With several excellent stories published in November and December, we update
our list of top 2015 stories, using data from the full year 2015, and using unique page views for ranking.
Here are the top 15 most viewed KDnuggets stories in 2015 and a word cloud of
top stories.
Analysis of views vs shares shows that there is little correlation (R2=0.38, but only 0.05 after excluding the 3 most viewed posts), but also a wide divergence, from 1.9 shares/100 views (lowest among top posts) to 23 shares/100 views.
Since shares occur after viewing, we can use shares/100 unique views as a measure of most shareable content.
