How to read this channel

ethan is a 21,600-subscriber channel (about 25 months old) working mainly in Horror / Thriller, publishing first in English / Global. The radar tracks 2 of its uploads. Its strongest signal (breakout score 1.4× the dataset median) reaches 16.4× the channel's subscriber count and has averaged 3,242 views a day since it was published 109 days ago, on “6 Ways Humanity Ends | Sci-Fi Cosmic Horror Film Compilation” (353,331 views). That is a lifetime average, not a current rate — one capture per video means this dataset cannot distinguish a video that is still climbing from one that already peaked. The API reports the audio track language as en.

There is one statistic this page deliberately does not print: a per-channel “share of uploads that reached 3×”. Every video on this site cleared that floor before it could be tracked at all, so the figure would read 100% for every channel and would distinguish nothing. What is left instead: 2 tracked uploads pulling 419,014 views between them, the strongest reaching 16.4× its audience. Repeated strong reach across several uploads is the part that suggests a format; one outlier is not. The hook patterns the tracker infers from its titles are number / list hook (1), statement / cold open (1), and the production choices that repeat are no-face format (no host on camera), compilation / best-of format, countdown / ranked structure in title, single-sitting long-form (30min+).

What to copy and what to skip: copy the packaging pattern (title structure, the promise made in the first seconds, the episode length that keeps working) and skip the parts that only this channel can do — an existing subscriber base, cross-posting, or a back catalogue that feeds recommendations. Then compare this channel against the others on its category board: same niche, different market, different length. That comparison is where the transferable part usually hides.

Those are audience numbers, not earnings: the public API returns views and subscribers but never revenue, so nothing on this site can tell you what the channel takes in. To turn an audience size like this one into a money figure under assumptions you set yourself, the YouTube channel value calculator applies an RPM you choose to views the API actually reports — it draws its comparables from the same tracked channels, and it holds no revenue data either.

Derived from the title, duration and market — no frame-level video analysis, and no use of the labels this site writes on an entry.
