Does controversial content have more engagement and traction?

[Fidelia]

I just did a content that haa gathered the most engagement on social media. The content is somehow controversial and challenging what people believe. The likes and comments are so unprecedented. Does controversial contents always have the most engagements?

Yes, it does. I once published on controversial topic and the article got over 1000 comments and over 20k views in less 6 weeks.

When you challenge what people are believing in, they would always be huge engagement from both proponents and antagonists of your stance.

Yes. Controversial content tends to elicit strong reactions from users, leading to more comments, shares, and likes,

There is a reason why people are talking about religious leaders. Simple. They are controversial in nature and would generate traffic.
