Tips To Help Your YouTube Channel

Long Runs The Fox said:

Interactions, and views, are registered by the algorithm regardless of source.
For example, 1000 views from one panel, and 1000 likes from another panel; all will be registered.
However to maximise the weighting by the algorithm they should ideally be from the same source.
1000 views, and 1000 likes, all coming from matching sources.
In reality this is expensive to do using panels.
Currently I am buying views, plus likes from the same source.
The typical like ratio is 30% of the view volume.
For example 1000 views, and 300 likes from the same source.
That is enough for the algorithm to weight the views and move the content up in the rankings.
So it isn't necessary to have 1000 views plus 1000 interactions matching to have the desired effect, 30% interaction rate is enough.
This is based on massive volumes being used. The positive effect is reduced exponentially when the volume is decreased.
1000 views and 300 interactions; isn't going to multiple the positive ranking effect like 100,000 views plus 30,000 interactions etc.

yes I understand this. but youtubes algorithm should easily be able to differentiate if the interactions are coming from the same accounts that actually watch the video. likes from smm panels are from accounts that don't view the video, so they wouldn't have any ranking benefit for the video except having a good ratio of views to likes. the accounts that watch the video should be the same accounts that also like the video. if I'm wrong, and it's still as simple as buying likes from a panel to rank a video, then I'd be happy as it's alot easier than managing thousands of youtube accounts.

All views, and all interactions have a positive effect in ranking content.
In simple terms, the more volume of both, the greater positive ranking effect.
Yes, the algorithm is able to identify the source of a view, and interaction; as matching or not matching.
Matching sources of views, and interactions; are weighted more than not matched; however all are beneficial to content ranking.
"so they wouldn't have any ranking benefit for the video except having a good ratio of views to likes"
You have answered your own question; a good ratio of views to likes has ranking benefit; regardless of the source of views and likes.
I understand what you are seeking, an easy method of lumping on views and likes from the same panel, so the algorithm detects the matching source and ranks the content higher.
Unfortunately ranking content isn't as simple as that. Other methods need to be used as well to maximise the gains.
The Vietnamese and Russians are doing precisely what you speak of, managing thousands of YouTube accounts.
They are able to scale this up to volumes more than you could imagine. Tens of thousands of accounts, viewing and interacting with hundreds of thousands of videos, every hour of every day.
That is what you are up against in trying to get your content to rank, buying views, and likes from panels.
You see with thousands of accounts, all suggesting content from their thousands of playlists; the cumulative effect is scaled to incredible levels.
Every video is constantly pushed up the rankings by the algorithm as another 100K views, and 100K interactions are added to the video.
This is why I said before, the viewer retention isn't as important; 30 seconds or 5 minutes etc. When the volume of views and interactions is scaled up so much.
The source of views and interactions matching, and the algorithm recognising also isn't as important, when the volumes are so massive.
In simple terms 100K views and 100K interactions on a video will make it rank higher; from the same source, or different sources.
I am using a panel that supplies views with 30% interactions matching those views. That is enough to make my content rank higher.
It is possible to use 100% matching views, and interactions; but this is too expensive to make it viable; which is why so few panels offer it as a paid service.

Is it OK to do livestreams and uploading normal videos in the same channel ?

Yes. Live streams are beneficial for subscriber growth if you collaborate with larger channels.
The rule is, never collaborate with smaller channels, always larger.
You will gain many views, and subscribers, live streaming with larger channels; as their subscribers will also watch your content.
It isn't worth live streaming on your own, unless you have a large subscriber number that will Superchat revenue during the stream.
The obstacle is getting a larger channel to live stream with you, as they will usually want you to come on their live stream as a guest, so they gain the Superchats, and AdSense revenue; rather than your channel.
Live streaming has positive effects on a channel, not negative.

I am currently chatting with a larger channel.
168K subscribers, 21.4M total views.
Their videos regularly do 100-600K views, 2K comments, 5K likes typically.
They have had some videos go viral, and all their videos are ranking highly.
Hence my interest in the channel, and wanting to know what methods they are using.
Naturally they are only willing to divulge some of the methods they use.
However one thing I found is they are spending 1K USD per video on views, and likes.
Their content output is only 1 video per week, 52 videos per annum, so a 4K per month, or 52K per annum spend.
They are reinvesting the AdSense revenue back in to their channel monthly to pay the 1K expense of buying views and likes.
So how do they make money when they are spending the revenue the channel generates on the channel itself?
Brand payments, and also they use their channel to market their own products to their target customers.
The revenue from brand payments, plus sales revenue; is many times more than the AdSense revenue the channel has generated; even with 21.4M views.
I am in the same product review niche, and using the same method; although doing what they do on a smaller scale with a higher content output of 4 videos per week.
I do not spend anything like 1K per month on views, and likes to move my content up the rankings and gain 100-600K views per video.
However this gives an interesting insight into the figures of a channel this size.
The channel has been approached by a strategist that offered to make it blow up for a cut of the revenue; but they turned the offer down.
Reason being, the deal was the strategist would control the content presentation style. Something they want to retain ownership of.
So this gives you an idea of what it takes to make a channel blow up, or their videos to go viral; 52K USD per annum, 1K USD per video.
Now you see a lot of the service providers on here are Walter Mitty fantasists that cannot deliver anything like these results.
The reality is the majority of small channels do not have a 1K USD per video budget, but that is what it takes to make a channel blow up.
There are a lot of Walter Mitty's and scammers offering advice, and paid services to make your content rank, or go viral, etc.
I will clarify something to you; the large channels that have the knowledge of how to do this, and the correct method; are not selling it on here.
The content creators that give some of this knowledge back to the community free of charge, they are the ones making the real gains on their channels.
Think about it, if a Walter Mitty on here needs to sell you his advice, or service on here; then he isn't making serious revenue from his own channel.
If he was, then he wouldn't be dependant on selling a service on here. Someone that can really make a video go viral, is making money from his videos going viral; not selling the method to you. That is the reality.
One thing you will notice about my posts is this; I never offer to sell my advice, or a service. Reason being, I have a successful channel that consistently makes monthly profit.
I do not need to make money from this forum like the Walter Mitty's telling you "how to make your video go viral" etc.
What it comes down to is this, its 1K per video to make your video rank highly and go viral. That's the deal.
You don't have 1K per video to invest? Then it isn't happening for your content. That's the deal.

