Video-sharing app YouTubbe, a tech giant google owned company too, has revealed the tool “Analytics for Artists”, furthermore YouTube Shorts-related data to the Total Reach metric, facilitating artists through all data which is generating from the audiences who are watching, likes, and shares a particular short.
“As of this month, ‘Analytics for Artists’ Total Reach metrics from YouTube include fan-uploaded Shorts. This new metric shows how many people your music is reaching across all formats, making it the most comprehensive snapshot of the size of an artist’s audience on YouTube,” Lyor Cohen, YouTube’s global head of Music, said in a blog post.
The Total Reach metric previously only included official content uploaded by the artist and long-form videos uploaded by fans.
Moreover, Cohen mentioned that in January this year, fan-created Shorts increased the average artist’s audience of unique viewers by more than 80 percent.
In addition, artists who are active on Shorts saw more than 50 percent of their new channel subscribers coming directly from their Shorts posts on average.
The company further said that it also “created a brand new Songs section in Analytics to help artists see how fans are listening to their music or creating with it, across all video formats, all in one place”.
