Twitch, on Wednesday, announced changes to how the company will tracking views for clips in order to “better reflect genuine viewer engagement”.
In a post on social media, the company is making five specific changes that will track more views more accurately. It also continues the company’s recent efforts to combat view botting that has plagued the site for a while.
**“While clip views may initially appear lower, you’ll now have cleaner and more consistent cross-platform clips data that will ultimately help provide you with better insights into clip performance,”** Twitch said.
As far as the specific changes go, those include:
* Fixing a technical issue that was inadvertently inflating clip view counts
* Including clip views from Stories in clip view totals
* Making view counting more consistent across all platforms (web, iOS, Android)
* Better filtering out of bot traffic
* Enabling improved clip analytics and laying the groundwork for us to explore new analytics features
**“Going forward, we’ll continue to fine-tune our clip view counting system on an ongoing basis,”** they added.
