What this tool calculates

This tool adds likes and comments, then divides by either views or subscribers according to the selected method.

How the calculation works

By views: ((likes + comments) ÷ views) × 100. Relative to subscribers: ((likes + comments) ÷ subscribers) × 100.

How to interpret the result

A view-based rate describes interaction among views. A subscriber-relative rate compares video interaction with channel audience size.

Limitations

This calculation does not include watch time, retention, shares, traffic source or returning viewers, and it cannot access private channel analytics.

Frequently asked questions

Are the two methods equivalent?

No. They use different denominators and answer different questions.

Does the calculator store my channel data?

The calculation happens in your browser; Untop records only an anonymous tool-completion event for aggregate usage.

Does the result measure channel quality?

No single percentage can measure overall channel quality or predict growth.
