Beyoncé, Nicki Minaj named Most Clickable Celebrities
Quote:
Kristen Stewart, Beyoncé and Nicki Minaj have topped the list for the 'Most Clickable Celebrities' from June 1 to August 31.
Stewart landed in the number one spot with a Click Factor of 9, while elsewhere Emma Watson came in sixth with a Click Factor of 5.3 and Prince Harry came in tenth place with a Click Factor of 2.3.
Web traffic generator MGID's Click Factor compiled the list after gathering data from internet user clicks via the MGID widgets featured in thousands of online publishers' websites.
The widgets use editorial teasers to attract internet users and encourage them to click on the links for more information on the websites.
MGID Click Factor's criteria includes the number of times people clicked on teasers about celebrities, how many articles online publishers produced about each celebrity and the average amount of click-throughs per teaser.
The top 10 list is as follows:
Kristen Stewart - Click Factor: 9
Beyoncé - Click Factor: 8
Nicki Minaj - Click Factor: 7.3
Selena Gomez - Click Factor: 6.7
Kim Kardashian - Click Factor: 6
Emma Watson - Click Factor: 5.3
Megan Fox - Click Factor: 5
Sunny Leone - Click Factor: 4
Justin Bieber - Click Factor: 3
Prince Harry: Click Factor: 2.3
Stewart made headlines this summer for her affair with her Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders while in a relationship with her Twilight co-star Robert Pattinson.
Prince Harry, on the other hand, was a fixture during the 2012 London Olympic Games and was caught in a naked scandal during his Las Vegas trip.
Does it mean they don't know who those people are if they have to click to find out who they are?
Or it means something else? I don't get it.
It means like "Beyoncé on vacation" or "Nicki Minaj says she's voting for Mitt Romney." People click to see the article. If it had to do with figuring out who the celebrity was then I doubt Kristen Stewart would be number one. Most people already knew her but they wanted to find out about the whole cheating scandal, etc.
