Earlier in 2023, YouTube highlighted the significant impact of Shorts on artists' reach, with fans nearly doubling their engagement. The momentum on Shorts has been substantial, with daily views averaging 70 billion as of September 2023 (up from 50 billion in December 2022).
YouTube allows users to seamlessly discover artists and songs through music videos and Shorts, create Shorts with their favourite tunes, and enjoy continuous playback on YouTube Music.
Recognising this growth and the expanding influence of YouTube across various formats, YouTube are introducing their multi-format Charts site, which includes several features to elevate your engagement.
