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?
 
Invidious seen in the search results is just a YouTube mirroring website for watching videos privately. Are the rest of these not sites just those that scrape YouTube videos and embed them?
 
I think he has other ways of generating views.
 
I have seen some influencers do that to their Instagram or other social media handles to use them as a parasite website building spammy, diversified links around it in bulk. But that news is very funny "Beautiful alien seduces men to her room....." where's the alien at? i am in lol.

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.

Basically mother child instagram method but for Youtube. The risk with this method is low retention but if you make good relevant content you should get mediuim to high retention.

However I disagree with Mr Beast. They purposely don't promote there content from other channels so that they can test the algorithm.

Bruh... this answer makes so much sense. Thanks man I truly appreciate you responding. It was driving me crazy not knowing how these new channels kept blowing up so easily but now I know :)
 
They may be driving taffic from big pages or Facebook.

they do that.
they have confirmed ways to make good HQ videos blow up in algo..
however from internal news i do know that they also cross promote channels with big channels.

mrbeast probably rumuored to have connection with owning many channels and splitting profits with the owners in exchange of revnenue.

also fake views and engagement might be a thing like music videos.
he gets views at those levels that most youtubers dont.

however the russians are already doing it, not a big deal.

Mr beast channels are run with the help of Youtube expert, Derral Eves. He knows how to get views out of thin air.
Hes explained many times how he tests the algorithm instead of doing cross promotion or any form of promotion.

His methods are organic, although ofcourse hes probably running a his own view bot.
He even has an AI bot that rates how good the thumbnail is.

yes im aware about this that he can pull views out of thin air, and he aint lying.

myself tested his method, how to get views out of thin air,
it is by making algorithm optimized content and yes it works.

mainly in MC niche i have tested.

but cross promotion and bots make life easier.
you just need dead channel or zero subs channel and you can blow it up with ease with low effort content.

how you tested it and whats his method?
what you mean with "making algorithm optimized content"?
it sounds like it aint that impressive to get views on zero subscirber channel
but cross promotion and bots make life easier.
you probably mean to promote with many big channels one small dead channel via community tab and endscreen right?
is this method really that effective? i mean you just put the viewership from one channel to another.

That's not how it works man. There are dozens more metrics that matter- audience retention, click through rate, engagement.
1 000 000 views with a 30 secs retention on a 15 minute video is a HUGE res flag for the algorithm.

thats one of the known method how it works.
i did not say that you can have a trash video and expect algo to suggest you.

the video itself has to be decent/algo optimized and then promoted with such methods to get explosive views.

"30 secs retention on a 15 minute video is a HUGE res flag for the algorithm"

what red flag?
maybe you wont get suggested but nothing will happen to the channel and that's about it.
when you are saying "red flag",
sounds like you talking about some kind of ban will happen the the channel?
not sure what you trying to say

Hey bro,

Whats your approach when you enter a niche with a bunch of competition who already make high quality content?

Do you also create high quality content and use your knowledge of gaining views to take a piece of the market, or do you have some way to dominate over the existing competition?

Thx

there is always enough views for everyone.
just make good content.
does not matter howmuch saturation is there.

when new channels are made and does better than the big competitors, views will go to those new channels.
as youtube gives them a chance
