Frequently asked questions
How accurate are these YouTube channel analytics?
Subscriber, view, and video counts come from YouTube's public API and refresh regularly. Growth and revenue figures are estimates built from tracked historical data, so they can differ slightly from what a channel owner sees privately in YouTube Studio.
How is a channel's global and country rank calculated?
Rank compares this channel's subscriber count and view count against every other channel Socialcounts.org tracks, both worldwide and within its home country.
How is the revenue estimate calculated?
It's a rough public estimate based on a $0.7–$2.0 CPM (revenue per 1,000 views) applied to view counts — not actual creator earnings, which depend on ad rates, audience geography, and monetization settings YouTube doesn't expose publicly.
Can I check analytics for any YouTube channel, not just my own?
Yes — search any public YouTube channel by name, handle, or channel URL. No login is required to see the basics.
Is this YouTube channel analytics checker free?
Yes. You get 10 free channel and video analytics lookups per rolling hour without an account — logging in, which is also free, removes that limit entirely.
