Youtube sees millions of users a day as consumers flock to the site for pretty much every topic under the son. With such a large audience, Youtube has become the perfect tool for advertisers. Unfortunately, a new study revealed that most advertisers are doing Youtube completely wrong.

In this new study, Strike Social examined a year’s worth of YouTube campaigns across 25 industries. Using their own data science tools, the new study focused on the metrics that matter most — view rate, cost-per-view and click-through rate — and then compared how some of those factors vary across gender, age, device, season and more.
