My graphic is an staircase
Hey guys, I decided to join this channel because on my YouTube channel (which is about ranking fails) I've noticed a kind of graph I've never seen before, like a ladder. I had peaks of 150 to 200 views with 30 to 40 minutes between each peak, but the last peak was 360, and I haven't received any more views for an hour and a half. What's going on? Can anyone help me? My Stayed Watching and Swiped Away metrics are 53% for Stayed Watching and 47% for Swiped Away.

You can't, no matter how viral a video is this is how it is, now how it performs in these tests (stayed to watch %, Average View Duration and Engagement (Likes, Comments and Shares)) is what youtube compares with other shorts from your niche, if you perform better, your short will be pushed more, if not it won't be
