Audit a YouTube channel: what actually drives its views?
Creators guess; analysts check. Build a dataset of one channel’s last 30 videos — views, length, title style, upload gap — and find what actually correlates with performance on that channel.
Steps
- 01Pick a mid-size channel you watch (not a megastar — patterns are clearer). Collect its last 30 videos into a CSV: title, views, duration, upload date, and features you code yourself (question title? number in title? thumbnail has face?).
- 02Normalise for age: views-per-day since upload beats raw views.
- 03Analyse: which features correlate with views-per-day? Where are the outliers, and what’s special about them?
- 04Write the memo you’d send the creator: 3 evidence-backed recommendations.
Tools: YouTube, Google Sheets, ChatGPT or Gemini for analysis help
Your submission
Submit the channel, the 30-video CSV with your coded features, the analysis, and a chart. The feature-coding is your real work — AI can’t watch the videos for you.
