All right. So, you saw the title, thumbnail. You saw how long this video is. So, I want to just do a quick little thing real quick and tell you guys if you want to go to a specific point and
00:07
Speaker A
you want to know anything like in this course in general, just go to the description, look at the tags. There's going to be tags of wherever you need to go. So, you can just jump around there.
00:14
Speaker A
And guys, one tip before we start, get a notebook, take some notes. It's going to be information packed. I've done YouTube for the past eight years. I've generated billions and millions views, 31 billion views in total. We're getting like 1 to
00:25
Speaker A
1.5 billion views a month. And we have 38 automated channels right now on shorts. So, we've scaled lots of students up. We've scaled lots of my own channels up. So, this video is going to be very, very information-packed. All
00:34
Speaker A
right, so get a notebook, get ready to study, and take as much information you need. This is going to be a banger.
00:38
Speaker A
Enjoy, guys. So, we pulled close to 1.5 billion views this month just across all the 36 channels we're running right now. Now, that may sound like a lot, but that's also through a lot of different niches.
00:50
Speaker A
So, in this video, I'm going to explain every single niche you guys can use to actually help you grow your channel. I'm also going to be ranking them in a tier list so you guys can kind of understand
00:58
Speaker A
what's going to work, what's okay, and what's definitely not going to work and you should stay away from. Also, this is day three of the V maximizing boot camp.
01:04
Speaker A
If you haven't already watched days one and two, just go ahead and watch them now. I go over a lot of information in this boot camp. And, you know, over the next 30 days, I'm going to be basically
01:11
Speaker A
sharing everything I've learned over the past eight years and my 26 billion generated views. So, I think this knowledge is pretty, um, valuable and I'm giving it for free for you guys. So, if you want to check it, you can also look
01:20
Speaker A
at the YouTube playlist as well. I have it all listed there. Just literally just click on it and watch it. No opt-in required. All right, let's just get into this. Um, we're going to go, uh, you know, go through each one then explain
01:31
Speaker A
it in detail so you guys know why it's good or bad. So, the first one we have is motivation or hope. So, this niche, it's okay. I'd put it in probably B tier just because the RPMs for these niches
01:42
Speaker A
are very, very high because you have people like Alexi, David Goggins, uh, you know, these people have a very high United States audience and because of that you're going to have higher RPMs. Now, the problem with this is
01:53
Speaker A
there's just not a lot of people who actually care about it. A lot of people don't even know who David Goggins is or Alex Mosie is. So, it's very limited, but you can make a lot of money from it.
02:01
Speaker A
We have some channels making around anywhere from $4 to $6,000 a month with just talking about people like Mr. Beast or Alexi or David Goggins and doing motivational content. Now, this is only one channel we're actually running here.
02:11
Speaker A
And their income is kind of inconsistent. So, that's why I'm putting it in B tier. It's not the worst, but it's not the best either. The second one we have is cars or car edits. Now, car edits, I would actually put in A tier
02:23
Speaker A
because it is very easy for anyone to be able to watch a car edit and be able to actually enjoy it. You don't have to be a car fan to be able to watch a car edit because you see it and you think, "Ooh,
02:33
Speaker A
that's so cool." Right? So, as long as you are making good content in the car niche, you will get pushed out. Also, the car community has a very strong community of people who actually like, you know, watching this stuff. So, as
02:45
Speaker A
long as you make a, you know, an edit of a car look really nice, it will get pushed out regardless. Now, the iShow speed edits, the infamous iShow speed, W speed, these videos do very, very well immediately putting this in S tier. Um,
03:00
Speaker A
we have a couple channels as well that are running this and we're scaling it up very quickly. Some of them are at 6K, some of them at 10K a month. And these channels are just crushing right now. I don't know if you guys have seen it, but
03:09
Speaker A
um, the iShow speed community is just so big. When you do an iShow speed edit, just you have everyone from the community flocking in and doing the W speed at the end. Just immediately it gets more engagement. The RPMs are
03:21
Speaker A
pretty okay. They're like around 20 cents, you know, so it's not like the worst, not the best, but speed has a very large United States audience. So, you know, it's a very, very good niche to get into. Also, it's really easy to
03:30
Speaker A
source clips. You won't get to monetize because speed allows you to be able to source his clips. Um, so, you know, I think it's pretty good. Also, moving on to as well. Another doing iShow speed, the skull edits. I'm actually going to
03:41
Speaker A
put this in, uh, A tier. It should be in B, but recently there's been more of an uptrend. Uh, YouTube actually doesn't like the skull edits, surprisingly enough. Um, the skull edits niche is not really ideal for long-term growth. Your
03:55
Speaker A
channel will spike and then it'll die down. Making a reformative skull edited video is pretty difficult because a lot of these videos that are being uploaded, they're basically videos that have been posted everywhere on the internet. So, um, you know, you're most likely not
04:07
Speaker A
going to get as many views because, uh, of viewer, um, fatigue. You know, they see the same clips over and over again. If you find new clips and then you post it, uh, and you probably can squeeze through
04:18
Speaker A
YouTube's policies, but it's just a little, you know, it's okay, right? It's okay. Uh, you know, I have a couple channels that are making money from it, but, you know, I always have the risk of like, okay, hopefully we don't lose this
04:28
Speaker A
channel because it gets demonetized or something else. All right. Now, yeah, that's why I put it in A tier because it's still popping right now. You can still pull a crazy amount of views. And remember, I'm ranking these in best, uh,
04:39
Speaker A
niches to get into to make the most money and get the most amount of views.
04:43
Speaker A
For example, David Goggins, you know, this motivational, it, it's good for making money, but, you know, you're going to get more views and make more money here in the iShow speed niche. All right, next is anime edits. I'm going to be
04:54
Speaker A
honest, guys. I'm going to put anime edits in C tier. Actually, I'm going to put it in D tier. The reason why is because there's a lot of copyright strikes going on right now, and anime is one of them. If you do any type of anime
05:05
Speaker A
edits, you will have some random Japanese company that's going to come after you because they don't like you using their content. So, I recommend not using anime edits. A lot of companies or channels that are actually just running
05:16
Speaker A
anime channels in general, they're demonetized. That's why they have Patreon, so you can subscribe to them.
05:20
Speaker A
Um, you know, just in general, anime is not the best niche to get into. I know a lot of you guys, you know, some of you probably watch it and it's really not a good thing to get into. All right. Now,
05:29
Speaker A
we have movie edits, like Marvel edits or any type of shows. These I'm going to put in C tier. Right? If you're doing Marvel, it is okay. The problem is Marvel will come after you, right? Same thing with anime edits. But the thing
05:42
Speaker A
is, a lot of these movies are American owned. So, they're a little more lenient if you're really, really reformative. But at the end of the day, if you're using a movie clip from, you know, a movie, they have the rights to
05:53
Speaker A
that movie and they can take you down regardless of what you do. Um, so yeah, I recommend not really using any type of anime or movie clips, but I'm going to put movies above anime because you're less likely to get demonetized and
06:05
Speaker A
there's more chance to do reformative content. Next, we have hope core content. So, this is a little different from motivational. It's more hope like the Superman and then you have some type of, um, like meme that
06:18
Speaker A
good people. It's more hope. Now, this um if you do ranking with this right here, I'm going to put this in B tier next to David Gogggins, but the difference here with uh the uh HopeCore niche is it's a little easier to output
06:33
Speaker A
content if you just have like uh you know, a still image. Now, you can potentially get demonetized because it may not be reformative enough if you're stealing people's you know, content, but as long as it's reformative, it's okay.
06:44
Speaker A
The RPM is decent if it's in English. Um, but you h will have a lot of uh older people watching this, which is why you're going to have higher RPMs. All right, now we're getting into more better niches like ranking. Now, a lot
06:55
Speaker A
of people think ranking is dead, and I would put this in S tier. All right, because I actually have two ranking channels that we're running right now, but one of the channels that was making 10K per month recently got demonetized.
07:05
Speaker A
So, I'm going to put this in a tier. The reason why is because ranking is pretty easy to get to monetize with. The reason why is because again you're using other people's content. But it is good because if you're reformative enough and you
07:18
Speaker A
squeak through the cracks, you can pretty much have a channel that's, you know, pushing pretty hard. But eventually you may get cow on to like some type of demonetization or some strike. You know, even the channel that we're running right now has currently
07:29
Speaker A
two strikes on the other ranking channel. Now, luckily we run underneath different LLC's and then we have different Gmails underneath those as well. And then we have different digital addresses um just to you know dilute risk of having our entire assets account
07:42
Speaker A
taken down. But overall ranking is still a good thing to get into. I wouldn't like stop it. And like also with SOAR AI which we're going to get into a little later in this uh in this ranking I
07:52
Speaker A
really recommend doing ranking to start off because it helps you understand how to source clips, how to pace clips and overall how to actually just you know make better videos and understanding what goes viral and what doesn't. Okay.
08:03
Speaker A
Commentary. All right. Now commentary. This is a huge niche to get into. There's so much um you know things that you can do with commentary. You can do commentary on animals. You could do commentary on ranking. You could do
08:15
Speaker A
commentary on cards. You could do commentary on drama. Like it doesn't really matter what it is. So I'm going to put this in S tier, right? Because just commentary is a great niche to get into. So much versatility with it. Um
08:27
Speaker A
and personally, we have a lot of channels that are doing well with commentary. I would recommend getting into commentary if you know it's one of your first channels because it's just going to take teach you pacing and everything else with the YouTube game.
08:38
Speaker A
And also like when you look at your retention graph when you're doing commentary and you're able to see, hey, this dip happened here, you can literally go back to where whatever your AI or whatever you said in this video
08:48
Speaker A
and say, "Hey, okay, I said 'the' two times. I'm not going to say the two times next time." Or you're going to see, "Hey, I was kind of repeating myself here. I'm not going to do that again." and then you can instantly get
08:58
Speaker A
feedback in your next video. So commentary is a very W niche to get into. Next one is ranking plus commentary. All right, so we have ranking here and commentary here. We're going to put the ranking plus commentary immediately in S tier as well. I know
09:11
Speaker A
commentary and ranking plus commentary is kind of the same thing, but I like putting this one a little bit differently. The reason why is because you can also do um you know ranking plus commentary is a little bit more advanced
09:23
Speaker A
because it after you master the ranking and after you master the commentary, if you do ranking plus commentary, it's reformative. You get lots of viral clips and you can get pushed out to a way wider audience. I would say the only
09:33
Speaker A
downside of commentary is it's only the English speakers. Let's say someone speaks Portuguese or someone speaks Spanish or someone speaks uh Japanese or someone speaks uh Arabic or whatever it is, right? They won't understand the English. and because they don't
09:46
Speaker A
understand English, they won't be able to watch the videos and you will limit your reach. Now, there's an argument that you can have higher RPMs if you're doing content in only, you know, one language because let's say it's English,
09:55
Speaker A
you're going to have a lot higher RPMs because English speakers have more money. But regardless, I would say commentary and ranking is a great niche.
10:03
Speaker A
Sora AI. All right. Now, Sora AI is actually a much newer niche and we're putting this right in S tier as well. We have two channels we're running right now. One of them has gotten 225,000 subscribers within three weeks of doing
10:16
Speaker A
so AI commentary plus the four call to action method. Now, I'm not going to explain that in this video because remember this is day three of the boot camp. We're going to go into that a little more later. Um, but you know,
10:27
Speaker A
it's a great niche to get into regardless. So, AI is pretty w. Um, Roblox guys, we're going to put this immediately in D. No, I'm just kidding, guys. STR of course as well. Roblox is a really good niche to get into if you
10:40
Speaker A
haven't already. Roblox is killing it right now. We have one channel uh that we own that's currently at 500 million views this month on Roblox. We also have a lot of our students in Roblox as well, pulling anywhere from 60 to 300 million
10:53
Speaker A
views as well. So, we're crushing it in Roblox. It's just a lot of money to get into now. And I'm sure you guys have heard of like, you know, nits or steel brain rot. Those are the best niches to
11:04
Speaker A
get into Roblox right now. If you're going to get into Roblox, do a popular game. Don't do some random game or else it won't get as much views. Um, now I'm sure you guys know Roblox rants where you have a Roblox character in the
11:15
Speaker A
background and then you have ranting. I'm gonna be honest, guys. I'm going to put this in Btier, right? The reason why is because rant videos, they do okay.
11:23
Speaker A
Now, we have one of our students who are actually running uh a Roblox rants channel right now, but it's it's it's doing good. you know, like they're at like 6Kish per month right now, but there's not too much scalability with
11:34
Speaker A
it, which is why we're trying to automate it and get to other channels. The reason why is because Roblox plus Rant is going to limit yourself to people who only like Roblox and only speak English. Because of that
11:44
Speaker A
limitation, you're going to also get limited reach as well. All right, Fortnite. A lot of you guys uh probably used to play Fortnite and don't play anymore because it's kind of dying. Uh but Fortnite is still doing okay. I'm
11:57
Speaker A
gonna put this in B tier just because there's still a lot of viewers here playing Fortnite, but the views have dropped off a lot. We still have a couple um people in our community who are running Fortnite games, but they're
12:08
Speaker A
not really performing the way they need to. I would, you know, they're getting from like $3 to $5,000 a month. A lot of Fortnite creators have died down in views because Fortnite is a kind of a dying game uh in terms of viewership
12:18
Speaker A
because a lot of people who used to watch it have moved on to Roblox or just grown up, you know. Now, the Fortnite Plus commentary, we're going to put this in Ctier because it's kind of the same thing in Roblox. It's just it's more
12:30
Speaker A
limited reach. All right. Now, now we have like Speedy McQueen or Spice or these type of commentary skit guys. If you can make really good skits, because remember this is a very low barrier to entry niche. And because this is a very
12:45
Speaker A
low barrier to entry niche, it is really easy to get into it. Now, you have to be willing to show your face and to be able to make funny content. Now, this content is very easy to go viral if you can make
12:56
Speaker A
good content. It is very hard to get into. So, I'm going to put this in S tier because it takes a lot of skill. I actually have a talking head videos I do on my Instagram and Tik Tok as well.
13:05
Speaker A
And, you know, we have our Instagram at 40,000 followers. We have two Tik Toks at over 10,000 each and we do commentary on there as well. Now, commentary on Roblox with skits is way harder to do.
13:16
Speaker A
it's really high barrier uh to entry. But regardless, it's still really good if you can get into it and you want to start a personal brand that can scale later into something bigger, then do skits. Also, if you're running any type
13:28
Speaker A
of business, just learning the idea of doing skits in general is just really good. If you can do skits, you will get more reach and build personality with your audience. Now, we're going to talk about news. All right, so before I
13:38
Speaker A
actually rank this one, I want you guys to understand that news is only going to be particular to people in certain demographics. For example, if there's news on Trump, people in uh you know, America who are older are probably going
13:51
Speaker A
to care about that more than people who are younger, and you're going to limit your reach, but you're also going to increase your RPM. You can also do news on certain topics, like for example, if you play Fortnite, you can do Fortnite
14:01
Speaker A
news, and then you're going to have a certain subniche of that as well. If you're going to do news and for example, Hollow Knights, right? You can do a Hollow Night news. Hollow Night's like a game, and you can do like news in that.
14:10
Speaker A
Now, do I recommend you start a news channel or a news commentary channel? It's okay. You can make money from it.
