These New YouTube Updates Bring Better Analytics to Creators

YouTube has been making a lot of changes as of late, but some of the more recent updates that are coming to the platform will be especially useful to creators with all things having been considered and taken into account. First and foremost is the upgrade to YouTube analytics which will definitely give creators access to more detailed data than might have been the case otherwise, that's according to Creator Insider.

Essentially, a lot of the data that creators would want to look into will be condensed into a card that is being referred to as Data Stories. Updates like this one can make it much easier for creators to not just take a look at their content but also to understand it in a simpler and more digestible manner.


A lot of the upcoming updates seem to be focusing on Shorts. They make sense because of the fact that this is the sort of thing that could potentially end up making Shorts more appealing to creators. For one thing, viewers will now be able to become premium channel members through the Shorts feed itself instead of having to navigate to the creator’s channel.

With all of that having been said and now out of the way, it is important to note that this update in particular will play a huge role in helping creators to monetize their content. They certainly need all of the help that they can get on that front, especially considering how low the pay out for Shorts content currently is.

Finally, we have an update that will allow creators to reply to comments with shorts. This can enable them to drive a lot more traffic to the videos that they are posting, not to mention aiding them in converting the engagement and interactions that they are receiving into some additional views.


All in all, it seems like all of these updates are going to be an excellent step forward for creators on the platform. YouTube is clearly doubling down on its creators, and that will create numerous opportunities for them to grow as well as thrive thanks to increased income from all sources.
