This week, we sampled 149 public Gaming posts on YouTube. The average view count across the sample is 12,879,415, up from 12,852,867 in the previous run. Here is how individual hashtags performed.
ContentScout's own analysis: we sample real public posts matching gaming search terms on YouTube and score them by how much engagement they're getting relative to how recently they were posted. Hashtags are ranked by the average views of the posts using them, not by how often they appear. The numbers describe those posts, they don't promise results.
