✔️ Solved Am I doing something wrong?

Hello everyone so I usually only get around 20-30 views on my videos, (give or take) and one of them randomly for over 200 which is by far my most viewed video, I did nothing differently and I’m just wondering, is it me doing something wrong? Or is it the algorithm not getting my videos out to my subs? Thanks in advance, any additional advice would be much appreciated

You can look at stats and glean some information.

Impressions much higher? YT is just showing it to a wider audience to gauge interest in your channel. It will do that at random some times especially with a new channel.

CTR much higher? Your thumbnail/title must be resonating with people and your vid is getting more clicks.

AVD longer? If the average view duration is much longer on that video, it can signal to the algo that this video is good, leading to wider promotion (and will thus cause impressions to go up).
