Analyzing my YouTube stats (and sharing them with you)

I’ve always wanted a YouTube channel to go hang in hand with this blog.  I started doing it last year and it’s kind of cool that it’s happening.  It’s not easy for me to make videos. They require an extra level of preparation and focus that doesn’t always come together to make a guaranteed, great video.  I have thrown away bad takes so many times.  I often have to try different lines of speech and adjusting the tripod and framing so it’s just right takes time too.  And then the worst is when you take a video but the wind is all muffling it out.But anyway, I really enjoy it because it’s a lot more dynamic and I get to share fun information through video!

I (very creatively) named my YouTube channel ‘Antranik DotOrg‘ because that’s what I call my website too.

I noticed that since the start of the year, there has been a gradual increase in the number of views of some of my videos.  Namely, the dragon flags and L-sits.  On any good day, I’m getting a few hundred views of the L-sit tutorial and almost a hundred of the Dragon Flag tutorial. That’s pretty cool! And there’s an upward trend since the start of the year. I attribute it to my L-sit video being featured on fitloop.co thanks to Phi from the bwf reddit community recommending that it be placed there as the superior tutorial.  Thanks guys!

And the number of subscribers (shown below) are interesting only cause it’s nice to see where the bulk of my subscribers are from in the world.  They’re not always in keeping with the population, either.  But I’m sure language has something to do with it, because the top four countries all know English.  It’s cool to see I have 13 subscribers from New Zealand cause that place only has a population of 4 million. (The New Zealanders must love me!)  To put it in perspective, Brazil has a population of 200 million (50 times the population of New Zealand) and I only have 16 subscribers (3 more than N.Z.) from there.  But again, it’s probably the language barrier.
