Assessment summary

An author-run analytical channel on geopolitics and the economy: analyses of current events — sanctions licenses, the oil market, the budget and taxes, government reshuffles — and announcements of paid “monster texts” on Sponsr. The channel is 9 years 8 months old; posts are in Russian, mostly on weekdays during the day.

A post here is seen more widely than in most similar channels in the catalog: ERR is about 119%, meaning there are more views than subscribers, and this is consistent with the noticeable spread of views across posts. The feed appears rarely — about once every three days — ads make up 2% of it, and there are no reposts, so an ad stays in the visible part of the feed for a long time but accumulates few new impressions.

About the channel

“Кримсон Дайджест” is a channel of the CrimsonAnalytics project: margin notes on current events in politics, the economy, sanctions, the oil market and Russian elites, plus announcements of long analyses on the Sponsr platform. Posts are in Russian; the channel is 9 years 8 months old. Format: captioned photos, text notes, screenshots of documents such as an OFAC license, and infographics.

In the catalog it sits next to @politadequate and @bitkogan: it has fewer subscribers than both, but a larger share of its subscribers sees a post than theirs. @medvedev_telegram, by contrast, has more than ten times as many subscribers and a higher share of readers.

What it publishes:

  • Margin notes: reactions to fresh events — government reshuffles, Putin’s answers to journalists, the terms of a sanctions license for diesel.
  • Analysis announcements: “as part of the reader information program” — a summary of the contents of paid texts on Sponsr with a link to them.
  • Economy and markets: oil and diesel fuel, British bonds, the Russian budget and new taxes, infographics based on research.
  • Foreign press review: Wall Street Journal leaks, material from Reuters, CBS and The Economist.

Posts come out on weekdays during the day; there are no reposts from other channels. They publish rarely — about once every three days — as long notes by the author with occasional ad inserts.

By subscribers, it ranks #44 of 93 channels in the News and Media niche of the catalog.

What to pay attention to

More views than subscribers: ERR ≈ 119%

Views are higher than the subscriber count, and the other metrics are consistent with this: views vary noticeably from post to post, and posts get reactions. This happens when people who are not subscribers also read posts — via links, reposts and search — or when there used to be more subscribers.

What grade A+ means

The metrics agree with each other: views and reactions are distributed as usual, and almost no signals lower the index.

Compared with similar channels

Compared with 25 News and Media catalog channels whose metrics look normal. They are a similar size: 53,927 to 388,873 subscribers.

ERR (reach) higher than 25 of 25
@crimsondigest 118.8%
similar channels median 13.9%

This is not a niche norm: only catalog channels are included. A high ERR is not always a plus: if the other metrics do not support it, the index goes down.

Questions about @crimsondigest

What does the cleanliness index of 95/100 show?

The cleanliness index is 95 out of 100, grade A+, level “metrics within norm.” There are almost no deviations: deleted messages about 0%, no reposts from other channels, ads in the sample 2%.

Why are there more views than subscribers?

ERR is about 119%: median views are 167,477 with 141,024 subscribers. Views vary noticeably from post to post; the audit data do not show where readers who are not subscribers come from.

Should I advertise here?

Advertising here is marked as justified. There are few posts — about 0.3 per day, ads make up 2% of the feed, so an ad stays visible for a long time but accumulates few impressions.
