What is Hold rate?

Definition

The share of 3-second viewers who kept watching to a longer mark, often measured as ThruPlays.

Formula: ThruPlays divided by 3-second video views, times 100

Hold rate shows whether people stay after the opening. A strong hook with a weak hold suggests the middle of the video loses people.
