Updated
Are YouTube Shorts worth the effort?
The numbers speak for themselves. In June 2025, YouTube announced an average of more than 200 billion Shorts views per day. In France, YouTube reaches 51.5 million users according to DataReportal, more than Instagram or TikTok. Shorts have another advantage: they remain findable through YouTube and Google search long after they are published.
What is the maximum length of a Short?
Three minutes. Since 15 October 2024, YouTube has classified any vertical or square video of up to three minutes as a Short, according to its help page. We often repurpose videos shot for TikTok or Reels for YouTube, adapting the title, thumbnail and keywords, because search carries more weight there than anywhere else.

A YouTube Shorts agency creates and optimises short videos for YouTube search and recommendations, to establish a brand over time. Esekai produces Shorts designed for both the algorithm and conversion, from Paris.
Why YouTube Shorts is the most underrated lever
Unlike TikTok, where a video lives for a few days, a well-optimised Short keeps being discovered for weeks through YouTube search and recommendations. The audience is different there, and often more intent-driven. It is a lasting discovery channel that most brands still overlook.
What a YouTube Shorts agency does
Channel strategy, production of Shorts in native 9:16 format, optimisation of titles, descriptions and hooks for YouTube SEO, and alignment with your long-form content if you have any. The goal: keep your channel fed continuously and turn discovery into subscribers, then customers.
Shorts, TikTok and Reels: complementary
All three formats can come from the same shoot, but each has its own codes. We can produce for a single channel or for all three, consistently. See also our TikTok agency and social media agency for a multi-platform strategy.
How our engagement works
An audit of your channel and your subject area, definition of an editorial line, regular Shorts production, performance tracking and adjustments. As with all our engagements, we work over the long term for results that stick.
How much does a YouTube Shorts agency cost
The budget depends on the volume of Shorts produced each month and the level of optimisation you want. We build a tailored offer. Book a 30-minute call to talk it through.
