    Does Audience Retention matter?

    So, I've made 4 videos so far on my new channel and currently my Audience retention is 41%. I'm not sure if this is good or not? What is everyone else's for comparison? and does it even matter towards your videos being pushed a little more for example? Love to know what everyone thinks!

    How can I increase my vlogs' audience retention?

    I make vlogs and mix the style of normal vlogs and cinematic b-roll. Sort of like peter mckinnon but not copying him. Anyway, I have a channel average of 1 minute retention and I feel that is sub-par. How can I increase it. I have watched plenty of audience retention videos but they all talk...

    Do you think it's good for channels with very little to no audience retention to start over? I've been wondering for a while now if I should just start over, I have 179 subscribers and demographics show that only about 10 of my subscribers even watch my videos. I know Ethan from CrankGameplays...

    Can OLD VIDEOS hurt my channel?

    Hello everybody, For long time I have tried to find why I don't get many subscribers or views and now I came with an idea that might be true. I have about 150 videos that I make for the last 3 years that I have my channel. Some old videos they don't have many views and have a low audience...

    Audience retention

    im always getting comments saying that people love my videos/series but then my audience retention is never really that high under analytics. I mean I do get numbers that watch the whole videos, but a good majority don't. Should I focus on the analytics as much as I do? I don't get it

    The First 10 Seconds Are The Most Important, Right?

    I hear that 'the first ten seconds of the video are the most important' quite a bit when I ask questions about audience retention.

    Does watching your own video to the end affect your retention positively?

    I have a habit of always watching my videos to the end when it's already uploaded to YouTube, but does this affect the retention of your video? Does it do any good? Anybody else who does this? :p Thanks. -James

    Let's talk audience retention times

    I try not to look at these part of the analytics (yes I know it is important) because it can just be depressing. After you work hard on a video, you don't want to find out the average watch duration is a low percentage... So. Should the retention times be cause for a alarm. These are averages...

    Audience Retention. What do you aim for?

    I've always been curious what other people strive for with their audience retention. Obviously 100% is the best, but thats not realistic. So what to you guys strive for?

    So, how long are your gameplay videos?

    Was looking at the audience retention graph of one of my videos and saw this (picture below). Apart from the fact that the introduction of the particular video used for the graph is really bad (hence the sharp dropoff at the beginning) the things that strikes me the most is the falloff around...

    Should YouTube have an 'Active subscribers' button?

    I know there is so much emphasis we place on gaining subscribers. We celebrate the milestones and YouTube also reward us with plaques. However we all know that having 'X' amount of subscribers doesn't mean that is how many people are watching each of your uploads. So I was wondering if it...
