Analytics, Retention & Metrics
Views per playlist start
Also called: playlist views per start
Under the playlist tab in Studio, this is the average number of videos viewed per playlist start. It answers something plain view counts cannot: once someone begins, do they carry on?
A figure hovering around 1 means the playlist is doing nothing autoplay would not have done anyway. Higher figures come from playlists built as a sequence, where each video assumes the one before it and the order was chosen. Deleting helps more than adding here. A tight playlist of six strong videos will out-hold a bin of forty that nobody finishes.
