How is this Youtube Channel growing like this?

Hi everyone,

I'm in the process of creating my own "Cash Cow" youtube channel, and whilst researching I came across some channels which seem to be owned by the same person.

One channel was created on the 1st July 2021 and already has 8,000,000 views. Now, I understand that they have other large channels so there could be some kind of cross promotion going on, but even still, to go so viral from the first video is pretty amazing.

Apart from cross promotion, how else can a video get this amount of views almost right off the bat?

Most courses I have watched say find certain keywords which you can rank for, and create video's around them, and then eventually when your following grows you can start to create video's not tailored to keywords as much. These channels which I will link below seem to completely disregard this and literally write what they want for a title and they are still able to go viral.

I was just wondering if someone more knowledgable could possible dissect these channels, and essentially share some knowledge on what they are doing because I am sure that myself and fellow BHW users which are trying to create a Cash Cow channel would love to know!

Anyways, here are the channels;

Look forward to hearing what you have to say!

Thanks for reading.


They are

how do the detective channel make money?

They don’t have ads so won’t be making much, godknows how they’re pulling in those views either?

They are using private bots obviously. Those videos on those channels can get them banned if they try to monetize with youtube ads

I have come across this channel as well - Not sure if it monetized - but there are ads at the start and end. They use an AI voiceover that is very advanced.

Would love to know the background to gaining the views as the engagement proves it is not bots - but legit. Possibly bots to get organic veiws. But definitely real.

private bots + mostly automated content spamming. they are using the kind of bots that get you on the home page, and using them consistently.

The detective channel doesn't have ads on, however I just got an ad in a video of their "Story Recapped" channel that has almost 600k subscribers.
So they probably wait for the channels to grow big enough and then they enable ads.

lmao, to each their own i guess

Thanks for posting.

My theory is they are botting their way through all of this, this guy probably has a HUGE budge that he's using to pay for views/subs. Or he's the one who directly sends the bots.

In terms of monetization, he will 100% get his channel dimonetized if caught, so he's growing and accumulating the traffic and audience until he reaches a safe place to upload organically and monetize.

Yeah, sure, i dont judge, he aint hurtin nobody

+ i think this is not allowed on YT and can get your video taken down or even your channel as a whole. Am i right no?

And i was watching his content, there is no way he aint getting copyrighted for the movie footage he is displaying, all his "stories" and "mysteries" are from movies and he just recaps the movie or a part of it in a video.

this is very interesting indeed

I think a lot of his traffic is organic as well

Also his intention doesn't seem like he wants to monetise these as much as farm subs

Maybe Detective Recapped was demonitzed because I saw ads on his channel about a week ago.