14:18
Speaker A
It's also relying on there's trending news. If there's not trending news, then you really aren't going to go viral. And I want you guys to get consistent money over a long period of time. I don't want you guys to get into something that's
14:27
Speaker A
going to make you, you know, get viral and then you're going to die off as well. For example, with all the stuff happening in Jamaica right now, it's very awful and there's been lots of news around it. We have one of our students
14:37
Speaker A
who are making commentary around this and just basically spreading the information to people. He had a viral video that got like 5 million views and then he made another one because the news has kind of died down from it. It's
14:47
Speaker A
now back down to like 30k 40k jail. So I'm going to put this in C tier. The limit is it's limited by reach and language and we don't want to really be limited. All right. Reddit stories. I'm sure you guys remember when Reddit
15:00
Speaker A
stories was a very very popular thing. Um and it still is okay. It doesn't have as much reaches as it before cuz it's kind of died down, but it still does do okay. So, we're actually going to put
15:11
Speaker A
this in a tier. We have some channels that are making like 9 to $12,000 a month on ranking. So, I or on Reddit.
15:19
Speaker A
So, I recommend you guys can try it. It's really easy to source content. You can do commentary over it. You can argue this is commentary, but you know, it's okay. And then last one we're going to do that's still kind of popping is um
15:32
Speaker A
did you know content? So like did you know is like you know did you know that in the flash he can do this or did you know that in this show this guy can do this or did you know that Messi or
15:42
Speaker A
Ronaldo or blah blah blah right I know I have flash here but this is actually more of just a did you know niche and it's more just talking about it now it's good things and bad things about this
15:51
Speaker A
niche the good things is there are subniches right so you could do you know did you know in DC you could do did you know in a certain anime you could do did you know in a soccer player you could do
16:00
Speaker A
did you know for cars you could do did you know for content creators, right?
16:04
Speaker A
So, it's a very versatile niche, but it's always going to be limited by reach because the did you know is only going to be limited to the niche that you're actually uploading in for your content.
16:12
Speaker A
We're going to put this in B tier. Uh there is good money to be made. There is sustainable money to be made. There is not a lot of reach to be made for this niche. All right, and that's everything
16:21
Speaker A
for our niches. You can see here and take this as you will. Remember, this is my experience from 36 channels and eight years of experience. This is day three of the boot camp going over niches. So, I hope this was helpful. If there's any
16:32
Speaker A
niche that I didn't cover in this video that you want me to just give a little quick feedback about, go ahead and leave a comment and I will actually respond and I will say, "Hey, this niche is not
16:40
Speaker A
good." Like, if you say, "Hey, Devin, is this niche good? Is ranking water bottles a good niche?" I'll respond to you saying, "No, it's not." Or or yes, it is. You know, so also go ahead and join the Discord if you guys haven't
16:50
Speaker A
already. It's going to be linked in the description. How to find viral niches that actually get you views and make you money. So, I've got this comment so many times on my channel, and this is day 16 of the View Maximizing Boot Camp. And I
17:03
Speaker A
want to make this very clear before we even start this video. Finding a niche is a lot easier than you think. And it's very easy to create your own niche as long as you know the process of getting
17:13
Speaker A
views because a lot of you guys are stuck in trying to find, you know, a niche that has an open market when that's not the correct mindset you should have. The correct mindset you should have is how am I going to get so
17:23
Speaker A
much views in this market that I'm just unbeatable. It's not about finding the correct niche. It's just about getting the most amount of views. A lot of you guys are getting stuck on, you know, picking like whatever audience. Like
17:36
Speaker A
say, okay, I only want to make English content because I want to increase my RPMs. Like bro, people only 1.5 billion people in the world speak English.
17:45
Speaker A
That's not even 20% of the population on Earth. And you want to target only 20%.
17:50
Speaker A
like that just doesn't make any sense. Why not target 100% of the people? So, when you're picking a niche, you need to pick something that is worldwide, right?
17:58
Speaker A
And picking something that is a worldwide niche is just a very, very good place to be because this way you can get the maximum amount of views.
18:08
Speaker A
That's how I'm getting 1.4 4 billion views a month right now across all social media platforms including YouTube, Tik Tok and Instagram on 36 channels and then I think 15 Instagrams and 10 Tik Toks, right? So I'm getting
18:21
Speaker A
lots of views right now and not all of them are Englishspeaking people. A lot of them speak Brazilian or Portuguese. A lot of them speak Spanish. A lot of them speak Hindi. There there's all different types of languages here that are, you
18:34
Speaker A
know, circulating in the social media space. It's not just English. And just because people in the United States have higher RPMs does not need mean you should be aiming for it. Because if you aim for just maximizing the amount of
18:46
Speaker A
views you can get, then you can generate 20, 30, $50,000 a month. The reason why you guys don't see any YouTube shorts creators talking about, you know, claiming that they're making, you know, $20,000 a month is because they they
19:00
Speaker A
target only specific audiences, not a wide range of people. You know, I'm getting close to 400 million views a month on just this just channel alone.
19:08
Speaker A
And I will tell you it is over $20,000 and I have it blurred out right now because my business partners asked me not to show it, but it's over 20,000 which means you could be doing the same thing if you were view maximizing. So as
19:21
Speaker A
for picking the niche, what I usually do is I use Verlo AI. So what I do is I go to Verlo AAI and I literally just go to the dashboard and I just scroll down and these are like literally top videos that
19:31
Speaker A
is performing in the past day and you can see like a lot of them like I see two videos on you know this this little dance thing that happened. I see Roblox which is always popping by the way and
19:42
Speaker A
if you just literally hit the little arrow you can just see all of the you know videos that are performing very very well and you're going to notice something. Roblox performs very well. I do recommend going in the Roblox niche
19:52
Speaker A
if you guys haven't already. There is so many opportunities in Roblox and the viewers are just insane. U I'm seeing some soccer videos. I'm seeing, you know, whatever this is. So, you know, when I'm looking at this, I'm just
20:05
Speaker A
looking at the analytics and, you know, if we scroll down, we can go by different types of niches. It's a little all over the place right now, but like for example, if I click on Brain Rot, I'd be able to see in like the past 5
20:13
Speaker A
days what Brain Rot's looking like. And it looks like just across YouTube, um, see here, across YouTube and Tik Tok, we're getting around 134.9 million views in total across, you know, these platforms, which is Brain Rot. I don't think this includes Roblox,
20:31
Speaker A
by the way. So, Roblox Brain Rot is its own niche. This is just more like Skibb toilet type stuff. So, I mean, I would use Verlo to just find uh niches. I think it's a great thing to start. I
20:41
Speaker A
mean, you could just look at the first link in the description or maybe the second link and just, you know, check out Verlo. It's a great app. So, now that you found your niche, let's talk about what type of niches I recommend
20:52
Speaker A
personally that you could be using. And I think there's four main ones that I think anyone could start at any level.
21:00
Speaker A
So, the first one I would recommend is definitely clipping. Now, clipping is still very popular. Contrary to what most people think, thinking that clipping, you know, gets people banned and there's not a lot of opportunities with clipping. There is a lot of
21:12
Speaker A
opportunities. Literally, a channel that I started not even a couple days ago just hit its first million view video within eight videos of just clipping content. And if I I'll be honest with you guys, the content is I show speed.
21:24
Speaker A
I'm just going to let you guys know now. He will never strike you. If you want to start a clipping channel, start an I show speed clipping channel. But I will warn you, it is very, very editing intensive. And clipping is a very
21:33
Speaker A
editing intensive niche. So that, you know, remember that when you're going into the skill. All right. The second niche I would recommend other than clipping is probably some type of gaming channel. You know, it doesn't have to be, you know, Roblox. It could be
21:45
Speaker A
Fortnite. It could be something more niche like Among Us. I mean, I recommend personally Fortnite or or Roblox. Roblox is probably the biggest one right now.
21:52
Speaker A
Um, so I mean, if you guys are going to run a gaming niche, run a Roblox niche, just because there's just so much money to be made here. It is filthy how much money there is to be made. Um, the third
22:02
Speaker A
one I would recommend is probably AI. AI is kind of died down a little bit because people are kind of getting used to it. But if you're creative with it, you can make a lot of really good AI
22:10
Speaker A
content. And this is really storyline driven. Um, so make sure that when you're doing this, you have good storyb buildinging skills because if you don't, it's going to be really difficult for you to actually make, you know, good
22:20
Speaker A
money with this because retention with AI videos is awful unless you are actually um have good story story building. And then the last niche that I would probably recommend um is maybe sports. sports uh is is a little more
22:35
Speaker A
niche, but if you are focusing on you know really big sports like you know for example uh soccer then you are going to make a lot of money with this um and the reason why is just because everyone can
22:46
Speaker A
watch um sports you know it's not very uh something that is restricted by language. So, of the two of these, um, I would recommend that, you know, probably Roblox and AR probably the two biggest ones. And then I would put like, you
23:02
Speaker A
know, clipping and sports in second behind that. Um, but other than that, I think those are the main niches that I would be focusing on if I were you guys and I was trying to actually, you know, build an audience. Uh, because, you
23:14
Speaker A
know, in order to actually make a lot of money, what do we need? We need a lot of views, right? And I see a lot of people when they're looking for a niche, um, you know, they think, "Okay, I'm going
23:25
Speaker A
to look for my competitors and I'm just going to copy exactly what they're doing." But the problem with that is you have to innovate, right? And, oh wait, sorry to jump all over the place. One more thing, I recommend ranking as well.
23:36
Speaker A
Ranking is a very good niche. I know a lot of people say ranking um is not a good niche because you get copyright stroken, but as long as you make the content edited and original, ranking is a really good niche. Like I know a guy
23:46
Speaker A
who's making 60K a month. um he's pulling close to 1.5 billion views a month across uh just his one YouTube channel with just ranking content. So ranking is also a really good niche I would get into if I was starting.
23:58
Speaker A
Anyways, when you're picking your niche, um do not limit yourself by, you know, specifically just saying what my competitors are doing because you need to be able to improve upon your competitor's content and do better than them. So if you see your competitor is
24:11
Speaker A
doing, you know, you know, 1.5 billion views a month, look at their content and be like, okay, how could I improve upon this? What could I do? He's getting 1.5 billion views a month. What's his, you know, audience? It's probably a lot of
24:23
Speaker A
English speaking people. How could I target, you know, English speaking people, Portuguese speaking people, Spanish speaking people, and Hindi speaking people? You know, if I'm targeting three more languages, how can I make more money? You know, there's all
24:34
Speaker A
different types of ways to do it. If you were doing, you know, ranking niche, how can I make it so people in any language can understand even if it was in English, you know, these are thinking processes that you guys need to figure
24:45
Speaker A
out? And it is a thinking problem. It's not a finding a niche problem. It is a thinking problem. It is about intelligence and figuring out what to do because this is all a thinking game.
24:55
Speaker A
Everything you're doing. And in the course of like, you know, when I'm teaching my students, I help them with showing them exactly how to, you know, increase your thinking process to be able to find, you know, the solution.
25:08
Speaker A
Cuz when you're looking at your YouTube analytics, it's not like it's just numbers. It is it is more than that.
25:14
Speaker A
It's like a language, you know, cuz there is over 30 different YouTube metrics that I analyze on every single channel that I work on. And of the 30 different YouTube metrics, each one of them tells a different story and tells
25:26
Speaker A
me the solution to whatever problem I'm facing. If I'm in stuck in view jail, I look at all 30 analytics and I'm like, "Huh, this analytic, this analytic, this analytic is lacking here. My casual viewers are lower than I should be. My
25:38
Speaker A
swipe ratio is lower than it should be." If I look at my retention graphs, instead of it looking like this, it Let's do it again. Instead of my retention graph looking like, you know, this gez, I'll make it green. this my
25:51
Speaker A
retention graph is looking more like this. And what that means is there's a big dip over here. So, huh, maybe I should increase um my uh retention in the beginning of my video, increase my swipe ratio, increase my casual viewers,
26:05
Speaker A
and then maybe my niche will perform better. Or maybe I'm not uploading for a long enough period of time, or maybe my channel is just not there. There's just so many ways you can read your analytics to be able to understand what's wrong
26:17
Speaker A
with your channel. But if you don't actually look and know how to read the language, then you're not going to be able to improve upon it. And that's kind of why I recommend, you know, doing a lot of trial and error because trial and
26:31
Speaker A
error is a great source of knowledge because the more you fail, the more you learn, right? That's that's how I got here at this point. I mean, just look at all the channels that I'm running right now. Do you see this? Look at this. Look
26:44
Speaker A
at all the channels that I'm running right now. You think that just came from just Oh, okay. Almost start uploading.
26:50
Speaker A
Guys, this is a trial and error process. I've been doing this for seven, eight years now. My first video was eight years ago. So, yeah, it's a lot of work.
26:59
Speaker A
And for those of you commenting saying, "Oh, why does this video have have uh 200 views, Devon? Why does this video only have 2,000 views?" You're lying, bro. I want you to just think about this for a second, okay? Just please think
27:14
Speaker A
about this. I'm uploading videos about getting views in a very specific niche on this channel. If you're wondering why this video maybe only has a thousand views, it's because there's only a thousand people in the world who care
27:24
Speaker A
about maximizing their views. If I was making Roblox content, this would get millions, just like my other channel.
27:32
Speaker A
Just just FYI for all the people in the comments saying, "Huh, Devin, this only this video only has 2,000 views." Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. Please just think for a second.
27:44
Speaker A
Anyways, that's going to be it for the niche finding video. If it was a little generic today, I apologize. This is day 16 of the boot camp. I mean, I kind of wanted to go into just the more basic
27:52
Speaker A
niches. And for those of you wondering, hey Devin, show us your niche. If you guys know who Moneymind uh is, Moneymind. Yeah. So, if you don't know who this guy is, this guy's name is Bennett. He owns the Moneymind Mind
28:04
Speaker A
Unfiltered, and he basically started showing all his YouTube. He is this really transparent guy. Really cool guy.
28:09
Speaker A
By the way, I've talked with lots of brands and they've literally told me that he's like the most legit guy. So, shout out to this guy. He's an absolute legend. But anyways, he basically leaked his YouTube channel, like a couple
28:19
Speaker A
different niches that he was running and then the niches became so oversaturated because when there's more supply for it, there's less demand for each individual product. And that goes for channels as well. So, if there's a thousand channels
28:30
Speaker A
uploading, you know, annual commentary, there's going to be way less demand for it because there's more supply than there is demand. And that's what he did.
28:39
Speaker A
And that's why his channel started dying. Like I don't know if you saw if you guys keep up with his stuff, but all his channels started dying. So no, I'm not going to give you my niche because if I gave you my niche, then my channel
28:50
Speaker A
will start dying cuz I have thousands of people watching this and all you guys are going to copy it and then no one's going to get views because the supply for it, you guys will be making more videos on my niche and then the channel
29:02
Speaker A
um demand will go down and that's going to make me less money. So, I'm not doing it because I'm trying to gatekeep. I'm doing it because I don't want to lose money because of that. You know, if that
29:11
Speaker A
wasn't an issue, then I would show you guys the channel, but it is an issue.
