Chart Toppers
Before we get into the numbers, it’s important to note that YouTube view counts are wacky this week. And they’re wacky by A LOT. Every single channel in the Top 50 saw it’s week-over-week view count increase somewhere between 100% and 300% in the last seven days. The culprit is some kind of as-of-yet undetermined bug that the powers that be at YouTube are currently trying to squash. The massive increase in view counts started on January 14. They haven’t affected revenue, but they have inflated the numbers.
With all that being said, let’s get onto the (improbable) numbers we got.
T-Series is in first place on the worldwide chart for the twenty-third week in a row. India’s self-described largest music label and movie studio closed out the week just shy of 734 million views. In a distant second place is Ryan ToysReviews. Five-year-old Ryan’s channel where he unboxes toys and plays with them took home almost 612.8 million views in the week.
Up next in the #3 spot is Canal KondZilla. Poppy Brazilian music’s home on YouTube scored over 468.8 million views throughout the week. netd müzik is next up in fourth place. The online video outpost of the Turkish music conglomerate ended the week with more than 466.8 million views.
And rounding out the Top 5 is El Reino Infantil. The YouTube home for a number of animated children’s shows from Argentina amassed over 461.6 million views during the week.
Top Gainers
It doesn’t quite make sense to post a Top Gainers this week as (per the paragraph up above) YouTube’s temporary viewership glitch has given every channel on the chart an incredible week. We’ll get back to this regularly scheduled portion of the Tubefilter Charts as soon as the issue is resolved.
Channel Distribution
The top 50 most viewed YouTube channels worldwide this week amassed a total of 13,500,840,762 views. Here’s the distribution of a few of those channels by multi-channel network:
VEVO: 8 channels in the U.S. Top 50, with Chainsmokers the highest-ranked channel of the network at #12.
Maker Studios: 4 channels in the Top 50, with PewDiePie at #17.
Studio71: 3 channels in the Top 50, with Family Fun Pack at #13.
BroadbandTV, ONErpm: 2 channels each in the Top 50, with BBTV’s WorldStarHipHop at #29 and ONErpm’s Canal KondZilla at #3.
And here’s the distribution of the this week’s Top 50 YouTube channels by country of origin:
United States: 23 channels in the Top 50.
India: 6 channels in the Top 50.
