Two by one: the most read articles and authors Habra and GT

If anyone does not know, on Habré, like Hiktaimes, you can always see all the top-rated articles of all time . But neither the articles nor the authors are sorted in any way. The list below reflects the almost complete truth about the most widely read articles of “Habra” and “Hiktaims” for all the time. Almost - because, unfortunately, the public counter was turned on only on September 27, 2012 (approximate date), so if it seems to you that some of your favorite texts of the era, when Habr was more cake, there were a missed views - maybe you are right . However, partly the factor of the counter that had not worked before is leveled by a powerful tail in the form of search traffic, so really strong texts in any case should have received what is due to them - but more on that later.

So, the most top 100 most readable posts for all time on Habré and GT in the sum. Megamozg included by default, because The data was collected on May 21, after the reverse merger with Habr :

So, about the non-working counter: for really good posts that appeared before September 2012, this factor should be compensated by the tail of search traffic, which gives a very good increase - search engines like Habr almost like Wikipedia, and if at your request, there is a relevant text on Habré, then it will most likely be on the first issue screen. How it works, I know it from my own experience: at the start the article “ What's wrong with Windows 8 ” gathered about 50 thousand views. For the next 3.5 years, the counter overclocked right up to 366K - this is in its purest form an example of a habr-SEO effect.
')
If we expand the posts from the top 100 by year, the graph will confirm my hypothesis:



39 out of 100 posts were written before September 27, 2012. Those. Almost 40% of publications in the top were in it solely due to the powerful tail of the search traffic. Praise to Googlelodex, really successful posts are not lost in time, and they get well-deserved views years after publication.

Only one hundred of the most popular articles were written by 85 authors. Eleven of them managed to do this more than once:

  1. vvzvlad - 4
  2. alizar - 4
  3. Mirantus - 2
  4. realovich - 2
  5. polym0rph - 2
  6. shimapa23 - 2
  7. tarzan82 - 2
  8. ProgerXP - 2
  9. ValdikSS - 2
  10. amarao - 2
  11. akibkalo - 2

The remaining 74 authors have one hit each.

Now the second part of Marlezonsky ballet. Top 100 Reviewers of all time. The rating includes the total results for users with one nickname from “Habra” and “Hiktaims”. Again, the data is taken from the counter, so some of the merits of the authors of the good old times may be lost. However, do not forget about the search tail and about the fact that in the good old days and attendance Habra was less. Special mention in the ranking was deserved by all the favorite authors of news on GT - the editors:

Top users in pie charts for lovers of pie charts. Yes, Alizar and Marx divided almost one third of all registered views of Habr and Giktime:



The pie chart minus the editors contains less frightening imbalances:



The average number of views makes a little difference. This is exactly the top for 2012-2016, because data is immediately taken from articles published since September 27, 2012

Technical list, do not click - there is nothing interesting
The Habr parser has a strange feature: the nicknames inside the table are not clickable, if not found in the rest of the text at least once in the clear. Therefore, the list of authors mentioned in the top, but not found anywhere else in the text: 1cloud , alconost , aleksandrit , AlexeyNadezhin , alexzfort , Andrey2008 , anton , Apps4All_post , atomlib , BarsMonster , BasmanovDaniil , BeLove , Captcha , cigulev , ClusterM , Sarahansha , SaranaDaniil , BasmanovDaniil , BeLove , Captcha , cigulev , Cénterova , demine , BasmanovDaniil , BeLove , Captcha dmitryburner Mithgos , Osipovije zhovner , Kpyto , Cord , Ariman , soulburner , MaGIc2laNTern , sashaeve , Ocelot , Mairon , azproduction , BizDev , BubaVV , shuvaevgl , Dmitry21 , Newbilius , progchip666 , JustRamil , Rumlin , frii_fond , GlukKazan , lol_wat , frekenbok


The first place of ushanov90 can be explained by an ideal habro-strategy: write one megahit post “ Hack Wi-Fi in ... 3 seconds ”, which earned 1.5 million views - and write nothing more. However, with such a margin from the nearest pursuer, he can write another 6 posts and regardless of their result, remain in the first place.

The following akibkalo wrote just seven posts, each and every one about the products of MS - Windows 8, Windows 10 and MS Ofiice - which collected from 16 to 841 thousand views . Apparently, people walking Windows gave Habra a very good share of traffic.

In general, the first 6 lines of this top should squeeze a tear from each Habr-non-cake, because there Habr is exactly the way they would like to see it: 5 authors about the design, one with quality posts about design. Impurities of news, corporate blogs and all such other things start with 7 lines.

One of the victims of the cleared from the data until 2012, the calculation was Boomburum , who went to work in TM and practically stopped writing on Habré / GT on his own behalf. However, some part of the views of the user habrahabr - also his merit.

The effect of turning on the counter is clearly visible in the graphs below:


By week (number after year - week number)


By months

On them you can see the value of search traffic for Habr - i.e. Reducing the amount of views of newer posts by month is actually likely to reverse growth - the older the post, the more views it has from the search, and their number grows every day.

For the collection and sorting of data, please add ushim to the habrauser , for the idea and analysis - me. All collected data for self-study here: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ePQFqJv5yY_BY05pNS0QBh6fd9U_CwLGDnGNfab_qO8
