March 2014 Online Video Rankings: 47 Billion Videos Watched In U.S.


If you thought it's only a few days since we gave you Video Metrix data from comScore, then you'd be right. The February 2014 stats were late, but the ones for March are bang on time and they show that more than 187 million Americans watched 46.6 billion online videos last month. That's around 5 million more viewers who are watching around 3 million less content videos than in February, although both metrics have increased compared to March 2013. Video ad views totaled 28.7 billion, an increase from the previous month, and almost double that of the March 2013.

Google sites (i.e. YouTube) generated 11.1 billion of the 46.6 billion video content views, with Facebook in second place with 4.6 billion, and AOL, Inc. in third place with 1.3 billion. Google Sites had the highest average engagement among the top ten properties.

ZEFR jumps from #5 to take the #2 spot for the YouTube channel with the most unique viewers, pushing Maker Studios down to #3. VEVO remains the number one YouTube channel, also claiming the second highest highest viewer engagement, after Maker.

While VEVO remain in the top spot with 28.8 million viewers, the fight for unique viewers remains very close for those just behind. ZEFR take the #2 spot for March (21.2 million), with Maker (20.6 million), Disney Online (20.4 million), and Fullscreen (20.4 million), snapping at its heels.
