be depressing if your channel is stagnant or not growing at all. In this video, you'll learn 5
ways to check the growth of your YouTube channel, so you'll know what kind of content to make next.
How do you check your YouTube channel growth in the last 28 days? If I click on
analytics and YouTube studio and look under the overview tab, YouTube says looking good.
Your channel got about same number of views as usual. Your channel got 214,236 views,
similar to the 196,000 to 240,000 it usually gets in 28 days. The views, watch time,
subscribers, and estimated revenue is about the same as in the last 28 days.
Let me know the comments below, if your channel is growing, stagnant, or not growing at all.
Later on, I'll discuss why your channel is stagnant or not growing. Stay tuned.
If I click on the last 90 days and I can see how many views I got in the last 90 days,
if I click on the last 365 days, I can see how many views my channel got in the last
365 days. If I click advanced mode in YouTube analytics, then click compare to, I can compare
the selected period to the proceeding period. As in seeing my channel grows as much the same
in the last 28 days as previous 28 days. How do you know what content is working?
YouTube now shows you the top 10 videos of your YouTube channel, which videos are currently
growing your YouTube channel, and what other channels are your audience watching. You can
also see when your viewers are on YouTube and which country most of your viewers come from.
Returning viewers and new viewers. New viewers are viewers that discovered your channel for
the first time in the selected period, where it's 28 days or 90 days. Returning viewers are viewers
who already watched your channel previously and return to watch in the selected time period,
where it 98 days or 90 days. Click on your audience tab, YouTube analytics, then select
your date range of 28 days or 90 days, and then look at the returning viewers versus new viewers.
In the last 28 days, I got 5,905 new viewers and I got 694 returning viewers. Ideally, you want
to create a balance of content that attract new viewers as well as content for returning viewers.
Later, I'll discuss what kind of content you should make next, to grow your YouTube channel.
How did your latest video contribute to the growth of your YouTube channel? If I click
on the dashboard on YouTube analytics, I can see my latest video performance.
This video ranked number two out of my top 10 videos in the first two days and four hours
compared to my typical video performance. When you're making a new video, try to outperform
your last videos so your channel will grow. You should strive to be in the top three videos
and ranking for views as well as increase your views, impressions click-through rate,
and average view duration for that next video. Here's how to compare how each video performed
in the last 24 hours. If you click on Analytics, then click on advanced mode, click compare to,
then click 24 hours video performance, you'll be able to identify the top performing videos
on your channel in the first 24 hours. The views, the impressions, impressions click-through rate,
average view duration, and average percentage viewed. This will give
you an idea what kind of content to make next so it performs well on your YouTube channel.
Why is your YouTube channel stagnant or not growing? Number one, viewers' interest changes
over time. For example, when I started my YouTube channel, I was just making web design tutorials
because I was a professional web designer. Over time my content evolved by making tutorials on
how to grow your audience on YouTube. This meant the people who initially subscribed
from a web design content no longer interested in my future content. Ideally, you want to build a
core audience of viewers and subscribers that keep returning to watch more of your videos.
Number two, creating content your subscribers are no longer interested in.
If you only create content that you're interested in, but not your viewers and subscribers,
your channel won't grow. The more you know about your target audience, the easier it is to create
the right content for them. Click the link in the description to watch my video on how to
identify your target audience on YouTube. Number three, your content doesn't engage
your viewers. If you don't keep your viewers engaged right in your video,
it's less likely that YouTube will recommend your content to other people's watch pages. This starts
by creating a compelling title and thumbnail. If nobody clicks on your thumbnail, then nobody's
going to watch your video content. Click the link description to watch my video on how to write
titles for YouTube videos that everyone loves. What kind of content should you make next to
grow your YouTube channel? YouTube says ''when the topic, title, and thumbnail of a video
attracts more of the regular viewers of your channel, it's more likely to be recommended
to viewers watching similar videos on Home and Up Next.'' Therefore, study the topic,
title, thumbnail, and audience retention of your top videos to see what kind content you
need to make next to grow your channel. Ideally, you want your regular viewers
and subscribers to keep returning to watch more of your video content. If it increases core audience,
then YouTube will recommend your videos to more people's watch pages, resulting
in further growth of your YouTube channel. Let me ask you a question. Do you want to
