Abstract

In the modern digital era, YouTube comments are not only words, but they show the sentiments of the viewers with lots of insights. This paper uses YouTube API to analyze comments and extract valued information about viewer sentiments. The present study helps content creators, marketers, and decision-makers understand the audience’s reaction to the specific video(s). The exploratory data analysis has been conducted to reveal the user engagement pattern, emphasizing sentiment analysis, usage of emojis, and trending tags. The dataset used for the research focused on a motivational video that highlights the emotional influence of content and the part of emojis in the engagement of viewers. The emoji expressions and trending tag analysis have been standardized to have an inclusive view of the dynamic environment of YouTube. This paper bridges the gap between content creators, promoters, and researchers, and also makes them capable of strategy optimization to improve user experiences depending on decoded sentiments and user interactions on this comprehensive platform.
