrics, obtaining, by the server computing system, an activity measure associated with the channel, wherein the activity measure pertains to long watches of the channel by subscribers of the channel, each long watch of the channel representing a consumption of content of the channel that exceeds a predetermined duration;
- and
- calculating, by the server computing system, a subscribability score for the channel based on one or more activity measures associated with the channel, the subscribability score for the channel reflecting a number of long watches of the channel by the subscribers of the channel over a plurality of subscription time intervals.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having instructions that, when executed by a processing device, cause the processing device to perform operations comprising:
- identifying one or more activity metrics related to subscribability of a plurality of channels viewable over the Internet, the one or more activity metrics are associated with consumption of channel content by subscribers of each of the plurality of channels;
- and
- for each of the plurality of channels:
- for one or more activity metrics, obtaining an activity measure associated with the channel, wherein the activity measure pertains to long watches of the channel by subscribers of the channel, each long watch of the channel representing a consumption of content of the channel that exceeds a predetermined duration;
- and
- calculating, by the server computing system, a subscribability score for the channel based on one or more activity measures associated with the channel, the subscribability score for the channel reflecting a number of long watches of the channel by the subscribers of the channel over a plurality of subscription time intervals.
A computing device comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processing device coupled to the memory, wherein the processing device is configured to:
- identify one or more activity metrics related to subscribability of a plurality of channels viewable over the Internet, the one or more activity metrics are associated with consumption of channel content by subscribers of each of the plurality of channels;
- and
- for each of the plurality of channels:
- for one or more activity metrics, obtain an activity measure associated with the channel, wherein the activity measure pertains to long watches of the channel by subscribers of the channel, each long watch of the channel representing a consumption of content of the channel that exceeds a predetermined duration;
- and
- calculate a subscribability score for the channel based on one or more activity measures associated with the channel, the subscribability score for the channel reflecting a number of long watches of the channel by the subscribers of the channel over a plurality of subscription time intervals.
