The next biggest was Business Insider (30 million monthly uniques), with 147 shares per story. On Twitter, Harvard Business Review got an even greater 724 tweets per story that month.

How has HBR been able to find such success with social? The publication is great with writing attention-grabbing headlines, how-to content, and evergreen content — three staples of successful digital publishers.
HBR also utilizes a team of regular contributors, which account for 90 percent of the website’s content. This is another strong suit of their digital strategy.
