We aggregated a Twitter dataset utilizing Twitter Archiving Google Sheet (TAGS) to interact with Twitter’s API and return relevant data. To analyze the marketing side of the conversation around ChatGPT, we selected #ChatGPT as a common hashtag to target tweets talking about AI. This is the marketing dataset, so we included hashtags “marketing”, “content creation”, or “creator economy” as content creation is a field heavily impacted by ChatGPT’s writing capabilities as a chatbot and creator economy is a common word used by experts to describe the overarching industry. This would give us a more specific dataset to analyze what people well-versed in marketing, ChatGPT’s ideal audience, thought about AI’s role in marketing. Because of the TAGS limitation, our dataset was limited to tweets ranging from January 21st to January 25th for both datasets.

This dataset provides details on Twitter threads, focusing on the engagement dynamics of individual tweets within a thread. It was compiled to explore the observed phenomenon where engagement metrics such as retweets, likes, and replies typically decrease with each subsequent tweet in a thread. The data offers insights into how users interact with multi-tweet content and can be used to analyse factors influencing engagement, potentially aiding in the development of strategies for optimising content on the platform. It also offers scope for Natural Language Processing (NLP) to understand how the context of a thread might affect engagement patterns.

Columns

• id: A unique identifier for each tweet.
• thread_number: An identifier used to group individual tweets belonging to the same thread.
• timestamp: The creation date and time of each tweet.
• text: The actual content of each tweet.
• retweets: The number of times each tweet was retweeted.
• likes: The number of times each tweet was liked.
• replies: The number of replies each tweet received.

Distribution

The dataset is organised into five distinct files, categorised by thread length: those with 5-10 tweets, 10-15 tweets, 15-20 tweets, 20-25 tweets, and 25-30 tweets. Each of these categories, or "bins," contains approximately 100 unique threads, resulting in around 500 threads in total. All files maintain an identical column structure. The dataset includes a substantial number of individual tweet records, with counts for different metrics like retweets and likes extending into the thousands across various value ranges. For example, there are 1,732 records with 0-63.4 likes and 1,695 records with 0-2026.7 retweets.

Usage

This dataset is ideal for: * Analysing engagement patterns within social media threads. * Conducting social science research on online communication behaviour. * Developing and testing hypotheses regarding content effectiveness on platforms like Twitter. * Exploring the influence of tweet content and context on user interaction using NLP techniques. * Informing content strategy and optimisation for social media managers and marketers.

Coverage

The dataset consists of tweets collected between October 2017 and May 2018. The data is global in scope, reflecting general Twitter activity. While no specific demographics are detailed, observations from the data collection suggest that the context or topic of threads (e.g., political vs. art threads) may influence engagement. The threads included were chosen solely based on their length, ranging from 5 to 30 tweets, irrespective of their content.

Universitat Politècnica de Valencia.The object of this study is the design of a cybermetric methodology whose objectives are to measure the success of the content published in online media and the possible prediction of the selected success variables.In this case, due to the need to integrate data from two separate areas, such as web publishing and the analysis of their shares and related topics on Twitter, has opted for programming as you access both the Google Analytics v4 reporting API and Twitter Standard API, always respecting the limits of these.The website analyzed is hellofriki.com.

Global ad spend were expected to reach over $134 billion in 2022. This means that it has increased by over 17% yearly.

Social media platforms are integral to people's lives, offering ways to communicate, create and view content and share information. According to Ofcom, approximately 89% of UK internet users in 2023 used social media apps or sites. Teenagers and young adults are the biggest users, although there is rapid uptake among older age groups. Advertising is the primary revenue source for social media platforms, although subscription-based services are gaining momentum as platforms seek to diversify their incomes. TikTok is the success story of the last few years, becoming the most downloaded app between 2020 and 2022, according to Apptopia. The short-form video platform reported that it averaged revenue growth of over 450% between 2019 and 2022. After Musk's takeover, X, formerly known as Twitter, adjusted its content moderation and allowed previously banned accounts to return. As a result, over 600 advertisers have pulled their ads from the site because of fears their brand may be associated with malcontent. In response to falling ad revenue, X has introduced a subscription-based service which enables users to verify themselves and boosts the number of people who view their tweets. Meta-owned Facebook and Instagram have responded by introducing a similar service. Revenue is expected to grow by 14.3% in 2024-25, constrained by a slowdown in user growth for most major social media platforms. Over the five years through 2024-25, revenue is forecast to expand at a compound annual rate of 32.8% to reach £9.8 billion. Looking forward, regulations relating to how data is collected, stored, and shared will force advertisers and platforms to rethink how they can target their desired demographics. The rising prominence of AI will require the introduction of adequate regulations. The Online Safety Bill sets out new guidelines for social media platforms to abide by, with hefty fines in store for those who do not. Operating costs will swell as platforms look to meet consumers’ expectations, weighing on profit. Over the five years through 2029-30, social media platforms' revenue is projected to climb at an estimated 9.4% to reach £15.4 billion.
