How it works

  1. 01

    Enter a keyword

    A topic you are considering, or one you already cover.

  2. 02

    Pick a market

    Foreign markets are the interesting ones: formats travel with a delay.

  3. 03

    Read views against length

    A short video with heavy views on a serious keyword tells you what the audience wants.

What people use it for

Researching a topic

Seeing what already ranks tells you what you are competing with before you film.

Finding a foreign format

What works in one market often has not reached yours yet — the whole idea behind VideoTrends.

Checking demand

A keyword whose top results have modest view counts is a keyword with modest demand.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from searching on YouTube?+

No personalisation and an explicit country. Your own search is shaped by your history and location, so it cannot tell you what a viewer in another market sees. This can.

Why search a market I am not in?+

Because formats cross borders with a lag. A format that overperforms abroad can often be adapted before it saturates your own market — that is the premise VideoTrends is built on.

Do view counts tell me if a keyword is worth targeting?+

Partly. High counts on the top results confirm demand exists, but they also tell you the competition is established. A keyword where a 10,000-view video ranks first is often a better opportunity for a small channel.

Are Shorts included?+

Yes, and they are labelled. Worth noticing: a keyword whose results are mostly Shorts is a keyword where long-form may struggle.

How many results do you show?+

Around twenty, which is the depth YouTube search actually surfaces before viewers stop scrolling. Positions beyond that receive very little traffic.

Can I see how these videos perform against their own channels?+

Not here — that comparison needs each channel’s median. The competitor analysis tool does exactly that for one channel at a time, and the VideoTrends dashboard does it continuously.
