The platform is launching “Top 10 on Netflix,” a new stand-alone website that will showcase weekly global numbers for its most popular and bingeable content, the company announced Tuesday.
That’s a big departure from how Netflix has traditionally shared viewership data, which was to sporadically announce the numbers simply by adding up how many accounts watched at least two minutes of a film or series.
The move is notable because until recently Netflix mostly kept its viewership numbers under wraps.
As the king of streaming, Netflix ‘s moves can have an outsized impact on the market at large.
Also, with a public scoreboard for Netflix’s offerings, it’s easier to see what a winning content strategy looks like for the company.
