Hi everyone,

Sorry if this is not the right section of the forum, but I did not know exactly where to put this.
So I've had my YouTube channel for a bit over a year now and I put my weekly videos there, which all get roughly the same amount of views. Now there's one video that I posted that gets way more views than the others and the views are even exponentially increasing. I went to the analytics page of this video and it says that the large majority of the views come from ''YouTube advertising''. When I click the question mark next to this, it says that these are ''Ad playbacks that qualify as a view''.

I'm a little puzzled. What does this mean? How come that I get these ''Ad playbacks'' for this video, but not for other ones?

Hopefully someone can explain to me a bit more how this works. Thank you in advance!