If you need advice on something that isn't already covered by that; feel free to private message me and ask the question.
The point is, you message me, not the other way round.
The approach you should be taking is this;
Thank you for your posts. There is something not covered I would like your advice on. Please can I private message you?

1. why your first channel got terminated?
2. do you turn off monetization for a video when buying views?

Great and useful tips .Keep sharing!​

Personally I think; the tip “Be consistent” is the key for success in YouTube.​

Consistency is key to growth on YouTube, as it can take time and experimentation to get viewers into the habit of watching a channel regularly.
In order to keep viewers coming back to watch, creators have found success with strategies like uploading consistently on a schedule. This helps viewers know when to expect new content.

The artificially high volume of views, and likes, on my 314 videos meant my content was repeatedly flagged by the algorithm.
The mistake I made was lumping on too much volume in too short a period of time, rather than gradually ramping up the supply.
I have now learned the hard lesson; no gains for 4-6 hours. From 8 hours on my supply heats up, from 12 on its peak supply until completed within 24 hours.
This doesn't trigger the algorithm as although it recognises botted views, and likes; the rate of delivery is steady, rather than lumped on too fast.
I never turn monetisation off.

Yes, this one one of my points in my first post.
Uploading on the same day, same time, every week; maximises views.
Rather than uploading on random days, at random times.
I am currently uploading 4 videos per week Monday-Thursday, always 3.00pm; as the majority of my subscribers are in America; and my analytics show this is the sweet spot to maximise my views.
Consistency is also important in content. I have made 174 videos in the last 20 months. From video 1 to 174 the content is the same format; always 10-15 minutes.

thank you for the valuable information!

How do you know that your content was constantly flagged by the algorithm when buying views?

This should be helpful to newbies

is 1000 views bought through panels enough to rank with likes? or should we go all in on views like 20k-100k to rank?

Thank you for your valuable information
I have few questions
1. How to get views from suggestions, my videos 90% views from browser features.
2. My channel has 100k subs but I am getting only <500 views in 24 hr. Most of the time it struck below 1000, so what will be the reason.
3. Will buying views, like and comment help to increase the view count.
4. Will buying views hurt my channel earning.
5. What are all the points should consider before buying views.

YouTube emailed me warnings I was breaching their T&C's, prior to terminating my channel.

1. How to get views from suggestions, my videos 90% views from browser features.
You move your content up in the rankings, by buying high volumes of views, and likes, from a panel.
2. My channel has 100k subs but I am getting only <500 views in 24 hr. Most of the time it struck below 1000, so what will be the reason.
The algorithm isn't moving your content up in the rankings to suggest it to more viewers.
3. Will buying views, like and comment help to increase the view count.
In high volumes, yes.
4. Will buying views hurt my channel earning.
No. AdSense is earned on every view that watches an ad.
5. What are all the points should consider before buying views.
Reliability of service. Price of service. Speed of delivery. Views have to be non-drop.

I need more information on your channel.
The answer varies depending on many factors.
Subscriber number, total channel view number, typical video view number, like number, comment number.
For a small channel 1000 views, plus 1000 interactions; has greater positive effect.
Doing the same on a larger channel will have negligible effect.
So the answer depends on the aforementioned.
The algorithm will see a 10K channel that usually does 1K views, and 500 likes; now getting 10K views and 1000 likes, as a positive so moves it up the rankings.
With a larger channel, it will take more volume to gain the same effect, 100K views, 10K comments, 5K likes, etc.
So you see I cannot answer your question without you giving me your channel numbers.
There isn't one method that works for every size of channel.
It isn't as simple as; lump on 10K views plus 10K likes on every video, and every video will move up the rankings and be suggested by the algorithm to viewers.
It also isn't as simple as lumping on 100K views on a video.
Reason being, if your next video only does 10K views, the algorithm sees your channel as dropping from 100K views per video to only 10K views.
Therefore your content gets dropped in the rankings, rather than moving up in the rankings.
If you are going to lump on 10K views, you need to be sustaining that for every video.
In simple terms; high volume views, plus high volume interactions; make content move up the rankings and be suggested.
There isn't a fixed number of views, or interactions, that will guarantee content ranking and being suggested.
In the last 20 months I have gradually ramped up the volume of views, and likes, my 167 videos have gained.
The cumulative effect of this is my total channel views are now in the millions.
So you see I don't just lump on the same volume every video, it has gradually been ramped up over 20 months.
So if your videos are doing 1K views now, don't lump 10K or 100K on the next one.
You need to gradually ramp it up from 1K to 2K to 5K to 10K to 20K to 50K per video etc, over months.
This makes the algorithm gradually move up your content in the rankings with every upload progressively.

See screenshot below.
In 2017 you were asking a similar question.
When I see someone on a forum asking the same questions for 4 years it is a red flag to me.
