How do you get retention??

 

[mistercd3]

retention is base on how long people watch your video, if they watch your video from start to finish your retention will high and that's good.

so, 2min retention is basically just 2 minute views?

2 minutes retention means the average time that people spent on your video is 2 minutes.
If the video has 1000 views
Your watch time is 2*1000 = 2000

2 minutes retention on a 2 minute video would be 100% retention. That's the reason people get high retention views when boosting their videos, so that they have a high retention rate and the views look realistic. So in the end, you want high retention.

Don't make long videos if you want to get better retention.

If I have a 30-minute video and buy 70%-80% views on a social panel does that mean it will say each view viewed roughly 22-25 mins then?
Does that help rank a video better?

Also i get i asked you a shit load of questions but i am noob

That's correct, but ranking video on youtube is not all about views.

What is it about these days?

 

[Akuchi]

I switched from 10 minutes vids to uploading 3 minute vids once a day and boosting with HR 3 minute retention views.

 

[Ilias]

What is it about these days?

A lot of factors, but the most important ones are:
-Channel authority
-Watch time
-Retention
-Engagement (likes, coments, shares, subscribs after watching the video)
And all should be look natural on youtube eyes.
