Can you see who views your youtube profile

YouTube collects data from its viewers. This information is useful for developing an understanding of the types of people who watch specific videos. If you want to know about the people watching your videos, you’re in the right place.

In this article, we’ll explain how to use the YouTube Studio app from your desktop. This will help you gain essential insights into who is viewing your content.

YouTube has a built-in analytics tool accessible from “YouTube Analytics.” Via the “Audience” tab, you can find out specific information about the people who watched the videos on your channel, including gender, location, and age range.

Age and Gender

The information in this report tells you the age ranges, gender, and the length of time any individual watched your video. By comparing the results with your other videos, you can see which groups of people are enjoying your content the most.

This is valuable information if you want to appeal to a particular group. To find this report, sign in to your “YouTube Studio” account, then follow these steps:

1. Enter a search for the video you want to know about.
2. Click on the “Analytics” graph icon just below the result.
   
   
3. Select the “Audience” tab at the top.
   
   
4. Find “Age and gender” and click on “SEE MORE.”
   
   
5. At the top right, click on the downward pointing arrow to select a date range.

7. When you’re done, click on the “X” at the top right to close the report.
   
   

Top Geographies

This report tells you which part of the world people are watching your video from. You can drill down on this information even more and find out things like the most popular device types used to watch your content.

It is particularly useful if you want to focus on growing a US-based audience but your stats show that most people are watching from another country. For instance, you could look into why your videos appeal more to people in other countries.

The report can also be viewed by age range and gender amongst other demographics. To find the “Top geography” report via “YouTube Studio”, here’s what you need to do:

1. Sign in to your “YouTube Studio” account.
   
   
2. Search for the video you wish to find out about.
3. Just below the result, click the “Analytics” graph icon.
   
   
4. Select the “Audience” tab at the top.
   
   
5. Towards the bottom, at “Top geography” click on “SEE MORE.”
   
   
6. To select a date range, at the top right, click on the downward pointing arrow.
   
   
7. To filter the data, click on the “Filter” icon at the top left.
   
   
8. When you’re done, click on the “X” at the top right to close the report.
