Strong Engagement From Hispanic TV, Sports

Rentrak Corp. released its Stickiness Index and Social Media Index for the week ending June 10 and Univision has three of the top 10 broadcast programs, while the NBA Playoffs is a strong performer in the cable universe.

Rentrak Corp. today released both the Stickiness Index and Social Media Index for the week ending June 10, 2012.

The Stickiness Index lists the top 20 primetime programs based on level of viewer engagement as determined by how much the average percentage viewed of the program varies from an average of all programs of the same duration during Monday-Saturday primetime (8-11 p.m.) and Sunday primetime (7-11 p.m.). The Social Media Index combines Rentrak’s TV Essentials system with Bluefin Labs’ social response analytics to show how television programming triggers reactions through social media which can affect audience visibility and engagement.

Programs with the most engaged viewers will have a higher Stickiness Index rating number, indicating that more of the audience is tuned-in for the duration of the program. Similarly, programs that generate the most social media comments will have a higher Social Media Index rating.

The Social Media Index covers a range from 0 to many thousands; its value indicates the amount of social media “chatter” that a given TV show is generating among all the shows that were discussed via social media.

An index of 100 means that the show is generating an average amount of discussion, and because the amount of social media discussion varies widely, the Social Media Index ranking numbers can go up to many thousands.
