?What is a good YouTube engagement rate?

Unlike Instagram, YouTube engagement is measured against views rather than total subscribers. A "good" engagement rate on YouTube is typically between 4% to 6%.

High engagement tells the algorithm that people are not just watching passively, but actively enjoying the content. This signals YouTube to push your content to a broader audience via the homepage recommendations.
