We gather, process, and present you with the information you need to make better decisions with your thumbnails and titles so that your videos organically perform better!How can Thumblytics help me take advantage of the YouTube algorithm?
Whether your video is recommended by YouTube is influenced by a range of factors. Of the factors that you can impact, the two largest are: (i) CTR (Click-through Rate), and (ii) AVD (Average View Duration). CTR can be thought of as the proportion of people who click your video after seeing it. Thumblytics helps you run quick and easy surveys to help you choose the thumbnail and title with the highest CTR for your video.How long does it take to run a test?
The more responses you are trying to collect, the longer the test will take. It usually takes us around 30 minutes to collect and process data from 100 respondents. However, this can vary slightly depending on the time you run your experiment (e.g. turnaround time may be longer on weekends as less of our respondents are online).Have another question?
