hello

i like to buy some views and cant figure out what is the difference between normal and high retentiones views.
since english is not my first language i translated it but it does not make much sense.

i think i found out that high retention views are form social pages like Facebook but i am not sure.

so the questions
-are they better ?
-where are they from?

thanks

Normal Views: The watch time will be less than or equal to 30 seconds max.
Retention views: Your video will be watched in full no matter how long it is.

I have tested both and in my opinion, retention views are better than normal views. So go for retention views as the price difference between both of them is not too much.

As stated before, go for high retention views. The views will usually watch your video from 75%-100% and help you rank faster and higher.

I have the same question. Views are views whether watched in full or half. Does it really make any difference ?

Yes, it makes a difference and the difference has been explained in the previous posts.

Yeah, if you just refresh video page every 5 seconds counter will go up but it will stuck at 301, you need at least 300 real views to unblock it. Iin analytics you can see "estimated time watched", i guess videos with higher numbers will rank higher.

High Retention are not always needed but be sure it is much easier with them
