How Long Should Your Videos Be?

Do longer videos get more love from the KZbin algorithm? Are hour-long podcasts getting more exposure than your 2-minute short film? This video covers video length as it pertains to KZbin’s search & discovery systems.

That's amazing! I only read a few comments, and it is amazing how misinformed and paranoid people are. There are comments saying KZbin rather to promote bad content instead of good ones. There are comments saying that this video teach us nothing. But actually, this video is telling us only one thing: to keep our content with the better quality as we can, don't matter how long it takes. Simple like that.

I'm starting to make longer videos partially because I would rather watch longer videos myself and also partially because I enjoy making longer videos more than shorter videos. There was a time when I preferred making shorter videos. I don't think it matters. It matters doing what you are passionate about. Follow your dreams.

[@AmericanSpyFox]

I use to make 10-15 minute videos about 2x a week. My audience kept asking for longer videos so I started making 20-30 minute long videos. Trouble is, longer videos take longer to produce so then they get mad that they're not getting 2 videos per week. You're damned if you do and damned if you don't. There's no satisfying everybody. Whatever your length of video is, the most important thing is to stay consistent. I tried going back to shorter videos and that pissed them off! Your audience gets use to certain lengths so stick within a very specific time frame. I learned this the hard way.

[@Tanya_Maria]

Why you didn't even mention that a video must be over 8 minutes so that a creator can have 3 ads instead of 2!? That's quite important information for creators.

I've learnt by myself experimenting with the length and content quality the exact same thing mentioned in the video.

[@ShootMeMovieReviews]

Consider what is actually being said here. Pretty much it amounts to: make your videos as long as you think they need to be. Don't worry about the length, because that won't help you get more views. All of these videos essentially deliver the same message - there is no way to make a change calculated to increase your views that is reliable. So just don't worry about it. End of.

@@EnmanuelDiaz Sorry that I'm just answering now. I have not received a notification for your comment but just now from someone else. Your idea is good but in the credits are the links to playlists, videos, website and subscription. Many will not look in the description first and click on a link from there. Very few will take the time to do that. The world has become much too fast-paced for that. Click and continue or swipe and continue. I can also shorten the credits to only 5 seconds. Shorter is not possible (I just tried). My credits are only 2-3 seconds longer (so mostly 8 seconds). These credits are a very short animation and then make sense with the 8 seconds and end completely. I don't see a better option for me right now. (Translated with DeepL)

cám ơn người anh lớn chia sẻ, nội dung video của anh, thật sự rất hữu ích cho tôi. tôi theo dõi thời lượng xem của khán giả cập nhật, có 85% chỉ thích xem dưới 2 phút. Và hầu như, người ta không có thời gian, hoặc không mặn mà để theo dõi những video có thời lượng dài.(trừ một số video có nội dung âm nhạc, nhưng số lượng khán giả cũng rất ít). Vì thế, tôi chuyển hướng làm video thời lượng ngắn hơn, tuy nhiên, với video thời lượng ngắn,thì sẽ kiếm được rất ít tiền từ quảng cáo. hihi.Chúc người anh lớn luôn vui khỏe và hạnh phúc.

After the changes in algorithm around 2018, my channel and many others started dying. I had been getting much more views and constantly progressing until 2017, although having significantly fewer subs then. Currently almost all views of my new videos come from external sites or search engine. I get almost nothing from main page or suggested videos. Even next to my own videos, the suggested ones are not from my channel (although they are related to each other). My videos are found valuable by viewers, as they are often shared externally and are always positively received. Unfortunately KZbin keeps hiding them and showing boring, much worse and prolonged videos of the same topic instead. Very demotivating for a creator to be treated like this after 9 years of uploading...

I'd say it depends on the video. For example, say I were to play Sonic the Hedgehog or some other platformer. I TRY to aim for my video after editing and everything to be between 12 and 20 minutes. Playing a video game with a stronger story I'd try to aim for a longer video. For example, my Little Misfortune video I recently uploaded is roughly an hour long due to the nature of the game as it is a click and point. If I were to make all shorter videos of the game my viewers nor I would get to a satisfactory amount of the story's progression and it would take MUCH longer to finish.
