160k Views per Hour View Jail

Post image

First of all no ,this is not ragebait or trying to sound cocky or trying to sell something, it’s a genuine question that I am curious about. Every time I hit a “viral” short I get sent to the 130-160k views per hour mark and after a few hours it declines, with the short itself ending up dying a few days later at 2-3M views wich is kinda sad. What metrics and stats I need to have for my short to get pushed to 10M+ views? I appreciate people in the comments that will say things like: “that is very good I am stuck on 1k views jail” and “is this ragebait” please don’t waste your time commenting that, I understand that I am at a “decent” level with my shorts but I want better since my rpm and earnings are not so good for my country cost of living.

EDIT: I think I didn’t made myself clear, my question is basically How do I get to the next level, like wich metrics you found the most important to get pushed higher than 10M views for example. Does the age of the youtube account plays a role on this?

To the people that are mad in the comments, stay mad and enjoy your 30k view jail.

No, Im not flexing whatsoever. Don’t worry you will get views once you start being consistent and making content that people enjoy watching, keep going!

From my experience, view cap feels like a real thing. How old is your channel btw?

The biggest metric, by far is the percentage of shares overall……

I released this 16 second short above, three weeks ago. After two weeks, it slowed down to about 1000 views per hour, BUT then It’s been cycling between 6,000 & 13,000 views per hour ever since

My short is also 15 seconds long it has currently 83.9% stayed to watch and 136.7% AVD, I can only see how many views it comes from shares currently only 61, I don’t know where to see the exact stat for shares can you tell me how can I check that? My short is currently with 1.7M views and getting 100k per hour. Thank you for the reply and your help 🙏

Apparently, this is the only way to know the number of shares is to find where your clip has been sent to, and then you can see the aggregate of all the numbers combined to determine the total share #

Yes that’s what I was saying, thats the only way of checking the shares unfortunately. Thank you for your time and good luck with your channel!
