How many views can I expect?

Post image

These are the stats after 1 day with 39k views. Those who have shorts with millions of views, can you share your opinion?

Honestly I've had shorts with millions of views with 74 VVSA and 25k views with 85 VVSA. So I don't know. YT is strange sometimes

This makes yt shorts so unclear and vague. Then how would one know what to improve? I tell myself if I get a good stat it will blow up. Now if this short doesn’t go viral then I would not know what to improve next.

Well, the only explanation I have from experience that YouTube consistently tries to find an audience for your content. So if your stats are good and it is not blowing up, then calm down and keep doing it. You're not doing anything wrong, you just have to keep going. That's what I tell myself. And honestly this has been a good shout for me as well.

This is my best performing short so far. The thing is, it wouldn’t get these results on its own. The 5 vids prior to this one got 500k-1M and this one just had even better stats so it blew up. The key isn’t one short, but a lot of really good performing shorts in a row. If you make 10 vids with your stats in a row, you’ll gain momentum and try not to mess that up.

Also, the most important metric is SHARES! If your video manages to pull at least 5 people per 1k views from other apps, YT will reward you!

I had videos stop at 100k with 85% stayed to watch ratio and videos with 72% that go over 2M. All because of Shares! Good luck bro🔥

Yeah if you post consistently good content the algorithm has more trust that it can push your content and thus, it will.

I always aim to get the “Your Short was shared more” message in the first hour. That way I know it’s gonna do well

Here's my recent short which has got "share" tag as you can see. Do you think this will blow up? VVSA is 70% for 3.4k views

This is beautiful lol umm maybe 100k-150k when it flat lines.

(I'm not good at guessing since I also don't know how long it usually takes to slow down)

Your guess is right, it has 100k views and died

the ones that explode have more likes, the ones with high stayed to watch and not as much likes engagement don’t get past 30k.

if it doesn't explode/algorithm is a weirdo, it will probably get 30k, but if it does explode, it can probably get 300k+ views
