What kind of video is charting

The chart ranks single videos, but the mix is the useful part. A market where Music and Gaming hold most slots rewards different formats than one led by News or Entertainment.

How to read a YouTube trending chart

It ranks velocity, not view counts

A video with 30,000 views can sit above one with 3 million. YouTube weighs how fast views arrive, how new the video is and how it compares with the channel’s recent uploads. Views per hour is the closest visible proxy.

Every country is a separate chart

YouTube builds a different chart for each market and has no worldwide list. The chart reflects where viewers are watching, not where the creator lives.

Read the shape, not the single video

A charting video is a race that started before you saw it. The category mix, the median age and the breakout creators tell you what this market rewards and how early you can still be.

Turn the chart into your next video

The chart tells you what already won. These tools tell you what is rising, what your audience searches for and which videos in your niche are beating their channel average.
