{"id":9373,"slug":"youtube-number-one-turnover-by-market","title":"Turnover at Number One on YouTube’s Daily Video Chart, 24 African Markets, 16 August to 7 November 2026","source":"kworb.net YouTube Insights daily country charts, collected by this desk","source_url":"https:\/\/kworb.net\/youtube\/","source_type":"computed","method":"Every African market for which this desk's multi-service collector pulls a daily YouTube chart (24 markets; YouTube publishes no African market chart outside these), position 1 only, for every snapshot date from 2026-08-16 to 2026-11-07 (81 to 83 snapshot dates per market, one gap in collection on two markets). A 'reign' is a run of one or more consecutive snapshot dates on which the same artist-and-title pair, as printed on the chart, held position 1; a reign ends the first date a different artist-and-title pair appears at position 1 and a new reign begins, even if the earlier pair later returns. avg_reign_days is total_days divided by reigns for that market. Reign length is counted in chart-days (snapshot dates actually collected), not calendar days, so a skipped collection date is invisible in the count, not a zero. Position is read directly from kworb's YouTube Insights table, which kworb compiles from YouTube's own daily view counts per market; this desk did not re-derive the ranking. No origin or export classification is applied in this dataset: every market here is African, so there is no non-African comparison to draw.","unit":"days","license":"Afrobeats Wire's compilation and analysis are licensed CC BY 4.0.
