"Hover play" counts as "views." If someone is scrolling slowly, and hover play begins playing, this will look like someone clicked on your video, but really all they did was stop scrolling for a moment and video started playing automatically. When the person returns their attention to their feed, and hover play ceases, this looks to your analytics like someone "clicked away" from your video in the first few seconds.
Not much you can do about people who scroll slowly or leave their news feed open when they aren't looking at their phone.
Yeah, so incredibly stupid that those count as views! Either only count "real clicks" as views or put a MINIMUM "hoovering time" like 30 or 60 seconds for them to count as views. Don't you have to be intelligent to work for UA-cam?
A very difficult question, do you know if the retention of a video is negatively affected when there are comments with timestamps that lead people many times to see only a few seconds of your video? or this is good?
if you're talking about chapter, in my experience yes. in one of my channels, i put chapters and in the retention graph i could see that viewers was skipping, and i got 19% retention (155K views)
@@mrbetop- I don't think it's like that, otherwise UA-cam wouldn't make it available to creators
@@mrbetop- chapters has to be something good
@@mrbetop- but I was talking about the timestamps that people leave in comments
Pretty sure incentives to fast forward on the video = higher retention
They wouldn't leave if they don't even click it :')
such a wise words
My audience retention is so good after the beginning. BUt the beginning 70 percent leave. But the beginning is better then the end and middle.
Love it, Sam! Really cool to hear that you're an electric guitar player. I searched to see if you have a YT channel, and I saw that you're a worship guitarist - nice!! My husband Jonny teaches guitar and his passion is also electric guitar for worship. Nice to connect with you!
This is probably the most concise and informative video ever on your channel to help content creators. I'm not just saying that because I play guitar too. I am saying that because I am guilty of at least two things you said NOT to do! Thank you!
Yep, great video here, with practical advice. I especially loved the section on the obstacles, what's at stake, desire, etc - Thanks for share and helping make me a better UA-camr!
what font do you use for your video?
The problem That i feel in my videos are the insane amount of lag that i experience That i face at the start of the race ...
i play gta online custom races and post it either solo or with my friends (This coming week will be all against friends) but the thing is that my gameplay has some lag problem at the beginning of the race but eventually it fixes at about 1-2 mins in the race but most of the viewers don't even hold that long making my average retention even less than a minute
It really depends on the software you use while recording. See if you’re on windows the. obs studio adds tons of lag on a mid range pc or laptop. But if you have nvidia card then use shadowplay its an integrated recording software and same case with amd there’s another software for it again integrated in amd graphic card to record search it up. Both of them not only optimize the gameplay but the recording as well
Also the thumbnail and the title matters as well
I like how you apply each and every thing you’re explaining to this same video…. 👏🏽
Hellooo. I have a retention rate that starts below 100 at second 1. How is that possible?
Any usable tips for music channels?🤔 I think all the tips you have given are for channels where the creator talks to the camera.
My videos are all about travel, do you feel that giving a preview of some scenes from later in the video is an appropriate hook or should I test out other strategies?
I think it sounds like a great idea. Test it out for 5-10 videos and see if it makes a difference!
Thanks for the tips!
This video was really helpful. I like all the tips and I will try to use them. One question please. I started my channel this year and I have 915 subscribers almost reaching 1000 but the problem is my watch time is 700. It is going very slow comparing to my subscribers. Is it normal? Any tips to improve that please?
Just focus on your content guys ❤️
Been doing it on my own for about 2 months.started by just focusing on trying to have fun and enjoy the content im making myself. Took some time but i Got monetised and making 0.2 daily and nice to see it finally picking up.
thanks man, this is a great video, helped me a lot
Thank you so much!!
great advice. thanks!
Learned a lot thank you bro
But the fact is some realise the video is already good and save it for later. Also if they stop or start the video which registers as a new watch.
Thanks for the valuable information
I do movie reviews. So I can only hope they enjoy my views on what I thought of the product etc. So it's a hit and miss. But the editing and movie clips in my videos are spot on.
This is a GREAT video, but there's a problem with it. In fact there's a problem with all videos of this type. They all give the advice to tell a story in our videos and the only example is always Mr. Beast. I got it, it's the easiest example to give, because he's doing entertaining videos and a story fits very well in all his videos.
It would be awesome if you guys made a video about creating a story while doing tutorial videos for example, where 70% of the video is screen recording if it's a software tutorial. Or a video talking about how to deliver a tutorial video in another way, so that we can insert some storytelling in it. I know Mr Beast is very very good at this, but we should see other examples too, from other niches, don't you think? That would be helpful!
You will LOVE our next video then....
Thanks a lot!
Some of my videos have great audience retention while some really need some help. I’m Really trying to grow my channel this year! I have a long way to go, but I am so grateful for each and every one of my 51 subscribers!
Thank you so much
On EVERY simgle video I post, after 30 seconds more than 70% of the viewers have left already. I spend endless amounts of time creating the hook of my videos but it changes absolutely nothing. I was hoping someone could tell me what's the issue. Is it my accent? Are the hooks still to boring? Is it audio or image quality?
Hallo John, I’m have never done it but I have read your comment and went through one of your video … and spot a few things… I’d be more than happy to share that with you … maybe less publicly so that is as fair as it gets … if we get connect though this let me know… and no I don’t ask for anything in exchange … just wanna to genuinely help
thanks the information I hope is can help me
Story telling is great however it depends on the niche. How can you tell a story if your channel is about teaching, say a language? Thanks for the tips.
We will talk about how educators can tell stories in our next video! Keep an eye out for it!

What's more important? Retention rate or followers?
What I heard and take it with a grain of salt. views are important, so get more eye on your content but also learn why people watch your content. Way, I'm hearing it
Hi Sam, nice informative video and without too much hidden promises to keep retention up … also I see that most of the viewer which are on YT would benefit from honest feedback Hook, Storytelling , Tension are things that if you are bit serious about your YT you know but … maybe 🤔 it makes sense to get some direct feedback … if you Sam and other reading here agrees let me know in some form … and no I ask nothing in exchange I just want to genuinely offer feedback as this is so unvaluable … let me know and keep it up
this does not explain how some of my videos drop to 66% or 44% retention in the first second. in fact not even a second just starts at 0:00. u cant even click off or even make a judgment in that time so how is that possible? I try and make my new videos good but retention is just not good and I don't get it. I even watch them making sure its not boring and try and make it as engaging as possible. Even I the creator is entertained by it. Usually I hate what I make but I love my new videos and don't find them boring at all and im a UA-cam rat. someone who spends tons of time watching UA-cam so I know good videos and bad videos. I don't think my videos are bad and I showed many people and they also found some of my videos funny so I just don't get how UA-cam works. My newist video is over an hour long and I watched it twice in a row in the editor not being bored at all. thats over 2 hours of me just watching what I made. If it was boring I would not watch it so im so confused. HOW DOES THIS POOP OF A WEBSITE WORK??? ALSO WHY DO MY OLD VIDEOS THAT I SHAT OUT WITH NO EFFORT GET SO MANY VIEWS BUT THE ONS I TRY ON DONT?
How are peoples attention spans so short they can’t even watch a 10 minute video😂
SAAAAAMMMMMMMMM 🙌🏼
Beast repeats the title....
Guide more
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Bro sounds like me when he talks no energy
I only have 62 subscribers 😢
Definitely do not repeat the title or thumbnail in the opening part of the video
I have 2 views per video 😓😓😓
That's not the structure of a good story. do your research.
why your four head so big
actually curious lol
First 😆
saw you watching @ruriohama how dare you blur her face! ;)
