We walk through the Content tab, uploading and editing videos, setting your upload defaults, and unlocking advanced features like custom thumbnails and A/B testing. Then we dive into YouTube Analytics: click-through rate, audience retention, the retention graph, and where your views are actually coming from (browse features vs. search).
We also show you Advanced Mode inside YouTube Studio, one of the most underused tools for tracking your channel's performance over time, plus how to manage comments and customize your channel.
