Best time to upload and other strategies?

Go to analytics, then to realtime analytics. On the left you'll see the views you've got over the last 48 hours. Look around for a peak time when you got the most views. Mouse over that time, that's your peak time.

Derral Eves suggests releasing videos 3 hours before your peak time in order to get the most views. I've been doing this for a while now (I actually have two peak times, separated by a few hours, so I release my videos 3 hours before the first) and it's been working well for me :)

Good advice i'll have to look into that too!
 
After checking my realtime views, I found the perfect timing and schedule. Thanks!

I've got one more question. Is it true that YouTube places you in the algorithm once you hit 100 subs? Because I'm at 94 and if that's true, I'm psyched! :D

mm dont think so u get ranked if u get more than 500 views the first day than youtube gonne promote it to others
 
I highly recommend you try TubeBuddy, it has a really cool feature where you can check exactly which day and between which hours you get the most views! Good luck :)
 
Hey guys, I just joined the forum, because I thought you guys seem pretty cool. You all seem experienced in YouTube, and I'd really like it if I can have some advice when it comes to YouTube and growth.

I've had a channel for less than a month, and I'm at around 86 subscribers. My videos usually average around 100 views, and I think that's really good, considering I've been on YouTube for around a month. However, I'm struggling to find the perfect timing(s) to upload my videos, because I noticed that I don't get much views the first few hours after my upload.

Also, what can I do if I live in an area (Dubai) where there isn't much YouTubers I could collaborate with? How could I reach out to more people?

Oh, and by the way, I just had my first 2 dislikes, ever. YAY!
You live in dubai that would be the best location for me to get some content for my channel! :O

There is forums here on yttalk made for people like you to find collaborate partners ;)[DOUBLEPOST=1489617955,1489617835][/DOUBLEPOST]
At first I tried to upload on different days and times to see what would work best for me and when my viewers watched and it was all over the place. They I took a look at my analytics page and specifically the real time to see when viewers were watching and it was a little more clear. I would suggest that. Once you get in a rhythm your viewers will remember and know what days you upload so they can look forward to that. Just play around with it! :) good luck!
Dose the upload time have an effect on your views? :O

Usually the best time for me is between 6-8 PM. I have found if I upload too late people don't watch till the next day.
