How many views is viral?

There is no fixed number. A breakout is a multiple of the account's own baseline. 10× is a strong outlier; 100× is a monster.

What if baseline views are missing or zero?

A missing or zero denominator is unmeasured. This page prints an em dash — never a fabricated 0, 0%, or $0.00 rate.

Is this a live campaign figure?

No. The figure is computed in this browser from the numbers you typed. A live TrueWave campaign also names the cycle, the counted platforms, and the age of the scrape.

How do I find the baseline?

Take the median views of the last ten posts and ignore one freak hit or flop.
