Cold Testing
A video published in the last 7 days has too few impressions to read click-rate signal — still in early testing.

The Audience
Who is finding this channel?
Discovery phase: Suggested for Viewers — see Traffic.
Daily traffic mix
Each river is a traffic source; width follows daily views. Hover a stream to highlight its share over the last few days, or tap to open that source’s detail page.
Algorithmic dependency
What share of recent views came from sources where the viewer chose to come back (Direct, Channel Page, Playlist, End Screen, Link). The complementary share is algorithmic discovery (Browse, Suggested, Search). The ratio drifts as a channel matures; both extremes have legitimate channel patterns.
Persistence and replacement
Each week, what share of last week’s viewer mix came back versus how much of the mix is new. Compares the (source, country) buckets that delivered views in consecutive weeks.

The Pattern
What repeats across the catalog?
What the top quartile shares
A wide retention spread
Top-quartile retention sits at 8025.0% versus 1295.0% for the bottom quartile — about 6.2× apart across 24 videos.
A wide split between retention tiers often reflects different formats or topics in the catalog — some videos are holding attention, others aren't. Watch the per-video retention list for which sit where.
Top-views videos and top retention sit apart
None of the 6 top-views videos with tracked retention sit in this channel's top retention quartile (top 6 of 24).
Views and retention can move together when the catalog is consistent in topic or format, or apart when different videos draw different audiences — the overlap names what is, not why.

The Coda
What this data doesn’t tell you.
Is this channel normal?
This site can’t answer that — no one channel can. What it shows you is one real channel, honestly. Every number here is real; nothing has been smoothed or flattered. Compare silently to whatever channels you study most often, and draw your own conclusions.
Real “normal” would come from comparing against many channels at the same stage in the same niche. That’s a future direction; it’s not something one channel’s data can answer today. Country breakdowns — views, average watch, net subscribers — are shown above. Click rate by country isn’t, since YouTube doesn’t report how often a thumbnail was shown by country. Device-type and subscribed-vs-non-subscribed splits aren't shown in this public view.
Half of this channel's subscribers came from 2 of 25 videos. Concentration like this is common at small catalogs and is descriptive, not a verdict.

Today's reading
7 days ago a belief flipped.
“High click-through-rate drives video success more than high retention.”
Most of the above is drawn from 10 to 30 videos. That’s enough to see shapes, not enough to call trends reliable.
The Pattern chapter is the most fragile at this scale — treat anything there as a sketch of a trend, not a finding.