29:14
Speaker A
So, I can't show you guys the channel. You know what I mean? But I'm super happy showing you guys the analytics and stuff like that. I'm sure some of you guys can figure it out just by just by
29:22
Speaker A
looking at the subscriber count. Like, there's not a lot of channels that has 1.5 million subscribers, you know, and 300 thou 300 uh million views in 48 hours. It's It's really easy to figure out the stuff, you know, but I just
29:34
Speaker A
don't show it because I don't want to get my stuff leaked. How to find the correct niche for you. How to find untapped niches. What to do if you want to find a niche, but you can't find one.
29:45
Speaker A
Also, since a lot of you guys asked for some other channels that I run right now, here's a couple other ones. I'm going to just reload all of these for you real quick just to show you that these are all legit. Uh, my editor's of
29:55
Speaker A
course gonna have to blur them out, but you know, these are real channels that I have run that have gotten a pretty mass amount of views in the past, I don't know, couple of months or so. Um, and
30:06
Speaker A
also, we're going to go over this channel, which actually I am okay showing. So, editor, do not blur this one out. This is my test channel. All right, this channel is my test channel.
30:15
Speaker A
So, what I do on this channel is I basically upload any video that I want on here to see how YouTube will kind of react to it and see what'll go on. If you go to the shorts category, you're
30:24
Speaker A
going to see a wide variety of videos on here because I just do a lot of testing on this channel and I recommend you have a test channel as well. Anyways, let's talk about how I find my niches, guys. I
30:36
Speaker A
use Verlo AI and Verlo, it basically is a AI software that lets you look at outliers for Tik Tok and YouTube videos.
30:45
Speaker A
It lets you find upcoming niches. Um, it's it's a pretty amazing software. I mean, I mentioned it in my last video and someone asked me to go in more in depth about niche finding. So, I'm going to do that now. So, Verloai started
30:56
Speaker A
around 4 months ago and I actually got in contact with one of the founders of it and they basically let me use this for free to show you guys. I mean, I was already using it beforehand, but I
31:04
Speaker A
wanted to show you guys anyway because it's kind of what I've been using to find my niches, especially the past couple of months, which is why the past couple months I have so much channels that have been blowing up. So with
31:13
Speaker A
Verllo, it basically gives you an outlier for every single viral video on the planet that is going viral right now on Tik Tok and YouTube. It has an outlier. So you can see this one is an a,000 uh a 10,484
31:26
Speaker A
outlier and it has 62,000 views. And this video looks like it's some type of like caption or something like that with football. So I'm assuming football is kind of popping right now. We see a lot of AI videos here, but usually when I'm
31:38
Speaker A
on this platform, I go to Tik Tok because it kind of shows me um uh what's kind of be upcoming because if we're going to be, you know, uploading videos on YouTube, we want to go from Tik Tok
31:47
Speaker A
first to kind of see what's going to be popping. If we go down, we're going to see niches over here. If I click on like brain rot, for example, it's actually going to load into a new page. And then
31:56
Speaker A
on this new page, it's going to see uh you're going to be able to see like the percentage chance you have to go viral.
32:00
Speaker A
I know this says 90% chance, a negative 90% chance, but remember guys, this is in the past month. And then also what I'm teaching you guys is how to basically go viral in any niche, but you know, I use Brain Rot as a good example.
32:13
Speaker A
So, if you go down here, you're going to see all of the videos that are kind of performing well in the past month. And, you know, we could sort by YouTube or Tik Tok here. So, I'm going to sort by
32:20
Speaker A
uh Tik Tok because Tik Tok is what I like to see um if I'm going to see if a video is going viral or not. And looks like this video got 142 million views.
32:27
Speaker A
So, let's see which one this is. And it looks like it's a video of like a Wednesday doll, right? And he's just pulling back the hair. And I know this would go viral on YouTube as well because it's just it's a funny video.
32:36
Speaker A
And look at that. That's actually that's even more funny. So if you found a way, guys, to look at this and then replicate it so you can make on a new YouTube channel, maybe do this with other dolls
32:44
Speaker A
and stuff like that, I'm sure you could have a video that's probably getting 10 million views at least um at least 10 million views on YouTube. And this one got like 142 million views. And if it works on one platform, it's going to
32:54
Speaker A
work on another. And this is in the past month, by the way. So yeah, Verlo is a it's a great platform. I really do recommend using it to just find um hidden niches, find upcoming niches, and then I'm also going to talk about this
33:05
Speaker A
channel that I have here because I actually was looking on Verlo and I found this little football niche. So I uploaded on my test channel to see if it would do well. And you can see it's a four out of 10. Normally I'm not going
33:16
Speaker A
to start a channel unless I like see a one out of 10 uh on my test channel. And this has a 4 to 10. So I'm not going to be continuing testing this, you know, video. And there's also a misconception
33:26
Speaker A
as well that like when you're testing niches, you have to make a new channel every time. It's not true. That's not true at all. I just have one single test channel that I just consistently upload videos on. If the video does well or
33:35
Speaker A
not, you know, just depending if I make a new channel or not. So, if you go on that channel, you probably see a lot of like old projects I've done and stuff.
33:41
Speaker A
You guys want to look at that later. But yeah, use Verlo. It's going to be linked in the description. I really do recommend it. It's a great app to find uh hidden niches and stuff like that, outliers, and competitors. you know,
33:51
Speaker A
you're going to be able to see like, uh, United States Brain Rot has 2.5 billion views in the past month. Like, that's really good information to know cuz I have a channel that's getting, you know, close to half a billion views a month
34:02
Speaker A
right now on Brain Rot. And, you know, it's kind of Roblox and Brain Rot. So, that probably contributes to a large percentage of that, you know. Anyways, now that we kind of got that out of the way of how I find my niches, I'm going
34:12
Speaker A
to talk about how I qualify them and then what I do to make sure it is actually a niche that I can repeatably make content with. So niches, when I am finding a niche, the first thing I think
34:25
Speaker A
about after I see a video that I think is a potential outlier is I think is this outlier repeatable? Is this repeatable? Because if it's not repeatable and you're going viral one time, there's not really any point because the point of us doing this is to
34:38
Speaker A
make money consistently every month. We're not going for quick money grabs. We're looking for uh repeatable content that we can upload over a long period of time. Preferably, we want to run this channel for years and years and years,
34:48
Speaker A
eventually outsource it, maybe even sell it for even more income. So, look for outliers when you're finding your niche.
34:53
Speaker A
Now, another misconception is you cannot upload in a oversaturated niche. And this is not true. If you're looking for outliers, there's a pretty big chance there are other people who are also uploading in this niche. And there's a
35:04
Speaker A
pretty big chance it's going to be really saturated. And that's okay. Saturation is not a bad thing. It means there's a very high demand for it, right? And if there's a lot of high demand, there's a lot of high supply,
35:14
Speaker A
all you got to do is be the best supply and then all of a sudden you're going to have the most demand, right? Because all this really is is business and business all is supply and demand, right? So if
35:23
Speaker A
you are focusing on supplying the best videos possible to a audience that is demanding a lot of content, you are going to get a crap ton of views.
35:34
Speaker A
So that's kind of, you know, what I do to qualify the niche. Now, what will I actually do when I start making videos in the niche? Because, you know, I know you guys want me to start talking about
35:44
Speaker A
how to actually find the niche and actually start uploading videos in that said niche. And I'm going to say the number one thing I do after qualifying the niche itself is I'm going to look for competitors that are also getting
35:56
Speaker A
similar views. So, I look for the comp, I look for my ops, and I see if I'm going to beat them or not, right?
36:04
Speaker A
Because if we have lots of ops, but you know, we are the number one op because we are just the best view maximizer in the world, then there's a pretty big chance that you're going to make a lot
36:11
Speaker A
of money. Because again, there's lots of uh there's lots of demand. And even if there's lots of supply, if you're the best supply and you beat all competition, you're going to get what?
36:20
Speaker A
Lots of views. Because remember, this is the view maximizing boot camp. So what we're doing here is we are finding ways to just maximize the amount of views possible. Now, what are the best niches that you could upload on? Well, I would
36:32
Speaker A
go back to Verlo over here. And if I just go to the dashboard, there's going to be a little section up here that's going to load and it's going to tell me all the best niches that's going well
36:39
Speaker A
right now. So, looks like today skits, animals, ASMR, soccer clips, movie stuff. Like these ones are doing pretty well. I really I use Furlo a lot to see if any niches are like popping or not.
36:51
Speaker A
Like Roblox is popping right now. Roblox is a really good niche right now, but it, you know, it looks like skits is doing really well. So, if you guys wanted to, what you could do is you could make some skits, you know, and
37:01
Speaker A
make some really high quality skits. I know you guys know pe people like um, you know, Speedy McQueen and stuff like that. He pulled so many dude, he's making so much money. But, you know, if you can like make skits or something
37:13
Speaker A
like that because saying, you know, skits is a really good thing. So, if I went down here and I actually like found skits. So, it looks like skits has got around 5.9 billion views in just the month of September alone right now. If
37:24
Speaker A
we scroll down, we're going to see a lot of outliers over here. Like for example, like Mr. Beast over here has a skit video where he's comparing animals and stuff. And you know, I guess this AI considers it a skit, but it still
37:35
Speaker A
performs well. You know, this video, this doctor, of course, this guy always goes viral. You know, this guy always goes viral over here. And then, you know, we're just looking down a little bit more and we're going to see a lot of
37:44
Speaker A
these videos are skits. It looks like a lot of people in third world countries as well. People who are in Latin American countries. And you know what's great? If you are in a Latin American country and you're running skits and the
37:53
Speaker A
skits are high quality or you're in like a, you know, third world country, you have a very high probability to go viral because people love watching it. And what's great about skits, skits, you can watch through any language as long as
38:04
Speaker A
you're not speaking English. You're just acting everything out. You want to make sure when you're making videos, you're avoiding any type of language barriers.
38:10
Speaker A
And that's how um videos like Mr. Beast goes viral because he actually has voice actors in other countries uh who speak other languages for him. So when you're thinking about making content, you know, going back over here to getting views
38:22
Speaker A
and stuff, make sure you are, you know, trying to make content that is basically watchable over the course of any language because you don't want a language barrier to be an issue because, you know, there's only a certain amount
38:32
Speaker A
of English- speakaking people in the world, you know, and if you can make a video that can be targeted towards English, Spanish, uh, you know, Asian people, and they all speak different languages, but they can all watch it at
38:42
Speaker A
the same time, then you are going to be what? Maximizing your views. I actually don't tend to use um I don't tend to use any type of captions in my my videos because I don't actually want people who
38:55
Speaker A
are speaking Spanish to see it and be like, "Oh, I can't I can't watch this because it's not in or it's not in Spanish." So like when you're making videos, don't put captions, right?
39:03
Speaker A
Unless it's very specific towards English speaking audiences. But if you're making Brainer and stuff like that, just just leave no captions. You know, use the most trending music you can possibly make and you know, avoid languages. And that's basically
39:14
Speaker A
everything I do. All right, that's basically everything I do to to find niches. I know it seems pretty straightforward, and it is. You know, all you got to do is use Verlo, find hidden niches that are doing well, look
39:24
Speaker A
at your competition, see if the competition is also doing well. If they are, can you make videos better than them? If you can make videos better than them, can you also avoid any type of language barrier? If you can, you're
39:35
Speaker A
going to be able to maximize the amount of views you are uploading or just achieving every single month. That's pretty much it, guys. If this was useful for you and you know you learned something from this, you know, I have
39:45
Speaker A
this crazy YouTube channel right now that's pulling 51 million views in 48 hours. It's it's generally also it's generating also a crazy amount of revenue right now. Um, but I had to blur it out because I can unfortunately not
39:56
Speaker A
show it at this time. But I'm going to hit this reload for you one more time because I just do feel really proud of this channel. And I want to kind of take today to explain the difference between
40:04
Speaker A
YouTube automated shorts and YouTube automated longs and which one is better for you moving forward. By the way, this is day 33 of the V-Maxing boot camp. If you haven't seen the rest of the videos, go to my channel, click on the playlist,
40:15
Speaker A
or click on the first link in the description. You can see all the videos I've made about, you know, view maxing, getting the most amount of views. We've generated close to 26 billion views over the past 8 years and 2 billion views
40:26
Speaker A
this month across all our YouTube shorts channels. We currently do have around 36 YouTube automated shorts channels we running right now. So, we have a buttload of channels we are running. I want to take today to explain everything. So, let's get straight into
40:37
Speaker A
it. So when I think about shorts versus longs, I think about the upsides and downsides of what's going to be better for me in terms of revenue, in terms of time, and you know, what's going to make me more money in the long run, right? So
40:48
Speaker A
first of all, when I think of shorts, which is probably what a lot of you guys are doing right now, the first thing I think of is how long is it going to take me to make money, right? How long will
40:57
Speaker A
it take? Uh what is the actual upside of how much money I am going to make? And then lastly, how hard is it going to be, right? So, usually when we're making a search channel, I can get monetized
41:10
Speaker A
within two weeks of starting because it's pretty easy to hit that 1,000 subscribers and 10 million uh views.
41:16
Speaker A
Now, if you use my strats, which I explained in the view maximizing boot camp, it's pretty easy to hit that monetization within two weeks. So, you can make money within two weeks of actually starting, right? Also, the learning curve for shorts is a lot lower
41:29
Speaker A
than the learning curve for longs because you get so many reps, right? because you can upload one, two, even five videos a day on a shorts channel, be able to output content and be able to see your analytics and review and
41:43
Speaker A
improve upon it every single time. So, the actual learning curve to be able to learn is a lot uh lower. That's why a lot of my students in my program, they're able to get monetized within, you know, at least 3 weeks of starting
41:56
Speaker A
because the learning curve is like this. Once you kind of know what to do, it's pretty easy to scale. Now, long form is a little different. I'll get into that after we go over everything with short form. Now, the actual upside for money
42:06
Speaker A
earning potential is actually a little lower than long form, right? Because our RPMs are going to be lower for short form content, but it is much easier to get views, right? So, for example, this channel here, you know, in the past 28
42:21
Speaker A
days, we've generated around $10,000 and we started this channel two months ago, right? And even though we started this, you know, channel two months ago and we have, you know, RPM of roughly, I think around 8 cents. Let's check just to make
42:34
Speaker A
sure. Um, shorts. Yeah, we have around an 8 cent RPM here. Even though we have an 8 cent RPM, we've still made $10,000 in pure uh AdSense revenue. So, even though we have a low RPM, we're still making around $10,000 a month. Now, for
42:49
Speaker A
long form, it is a little different. Again, I'm going to explain that in a second. All right. And then lastly, the actual upside of is this sustainable over a long period of time. Well, a lot of shorts channels have a lifespan of
43:02
Speaker A
roughly one year, right? And this is um assuming that you are sustainably making good content. You're changing with the trends and you're consistently improving your videos every single time, making sure you're not oversaturating or milking your audience, right? So, a
43:18
Speaker A
one-year lifespan is normally how long a YouTube Shorts channel will last. But here's the caveat to this. This is why I have 36 channels that we're running right now. Because not all the time when we have, you know, YouTube short
43:30
Speaker A
channel, it's going to last forever. Like a lot of these channels that I have over here, a lot of them have died down, right? But we still have other channels that is just making more and more revenue, right? We have some channels
43:39
Speaker A
that have peaks of like, you know, 60 million views in one month. Other channels are like 500 million views in one month, you know? So, it really just depends. That's why we have so many automated channels right now because
43:51
Speaker A
maybe a lot of them are on the tail end of their lifespan, but they're still generating me a good three or four thousand dollars every single month, which is why we're at currently $115,000 this month in pure AdSense revenue
44:02
Speaker A
across all of our 36 shorts channels. All right, so this is everything you probably need to know if you want to decide if you want to do shorts. It's also much easier to automate a shorts channel because communicating to your
44:14
Speaker A
editor is much easier to teach them. the learning curve is a lot smaller and it's much easier to find niches. There's just more opportunity with shorts. Now, let's talk about longs, right? Because I know a lot of you guys, you know, when you
44:26
Speaker A
start uploading on YouTube, you have the choice either longs or shorts. Which one are you going to do? Now, in longs, we're going to talk about the money-making potential. We're going to talk about the upside of how much money
44:37
Speaker A
you can make, how hard is it, and then just overall what the learning curve actually is, right? So firstly, the money-making potential is higher for long form, but the learning curve is much much more harder, right? I actually
44:51
Speaker A
run a couple long form channels. I can show you a couple examples in a second, but you know, for a long form, the learning curve is much much much harder.
