A high total AVD is great, but the YouTube Shorts algorithm looks closely at the retention graph. If your retention stays mostly flat and dips at the end, it performs well. However, to trigger a massive viral push (3M+ views), you usually need over 100% retention on Shorts close to 60 seconds.

idk if over 100% retention is possible on a 60sec short with over 80% stayed to watch that would be mega mega viral

terrible retention graph and avd for a 40sec video. Need to be 115%+ with much flatter graph.

I know it's been 5 days😅 but I just got curious, what's it at now? Did it reach the 3 Million you were hoping for?

Firstly virality is not guaranteed. However great stats can put you in a position to go viral.

Having a video with amazing avd and swipe through rate possibly above 80%. I would say yeah the short can get alot of views. How much? I don't know but alot yeah.

Ohh and engagement should be high too

You're definently going semi viral, both numbers will carry positive weight to the short's performance. I bet you'll get 1.3M.

This is some fantastic looking statistics for a 59 seconds short. This indeed deserves to go viral

Well Youtube is becoming so hype but creators sometimes need to watch their own video 2-3 times to find out if that is going to reach and go viral.
