Reading a video's numbers
A like rate around 4-5% of views is typical; above 8% the audience loved it, under 2% the title over-promised. Comments per view above 0.3% mean the video started a conversation - rare and valuable. Together they form the engagement figure YouTube's recommendation system weighs alongside watch time.
Tags are hidden on the watch page but public in the data; copy them as a starting point, not a template - the title and the first two lines of the description matter far more. Topics are YouTube's own classification of what the video is about.
What to do with it
Frequently asked questions
Can I see a video's dislikes?
No - YouTube removed the public dislike count in 2021; the API no longer returns it.
Are the tags accurate?
They are exactly what the uploader entered in YouTube Studio, read from the official API.
Does it work for Shorts?
Yes - paste the Shorts link.