44:59
Speaker A
So, you will actually have a very, very long time before you make some substantial money because getting the 40,000 or 4,000 hours of watch time, it's much more difficult if you don't know what you're doing. If you do know
45:09
Speaker A
what you're doing, you can monetize a channel within a couple of weeks pretty easily. You can do it off one single video. To be honest, you need to make sure your trust score is dialed in and you need to make sure that you are
45:18
Speaker A
picking good niches. It's also a lot harder to pick a good niche for long form because if you don't know what niche you're picking, then you could end up spending hours on a video, upload it, and it does really bad. You know, you
45:31
Speaker A
spend days on a video and then you get no results, right? Because you don't get as much trial and error for longs as you do for shorts. which is why if you're more of a busy person, you have other
45:40
Speaker A
stuff going on in your life, shorts is good to start out with, then you can branch out, pay editors, it's much easier. Also, a lot of editors know how to do short form editing rather than long form editing. Now, of course,
45:50
Speaker A
there's ultra long form, like for example, Blake Ryan does or, you know, Daniel Wang, they do a lot of ultra long form, and ultra long form is great.
45:59
Speaker A
There's really good ways to make money. You just have to be able to find good niches, which we'll go over actually in this video as well. Now, this is one of the long form channels we're running right now. We're currently at $13,000
46:08
Speaker A
this month in pure AdSense revenue. And let me show you the lifetime revenue cuz it's pretty crazy. For our long form channel, we've generated $751,000 on this one single channel. Over the past couple years, you can see um the
46:23
Speaker A
revenue we've generated. It's pretty insane. It's been like, you know, 3 years since we've been running this channel. And this is mostly all long form content. And we also use some short form funneling to our long form content.
46:32
Speaker A
1.6 billion views, $751,000 in revenue. afternoon here. I'll give you a little refresh real quick just so I can show you that I'm not baiting you because this is pretty crazy, right? So, how exactly have we done this? You know, a
46:45
Speaker A
lot of it is actually picking a niche and building a brand around it, right?
46:49
Speaker A
Because we I want to know we want to talk about longevity and how hard it is to build longevity. Well, longevity is much easier easier for long form content, but it's much harder to build up, right? You will make more money
47:02
Speaker A
because RPMs are higher, right? you'll have like maybe a $2 RPM. And then if you can sustainably get good views and you have a good brand around it, then you can make good money, maybe like, you know, $10,000ish a month. But remember,
47:15
Speaker A
you have to build a brand around it. You can't just automate it. A lot of these channels are built with brands. A lot of these channels have real foundations behind it. It's not just content you can push out. You cannot get rich quick off
47:27
Speaker A
of long form content, but you can build longevity from it, right? Which is why I recommend you start your learning curve with short form. Learn how to make good videos off short form. Uh make good money off short form, then transition to
47:41
Speaker A
long form afterward after you start making good money. And this is kind of what I've done for a lot of my, you know, uh short form content as well.
47:48
Speaker A
We've transitioned from short form to long form. And this is how we're making so much good money right now off this.
47:53
Speaker A
Remember, this is, you know, one of 36 channels that we're running right now. Now, how hard is it? Remember I told you the learning curve is a lot harder, but also actually picking the niche, finding what videos you're going to upload is a
48:05
Speaker A
little difficult. So, I'm going to explain actually how to pick your niche now and how to be able to find good editors, how to be able to upload yourself, how to be able to take the time, you know, out of your day to be
48:14
Speaker A
able to make these long form videos because sometimes these videos can take three to five days just to make one single good long form video, right? And it takes planning, it takes research in your niche, it takes actually finding
48:26
Speaker A
good editors. So, I'll explain all of it now. So firstly, when you're finding a niche in your long form content, this needs to be something that you are okay spending the next like year of, you know, really pushing out content to be
48:38
Speaker A
able to actually make sustainable income because this is something you're going to actually put effort toward, right? I know there's a lot of people who like, you know, saying like, okay, yeah, you can do like ultra long form rain sounds
48:47
Speaker A
and stuff like that, but u at the end of the day, this is not going to be sustainable income. It's maybe going to be evergreen income. You can start a lot of channels this way, but I'm assuming if you're watching this, you want to be
48:57
Speaker A
a content creator and you want to build a brand. All right, so if you want to build a brand, I need you to figure out what type of content are you uploading ready or what type of content do you
49:05
Speaker A
like making? What type of creators do you like watching? And then pick that niche based off of that and start posting. For example, a lot of my short channels that I started out with, for example, Roblox, uh I had friends who
49:17
Speaker A
did Roblox and then I would like promote it out that way. Or um you know, for Valerant, I used to make Valerant content. and I would push it out that way, right? And then I started making sustainable money off of it. I automated
49:26
Speaker A
it and moved on to other things. Then I got into things I didn't really care about like ranking, right? Then I got to things I didn't really care about like commentary. And those things of, you know, pet commentary or ranking. Those
49:36
Speaker A
short channels eventually can branch out to longer form channels. For example, Exactly Films, he does longer videos like that and it makes pretty good money, right? So after you pick your niche, actually making the content is a whole different process cuz editing on
49:51
Speaker A
uh long form videos is very important because long form only two metrics per really matter. It is the retention of your video which again if you guys don't know it's AVD divided by LOV uh average view duration divided by length of
50:04
Speaker A
video. So if you have a 5 minute average view duration out of a 10-minute video then you have a um 50% retention. Now, typically when you're having these videos, it's pretty hard to get near 100% retention for long form. I
50:18
Speaker A
recommend aiming for like around a 60 to 80% um retention, which is going to be, you know, 6 to 8 minutes out of a 10-minute video, just depending on how long your videos are. The other metric that is
50:29
Speaker A
very important is CTR. Now, clickthrough rate is a whole different ballgame because it's about packaging. If you cannot package your long form videos correctly, you will not have your videos pushed out because people aren't clicking on it. Because you can make an
50:41
Speaker A
amazing video, if your title and thumbnail suck, people will not stay to watch, right? So, packaging is very important. You want to be getting at least a minimum of 10% CTRs on your videos. And you want to make sure your
50:52
Speaker A
videos are very well packaged. If you have very well packaged videos, then you will have your videos pushed out further. Packaging is honestly, you know, 50% of the work. The retention is the other 50% of the work. This is
51:03
Speaker A
really everything you need to know for long form and short form content. Learning curve for long form is harder.
51:08
Speaker A
Short form learning curve is easier. You can make money from both of them. I showed you two examples. One of them is more long-term money. One of them is more short-term money. I recommend having money before you start a long
51:17
Speaker A
form channel because that way you can put money into editors and then you can outsource your time because, you know, your editors should either do two things. There's save you time and make you money. So, if your short form
51:26
Speaker A
content is your cash flow system, then you put that into long form content, then you can scale up both channels like I've done right now. And that's how we have so many channels we're running. Of course, eventually we'll have teams in
51:35
Speaker A
place where you can make lots of money on the side. And then you eventually automate everything to make more money.
51:39
Speaker A
This is what we've done over everything. And if you guys want to know how to automate your short channels because really this is what you should be starting with before you do any type of content creation. Shorts is just the
51:49
Speaker A
easiest way to start. You learn everything you need to. You can make really easy money from it as long as you just know what you're doing.
51:56
Speaker A
So there's a pretty big chance that your YouTube settings are not set up correctly. And the reason why this is so important is because if you do not have your YouTube settings set up correctly, then you won't be able to get pushed out
52:05
Speaker A
to the YouTube algorithm. These are a couple of the 36 channels that we are running right now. And we have a butt a load of channels that are getting pushed out to the algorithm. As you can see here, we are running a buttload of
52:14
Speaker A
channels. And I want to kind of explain what I do when I'm actually going through my, you know, my settings, making sure my channel is set up correctly, making sure my feature eligibility is set up correctly, because if you don't do these things first, then
52:26
Speaker A
you won't be able to get pushed out to the algorithm later, and then your trust score is going to decrease. We're going to talk about trust score a little bit later as well. This is going to be a
52:33
Speaker A
very in-depth video, so make sure to take notes, pay attention, and then after you watch this video, apply it to your own channel so you can actually fix your views and, you know, overall just get end up pushing out to the algorithm
52:41
Speaker A
more. And I'm actually going to go over step by step over everything from actually creating the channel to the Gmail and making sure everything is good. So, the first thing you're going to do is after you go to your YouTube
52:49
Speaker A
homepage on your computer, click on the top right and click on switch accounts. Now, you're probably not going to have all these accounts here, but at the very, very, very bottom of this, you're going to see an option that says view
53:01
Speaker A
all channels. When you click on view all channels, it's going to take you to where all the accounts you've made under this Gmail is. Now, you can see here we have a lot of accounts here, but you're going to click on create a new channel
53:13
Speaker A
if you haven't already. Now, if you've already made a channel and you're already basically done with this step, then we're going to go to the next one.
53:19
Speaker A
But it's better if you're, you know, starting a new channel, just create a new channel at this point, unless, you know, the other channel has a higher trust score, which we're also going to go over later in this video. So, let's
53:28
Speaker A
say I just make this video like, uh, test Devon channel. All right, test devon channel. We're going to hit create account. And then after we create the account, it's going to take a couple seconds. It's going to ask us what
53:37
Speaker A
account do we want to actually sign into. And then I'm just going to click on the first one because it's usually the one I always go with. And then boom, we have the account actually created.
53:46
Speaker A
Now, what you're going to do is you're going to go to your studio. and then I'll explain the next steps after this.
53:49
Speaker A
So, when you go to your studio, if you click on settings and then you click on switch account, you should see the option right here that says uh test demon channel, whatever channel that you created, click on that channel. And then
54:00
Speaker A
when you click on that channel, it's going to take you to a little tutorial real quick to make sure you know everything. After you do that, click on settings and then click on channel. All right, this is where you should start
54:10
Speaker A
paying attention. So, make sure your country residence is wherever you live. Do not pretend you live in the United States. if you live in the Philippines or India or wherever else. All right, if you live in the UK, just say you live in
54:21
Speaker A
the UK. If you live in Ethiopia, say you live in Ethiopia, right? So, I'm going to go ahead and select the United States because I live in the United States.
54:28
Speaker A
Then, we're going to go to advanced settings. After we go to advanced settings, make sure you say no, this channel is not made for kids, unless you're uploading like Coco Melon type content. I like setting this to always
54:39
Speaker A
not made for kids because eventually when you apply for AdSense, you're going to need to make sure this is enabled. If it's not enabled, then it's not going to actually get approved for monetization because YouTube will see that you're
54:50
Speaker A
maybe circumventing the system. All right, scroll down. Make sure uh you say allow viewers to click your content because this actually can uh let you get more reach. And then let YouTube enhance visual and audio. Make sure that's
55:01
Speaker A
enabled. Make sure that you allow third party companies to not uh train for AI models. This doesn't really matter too much, but I don't want any AI taking my content being able to replicate it. So, make sure all of this is set up like
55:15
Speaker A
that. All right. Now, this is the most important part. Click on feature eligibility. Now, if you just created the account, it's going to look something like this where it says uh standard features is probably enabled.
55:25
Speaker A
And then you're going to need to do intermittent features and advanced features. Now, for intermittent features, all you got to do is verify a phone number. If you do not have a phone number to verify, do not use some type
55:37
Speaker A
of thirdparty website and then use a temporary phone number because eventually you may have to verify with that phone number and you'll get locked out your account. All right? So, make sure if you're going to verify phone number, use yours, use a trusted family
55:48
Speaker A
member, use a trusted friend, someone that you're going to be able to stay in contact with. So, if you need to actually, you know, send a verification code to it, uh you can just prove that to YouTube that, hey, you own this
55:58
Speaker A
account because you have access to this phone number. All right. Now what I do because you know you guys are probably wondering I have so many channels. Uh what I've done over the years is I just you know had channels underneath my
56:07
Speaker A
phone then a second phone and a third phone and I've also used my brother's phone, my mom's phone, my dad's phone and friends's phones as well to verify all these accounts, right? So I basically use everyone's phone to verify
56:17
Speaker A
my accounts. Now as for advanced features, this is very important. If you were under the age of 18, you can still apply. All right. As long as you're over the age of 13, which I'm sure everyone watching this is above the age of 13.
56:32
Speaker A
Now, if you do not have a valid ID, you can still get through the system through channel history. This takes two this takes a little bit of time though. Takes around two months, right, of like actually watching videos and uploading
56:45
Speaker A
videos on this channel. It'll take two months if you do not have an ID. Now, the other thing you can do is a video verification, but this is basically through like a third party. They send the video, Google gets the video, they
56:56
Speaker A
send it to a third party, and the third party basically verifies if you're over the age of 18 or 13 or not. Now, some of you look like children, and because of that, um you may actually get um denied
57:08
Speaker A
when you do this video application. All right? So, make sure that all this is set up correctly. When all is set up correctly, it should look something like this right here, where you have everything enabled, all of it green.
57:21
Speaker A
When you do this, then boom, the first part of your trust score is set up correctly. Now, let's talk about emails.
57:27
Speaker A
Now, I get this question all the time. Is it better to have an aged Gmail or an aged YouTube channel? Or this question as well, Devin, do I need to have an age YouTube channel to be able to get pushed
57:39
Speaker A
to the algorithm and increase my trust score? Right? And the answer to uh the second question, if you need a age YouTube channel, is no, you do not. All right? as long as your email is old enough, right? And now they get you
57:54
Speaker A
another question here of like, okay, how old does my email need to be? Well, let's go over that now, right? So, when I tell you you need to have an aged Gmail, right? Aged Gmail, what this means is it means take the oldest Gmail
58:07
Speaker A
that you own and use that for your channel creation, right? If you have an email that is eight years old, use that email. If your oldest email is one year old and you just for some reason just created a Google account for the very
58:20
Speaker A
first time, then use that Gmail. Okay? Use the oldest Gmail that you have available to you and use that to create your account. Now, why do we need to do this? Okay, so YouTube is owned by Google and Google's interface takes
58:35
Speaker A
Google accounts and makes YouTube accounts, right? They're basically linked. Now, if Google sees uh that you have a new Gmail, sometimes they may detect that this new Gmail here is a bot, right? Because there's always new Gmails being created by lots of bots. If
58:52
Speaker A
you use a new Gmail to make a new YouTube channel, it may get detected as a bot and then you will immediately get stuck in zero view jail, which is another reason why a lot of you guys are
59:01
Speaker A
in zero view jail because you're making new YouTube channels underneath your new uh Gmail accounts. Now, I recommend use an age Gmail, the oldest you have. All right? You don't need to go buy a Gmail.
