Is 10 views on Youtube in a 3 week period good or bad?

 

It's tough to say definitively if 10 views in 3 weeks is "good" or "bad" without more context, as it heavily depends on several factors:

1. What kind of content are you creating and where are you posting it?

• Platform: 10 views on a niche blog post might be different from 10 views on a TikTok or YouTube video. Some platforms naturally have higher reach.

• Niche: If your content is very niche (e.g., advanced theoretical physics), 10 engaged views might be excellent, whereas for general entertainment, it's quite low.

• Content Type: A short-form video on TikTok often gets more initial views than a long-form, in-depth YouTube tutorial.

2. Are you a brand new creator?

• If you've just started, 10 views is a start! Every major creator began with zero. The most important thing is that you've put something out there and people have seen it.

• For new channels, early numbers are often very low. Some new YouTubers report getting 0 views on their first videos, and others might get 30-50 views in the first week.

3. What are your goals?

• If your goal is to share something with a small, specific group of friends or family, then 10 views might be perfectly adequate.

• If your goal is to build a large audience and potentially monetize, 10 views in 3 weeks is a very slow start and indicates a need for strategic adjustments.

4. What have you done to promote it?

• Did you share it with anyone? On social media? With friends?

• Did you optimize it for search (e.g., YouTube SEO with good titles, descriptions, and tags)?

General Benchmarks & What to Consider:

• Early stages are often slow: It's common for new content to struggle to gain traction initially. Don't get discouraged!

• Quality over Quantity (initially): While consistent posting is important for long-term growth, especially at the beginning, focus on making the best possible content you can. One high-quality, valuable piece of content has a better chance of gaining views over time than many low-quality ones.

• Focus on engagement, not just views: Are those 10 views from people who watched the whole thing? Did they like, comment, or share? High engagement from a small number of viewers can be more valuable than many fleeting views.

• Learn and Adapt: Look at your analytics (if available). Where did the views come from? How long did people watch? Use this information to improve your next piece of content.

• Consistency: Regularly creating and publishing content helps you learn, improve, and gives algorithms more opportunities to show your content.

In summary:

If you're just starting out, 10 views is not a failure. It means your content is being seen by someone. The key is to analyze why you got those views, how engaged those viewers were, and what you can do to improve and reach more people in the future.
