Additionally, you see how many users started watching the video, how many of them watched the first quartile (of the total video length), how many watched till midpoint, third quartile, and, finally, how many users completed the whole video. Also, you can see how many users watched the video muted/not muted and how many of them paused/resumed the video.

**<span class="s1">VIDEO RECOMMENDATIONS</span>**

<span class="s1">As seen in the examples above, video campaign results may vary and CPV reached can start from $0.002 and go up to $0.06. We recommend to use videos not longer than 30 seconds, more important we recommend to pay more attention to the content of the video from the user perspective: don't try to put all the information in one video, rather try to make it more engaging, light, and in a popular format.</span>