59:12
Speaker A
Even if it's 6 months old, that's okay. Just as long as you're using it. Are you using it to watch YouTube videos? Um, are you logged into other things? Are you creating accounts under that Gmail?
59:21
Speaker A
Are you getting like newsletters and stuff in that Gmail? Are you sending emails in that Gmail? If you are, then boom, your account is aged. It's good enough. Uh, I would say like a six months is a good, you know, time frame
59:32
Speaker A
to have a Gmail like at the bare minimum. The older the better. Okay, so this is the solution for having an age Gmail. All right, make sure all your YouTube accounts are underneath the age Gmail. Now for age YouTube channels, it
59:45
Speaker A
does not matter. For example, this test Devon channel that we just created over here, this channel, I could literally uh you know upload a video tomorrow and it can get pushed out. I recommend waiting 24 hours, right? But we created this
59:59
Speaker A
channel just now, right? It's It's November 19th and I could upload a video on November 20th and it would the videos could start getting pushed out immediately as long as all my feature eligibility and stuff was already good.
60:09
Speaker A
My age Gmail was good and then the video quality was actually good. And we're going to go over how to make good videos later in this boot camp of course. But um you know this is the first step. All
60:17
Speaker A
right. After you do all of this, then you have an age Gmail and then you have a YouTube channel that has all your feature eligibility and all the settings enabled and you're pretty much good to go. Now, I'm going to show you the next
60:28
Speaker A
step of actually making sure your settings are good for your videos because if your video settings aren't good, then your video may not get pushed out. So, we're going to go over that now. Now, after you actually upload the
60:37
Speaker A
video to YouTube, make sure it's private first so you can review all the settings. The first thing you need to look at is your video quality. Make sure your video quality says SD and HD as well. If the HD is still processing or
60:49
Speaker A
it's only SD, it's only going to upload in 720p, which is not high enough quality for it to get pushed out to get millions of views as we want. Okay. The second thing is we want to make sure our
61:00
Speaker A
titles are short and sweet. You can use emojis if you want. Do not make your titles too long or else it won't be able to show up on the entire homepage for YouTube. You can see here I just have
61:08
Speaker A
mass morph troll all. I keep it very short and sweet. I don't do any extra stuff, right? No search optimization, nothing. And I'll explain why I don't do that in a second. If you use Vid IQ and you have this little score here, shorts,
61:20
Speaker A
uh, you know, searchability does not matter at all unless you're making very niche specific content. But this is the view maximizing boot camp. We're trying to get the most amount of views, right?
61:28
Speaker A
So, we want to make sure it's broad as possible. Don't worry about the score here if you use Vid IQ. Now, if you scroll down, you're going to notice my description is blank, right? And the reason my description is blank is
61:37
Speaker A
because I don't want any metadata to get picked up by the YouTube algorithm. I wanted just YouTube algorithm to find it naturally. And because YouTube's algorithm is so good at picking a metadata, it will find the correct audience. All right, if you scroll a
61:49
Speaker A
little further, um, you know, you can pick a thumbnail if you want. I never really focus on picking thumbnails. You don't need to put in a playlist. Uh, it doesn't really affect the views. Always make sure it says not made for kids. All
61:59
Speaker A
right? And then say no, do not restrict my videos. And then if you go down a little further, unless you're using AI content, then do not click on this. You know, I just leave this blank because it doesn't matter. Um but if you are using
62:10
Speaker A
a AI content or like you know uh making some type of deep fake stuff or something like that say yes. All right Collaborators this is a huge feature.
62:19
Speaker A
This actually got released last week and I want to talk about this because collaborators is a huge feature that was uh released. My students found out about this when you are using a collaborator.
62:29
Speaker A
All right let's say you are a bigger channel inviting a smaller channel that you own both of these. the smaller channel will gain traction immediately and the trust score will increase faster because YouTube sees that bigger channels are trusting the smaller
62:41
Speaker A
channel. So if you have multiple channels that are in the same niche, you can collab with each other. It is not against the terms of service and both channels will gain subscribers, views, now only one of them is actually going
62:52
Speaker A
to make money from the collab, but both of them will be able to reach further through monetization uh if they're not already at monetization. The smaller one's going to get a lot more reach and then it can build its own audience. Like
63:02
Speaker A
for example, if you have a Roblox channel and then you have another Roblox channel and you invite each other, then you're going to be able to get pushed out a lot quicker. I'm going to show you example of this now. So this is a
63:11
Speaker A
channel that we started not too long ago and it was stuck in around 30k view jail and we wanted to do some testing with collaborations. So if we go to content right here and we go to shorts, you can
63:20
Speaker A
see here that these videos were kind of stuck in 30k but you know it's getting pushed out more now. Um you know you can see these were kind of stuck in 30k here but this video was a pretty big outlier,
63:30
Speaker A
right? All right. So, if we go to analytics and we look at this channel, you can see here that we got pushed out dramatically. And the reason this happened is because we actually uh took this channel and we put it in a
63:42
Speaker A
collaboration with this other channel here. So, we collaborated right about here and then this video got pushed out.
63:47
Speaker A
And now, because we collaborated with this channel here and this channel is now getting pushed out drastically, if we actually go to our YouTube studio, you can see here that we have a one out of 10 on our latest video. And now every
64:00
Speaker A
single video is a one out of 10. And we're getting pushed out a lot quicker every single time. Now we basically increase our trust score with collaborations which is why if you have people you know who you can actually
64:09
Speaker A
collab with. It is very very helpful. Right? If you got friends or you can even join our community and talk with people there. There are so many like-minded people. I mean a lot of our people are collabing with each other. So
64:18
Speaker A
I mean it's a great feature to have. Now all this automatic chapters, feature places, automatic concepts. You can just check all these for now. These don't really matter. This is important. your tags. Do not use any tags. I don't care
64:32
Speaker A
who tells you what. If you use tags, you will limit your reach because of how YouTube's metadata works. Do not use tags. All right? Tags is a very bad thing to use. It'll limit your reach heavily. I'll explain why a second back
64:42
Speaker A
on the board, but let's just go down real quick. Make sure your language is in the native language that the short is being recorded on. And then you can make sure all this says standard YouTube license here. Recording date, you don't
64:53
Speaker A
need one if you don't want one. Um, but this right here, this license here, you can see you have two options. Creative comments and YouTube standard license.
65:00
Speaker A
If you click on creative comments here, what's going to happen is, uh, anyone who sees that short is allowed to basically repeat it and upload it, right? So, it makes your video basically, uh, you're not allowed to strike anyone if someone steals your
65:13
Speaker A
videos. So, I recommend always having standard YouTube license on unless you want people to actually use your content. All right. Now, as for category, does not really matter. For shorts remixing, I always allow video and audio because remixing actually
65:26
Speaker A
boosts our short further. Uh automatic dubbing, I recommend uh having manual dubbing on only, right? Uh and then for category, I recommend just clicking on entertainment. I do this for every single video in every single niche. I don't care what I'm uploading. I just do
65:41
Speaker A
entertainment because I'm trying to get the most views and entertainment gets the most reach. Uh comments and ratings, I always do comments on. I always have moderation as none because I just want the most comments possible. and then
65:51
Speaker A
sort by top or newest. I recommend doing top because that's the most engaging comments. And that's everything you need for your details part of your shorts.
65:58
Speaker A
Also, another great feature, if you go to your editor over here, let's say um you actually go to your analytics and then you see there's a retention dip here. Now, there's no retention dip here because this video got like 10 million
66:09
Speaker A
views, but you know, let's say there was a retention dip here. What you could do is you can go to your editor. You can actually click on trim, right? And then you can actually cut it up to edit the
66:18
Speaker A
video. Now, usually you can only do this for some YouTube shorts. For this one is like it's not giving me the option for some reason, but if you do have the option, you can trim it up. I think this
66:26
Speaker A
it has to be like a uploaded within a certain time period for you to be able to edit it. Uh you don't need any end screen info cards, though, cuz it's a YouTube short, of course. And then if
66:34
Speaker A
you are monetized, make sure your monetization is turned on. Pretty easy stuff, guys. Now, this is more for long form, but I'm just going to include it anyway because we're talking about all the YouTube settings. If you guys are
66:43
Speaker A
doing long form, I recommend just turning on this audio here and publicizing everything. It just makes it easier and allows you more reach. It will limit your RPM if you are doing for example like uh Ben Mgala. Like if you
66:55
Speaker A
do that then it may limit your RPM because you're getting pushed to other people from other countries. If you want to limit to only US audiences then you can just leave this blank. And that is basically the majority of settings that
67:05
Speaker A
you need to know in order to actually make sure your account is optimized to increase your trust score and end up getting more views. There's also one thing I want to talk about which is going to be in day three of the boot
67:14
Speaker A
camp which we're talking about tomorrow a little bit more. But I want to talk about metadata. All right. So if you guys don't know what YouTube metadata is, right? Metadata is basically data that is stored inside of the YouTube
67:27
Speaker A
system to be able to categorize each and every viewer to push to the correct audience. All right. So let's say we have this metadata term here. All right.
67:34
Speaker A
I like imagining the YouTube algorithm as a giant box. All right. And in this giant box, there are tons of little bubbles. And these bubbles are niches.
67:42
Speaker A
Okay. So, we have like uh let's say the money-making space because you are watching this, you want to make money, right? And then we have the ASMR space, right? People who just make weird sounds. Uh we have cooking and then we
67:54
Speaker A
have cars and then let's say we have like pottery or something really random, right? Pottery. So, we have all these random niches here. And of course, there are actual thousands and thousands of niches. Let's say we are this little red
68:07
Speaker A
dot. Okay, we the viewer. This viewer is a little red dot. So every single time, let's say we are interested in cars and making money and then we also watch some pottery videos, right? So the YouTube algorithm sees this and they will
68:22
Speaker A
actually push out videos to these specific people, right? These specific people who people don't like watching these things. And you may think, well, okay, I'm making videos in the Roblox niche. Let's put another one here for Roblox, right? I'm making videos in the
68:36
Speaker A
Roblox niche. So shouldn't I do hashtag Roblox? The answer is no. Because there's a lot of people who play Fortnite and there's a lot of people who just play games in general. There's a lot of little kids who play with their
68:46
Speaker A
friends who watch Roblox and they don't necessarily watch, you know, Roblox consistently, but if Roblox video comes up on their feed, they will watch it.
68:54
Speaker A
Right? If we are trying to do hashtag Roblox, our video will only be targeted to people who actually watch Roblox and we will not get any of these other guys and these other niches here that could potentially watch our videos. So we're
69:08
Speaker A
basically limit us limiting us to one single string. All right. So imagine the YouTube algorithm like this. This is how the YouTube algorithm works. It's a big string of metadata. All right. So when we don't use hashtags, we basically
69:19
Speaker A
erase all of these lines over here and we're able to actually connect to every single one of them, right? Because then our video here, let's say this is our video. Our video is going to be green.
69:28
Speaker A
It's going to target all of these people in all of these different niches and become a huge web. This is how you view maximize, right? because I get the most amount of views I possibly can. We've generated almost two billion views this
69:41
Speaker A
month and 26 billion views over the past like eight years of me doing content.
69:45
Speaker A
All right? So, trust me, this works. I'm telling you guys right now, this works.
69:48
Speaker A
We're talking about how to optimize for your channel to get the most amount of views possible cuz I see a lot of you guys kind of struggling right now with optimization. And I see that your channels like, you know, we look at it
69:59
Speaker A
and you're like, "Okay, you're uploading good content, but you don't have the settings in the back end fixed." If you don't have those settings fixed, then you're not going to be able to get views. All right? Just straight up.
70:06
Speaker A
That's how it's going to work. So, I asked my Discord. I asked you guys like, "Hey, does anyone have any channels that I can kind of review for you?" And I had this one guy who messaged me. So, I'm
70:14
Speaker A
going to review his channel today and kind of break down everything that he's doing wrong. And hopefully this will help you guys optimize your channels as well. This is day 18 of the View Maximizing Boot Camp. If you haven't
70:22
Speaker A
watched the other videos, go back, watch day one, and go all the way through. I'm dropping tons of YouTube sauce, but today we're talking about optimization.
70:28
Speaker A
Let's get into it. So, the first thing I notice um when I go on this channel is I go to settings and I'm going to go to channel, right? Okay, so the first thing I see is country residence is enabled.
70:38
Speaker A
If you guys are not in the United States and you want to target United States viewers, do not select United States.
70:44
Speaker A
Let me say that again. All right. If you're not in the United States, do not select United States. Just leave it as no region. All right? Because if you do, YouTube will figure it out automatically and try to get you the right audience.
70:56
Speaker A
If you're in the United States, you can click United States, but I'm going to be honest, sometimes it's okay to just leave this thing blank. And when you actually click on it, you can never uncclick it. So, if this thing is kind
71:05
Speaker A
of marked as like select region and you haven't done anything with this, then I recommend not clicking anything because if you don't have a region, you actually will get potentially more views because YouTube won't target just people in
71:16
Speaker A
United States. It'll target people all over the world. And what do we want to do? We want to get the most reach possible. I mean, if you want to get continents of people every single month to watch your channel, then don't select
71:25
Speaker A
a residence. If you have already, just keep as United States. It's fine. For keywords, do not have any keywords. I see a lot of channels putting keywords and being very specific and they're asking, "hm, why am I stuck in 30k view
71:36
Speaker A
jail or 50k view jail?" Well, I'll tell you right now, the reason why you are stuck in a certain amount of view jail is potentially because you were actually trying to target a certain amount of people. For example, let's say you were
71:48
Speaker A
making content in the commentary animal niche. There's only a certain amount of people in the world who speak English, care about animals, and care about commentary. Let's say it's a billion people, which is a lot, but let's say
72:00
Speaker A
it's a billion people. All right? If only a billion people care about this, then when you put this keywords, people who care about things that are not in animal niche are not going to get that video. But here's the thing. When you're
72:11
Speaker A
making content, you want to make it as general as possible. I was once in a call with Jimmy, you know, Mr. Beast, and he I asked him I had the opportunity to ask him like one question, and I
72:19
Speaker A
asked him, "What tip would you give to maximize the most amount of views?" you know, and he told me, "Don't do a niche.
72:27
Speaker A
Just don't pick a niche." Because when you pick a niche and you, you know, you really get down and dirty in that niche, you kind of limit yourself by the amount of views you can get, right? So, let's
72:38
Speaker A
say there's only one billion people in the world who actually care about um and I'm saying one only one billion because I'm getting over a billion right now.
