Your Own YouTube Channel Audit 24/7
Have you ever wanted your own personal YouTube consultant, ready and available 24/7? We thought you might… so we built one!
The YouTube Channel audit tool from vidIQ is one of the most powerful video marketing tools you can access.
It quickly shows you how your content is performing, what’s working, what’s not working, and what issues need your attention.
Clicking on the ‘Channel Audit’ button on the left-hand toolbar of your YouTube screen or within the vidIQ extension toolbar navigation dropdown will open up the feature, which includes 5 different tools.
Here are just a few stats you can access…
How Your YouTube Channel is Performing
The first tool shows you how you are doing based on the last 30 days by default. You can hover over each section to get more detailed information.
What's Working on YouTube: Content to Double Down On
This section shows what's working for your channel based on Views per Hour (VPH), engagement rate, YouTube subscribers gained, competitor stats, total and average Watch Time, top audience retention, top YouTube Playlists, and traffic being sent your way by videos uploaded by other channels.
What's Not Working on YouTube
This section shows the videos are doing the worst based on lowest Watch Time, lowest like ratios, lowest retention, lowest views, and the videos losing the most subscribers. You can use this information to determine if you should still keep making this type of content.
What To Fix to Get Your Channel Up to Speed
This section of the Channel Audit tool highlights if your video titles, descriptions, or tags are too short or long. It will also point out whether you're missing any cards, end screens, thumbnails, or Playlists. How useful is that?

What’s REALLY Trending on YouTube
YouTube’s own Trending Page is an awesome resource, but does it really reflect what’s actually trending on the platform.
Not always, no, which is why vidIQ’s ‘Most Viewed’ tool is vital for any content creator and publisher.
Understanding what the most-viewed videos are on YouTube at any one time can be a goldmine for any creator looking for content inspiration over a range of genres and categories.
The Most Viewed search filters allow you to discover only the video content you’re interested in.
So, if you’re not particularly interested in cooking videos or children’s content, but are very interested in Apex legends, you can dive into that category via the tool.
You can also break down your search by views per hour, views, or engagements depending on the information you need based on videos from the last six months, from the last week, or from videos trending right now.
Oh, and did I mention you can also sort by location and YouTube Channel size?
