Twitter had many sign-ups but visitors didn’t come back after creating an account.

Twitter team used data from analyzing the most engaged users, to find out what is the cause of low retention.

Figuring that people who follow 5-10 accounts on their first day are more likely to become active users.

Using this knowledge, Twitter added features like suggesting accounts to add after creating account, causing the increase of active users.
