Watch time shows how long people stay and watch your video. The longer they watch, the more they like it. Platforms push videos with more watch time more often, helping you reach more people.

1. Watch Time Shows Interest

This shows how many people watched your video all the way through. If most people finish it, your video is good. If not, you might need to make the content more interesting or engaging to hold attention.

2. View-Through Rate Counts

CTR shows how many people clicked on your video after seeing it. If the CTR is low, it means the title or thumbnail isn't strong enough to catch attention. Improving those can lead to more viewers.

3. Click-Through Rate Matters

Engagement includes likes, comments, and shares. More engagement means people enjoyed the video and wanted to interact with it. High engagement helps your video spread organically and increases visibility.

4. Look At Engagement Rate

This shows how long viewers watch on average. If the average is low, viewers may not be interested in the content. A high average means people are staying engaged with your video from start to finish.

5. Average View Time

Impressions show how many times your video was shown, while views show how many clicked and watched it. If there's a large difference, it might mean your thumbnail or title needs to be more compelling.

6. Impressions vs Real Views

Conversion rate shows how many viewers took action after watching—such as signing up or making a purchase. It helps measure the real-world success of your video beyond just views or likes.

7. Conversion Rate Helps Too

This tells you how often people share your video. When videos are shared, it means they resonated with the viewer. More shares lead to more organic views, helping your content reach a wider audience.
