Watch sessions are a hidden powerhouse in the YouTube algorithm. A watch session is the total time a viewer stays on YouTube after watching your video. If your content leads viewers to keep watching—whether it's another one of your videos or someone else’s—the algorithm rewards you. Why? Because YouTube’s goal is to keep users on the platform longer. Videos that contribute to extended sessions are seen as valuable, even if they’re not the final stop. You can boost watch sessions by using playlists, end screens, and video links in your descriptions or pinned comments. The more your content keeps viewers engaged and exploring, the more favorably the algorithm treats your channel—leading to higher visibility and faster growth.
