Have to say same thing as "Shinyvictreebell". Since September views and subscribtions dopped on work/school days, whereas weekends are skyrocketing on those stats. Your drops are insanely high though. About 40% views i get come from related videos, still, no huge drops in that area even after September. YouTube just works like this, one day you are being promoted by them for free and then they leave you on your own. You should check next to your videos on play page, do you see your videos as related ones or some one elses?[DOUBLEPOST=1412605058,1412604204][/DOUBLEPOST]Sorry for double post. Ok so i have reviewed your socialblade stats, as it appears you have received many (i mean MANY) subscribers on the begginging of the September, and now returned to your ways as you used to before the spike, this looks normal, you can't expect really these amounts of subscribers coming non stop, it ends sooner or later. And about the views... not quite sure about that, looking for vidstatsx it looks normal, recent videos getting pretty much same amount of views as those that are 1 month old. I see that you have couple of more popular videos out there, drop in views might be related to this as well, if popular videos getting less views in time (also normal), it affects your other video views since it generates lots off related video traffic (at least this how it works on my channel). All in all i think your subscribers comming in normal proportions, and views will just get settled at some point.

Thanks for the great analysis, you are most probably right. Although I think there should be a difference in exposure when you have 50k subs and when you have 100k+ subs. I mean, the more you have, the more exposure you get, usually.

Do you know, by any chance, how to predict peaks of traffic? Is there any pattern or predictable way to foresee increase/decrease of views? I am asking because I have had the experience before that if you publish a good video when there is a peak, one can increase that peak significantly.

Thanks again.

If i'd know a way to predict it i'd have bigger channel Unfortunately i don't, youtube itself suggests to post a video with a topic before it even becomes viral on internet and hope for best. To tell you the truth, the bigger you are the higher chances are that you will be left with less exposure by youtube since you generate lot of traffic on your own already and youtube keeps pushing other channels, as someone said i think it's part of their algorithm.

Great. Thank you very much for the info, it has been very useful and enlightening. You seem to have great insights about how YouTube works. I've been looking at your channel. Your concept is quite original: "really long gameplays". Also, no commentary? Because I have a Spanish channel, but I receive a considerable amount of traffic from video game lovers (who doesn't, this is YouTube, right?), maybe they'd be interested in your videos. You think?

Cheers!

Hard to tell who people are interested into now these days, i'm still shy with my english skill, so no commentaries at this time But i definitely plan to add this into my gameplay videos! I had reviewed your videos while checking for reason of your stat drops, i will add it to my featured channel box (First to be added! ), though i do not generate lots of traffic like you, only about 200+ channel views per day
