My video is my FIRST EVER gaming video

It has decent analytics but the main one I wanted to be good was ABYSMAL…

AVD was 2:22 :/ any reason why?

The audio? Sound effects? Story telling? The hook?

Please help me understand the average view duration statistic

Trying to BEAT Minecraft on HARDCORE MODE | Noob Plays Minecraft
https://youtu.be/IFZcbw1UlbI

Sup dawgs! After a long time, I return to play Minecraft, but this time instead of being on creative all the time like a lil B**CH we are jumping straight into hardcore and beating the whole game!

Can I do it? Or will it be too hard and I quit?

Sit back. Grab a snack. And enjoy my stupidity.

AVD of 2:22 rarely means that people left at 2:22

#

I'll give the video a watch later and see if I can give you some tips

#

it'll show you which parts of the video were good or bad

Maybe people just don’t like my face or something lol 😂

The huge 4min drop off is when YouTube decided to yeet that section out of my video so I had to re-edit it and then cut it out later

stuck hare
#

the bumps up are where people liked the content so much that they rewatched it

#

drops are people leaving

Sit back. Grab a snack. And enjoy.

flats are people watching but not rewatching

#

that sharp drop at the start tells you the intro isn't hooking people in

fierce ibex
#

Okay yeah my intro to my new video is hopefully better

#

The Minecraft one was definitely boring

#

So is where the apex of the spike happens, that second, are where people are re-watching the most or is it that whole spike?

#

Maybe you could start with a bunch of consecutive scenes of you dying in the game and thinking about quit and then cut for you explaining the challenge and creating a new game. Just some ideas

#

Still watching the rest of the video. Btw, the production seems quite good so far (better than mines haha). Keep up the hard work o/

#

That part in 10:44 when your tool breaks! That part could be a very good hook. It's funny and shows your "messing up" as "noob playing hardcore mode".

I had that at first with a bunch of clips in the beginning but I guess that was the problem idk but will keep posting and keep improving thank you all for your help!!

#

the section being rewatched is from the beginning of the spike to the end of the spike, the spike itself represents the point that all the people rewatching it see

#

so if someone rewatches 00:01-00:07 and someone else rewatches 00:03 - 00:05, the spike will be at 00:04 since both people watched that second

#

the chart is basically a chart of the number of views for each second of video, and the same person can create multiple views per second

#

or in other words, how many times each second of video was played, regardless of who played them

what’s your ctr look like?

fierce ibex
#

For this video it’s pretty good for me

#

I think around 2.4%

fierce ibex
#

Is that good?

stuck hare
#

CTR is a difficult stat to look at

#

higher doesn't mean better

#

lower doesn't mean better

#

it needs context to say whether its good or not

gusty sierra
# fierce ibex Is that good?

ctr is really depended on the impressions. again, since this is an early video for you i’d say this is okay, but it definitely needs work

fierce swift
# fierce ibex

Yeah I just looked at 4 of my past videos CTR and they range from 3% to 8.8%

gusty sierra
# fierce ibex

although it can be weird. for my most recent video, my ctr was 1.4% 2 days ago, and is now at 6.7%. i didn’t even change the thumbnail, title or anything. so it’s possible that youtube hasn’t quite yet found the best audience for your video, but if they do, your vid could end up gaining an influx in views

fierce ibex
#

Ahhh that makes a lot of sense yeah

fierce ibex
#

And I did have a video “blow up” before but I probated it because I switched niches

fierce swift
#

I think YouTube found my best audience (this is on my 500 view vid)
