What is "Average View Duration"?
Average View Duration measures the average amount of time viewers spend watching a video before clicking away or leaving. This metric provides insight into the overall engagement and interest of viewers in the content being presented. The longer the average view duration, the more engaged the audience is with the content. It can also help creators identify areas of the video where viewers may be dropping off, allowing them to optimize their content for better engagement.
Example: An educational channel wants to optimize their video lengths for higher engagement. They use the Average View Duration metric to see which videos keep viewers engaged for longer and adjust future videos accordingly.
