What does Reactions Rate mean?

Learn what Reactions Rate means, how it is calculated, and how to use it to evaluate audience engagement and compare YouTube creators with similar channels

Written by Iren

Reactions Rate is the number of reactions (likes and dislikes) per 1,000 views in a given period.

HypeAuditor compares this number with similar accounts by the number of views and provides a benchmark that helps to understand how engaged an influencer's audience is.

For brands and marketers, Reactions Rate is a useful signal when evaluating a YouTube creator: a high rate relative to the benchmark indicates that viewers are actively responding to the content, which can reflect stronger audience involvement and content relevance. A low Reactions Rate compared to similar accounts may suggest lower audience engagement, which is worth factoring in when selecting creators for a campaign.
