YouTube Shorts are now averaging 70 billion views per day.

The portrait-style clips are a maximum of 60 seconds. If long videos are your comfort zone, the best option could be to simply chop up key moments from your longer videos.
One 28-minute makeover was cut into six Shorts with a combined 340K views.
- One moment from the long video.
- A vertical frame.
- Under 60 seconds.
What you can try now: Write the first second of the Short.
Use YouTube Shorts to test new concepts and funnel viewers to long-form content.
A Short can try an idea before you spend a long video on it.
Keep the test inside the frame people actually see on a phone.
- A new idea, not a trailer for everything.
- A path to the long video when the idea works.
- The safe area, so the hook is not covered by buttons.
What you can try now: Check the Short against the safe zone.
