The viral coefficient is a measure of how many new users are brought in by each existing user. It’s a quick and easy way to measure growth: if the coefficient is 1.0, the site grows linearly, and if it’s less than that, it will slow down. And if the coefficent is higher than 1.0, you have superlinear growth of a runaway hit.
