How it’s calculated
We read the channel’s public statistics and its 30 most recent uploads through YouTube’s official Data API, then work out:
- Average and median views of those uploads — the median shows a typical video, without one viral hit skewing it.
- Engagement rate = (likes + comments) ÷ views across those videos.
- Views per subscriber = average views ÷ subscribers — how much of the audience a typical upload reaches.
- Upload pace from the dates of those uploads, and the days since the last one.
What to look at first
Compare the average with the median. If the average is far higher, the channel depends on a few big hits and most videos perform much lower. If they’re close, performance is consistent — usually a better sign for sponsors and for steady growth.
Views per subscriber
Subscriber counts build up over years, but not every subscriber still watches. Views per subscriber shows how much of that audience a typical new upload reaches. A channel with fewer subscribers but a high figure often has a more engaged audience than a bigger, older channel.
Shorts and long-form
The analysis tells you how many recent uploads are 60 seconds or shorter. Shorts usually get more views and fewer comments each, so a channel that mixes both will show different averages from one that only posts long videos.
Where the numbers come from
Everything comes from YouTube’s public API — the same numbers anyone can see on the channel. Some channels hide their exact subscriber count; YouTube then only shares a rounded figure, and we tell you when that’s the case.
Tips to improve your numbers
- Compare your median views over time — it’s the clearest sign of whether a typical video is improving.
- Look at the top recent videos for patterns in topic, title and length.
- If views per subscriber is falling, test new formats before posting more of the same.
- Use the rank checker to see which of your videos show up in YouTube search.
