VentureBeat Audience Graph • Social Signal

The top 10 neighbors for VentureBeat span tech-media websites, tech personalities, and news publishers — with no single standout pulling away from the pack. Similarity scores measure how closely two entities' audiences resemble each other in composition; here, the range runs from 0.99 down to 0.98, a band so compressed that the shape is effectively flat.

The leading neighbors are Recode (0.99), TechCrunch (0.99), and WSJ Tech (0.99) — all tech-focused media properties. Alongside them sit four Tech Personalities: Marc Andreessen (0.99), Chris Sacca (0.99), Tim O'Reilly (0.99), and Eric Schmidt (0.99). Techmeme (0.99) and AngelList (0.99) round out the websites cluster, while Marissa Mayer (0.99), classified as a Professional, is the one non-Tech-Personality individual in the set.

Tallying the top 10 by subcategory: four are Websites, four are Tech Personalities, one is a News Publisher (WSJ Tech), and one is a Professional (Marissa Mayer). VentureBeat itself is a Magazine — and no other Magazine appears in the top 10, meaning its nearest audience neighbors are drawn entirely from adjacent kinds: tech-media websites, venture-adjacent personalities, and one news publisher. The cross-kind pattern here is the defining feature: the audience that reads VentureBeat looks most like the audience that follows startup founders, investors, and real-time tech aggregators — not other magazines.

This flat, tightly clustered shape points to a highly specific professional audience that moves coherently across the tech-media and venture-capital ecosystem.
