This guide walks you through creating your TubeAnalytics account and connecting your YouTube channel. The whole process takes about 2 minutes.
Step 1: Create Your Account
Go to tubeanalytics.net/sign-up. Sign up with your email or Google account. Use the same Google account as your YouTube channel — it skips extra steps during connection.
Step 2: Connect Your YouTube Channel
After signing up, you'll see a prompt to connect your channel:
- Click Connect Channel on the onboarding screen
- Sign in with the Google account that manages your YouTube channel
- Grant TubeAnalytics permission to read your analytics data
- Wait for the initial sync (usually 1–2 minutes)
TubeAnalytics only needs view-only access. We can never post on your behalf or change your channel.
Step 3: Explore Your Dashboard
Once connected, your dashboard shows:
- Overview metrics — views, watch time, subscribers, and revenue at a glance
- Recent videos — how your latest uploads are performing
- Growth trends — channel growth over the past 28 days
- Top content — your best-performing videos
Step 4: Customize Your Dashboard
Click the settings icon to pick which metrics appear on your dashboard:
- Drag widgets to rearrange them
- Choose your time range (7 days, 28 days, 90 days)
- Set alerts for subscriber milestones or view thresholds
Step 5: Set Up Notifications
Go to Settings > Notifications to turn on alerts for:
- Subscriber milestones
- Unusual traffic spikes or drops
- Weekly performance summaries
- Competitor activity (Professional plan and above)
