YouTube continues to be the most popular video platform out there and stands as the second-most popular search engine. Keep in mind, YouTube viewers watch over one billion hours of video on the platform every single day! We collected all our data to pull together some official statistics on what has happened on YouTube in 2021 (no YouTube Rewind's were hurt in the making of this infographic).
It's interesting to see that almost all the top 10 sponsored YouTube videos are challenge-based videos - leading to the conclusion that sponsored challenge-type videos rack up the most views and, according to the table, show amazing success (jot it down for the year to come). The brands that nailed influencer marketing via sponsorships? Brawl Stars and NordVPN.
In 2021, the top sponsoring brand according to the number of videos sponsored goes to...GFUEL. This brand sponsored over 12,000 videos and racked up 1667M views.
