Watch Time

[woch tahym]

Watch time refers to the time viewers spend watching any video on a social media network. You can understand it in a way; suppose you are scrolling on Facebook, and you stop by to watch an exciting video. Now, it is predictable that you might not see the whole video and exit halfway through it. Whatever time you spend watching the video will refer to the watch time of that video.

Watch time is an important parameter to make your video content rank well on platforms like Google. The better the watch time average, the higher and more visible your video will rank.
