Hi guys look at the Data Analysis I did.
The data is from Nairaland home pages. The data is about posts that made it to the home page. It was gotten by web scraping using python programming language.
The data covers from 7 Jan 2020 to 29th December 2020.
The graphs and charts are plotted using tableau and Python Matplotlib.
In the first chart, each bar represents a user. The chart shows top 45 users that their topics made it to the front page. From the chart we can see that the user by name ‘dre11’ have the highest topics in the front page, followed by Islie and lalasticlala.

In the second frame, it covers the number of times a post from each thread made it to the front page. And from the chart we can see that the General thread have the highest number of topics on the front page and Science/Technology has the least appearance.

In the third frame, it shows the number of times a post from General sub threads made it to the front page. Politics tops the list followed by Crime and Health respectively.

In the fourth chart, which shows the number of times a post from the Entertainment sub-threads made it to the front page. And Celebrity tops the list followed by Sport then TV.

In the fifth chart, which shows the number of times a post from the Science/Technology sub-threads made it to the front page. It shows that most of its post is from ’Phones’ thread, while others contributed little.

In the sixth frame, it shows the most common words that appeared on the front page. The words in big font are those that have the highest occurrences.
Time series
The Seventh graph shows how many post made it to the front page in different time of the month. December tops the list, followed by October then November. I think that one of the reasons for this is; that December is a festival period and more news and topics are likely to surface, will in the October and November cases are likely to be influenced by the EndSars protest.
The sixth graph shows the number of time post or topic made it to the front page in different days of the week. Monday tops, while Saturday and Sunday are the lowest.
The seventh shows the number of times post or topic made it to the front page in different hours of the day. And 7am and 8am are the highest. While topics written at midnight and very early in the morning, have the least appearance in the front page.
Also below are useful chart/graphs from the analysis

I did. That's why I ask. Of what good is this analysis to the common man? Enlighten me

Modrators know which threads that usually pushed to the front page. As u can see most threads did not make it to the front page at all for a year.
If the users, it helps them know the time and the day in which they would post a topic and it will have more chance of making it to the front page.