72:45
Speaker A
So, if I was only targeting this, then I wouldn't be able to get the number I'm getting right now, right? But let's say there's only a billion people in the world who care about animal commentary, right? If only a billion people care
72:55
Speaker A
about that, then that means I'm never going to be able to get over a billion people in a given month. This means that I'm limited by people who speak English, people who care about animals, and people who care about commentary. And
73:05
Speaker A
usually people who are in this type of situation right now, they have this and they put like animal here and they put like commentary here and they start putting all these different types of keywords here. And what you want to do
73:15
Speaker A
is you don't want to have any keywords because how YouTube works is it takes metadata from each individual platform or each individual viewer and it'll actually push it out to a bigger audience determining on what the metadata chooses for that video. If that
73:29
Speaker A
didn't make sense, I'll give a more visual example so you guys can kind of get it, right? So let's say you are a person who cares about watching YouTube videos and you like maximizing your views. You care about making money
73:38
Speaker A
online, right? Let's say the average person watching this cares about making money online. If you care about money, making money online, let's say you also care about like uh I don't know, mindset and psychology. Um this is supposed to
73:49
Speaker A
be a head by the way and it's supposed to be like a brain. That's psychology.
73:53
Speaker A
And then let's say you care about I don't know uh self-improvement like working out in the gym, right? This is supposed to be a dumbbell. If these are the things you care about, working out psychology and making money online, you
74:02
Speaker A
are in a metadata category. The viewer, you are in a metadata category of this niche. This is the metadata that is enabled for your account. So, if you actually go to the homepage of your video, like right now, if you literally
74:15
Speaker A
swipe away or you go to the homepage or you even go in the recommended right now of this video, you're going to see how to get views or how to make money online or best workout tips. I bet you a
74:24
Speaker A
million dollars. That's probably what it says right now because YouTube has determined that your metadata is this.
74:30
Speaker A
So, if this is true, when you do specific keywords for your channel, you're only going to get targeted those amounts of people. And if you're trying to view maximize and get the most amount of views, you don't want keywords
74:41
Speaker A
because you want to get the most amount of reach. Why would you limit yourself to those videos or to those people, right? So don't put anything in this keywords because it's only going to target those people in the metadata. All
74:52
Speaker A
right? So don't do keywords. All right. Next thing, go to feature eligibility. Advanced settings really doesn't matter.
74:59
Speaker A
Just make sure make sure when you're doing your audience, always select not made for kids. I don't care if you're making kids content. Always select not made for kids. The reason why is your RPMs will be boosted. You'll get more
75:10
Speaker A
money and then ultimately get more reach. All right, so this is another thing I would change for so so for the guy who's watching this right now, make sure you click on no, this channel is not made for kids because this is going
75:23
Speaker A
to determine YouTube that you can push out to more people. All right. Also, if you leave it as you want to review every setting, that's fine. But just make sure when you're uploading you select not made for kids. Feature eligibility. I
75:33
Speaker A
see already that he has not enabled this and you guys need to make sure this is enabled. Make sure you have all three of these settings enabled. If you don't have this enabled, you're going to be stuck in 100k view jail, which doesn't
75:43
Speaker A
sound like, you know, 100k view maybe sounds like a lot to you, but once you start getting 100K, you're going to be stuck there until you get out of this feature uh advanced features. So, make sure you have standard features,
75:53
Speaker A
intermediate features, and advanced features on this is going to allow you to apply for monetization. And I'm sure if you guys are doing this, what do you want to do? You want to make money, right? So, if you want to make money,
76:03
Speaker A
then maybe enable this feature because I see a lot of you guys do not have this feature enabled, which is crazy to me because how do you expect to make money if you don't have this feature enabled?
76:12
Speaker A
All right, that's kind of the basics for this part of optimizing your settings. Now, as for upload defaults, make sure you don't have any tags. Just like we talked about earlier, don't have any tags in your shorts. Don't have any
76:26
Speaker A
description in your shorts. If you're making long form content, it is way different. Tags and description is pretty important. I'm not gonna lie. But for shorts, it does not matter. Why?
76:36
Speaker A
Because the same thing applies. I'm not going to go over it again because it's pretty self-explanatory with metadata.
76:42
Speaker A
If you're putting description and tags inside of your video, then YouTube is going to determine that metadata is going to push those amount of people.
76:48
Speaker A
Let's say you're making speed clips and you're doing hashtag speed, then people who don't aren't a regular watcher of speed won't see that video. And I I bet you that if someone's not a regular watcher of Speed, they're still going to
76:59
Speaker A
watch a Wspeed clip because Speed is just a very popular person. Just like if you do hashtags soccer or hashtag Ronaldo, everyone in the world watches Ronaldo. It doesn't matter if you watch baseball or you watch basketball or MMA.
77:15
Speaker A
You know that everyone watches Ronaldo. If Ronaldo edit shows up, you're going to watch it. So do not put hashtag Ronaldo because you're going to limit yourself to the amount of people who are going to see that video. So, don't put
77:26
Speaker A
tags, don't put descriptions, right? For your shorts, right? So, for shorts, no tags. And also, don't put descriptions.
77:38
Speaker A
As for selecting um visibility, I recommend you always select private before you upload. Um because when you select private, then it's going to just make sure YouTube's able to process fully. I'm going to go over a couple other settings later to kind of show you
77:51
Speaker A
guys what you need to do before you upload. All right. Advanced settings for this. I'm going to be honest. Make sure you don't select the category. If you have like entertainment or anything like that, you can just select none and it's
78:01
Speaker A
fine. For license, you could just do standard YouTube license. For video language and all this stuff right here, you can just leave it blank. If I'm going be honest, YouTube is getting really good at AI detection and they're
78:09
Speaker A
going to be able to translate videos for you automatically. Like I'm I'm betting you that people some people who are watching this video right now only speak Spanish and I YouTube automatically translated for me. So, I've gotten some
78:19
Speaker A
comments recently in other languages in French and Spanish and Portuguese, and it's awesome because people who are watching these videos don't even know English, but you're able to read these captions right now. You're seeing like right over here on the side of the
78:31
Speaker A
screen, all these captions, you're still learning. And YouTube has an AI detection where it will actually immediately translate these things for you. So, that's the settings I would have for your actual settings here. All right. Now, the next step, let's look at
78:45
Speaker A
your actual upload. When you are uploading a video and you go to detailed, make sure you have this video quality as SD and HD. One of my students I was working with recently did not have this enabled for their SD and they were
78:57
Speaker A
getting zero views per video. We fixed it. We put HD on because he was uploading caput in the wrong quality and immediately shot up to 30k views. Do not do this. Also, you see here that this guy, he kind of has all these hashtags
79:09
Speaker A
here. This is not a good thing to do. I see some people doing it. We want YouTube to find it automatically for us.
79:14
Speaker A
You know, you see some channels getting 50 million views a month doing this, right? But that's because they're targeting basically everyone in their entire niche. And the reason why my other channel, this one right here, is getting so much views is because I don't
79:26
Speaker A
use hashtags. I don't use descriptions. I don't use anything even in the title. I don't even like mention my niche. It's literally just like lol or like some caption and lol. That's it. That's what I do. So, I recommend you do the same
79:40
Speaker A
thing. Same thing over here. Don't use any tags. Um, also I recommend you get Vid IQ. So, do you guys see this little uh thing right here? This applies to long form, not short form. Short form really doesn't matter, but for long
79:52
Speaker A
form, if you guys are going to use Vid IQ, I'm not affiliated with them at all, by the way. They're just a really awesome tool. Um, if you guys use Vid IQ, um, you guys are going to have this
80:01
Speaker A
like little like caption score over here. I use Vid IQ Premium, so I get like infinite amount of these, but it'll basically give you a rating of how searchable and how clickable your caption is. And like you know, you want
80:10
Speaker A
this to be like preferably around like 95ish%. Um, so here I'll give you a great example of this. Right now, this is my personal channel that I always upload in, right? I upload long form videos.
80:21
Speaker A
You can see I use hashtags, I use descriptions here, and I also use tags here as well, right? The thing is though, do you see how my my title score is 96? Vid IQ will give you a score over
80:31
Speaker A
here. I don't recommend using these ones. These ones are pretty bad. But like I recommend like you know looking at your Vid IQ title score for your long form videos and just making sure this is optimized as well. Another thing make
80:40
Speaker A
sure your thumbnails for long form videos are also optimized. It's pretty important. Just make sure it's high quality. Don't upload bad quality thumbnails. I see some people asking why is my long form videos have a low clickthrough rate and their thumbnails
80:51
Speaker A
are in like 180p. It's like bro what do you think is going to happen? All right.
80:56
Speaker A
Anyways, I think that's pretty much it for this. I saw someone asking about related content. Should you have related videos here? No, you should not do not have related shorts on your video. And the reason why is because when you have
81:06
Speaker A
related shorts, it will decrease your attention because someone clicks on that video. It's going to immediately, you know, you'll be like halfway in, they'll click on it, and it'll immediately cut your attention and you'll see big drops.
81:15
Speaker A
So, don't have related content inside your shorts. Um, that's pretty much it for this video. I hope it was kind of helpful. I mean, I know it was pretty brief, but I went over kind of a pretty extensive amount of information,
81:25
Speaker A
especially with metadata. This is probably the most important thing from this video, by the way, for optimization. Make sure you set up all your channel stuff correctly. Um, if you guys have any different ideas or different opinions like, "Hey, Devin, I
81:35
Speaker A
do this and I still get like a decent amount of views." I'm telling you, if you're not getting 400 to 600 million views a month, then just listen to what I'm telling you to do because this is what you're supposed to do. All right? I
81:44
Speaker A
understand you may be getting 50 million views a month right now from, you know, doing what you're doing with hashtags and stuff like that. I promise you, you don't need it. If you want to maximize the most amount of views possible, don't
81:55
Speaker A
use hashtags. Don't use descriptions. Don't use any types of any type of tags, nothing like that because what do you want? We want to get the most amount of views possible. I mean, I'm pulling 1.4 billion views a month right now. So,
82:06
Speaker A
this is the strategies I use. If you want to achieve this, I think you should probably use it, too. I'm going to explain how you can do it and how you can get monetized to get 10 million views and overall just make a lot of
82:16
Speaker A
money because at the end of the day, we're trying to do this so we can make money, right? So, I'm going to explain how to actually get to the point where you can start making money like this consistently every single day. Because
82:25
Speaker A
I'm going be honest, if you can actually get to this point where you automate it, life becomes a lot easier. I mean, just the past couple days I've been moving.
82:32
Speaker A
You can kind of see like my background. I don't know if you can tell, but that shelf over there is completely falling over right now. And I have tons of IKEA boxes here. I've been moving the past couple of days. And I've been able to
82:44
Speaker A
generate tons of income in the background every single day. Hitting $800 days, hitting $500 days, hitting $200 days, even hitting $1,000 days on some of our accounts right now. So, I want to just kind of explain everything because I feel like not a lot of people
83:00
Speaker A
on YouTube actually explain how this stuff works, how to actually get monetized, and I want to be that guy for you. So, let's get into it. So if you don't know how to actually make money from YouTube, the first thing you need
83:11
Speaker A
to understand is how do you actually get monetized and how to make money, right?
83:15
Speaker A
So there is two criterias that you need to hit, right? And a lot of people get confused with the first one and the second one. So I'll kind of explain it a little more clearly so you can understand, right? So first of all, if
83:26
Speaker A
you guys don't know, first you need to get 3 million views to be able to apply for memberships. Now memberships is not making money through views. It is just the ability to be able to turn on memberships and super chats on your
83:39
Speaker A
channel so you can subscribe to someone and then actually pay a monthly fee to be able to support them further. Now, does anyone actually use this? No, not really. But this is a good first step to put your foot in the door to actually
83:51
Speaker A
get monetized, right? So once you actually do get these memberships, which also is really good because YouTube's AI is basically telling you that, hey, uh, this channel actually is legit and we are okay with actually giving them a
84:04
Speaker A
chance to make money, right? After you get through memberships, you're going to have a second criteria, which is going to be 10 million views and 1,000 subscribers. Now, if you were to ask me which one is harder between 10 million
84:19
Speaker A
views or 1,000 subscribers, I'm be honest with you guys, I would actually say probably the 10,000 subs or the 1,000 subscribers because um 10 million views is actually pretty easy to get and I'll explain how to hit it pretty easily
84:30
Speaker A
in this video. The thousand subscribers is harder because when you do call to actions or you ask people to subscribe, your attention dips, which overall makes your video actually get less views.
84:40
Speaker A
Getting views is easy. Getting subscribers is not so easy. But I'll explain how to use some call to action methods later so you guys can understand this further. Okay. So, first, how do we get the actual 10 million views to make
84:52
Speaker A
us money and why do we need to hit this? Well, when we hit 10 million views, we unlock the ability to make money through RPM. Now, RPM stands for revenue per million. I'm sure a lot of you guys know
85:03
Speaker A
what this is, right? But, uh, what it allows you to do is allows you to make views and turn these views into cash flow to make money, right? So, in order to actually hit this 10 million view mark, it needs to be engaged views. Now,
85:18
Speaker A
on average, 50% of the people who actually watch your video are considered engaged. So, let's say we actually need to hit 10 or 20 million views on our channel in total to be able to actually get monetized and make money. So, this
85:32
Speaker A
is like the actual stats. So, like for example, if I went to this channel here, you can see that we're at like 8.7 million views and we've made $12,000 this month. Now, this is from long form content. Now, if we go to this channel
85:43
Speaker A
here, we've made uh $9,000 this month. We've gotten 231 million views. Now, this is because we're doing short form content. Now, you need to hit this number here to be at least 20 million in order for you to
85:56
Speaker A
most likely be able to apply for monetization and actually be able to go through the process to unlock your RPM and start making money. Now, how do we actually hit this? Now, there's a couple key things we need to understand when
86:07
Speaker A
we're trying to hit this 20 million mark, right? Because this is the goal. We need to look at our channel as an exponential curve rather than a linear graph, right? So, when we're getting views, a lot of people think, okay, I'm
86:23
Speaker A
going to upload 100 videos this month and each video is going to get 20 20,000 views and I'm gonna hopefully hit my two million goal, right? So, people think that, okay, I'm going to upload one video and I'm going to get, let's say,
86:37
Speaker A
100,000 views here, 200,000 views here, 300,000 views here, and okay, maybe after I upload, you know, 200 videos, I can hit 20 million views. And that's the wrong mentality to have, right? You need to be looking at your graphs instead of
86:53
Speaker A
a linear curve where it's like this where it's straight, we need to imagine our graphs like this, right? We want to be looking for an exponential curve.
87:02
Speaker A
Now, in order to hit this, we use the snowball effect and momentum to be able to build momentum on our channel. Now, this is a part of the trust score, which I've gone over in many videos over many
87:13
Speaker A
different times. I made a 36 video boot camp explaining everything about how to do and increase your trust score. If you haven't watched it, I have it for free in the Discord and also in the um in the
87:26
Speaker A
bio as well if you want to check it out. So, when we use this snowball effect to be able to get more views, it's basically a multiplier, right? So, you can see here like even uh on some of our
87:36
Speaker A
most recent videos here, let me see. Like this channel here, we started uploading on this channel not even too long ago. Like, we just started uploading on it again. You can see the momentum. Like, we were literally getting like only 100,000 views per day,
87:48
Speaker A
which sounds like a lot, but remember, we're talking about YouTube automation here. It's really easy to get a lot of views. And we were only piggybacking off a couple shorts we uploaded in the past.
