Who are the top 10 trending YouTube channels in South Africa?

By views gained over roughly the last 30 days, as of November 5, 2026: 1. Ryan HD (640,412,261), 2. Wian (396,849,437), 3. Brazen Kidd TV (354,383,326), 4. Gotham Moments (235,423,473), 5.

How is this ranking calculated?

Each channel's latest observed public total view count minus the total view count vidIQ recorded 30 days earlier, falling back to 29 or 31 days when the exact day is missing, highest first. Each row shows its actual observed dates in UTC. A channel created during the period can count from an inferred zero; its observed start stays unavailable. The list covers channels whose country on YouTube is South Africa.

How often is this list updated?

Once a day. vidIQ last updated the figures on this page on November 5, 2026.

Why is a channel missing from this list?

A channel is left out when vidIQ has no total view count for it from the start of the period, when its public subscriber count is unavailable, or when vidIQ does not track it yet. So is a channel whose country on YouTube is not South Africa.
