4 months without Youtube

So I haven't been on YT for 4 months now and it looks like the search rankings a bit haywire, really, a 8 hours old 2 view video overtaking a 5 years old 19 million view one? And no, its not a recommended video and my cookies are minimum.

So anyone willing to enlighten me? Last I heard, high retention views were king.

Yes YT has and is still making alot of changes!Nevertheless a video that is well optimized with a great title,tags and a good description will get u ranked easily!Wish u all the best!

Pics or it didnt happen

For the search phase Miku, just cleaned all FF cookies before search.
