Watch Time: the length of time viewers consume your video content. If you have a 10 minute video and viewers are only consuming 30-45 seconds on average before leaving, chances are, your video isn’t ranking high in the YouTube Algorithm.

Watch Sessions: watch sessions are an important part of the YouTube Algorithm because this measures how long people are staying on the platform.
