Great work there

Evanspaul:

I go like work oh if he employs me.
I would have analyzed for the whole threads but I also have other project am working on, so i went for the front page only

Ajibel:
The one you've done already is a good start and is enough proof of your capabilities bro so make Seun & Mukina2 consider you so you can be analysing for the entire site while paid.

Evanspaul:
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 eighth 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 ninth 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

You can mail me for the python code for the web scrapping and data preparation.

This is nice.

Well done.

What materials would you advise to start with if one wants to learn data analysis?

Any link or referral to materials?

Thanks

Wow excellent job OP. Im surprised this isnt in the front page.

KingHogan1:
Unfortunately ,none of those posters make any money from nairaland. I don't think even the mods are well compensated and I don't think it generates as much money to it's potential. I think this forum is currently thriving due to lack of competition and alternatives. Total waste of time for the contributors and mods while the owner Seun smiles to the bank .

thebosstrevor1:
I am not wrong and i am not your dear. Stop your patronizing effort.

I guess you are part of the front page cartel.

How come almost all your post have gone to the frontpage since you registered in 2015?

Seems you are friends with one of the mods

obembet:
