This is done to assess the growth and performance of #cebu community. The data then presented using charts and tables, as applicable. The analysis also present a summary of all result.

II. Data presentation and analysis result

The following data presented below either tabulated or charted is based on the data extracted from SteemSQL as of March 9, 2018 ( 2 PM UCT).

If we compare the data from the previous month, we can accumulate an increase in the no. of authors, posts, and upvotes amounting to 87, 1198, and 39713, respectively. At the same time, we can observe a decrease in the comment and total payout generated by the #cebu equal to 3262 and 2565.413 respectively. Overall, we can see a positive growth indicator in the #cebu tag which we can account 87 new authors, even though with the decrease in comments and payouts. The positive increase in post and upvotes could be attributed to the increase in the number of authors.

An increase of 28 authors from the January's 85 author per day to February's 133 authors per day on average. However, the increase in the number of authors does not result to any positive increase in terms of number of post, comments and payouts generated. We can account a decrease in the daily average of post, comments and payouts equal to 25, 50, and 40.24 respectively. The only factor that has a positive increase as compared to the increase in the number of authors per day is in terms of upvotes generated where the average increases to 1599.

IV. Tools and Codes

I extracted the data from SteemSQL by importing it on Microsoft Excel using SQL Queries. I used Microsoft Excel to visualize and create a graph for the data. The data is extracted by using COUNT() and SUM() function from comments and json_metadata. The variables being treated are authors, no. of post, comments, total payout, and net votes. The full SQL script is shown below.

SQL query for Overall January and February 2018 Data
SELECT
MONTH(created) AS MONTH,
COUNT ( DISTINCT author ) AS Author,
COUNT (*) AS Posts,
sum(children) AS Comments,
sum(net_votes) AS Upvotes,
sum(total_payout_value) AS Total_Payout
FROM Comments (NOLOCK)
WHERE
parent_author = '' AND
created >= CONVERT(datetime,'01/01/2018') AND
created< CONVERT(datetime,'03/01/2018') AND
depth = 0 AND
json_metadata LIKE '%"cebu"%'
GROUP BY
month(created)
SQL query for Daily February 2018 Data
SELECT
DAY(created) AS DAY,
COUNT ( DISTINCT author ) AS Author,
COUNT (*) AS Posts,
sum(children) AS Comments,
sum(net_votes) AS Upvotes,
sum(total_payout_value) AS Total_Payout
FROM Comments (NOLOCK)
WHERE
parent_author = '' AND
created >= CONVERT(datetime,'02/01/2018') AND
created< CONVERT(datetime,'03/01/2018') AND
depth = 0 AND
json_metadata LIKE '%"cebu"%'
