So his channel is Story Recapped.
he linked his IG to his YouTube account and says he wants to “help others succeed on YouTube” by answering their questions when they hit his DM’s.
he says good “title, thumbnail and description”
are all you need.
BUT I searched his IG handle on google and this is what I found:

His YouTube videos are being shown on a bunch of random spammy websites and they link to his channel.
Is this some black hat method to increase his YT views?
these guys first of all from what ive heard is one of chase namics friend.
cashcow group.
the main method used by a lot of successful channels is infact not blackhat from my case study.
its whitehat.
but i'd call it sort of blackhat since almost no one notices , and oversee it.
these guys usually use bigger channels to promote these smaller channels via playlists,endscreens etc.
they just need one big channel in similar niche to blow it up by cross promotion.
now if they have 10 big authority channels pulling high views per day and cross promote their smaller channels from zero subs onwards, the small channels will instantly give a strong trigger to the yt algo, and pscore will be crazy from day 1, and they will blow up to millions of views, like a nuclear bomb.
i've done tests on such cases and they work wonders.
explains why many sub channels in connection with MrBeast are all blowing up to crazy amounts.
like minecraft channels.
its not simply about good content.
some type of cross promotion going on.
imagine using one powerful authority channel bringing high traffic, to give birth to 10 small channels.
they will all blow in a matter of time.
you can create infinite farm of channels like this.
=====================================================================
now moving on to the blackhat side, it is possible that they could be doing that too.
but like i said above, most commonly abused trick by experienced youtube channel owners is, cross channel promotion.
this method is far more powerful than smm ways, since you are copying channel authority & niche based audience data, from channel A to channel B.
it always works to push videos to recommendations.
now for bots, it could be likely that they use private bots to send a massive amount of views and engagement within the first 24 hours to give it a high push in the algorithm.
these people use bots that run within closed groups.
there is usually no point of searchiing for them , because you will never find it.
the only way is to develop your own.
