HUMIX REVIEW FOR 2023

State of Digital Publishing has been using the Humix Network for more than a month now and we’re ready to share our results.

We won’t be looking at how the platform works, as we’ve already written at length about our experiences using it. If you’re looking to understand the platform’s mission, its inner workings and the options it offers, then check out our platform overview of the Humix Network here.

Instead, for this article we’re going to dive into the performance metrics of a video we’ve shared on the platform. This video has been live on YouTube for some time now and was reshared with the Humix Network.