87:56
Speaker A
And you can see once we started uploading, look at the exponential growth, right? We have basically went from 1.5 or 150,000 views a day to 2.7 million views a day. And our 48 hour mark is 6.1 million, right? So, we've increased
88:13
Speaker A
pretty quickly, right? And the reason we've done this is we use a snowball effect of being able to multiply our videos by piggybacking off each one and referring other people from our channel to watch other videos. Now, how do we
88:26
Speaker A
get people who watches our video one time to be able to watch all of our videos on our shorts? Now, this is where the trust score comes in play because if you do certain things to increase your trust score, your videos are guaranteed
88:39
Speaker A
to get pushed to viewers over and over and over again, right? Because at the end of the day, we're trying to improve one metric. This metric is called casual viewers or CV. We're also trying to improve our RV, which is our regular
88:55
Speaker A
viewers. Now, if you actually go to your channel, click on audience, right? And you scroll down from monthly audience, you scroll down here. All right, you're going to see three different metrics underneath audience watch behavior.
89:10
Speaker A
You're going to see new viewers, casual viewers, and regular viewers. You can see here this channel is getting around 300 million views per month right now.
89:19
Speaker A
And we are at 56% casual viewer rating, which is a very very high casual view rating for especially a new channel because this channel is not even that old. If I actually go past 90 days, you can see
89:31
Speaker A
this channel was only about around a month or two months and a half old and we've gotten over half a billion views on this channel. Generated $24,000. So if we go to audience again and we scroll down you can see that our new viewers is
89:45
Speaker A
42% our casual viewers is 56% and our regular viewers is.1%. Now this will increase over time because this is a new channel regular viewers take longer to build but our casual viewers is the most important metric here. Now typically we
90:00
Speaker A
want our CV plus our RV rating. So, if we actually add both percentages together, right, we want both of these percentages to equal 55%.
90:11
Speaker A
This is a really good place to be about 55%. Okay? If it's lower, increase it.
90:17
Speaker A
If it's higher, decrease it. Now, I'm going to explain how to increase and decrease your CV and RV stat, and I'm going to explain why it's actually important. Because this metric allows you to be able to get consistent,
90:30
Speaker A
snowball effective views and actually make you sustainable money. Because at the end of the day, we're doing this YouTube automation to make good money over a long period of time. This is not a get-richqu scheme, right? This is a
90:41
Speaker A
long-term sustainable growth type of business where we can make money for a very long time without having to touch it because at the end of the day, how are we going to pay rent, right? We want to be able to make sure we're making
90:51
Speaker A
money every single month. Okay? So, in order to actually increase your CV and RV rating, you need to be able to increase your trust score. I'm just going to put TS for trust score. I've talked about it a lot, but I'll explain
91:03
Speaker A
it again real quick for anyone who doesn't understand. The main factors of the trust score, all right, is your swipe through ratio, your retention, and then your average view duration, uh, and then your length of video. Okay, so
91:16
Speaker A
retention is actually AVD over LOV, which is length of video. Swipe ratio, we want to be at 81.1%.
91:24
Speaker A
If you don't know what your swipe ratio is, it is basically uh how much people actually stay to watch your video when they see your channel. Your retention is how much percentage of people actually watch your video all the way through or
91:34
Speaker A
if they rewatch your video all the way through. Average view duration is the average length of how uh long they've watched your video for. And the LOV length of video is how long your video is, right? So typically the stats we
91:47
Speaker A
want here is our LOV wants to be 32 seconds. Our AVD we should have above our LOV, right? So we want above LOV.
91:54
Speaker A
Our retention should be AVD over LOV which is going to be above 100%. And then our sub ratio should be 81.1% or higher. All right, this is the metrics that you want to hit. All right, if you do not hit these metrics, you will not
92:08
Speaker A
get a casual viewer. If a viewer individually watches your video all the way through, right, you are most likely going to get pushed to that channel again, even higher if they interact with comments. Now, this is what I talked
92:23
Speaker A
about earlier using CTA methods to be able to get people to subscribe to come back to watch your channel. So, I'm going to talk about how I use CTAs to increase our CV and RV stat. All right?
92:36
Speaker A
Because some of our channels, we've hit insane amounts of subs in a very short period of time. For example, for one of our channels in the past two weeks, we've grown up from zero to 200,000 subscribers. Actually, one of our
92:48
Speaker A
students here, I'll show you right now. So you can see here even if I click on the see live subscriber count, this is how much subscribers we had 20 days ago and this is how much we grew in the past
93:00
Speaker A
20 days. All right, so we're at 232,000 subscribers within 20 days of actually scaling up this channel. Now, how do we do this? We use the 2CTA method. Right now, what the 2CA method is is basically using a visual, an audio hook to be able
93:19
Speaker A
to maximize the amount of subscribers we can get without seeing a dip in our retention. Now, remember our retention, we need to keep above 100%. Right? So, how do we do a call to action on our channel without losing people from
93:35
Speaker A
actually leaving the video? Right? Because typically when we do CTAs, right? Let's say this is a retention graph. We see a dip at the beginning, which always happens, and then we have it like something like this, and then a
93:45
Speaker A
dip here, right? This dip here is usually what the normal CTA looks like because people say like, "Oh, hey, don't forget to like and subscribe." People do not care. They will leave, right? They will leave. But there's a way to fix
93:57
Speaker A
this retention graph. So, we can do multiple CTAs during our video, right? And our graph will look clean just like this. And we can have a CTA here and a CTA here as well. Now, we do this by
94:12
Speaker A
using emotional tension to be able to keep the viewer watching while being very subtle because people do not like being told what to do, but they like being implied things or they like being shown things while there's tension
94:28
Speaker A
happening. I'm going to give you a good example of this. Let's say I'm want to ask you to subscribe right now, right?
94:33
Speaker A
And there is a girl behind me who's walking on a tightroppe who's about to fall down and there's fire below me and there's lions chasing him. Right? This is what Mr. Beast does, right? He says, "Hey, before we get back to our sponsor,
94:45
Speaker A
let's see if this person is going to be able to survive this shark attack, right?" And he uses tension to his advantage to be able to keep the viewer while he is using some type of CTA. Now, you could do the same thing, right? And
94:57
Speaker A
you can be very subtle about it, right? For example, Zach D film sometimes has subscribe inscribed on his uh videos when he is doing some type of like three animation. Maybe there's like a gun or something and he's shooting it. And
95:11
Speaker A
maybe says subscribe to Zack Films on it while he's doing it. All right? Because they understand that asking for too much makes people push away, not come toward.
95:21
Speaker A
So the first CTA we like doing is a visual CTA. All right, we call this the VCTA. Now, the visual CTA is going to be something that shows up on the screen and is subtle, but we don't ask for too
95:32
Speaker A
much. Even a popup is okay, but we want to integrate it with our video. For example, let's say you're doing some type of, you know, Roblox something. If you're doing some type of modded server or something, you know, edit in some
95:44
Speaker A
type of like Roblox chat or something where it's just very very easy to show up or you're doing some type of commentary, maybe have a commentary of like a dog with an AI holding this like little sign that says subscribe on it
95:57
Speaker A
there. Now you got a visual CTA, but you want to make it subtle. Don't ask them for the CTA yet, right? We're going to ask them for it later. The next step after we progress in the video, right,
96:08
Speaker A
before we ask for our second CTA, so this is CTA 1. This is going to be CTA 2. This is going to be the visual and audio CTA, right? This is called the VA CTA. Now, this VA CTA is going to be a
96:22
Speaker A
visual and audio call to action of them saying, "Hey, subscribe if you love your mom." Right? Or we can take it a step further and say, "Subscribe and comment heart emojis if you love your mom." Now, this is going to get a lot of people to
96:35
Speaker A
engage, but it does not feel like you're pushing so hard cuz you warmed them up with the first CTA. And typically, we want to do this toward the end when there is a high tension thing happening right before the payoff when it's about
96:50
Speaker A
to happen. Include the CTA, but make it subtle. Integrate it with your video. Do not stop and say, "Hey, by the way, do this." Integrate it with your video.
97:00
Speaker A
Okay? For example, if you're doing a high tension chase where you're doing nine nights and there's this guy chasing you, right? Like the wolf is chasing you. Subscribe if you think I'm going to survive. All right, boom. It's
97:12
Speaker A
integrated with your story. All right, if you're doing some type of ranking thing, subscribe if you think this is going to be crazy. All right, subscribe if you think he's going to survive.
97:21
Speaker A
Doing some type of dog commentary. Subscribe if you think the dog is cute. Right, we want to do something that is integrated. just stopping the video and telling them to subscribe and like and do all this random stuff. They do not
97:34
Speaker A
care. They don't like being told what to do. Do you like being told what to do?
97:38
Speaker A
Probably not, right? So, they don't like to either, right? This is how I keep my retention looking straight while getting a ton of subs. So, now that you understand how to use a 2CA method to be able to get a call to action, to be able
97:50
Speaker A
to increase our CB, because remember, we're trying to increase our casual viewer and our regular viewer rating.
97:56
Speaker A
Now you understand how to actually increase your snowball effect to be able to integrate it into your videos to get more engagement to overall get more views. So if you integrate the trust score with the 2CTA method, your videos
98:08
Speaker A
will go more viral. All right? It's going to work. If it doesn't work, you're doing something wrong because this works for every one of my students.
98:15
Speaker A
It works for everyone on my channels that I'm running right now. This is how I'm pulling so much revenue, like six figures every month in AdSense through just using these two methods. All right.
98:25
Speaker A
Now, if this doesn't work for you, I think you may need to go back to the drawing board, see if your niche is good, make sure your content quality is high enough. If you're not hitting these metrics consistently, then that's most
98:35
Speaker A
likely why your videos aren't getting pushed. So, everyone already knows about all these hashtags that have been going around, these marriage proposal, these um cake training hashtags, all these like little stupid hashtags that are getting millions and millions of views
98:47
Speaker A
every single day on YouTube, right? So, there was actually just an announcement that I actually just found out from my Discord server. One of the people in my Discord server kind of pinged me and they said this was 6 hours before they
98:58
Speaker A
got there one of the one of the accounts they were looking at got banned. Okay.
99:02
Speaker A
And I did more research. I dig really deep into this. There are so many channels getting banned in the past 12 hours or so of these channels using these hashtags. Now, I don't know why it started 12 hours ago, but I started
99:16
Speaker A
talking to all my YouTube buddies. Like literally 12 hours ago, I started talking to all of them. All of them started telling me that their accounts started getting banned. Now, I have a very big network of people. I'm getting
99:24
Speaker A
over 1.5 billion views a month across all social media platforms. Not using hashtags. Actually, I'm completely against hashtags, but I want to make this known to the public because there are so many people going to lose their channels. Okay, so first of all, what
99:37
Speaker A
exactly are these hashtags? So, if you've seen these hashtags before like marriage proposal or jada or any of these hashtags that um are pulling an insane amount of views right now, basically what this is is it is um
99:49
Speaker A
people from India, right? So people from India, they use these hashtags and they spam them, right? So they spam these hashtags and it artificially increases the amount of views that are actually getting shown to those hashtags on YouTube. So for example, the people who
100:04
Speaker A
are creating these hashtags are getting more views because the first people on the hashtag. So YouTube's going to push those people out more. All right, that I hope that makes sense. The the point of this though is because there are so many
100:14
Speaker A
people doing this, YouTube is starting to detect this as spam. And I'm going to go into later in this video how music deals are also getting affected by this and why music deals got shut down because potentially of this as well.
100:25
Speaker A
Because if you guys don't know, Blastoff Music, the Luna music, CPM music, all of these people who are uh using music deals, all of them got taken down. I don't know if you guys saw this.
100:36
Speaker A
Basically, YouTube is keeping everything internal now. They're not letting any external music deals out. The reason why is because this cuz people keep spamming hashtags and then people are losing their accounts because of it. So, let me go in a little more detail about
100:48
Speaker A
YouTube's policy and what exactly this means. So, when you use a spam, right, if you use a a hashtag that is unrelated to the video, that is considered against YouTube's policy. If a hashtag is against, right, not even not even spam,
101:04
Speaker A
against you, against the the video itself. For example, if you make a video about soccer and you do a hashtag baseball, there is a chance that YouTube may deem that as unnecessary and they could actually take you down for that.
101:17
Speaker A
All right? So, any hashtag against nothing to do with the video has a potential to be taken down. One. All right. Second thing, YouTube sees this as spam. If you use the same thing over and over and over again, um, and they
101:32
Speaker A
see a lot of accounts doing this as well, YouTube will see this as spam and they'll take it down. I'm going to take it a step further as well. All right, a lot of AI bot channels are using this
101:42
Speaker A
hashtag and that's why these accounts like this one here is getting taken down because these accounts um are getting linked to AI bot channels. And because these accounts are getting linked to AI bot channels, YouTube may think that you
101:55
Speaker A
are an AI and they will immediately take down your channel. Now, there's speculation going around that on October 20th, which is when YouTube's going to be paying out a lot of creators before then, they're going to ban a lot of
102:07
Speaker A
creators and keep all the ad revenue to themselves. Because remember, YouTube is a business. YouTube is trying to make money. So, if YouTube's trying to make money and they see all these hashtags are basically taking away views from
102:19
Speaker A
other creators, by the way, these hashtags are taking away views from organic creators who are working hard trying to just make, you know, a living for themselves from views, not using these spamming hashtags. And because AI bots are taking it over, they're spam
102:31
Speaker A
content. It's not against it's not actually continuous with the video. It's against the video. YouTube is going to basically take all these hashtags down.
102:38
Speaker A
And when a YouTube takes the hashtags down, they don't just remove the videos. They strike your entire channel. Three strikes and you're out. And it's not just your channel. It is your entire Gmail gets taken off Google for YouTube.
102:53
Speaker A
You can no longer use it. On top of that, if you have a monetized channel with an AdSense connected to it, your entire AdSense account gets shut down.
103:02
Speaker A
Every channel you have connected, every AdSense account you have connected, anything gets taken down. I have over 37 channels that I am running right now.
103:11
Speaker A
And if any of these channels go wrong and one of them gets messed up, I would lose all 37 channels. All right, the reason why is because when YouTube sees that one Gmail is linked to multiple channels and you get stried three times,
103:25
Speaker A
you get removed. Now, originally I thought this was fine. You know, you could have multiple accounts underneath one Gmail and it wasn't a big deal.
103:33
Speaker A
Well, actually, it is a big deal now. Sorry, I needed to burp because um originally I saw Mr. Beast doing this, right? And Mr. Mr. Beast would basically have all of his channels linked to one Gmail. The reason why is because Mr.
103:44
Speaker A
Beast has a team of people who review his videos before they upload it. It's basically impossible for him to get a strike because that's such a big team working with him and he knows he's not going to get a strike. If you're
103:53
Speaker A
uploading even slightly risky content, you know, and there's a chance that you're connected to other channels.
103:58
Speaker A
Three strikes and you're out. Your AdSense is done. Your YouTube Gmail is done. If you use an ID verification, you can no longer make another channel on YouTube with that ID. You can no longer connect it to your bank account. you can
104:10
Speaker A
no longer connect it to your AdSense account. YouTube has a very strict policy when it comes to termination. If your video gets terminated or sorry, your channel gets terminated, you cannot upload videos on YouTube anymore. You just it's against their policy. All
104:24
Speaker A
right? So, this is not just going to lead to channel termination, but your YouTube Gmail and all future money that you can make on YouTube is going to be eliminated. Basically, your job as a YouTuber is going to be done. All right?
104:39
Speaker A
If you mess this up, you get banned. Your dream of being a YouTuber is over.
104:45
Speaker A
You lose all the money and all the potential to make money in the future.
