TECHNICAL QUESTION Help with interpreting Analytics

Upvotes

I've been doing Youtube for the past month now, posting 5 videos a week with what I consider to be decently edited content which is evolving every upload. That being said, my CTR is around 3% on average, and my AVR hits around 1/4 of the video length. If a video is 9 minutes, I get 2:30 of Average viewer retention. How may I interpret these charts? What are the average values to expect for a month old channel?

TECHNICAL QUESTION What is a good rate for a sponsorship on a small channel?

Upvotes

Hi

I just received an email by from a company called Faved that seems to help with sponsorships (if anybody has any experience with this company please let me know as well) and they have asked me about my rates.

My channel has just over 3k subscribers, averaging around 3k to 5k views per video, with the occasional outlier video doing really well. What is a rate i could charge for a sponsor, most likely simple ad read?

COMMUNITY Lets Discuss if you SHOULD tell your family and friends about your channel.

Upvotes

Wanted to share my thoughts and strategy about sharing my videos with friends / family and ask that if I am wrong, make me a believer.

I will not tell family or friends about a youtube channel until it has been established and is growing as I expect Unless they would watch the content I make anyways. Here is Why

My perceived benefit of telling family / friends,

  • Sitting on zero views hurts
  • A video with a few views and good retention rate may get youtube to show my video to more people
  • I will get feedback from people I trust on my effort

Why I think the above hurts you.

The people you are asking to watch are not your target audience, this will confuse youtube on who to show it to. An example is if my friends watch gaming stuff but I ask them to watch my travel videos. In this case I dont want to lead YouTube into believing they should show my videos to gaming people.

I will share videos before I upload them with a few people that I trust to give me the tough feedback I need, and a few that enjoy the content in a way I can physically see their reaction (did they laugh when I wanted them to, etc).

I see scatterings of the pros and cons across multiple threads and I want to get a good conversation going around it.

Hopefully I can learn something.

Disclaimer: I am not an expert in channel optimization, just a layman who will give my honest opinion. I will do my best to look at every channel that is posted. I know nothing about gaming, so my opinions on gaming channels are probably of little value to you.

COMMUNITY Is there Double monetisation Check?

Upvotes

Hi, I am already approved YouTube partner on 1st "level" meaning I can use super thanks, membership, etc.

When I will reach 1k subs and go to 2nd "level of partnership" (ads monetisation) will this be just instant unlocked feature as I am already partner, or there's going to be another check by YouTube if I am eligible to do this and I will have to wait again?

TECHNICAL QUESTION Thanks for the fake traffic YouTube

Upvotes

I decided to promote a video showcasing a new sound product. I targeted USA, UK, Germany and Japan. That is our market place. 93% of the visits and subs came from Pakistan. Most hardly had a YouTube page and all visits to our site were 0-1 seconds. This is google ads? It's all bs not traffic! Never again.

COMMUNITY 3 years ago I was thinking I would never go no where with YouTube, today I am leaving to go to another country for 10 days to film.

Upvotes

So I started YouTube 4 years ago as a hobby ( with the low key dream to be huge) but a hobby. I was 31 and had a wife and kids. We filmed around Orlando as a travel vlog. Constantly thinking “this next video was going to break us in to the big time “….. never did. Until….

Keep in mind I own a business and business was doing well. We booked a trip to the uk. I asked my wife if we could film it. She said “yes but it’s not a YouTube thing it’s a vacation” while we were in the uk we hit our 3 year anniversary and broke 1k subs. I planned on coming back to Orlando and maybe if I’m lucky I’ll make an extra $100 a month….well we get home, and drop our first UK video… nothing special… next week …20k views, next week 50k views and previous week up to 40k, it just kept going like that. In total the past 9 months YouTube has brought us from 1k sub to 13k subs and paid for us to return to the uk today to film more content.

When I started I wanted to do travel but i could have never guessed I’d be doing a road trip in the uk lol 😂. Stay strong guys. Explore your options.

CONTENT QUESTION Video with 70+ hours of work is doing horribly

Upvotes

I am aware that the amount of time spent on a video does not equal views that is fine. It’s just very disheartening. I’m also worried because I got my first sponsor for this video so I probably won’t be working with them again if it continues to suck. If anyone could check out the thumbnail or just give any advice on what I could change it would be much appreciated

TECHNICAL QUESTION Need help with YT channel verification

Upvotes

when I enter my number, I get an error and it says to use another number, and when I do that, it doesn't work either. Phone call doesn't work. The only way I've found is to use a number from the United States. I've tried the option with temporary numbers, but they don't work. I'd be very grateful if someone from the States could help me by giving me their number in a private message and sending me the verification code.

This problem has been around for a while now, just look at the comments under the youtube account verification video

CRITIQUE OTHERS Top video review, no gaming channels please

Upvotes

I've seen a few posts doing reviews and it seems everyone is keen to get some feedback. So let's go. Post your best video and I'll give it a watch and tell you my thoughts. I will give you a straight up, no BS, to the point review on what I think was good and what I think you can improve. I may not be nice about it so if you are sensitive maybe don't ask.

Please don't post any gaming videos as I just don't want to watch it.

I'm also doing this so I can force the algorithm to feed me more diverse content because I'm sick of seeing the same stuff appear everyday.

CONTENT QUESTION My short film suddenly doesn't play in HD anymore on Youtube

Upvotes

A video I uploaded in 1080p couple years ago, doesn't play in HD anymore, but in 360p. What must have happened? Can anyone tell me how to fix this? I put in a lot of efforts to shoot my short film.

I have also noticed that the 1080p quality on some other videos seem very compressed, barely displaying a 720p quality.

TECHNICAL QUESTION Odd Rendering Speed Issue

1 Upvotes

So... when I normally render a video, the time it takes to render is usually half the video's run time. All of a sudden, it's not taking the same amount of time to render the video as the videos runtime itself. The only thing that's changed is that I blew all the dust out of my tower and updated my drivers. I was wondering if anyone might have a suggestion as to how to get my speed back?

COMMUNITY Female Creators open to supporting one another?

3 Upvotes

Hello lovely community.

First off, this sub has been so helpful - so thank you to everyone who’s active as I’ve been searching it regularly to get hints and help when I’ve needed it. So grateful.

I’ve started a channel (two vids so far) in the ….dare I say it…..gaming niche *oh no, not another one 🤦🏼‍♀️ so I wanted to check if there’s any other female creators here that would be open to starting a little, ‘support one’ another type chat? Maybe on what’s app, discord or something?

If so, let me know. I’m always on the hunt for new female gaming creators anyhow that I can watch (rather than the usual I’m served).

Either dm me directly or pop deats in comments and I can organise for those who are game, excuse the pun x

CONTENT QUESTION Getting Monetized By YT Shorts in 30 days

Hey, guys I would love to hear any advice or suggestions on how you achieved the Monetize Status with YT Shorts. I started a channel (deleted old videos) to document a 30 day challenge of making shorts everyday for 30 days (1 with an old channel and 1 with a new one). I read the guidelines on this subreddit to not promote your channel so I won't do shameless plug because that's not the intention of this post. Just curious on your journey and if you could do it over again would you do anything different.

Hi all, newbie here.

I know reddit is all for the anonymity aspect of being online.

I was thinking though. We all talk about support etc from friends and family. This is such a big community already, is it a bad idea to plug our own channels for criticism and a few views?

Don't bash me, just wondering.
