YouTube videos that dominated the charts in Belgium over the last 7 days.
The weekly ranking measures consistency over time - every hour spent in the top charts counts. A single-day viral spike carries far less weight than a video that dominates for several consecutive days.
How fast this chart renews itself
Over the last 7 days, the ranking in Belgium replaced an average of 24% of its entries every day, moving between 19% and 33% depending on the day. That is an unusually stable chart, where a hit installs itself for weeks instead of days. This figure comes from comparing our own daily snapshots: YouTube publishes the ranking of the moment, never how much of it survived since yesterday.
The chart carries about 48 entries a day, filled by 48 distinct channels, so almost every slot belongs to a different publisher. Concentration only appears when one channel places several videos at once, which is exactly what the ranking above lets you check.
The most resistant video of the week held on for 24 consecutive days: Mauvais djo - WAGYU - (Clip officiel). Survival time is a far better measure of a video's strength than the position it opened at, because it is the only one a launch budget cannot buy.
The sharpest climb belonged to AVEZ-VOUS DรJร PรCHร AVEC DES ARMES ? (How to Fish), up 23 places in a single day. A jump of that size in twenty-four hours almost always signals an audience arriving from outside YouTube rather than gradual discovery.
