Question about audience retention....

[Nicky Furmage]

Guys
i was just looking at my analytics and was wondering does audience retention get affected when you look at your own videos? odd question i know but i was just curious?
thanks

Youtube would balance your own views and remove them from time to time, so I guess it would be the same with retention!
I´m guessing you watch the videos, to see how it plays out?
I wouldn´t want to watch my own videos, but then again, that makes me not see the mistakes I make!

Yeah to see them play out or if i go back to check an edit etc

If 1 person clicks away after a second and 100 people watch about 1/3rd of the video it's still going to be 1/3rd of the video in the greater scheme. One does not make the difference.
