Read your stats and grow

Viewers, retention per episode, where your audience comes from: how to read your creator stats and decide what to do next.

The numbers that matter

Find where people leave

Look at the viewers per episode. A small drop at each episode is normal. A big drop after one episode tells you exactly where to look: a slow opening, a confusing scene or a missing hook at the end.

Fix the episode where people leave first: it helps every episode after it.

See what brings people in

Every visit through your tracked links is counted, along with the sign-ups it brings. Compare your channels: if TikTok teasers bring more viewers than your YouTube descriptions, make more teasers.

A monthly routine

Change one thing at a time: if you change everything, you won't know what worked.

Listen to your viewers

Ratings and comments tell you what people feel. Reply to comments, thank the people who tip you and follow other creators: a community of creators who support each other grows faster.
