One of my videos apparently got shared somewhere and it's the first (noticeable) time it wasn't myself who posted it.

This is huge for my scale and I can't wait for Analytics to kick in and show me the traffic source. This share already brought me 13 new subscriber which is the highest growth in a single day I can remember on my channel. The best thing about it - My next video was already going to serv exactly this niche. So new subscribers immediately will get what they came for.

So keep creating - some day you will be shared by THAT influencer :)

Nice one! I love the live analytics feature especially for this purpose! When live analytics came out very shortly after I had my most views over a 48 hour period ever, I save those graphs like trophies! Did you check what video it was?
 
It's my guide about sharpening a chisel without honing guide. It already has some good views from a collaboration and from instructables.
 
Oh I like that! Jeez why can't somebody share me on some comedy forum.... Totes Jelly (I don't really say "Totes" or "Jelly" in "RL" by the way, just trying to sound stupid, haha, I am jealous though ;)
 
14 subs so far and I still see increased traffic on that video. I am really wondering where it was shared as I thought I covered all important social groups. It will be interesting to see how the audience retention is. What's a bit strange is that despite the new subscribers there are no comments. Views without other engagement would be very typical for an embed on a website but the subscriber growth is really interesting.[DOUBLEPOST=1453272794,1453272706][/DOUBLEPOST]Oh - I think I already know where the views came from. My article on Instructables had a sudden increase of 10k reads. It will be interesting to find out why.
 
I still owe you some numbers and graphs:

For the peak 68% came from external where 89% were from instructables. I still have no idea where the sudden boost was initiated as the initial boost and the boost from getting featured are long gone. Probably my article was put in some recommendation tabs there.
Audience retention during this time is at 77% for a 4:35 video.
 
Just an update for whom it may concern. I just got a third though much smaller boost from instructables for this video. I am really beginning to like that website :)
