What is YouTube Analytics?
YouTube Analytics is the best way for YouTube creators to measure their performance on the platform. You can find Analytics in the YouTube Studio dashboard. YouTube Analytics gives you an overview of your channel and videos and shows you real-time metrics to help you boost your channel on YouTube.
Those looking to explore the platform should start with setting up a YouTube channel and then creating a YouTube Studio account.
How does YouTube Analytics work?
Log in to your YouTube Studio account and click on the Analytics tab. You will be able to see an overview of your channel that displays a graph of the number of views, watch time, and subscribers.
To get a more detailed report on your video’s and channel’s performance, you can click on the “see more” button. You can further filter the options according to the data you are looking for. Additionally, you can also download the report to get a detailed report of your channel’s analytics.
How creators can use this data to their benefit
The important question for creators is, how is this update beneficial to them?
