How the numbers are made
- Suggestions come from YouTube's own autocomplete: the phrase itself, then the phrase followed by each letter and a few modifiers. Rank is the position YouTube shows them in. Count is how many prefixes produced the same phrase.
- Competing videos is YouTube's own estimate of results for the phrase. It is rounded and capped, but it separates a thousand-video niche from a million-video one.
- Top 10 are the ten videos YouTube ranks first by relevance right now, with live view counts and channel sizes from the API.
- Opportunity score out of 100: competition 35 (fewer videos is better), weak incumbents 30 (share of top-10 channels under 100K subscribers), demand 20 (average views of the top 10), freshness 15 (share published in the last year).
- Why no search volume? Nobody outside Google has YouTube search volume. Other tools model it and show it as a fact. We show only what we can measure.
