Derral Eves, the creator of 34 million-subscriber YouTube channels and founder of VidSummit, shares his formula for cracking the YouTube code by understanding the viewer-based algorithm.

• Understanding who your viewer is and where they are in their journey is the key to YouTube success
• The biggest mistake creators make is not studying YouTube and learning from top creators
• Successful creators can visualize how viewers consume their content and eliminate elements that cause drop-off
• VidSummit was created to help YouTubers treat their channels as businesses and build community among creators
• The transition from view-based to viewer-based algorithms fundamentally changed how to succeed on YouTube
• Most creators focus on vanity metrics like subscribers when they should focus on viewer relationships
• Data from analytics doesn't lie—it shows exactly when viewers find value and when they don't
• Surrounding yourself with other creators dramatically increases your chances of YouTube success
• New creators often think their videos are amazing when they're actually missing fundamental elements
• The Chosen TV series demonstrates how YouTube strategies can disrupt traditional media distribution
