48hrs of First Video Ever. Your Experience?

I know YouTube can be random especially early on for a new channel & no one can truly say what’s “normal”. But wanted some perspective & experiences from others while I work on my new content.

For the first 48hrs of my very first posted video it yielded:
- __60 Views__
- __1.8% “click-through rate”__
- __19% View Duration__
To help me have an idea how far off I might be & what I might be working with I was hoping you guys could help me categorize this as:
- “Extremely low you are a long, long way off.”
- “Pretty avg, but on lower end, definitely not exceptional”
- “About what’s to be expected”
- “____ number is pretty average, but ____is way off”
- “too early to truly tell, but more than likely ___is a low number”
or some other way to help quantify it from your experience.

If you could give me some of your own experiences/examples of your first 48hrs of your very first video it would be very helpful.

I already see my videos need to be better, because obviously people are not staying engaged long (which I already have plans for moving my hooks in earlier on).

But if you have any other advice or cautionary tales I would appreciate it also.
Thanks.
