YouTube's Algorithm

YouTube's algorithm is a system that recommends videos to viewers based on their interests and viewing habits. It analyzes factors like what videos you watch, how long you watch them, your search history, and engagement (likes, comments). The system then predicts what other videos you might enjoy and suggests them on your homepage, in the "Up Next" section, and notifications. Its goal is to keep viewers engaged by showing relevant content, balancing popular, trending videos with personalized recommendations. This process helps users discover new channels and helps creators reach their target audiences.
