A short YouTube clip by Peter Vander Wall arguing that raw view counts are meaningless unless the content targets a clearly defined audience. He explains that when content is specific about who it's for, each view is more likely to be from a relevant viewer (e.g., 200 or 1,000 views become valuable if they reach the intended audience).

The more views you get. If the content is highly specific, the more each individual view is worth. If your content is not specific on who you're supposed to be talking to, then those 200 views are irrelevant. But if it's very clear on who this video is for and you got 200 views, well, those 200 views, some of those are probably going to be those people who this video is for. Thousand views, that's even more likely.