104:49
Speaker A
No exceptions. I hope you guys understand how important this is. So, if you're playing the risk game right now with using these type of hashtags, immediately stop it. Go into your YouTube, change every title, make every one of them different. All right? and
105:05
Speaker A
stop using these hashtags because YouTube is going to do a mass ban soon and take down all of these channels. So, please please do not use these hashtags anymore, okay? Because you I don't want any of you to lose your money. I don't
105:19
Speaker A
want any of you to lose your future with YouTube content creation. I've made over $110,000 this month off YouTube right now. This is terrifying for me because I did it on my test channel and I'm going and changing it all of it straight after
105:30
Speaker A
this video. I made the video first and I'm going to go change it after. But if I lose that channel, I will lose all of my income source from YouTube, which is over $100,000 a month right now across
105:42
Speaker A
all the channels I'm running. So, please change this hashtags. I don't I I hope you understand how important this is.
105:48
Speaker A
Okay, so yeah, that's the first part of this video, right? I don't want you guys to lose your future your future with YouTube content creation, YouTube ad revenue, YouTube moneymaking. Um, the other thing as well is if you guys have
105:59
Speaker A
noticed, YouTube has taken down all music policies. Uh, I don't know if you guys have seen like all the music deals and stuff. All of them are getting taken down, right? And I know Blastoff is saying that like, oh, they're trying to
106:10
Speaker A
figure it out and they're not going to get taken down. They are getting taken down. YouTube has been seeing that spam in general has been taking away the actual uh views that real creators should be getting and creators are
106:24
Speaker A
losing money and losing audience, losing views and YouTube is losing satisfaction of their audience. All right. So what does YouTube want in the end of the day?
106:34
Speaker A
All right, YouTube wants three things. They want people on their platform as long as possible, right? On platform, they want people to make them money.
106:47
Speaker A
YouTube wants money because they're a business and they want viewers to be satisfied. All right? Now, in YouTube's eyes, satis um sat being satisfied is through emotions. If a a viewer feels a good emotion, they're satisfied. Now, what do you think these spam videos make
107:04
Speaker A
viewers feel? They don't feel anything or they feel annoyed. All right? And if these view if these spam hashtags are making YouTubers not or making people not satisfied, YouTube is losing one of their three pillars of what supports
107:19
Speaker A
their platform. If people aren't satisfied, people aren't going to sit on their platform. And what does that mean?
107:24
Speaker A
YouTube is at risk of losing money. Okay, this is how important this is because these spam hashtags is ruining the entire platform and ruining YouTube's business model because advert how does YouTube make money? YouTube makes money by advertisers paying
107:40
Speaker A
YouTube right on Google ads to show videos on or show ads on YouTube videos.
107:46
Speaker A
And if these advertisers are paying YouTube and the advertisers are not making money back because you people are uploading these spam hashtags, what does that mean? It means that YouTube is not going to be getting more money because
107:56
Speaker A
advertisers aren't willing to spend more money on YouTube, which means these hashtags are hurting YouTube's money-making ability, which is how they fund their platform. You guys understand how important this is? All the money that YouTube could be making right now
108:10
Speaker A
is getting lost. That's why they remove brand deals. That's why they're banning people with hashtags. Any type of spam is going to get you potentially banned.
108:18
Speaker A
Now, even using the don't click the sound. You guys know the don't click the sound where people use this. Like for example, if you guys know Rankzilla, he's a very, very big YouTuber right now. Um, Rankzilla uses do not click the sound every single
108:32
Speaker A
time. This is now banable. If YouTube sees this repeatedly doing this over and over again, any type of spam is bannable. Now, right? So, spam in general. Don't click the sound. Now, there's caveats to this, right? If you're using don't click the sound.
108:47
Speaker A
All right? Don't click the sound. But you can change the title every time like don't click the sound please don't click the audio um or like audio don't click or using different emojis that's okay but if you're doing this over and over
109:00
Speaker A
again where it's the exact same thing every single time you are in a rude awakening for what can happen to you all right I don't want any of you to lose your channels at the end of the day
109:11
Speaker A
YouTube doesn't even care about if you have hashtags or titles because you could literally put anything my biggest channels I literally just put like uh something something L or whatever law and I don't use any type of hashtags or
109:24
Speaker A
descriptions. I've always been against hashtags and descriptions and this just proves my point further. Stop using hashtags, okay? Especially these spam ones cuz you will lose your channel. I am preaching this like the Bible right now because this means a lot to me. This
109:38
Speaker A
is $100,000 a month I could potentially be losing right now. All right? Like this is why I'm so passionate about this right now. So please take my word for this. Stop using hashtags. Spread the word. If you have any YouTube friends,
109:49
Speaker A
send them this video and tell them immediately, "Stop doing this because I don't want anybody to lose your your account. Don't use any don't click the sound like that." If you're going to do it, make it a little variable. Don't
109:57
Speaker A
click the audio. Please don't click the sound. Please don't click the audio. Use different emojis just so YouTube sees a little bit of uh variety rather than repetitiveness. I hope this video was helpful. I'm going to go change my
110:09
Speaker A
channel right now so I don't get banned. I love you guys. Um, I want to kind of give you guys a rundown of how I think about ideas myself and why having a good idea is important. You know, because if you
110:22
Speaker A
don't have a good idea, you're not going to be able to get the reach that you should be getting, right? Cuz one good idea is not worth 2x or 5x, 10x, or even 100x the amount of views uh that you
110:33
Speaker A
could have for an okay idea because a good idea is worth 1,000x. And don't take my word for it. This is what Mr.
110:40
Speaker A
Beast has said. Um, so let's talk about it, right? And you know, before we get into it a little bit more, just these are a couple other videos we've had good ideas for and it generated a lot of
110:49
Speaker A
views and a lot of income. Like this video that generated 160 million views and $12,000. This is the same channel, by the way. This these are the same channels here. And then we have a couple other channels here like this channel
111:00
Speaker A
here, 127 million views and $4,000. And then, you know, I can keep showing you guys more examples, but you get the point. Um, I have a very good idea of how to make good ideas. So, let's talk about it right now. So, the number one
111:15
Speaker A
thing I think about when I'm trying to make a good idea is understanding that you do not have to be original and you do not have to reinvent the wheel. All right? A lot of people when they're coming into the YouTube game or just
111:27
Speaker A
social media in general, trying to make money online, it doesn't even matter if it's just social media, it's business in general, they try to reinvent the wheel.
111:33
Speaker A
This means like they, you know, they try to make like the next the next AirPods or something like that or they're trying to make the next iPhone or something and instead you should be seeing what's already working, right, for whatever
111:46
Speaker A
you're doing and copy that person, right? First you should replicate, then you should reiterate. Okay? So for example, let's say I'm making videos in the ranking niche, right? Ranking niche is a very very good niche on YouTube right now. It is making a lot of money,
112:00
Speaker A
right? And ignore my chicken scratch handwriting. I'm writing on a mouse. Okay. But let's say you are making videos in the ranking niche. Okay. If you're making videos in the ranking niche, what I would do is I would go
112:11
Speaker A
scope out my top 10 competitors in the ranking niche. Sort by most popular, watch 30 of their videos. So, it's going to be 300 of the most popular videos from the top 10 channels. And then after that, what I would do is I would look at
112:25
Speaker A
the ideas they have for their videos. So, let me write this out for you so you can see it again. Look at your top 10 competitors, right? After that, look at their top 30 videos, 30 vids, and we'll just say comp here.
112:40
Speaker A
And then after that, you should look at their ideas, right? Cuz this is going to give you a good idea of what good ideas are circulating in this specific niche.
112:50
Speaker A
And this applies to anything, right? If you want to do Roblox, look at the top 10 Roblox creators and then make videos around that specific thing, right? when you look at their most popular videos.
112:59
Speaker A
Or if you want to do something, let's say in finance, let's say you're doing long form content, you want to make finance content, look at your top competitors in the finance niche and then maybe make videos similar to that.
113:09
Speaker A
All right? It's okay to steal people's ideas as long as you're getting your foot in the door. After you use those ideas, then you can reiterate because you understand the process behind making those videos. Okay. So, the reason I'm
113:24
Speaker A
making this video in the first place is because I actually got this question from one of my students. His name is Tony. He's a really, really awesome guy.
113:30
Speaker A
And um I helped him scale up to like 4K per month recently. And he has this channel that's been blowing up, right?
113:35
Speaker A
He's gotten like 60 million views in the past like 28 days. And he kind of hit this roadblock of like, hey, I feel like I have this good idea here and I want to keep making videos like this, but I
113:46
Speaker A
don't know when I should stop or how to find new ideas. And I told him like look at what's working and reiterate. And then also I'm going to explain the second part of how to create good ideas after this. Um after I explain you know
113:59
Speaker A
looking at competitors because there's two ways to do this right the first way is looking at competitors. The second way is basically reiterating your own content. All right. So we'll talk about that in a second. All right. So remember
114:10
Speaker A
uh look at your competitors find good ideas and then you can copy them. After you copy them, just throw your own style in once you understand the vibe of the content. Right? So then you reiterate or do your own content afterward, right?
114:27
Speaker A
Own content. Okay. Now, what do we do if we already have a good idea? Let's say we made a video and it got like 10 million views and I'm like, "Okay, hey, this is a good idea here, but I want to
114:38
Speaker A
make more videos like it." because you want to make more videos like this cuz you've seen it worked and you want to make it work again cuz you know it's going to make you money, right? So, a good example of this is Mr. Beast,
114:48
Speaker A
right? Uh Mr. Beast, what he does is he has a good idea and then he basically spins that overall umbrella idea underneath smaller ideas. So, for example, if we go here and we look at Mr. Beast videos, right, we have like
115:01
Speaker A
100 people versus World's Biggest Trap. And if we scroll down, you're probably going to see survive 100 days uh trapped in a private jet. And then you'll see scroll down a little further and I'm sure we're going to see another 100
115:12
Speaker A
persons somewhere where it's like, you know, 2,000 people fighting for $5 million, right? Or 7 days stranded in a cave. Like he does like either time videos or experiment videos or experience videos, right? And he basically takes these three umbrella
115:25
Speaker A
ideas whether it's like a time challenge uh an experience or an experiment on people and then he does smaller ideas in those niche because he knows it works right and then all it is is just uh replacing the values of you know the
115:38
Speaker A
content equation right so for example if you're like uh I spent blank days doing this I spent seven days doing this then you could say I spent seven days in prison I spent seven days in a cave I
115:50
Speaker A
spent seven days in a circle I spent spent seven days making content, right? And then all of a sudden you have all these ideas here, right? And then you can filter out which ones are good based off your retention and intellectual gut,
116:03
Speaker A
right? Because as you go into this content and you start doing this first by looking at your competitors, right?
116:08
Speaker A
Once you understand this, you will build this thing called the content gut. And this content gut will basically be able to just tell you on instinct what's going to do well and what's not. Right?
116:19
Speaker A
And this is not be able to be taught. I cannot teach you this. This is built through repetition, right? So the more videos you upload, the more better you will get at this. I've uploaded tens of thousands of videos, right? We run 36
116:31
Speaker A
channels right now, right? If we go back to my analytics here, like we run close to 36 channels, right? And a lot of these are automated and and I've uploaded tens of thousands of videos.
116:41
Speaker A
And the reason why I'm able to run all these channels and do all of this and make, you know, six figures a month in AdSense revenue is because I have built this skill over years and years of repetition. And you will not be able to
116:54
Speaker A
master this skill until you actually put in the work. So stop studying, right? You know, all these videos, it's good to learn, but stop studying so much and start taking action toward uploading these videos. Like if you're watching
117:05
Speaker A
all of these courses and stuff like that, cuz you know, I'm I'm sure if you're watching this, you've probably looked at like the rest of the course material I have on my channel. I have like two free courses, right? I don't
117:14
Speaker A
sell courses or anything like that cuz I think it's a little gay to sell courses.
117:17
Speaker A
I give information for free. But I'm sure you guys have like seen these videos, right? Where like I have like, you know, playlists here where I give lots of information for free. We have eight hour courses. But if you're
117:26
Speaker A
watching all these courses and you're not putting any actionable steps into your content, then you're wasting your time. you should stop watching these videos, right? Because the point of this is for you to learn and then take action
117:37
Speaker A
so you can make money. So yeah, um if you want to make uh your ideas basically replicatable to be able to uh keep getting consistent views, make a formula, right? Like for example, like if you're doing Roblox and you're doing
117:49
Speaker A
like opening blank or testing how many hits it takes to break blank, make a formula like I spent X here in blank.
118:01
Speaker A
Like this is a good formula. Make the formula and then replicate it across multiple things. Right? These are the two ways I think of ideas. Either I look at my competitors, copy and reiterate after I reate, I make my own ideas and
118:13
Speaker A
then my own ideas I replicate over and over again using the Mr. Beast method, right? That's basically how I make good ideas. And you know, I do this over so many channels. And I'll take it a step further to explain how you can do this
118:25
Speaker A
over multiple channels, right? So each niece is a little different, right? For example, if you're doing ranking, right, compared to Roblox, uh, compared to like a long form channel, it's a little bit different. So, I'll go over a couple
118:38
Speaker A
different niches, and I hope this kind of nails in the the overall idea of how to do this. Okay, so let's say we're doing ranking, right? Ranking. So, what ranking is is it's basically ranking the craziest moments captured on, you know,
118:54
Speaker A
video. If it's on video, you can make it into a ranking. For example, we have dogs or we have people being struck by lightning or we have craziest animal encounters, right? Struck by lightning or we have like uh craziest animal
119:11
Speaker A
encounters or we have something like um you know like craziest buildings, craziest car. I got just keep going you know it's craziest things in general.
119:21
Speaker A
What this is is an experience. When you showcase these videos, right, of craziest blank moments, craziest X moments, craziest blank whatever, right?
119:31
Speaker A
It is showcasing to the viewer the craziest moments caught on film. So, your idea behind making these videos is, okay, I'm going to make videos on dogs.
119:41
Speaker A
What are the craziest dogs driving cars moments? Dogs listening to AirPods moments, dogs playing music moments. A good idea I have when I'm trying to flip ideas over is I look around my room and I'm like, "Okay, there's a water bottle
119:55
Speaker A
right here." All right. Okay. What did good before when water bottle flips were popular? Well, water bottle flips were very well. If I'm in a dog ranking niche, what if I made videos on dogs flipping water bottles, right? Crazy as
120:07
Speaker A
dogs flipping water bottle moments. And then boom, you have a whole idea around this. Okay, so you can turn anything into a good idea if your ideation process is good and then you have infinite ideas which is how I run so
120:19
Speaker A
many channels and upload so much content, right? Because my ideation is infinite. I am not limited by creativity because I have a system in place for this and I want you to take this skill and apply it to your own channel or
120:31
Speaker A
channels so you can be able to not run out of ideas and then get a lot of views and then of course make money, right? So basically turn ideas into more ideas.
120:43
Speaker A
That's for ranking. Okay. Now let's say we're doing Roblox. Okay. In Roblox, I'm sure a lot of you guys who play Roblox know the game 99 Nights. Okay. Now 99 Nights is a pretty popular game right now. It's the most popular game on
120:55
Speaker A
Roblox. and what you can do to have good ideas. Let's say you make a video and it gets 1 million views and it's uh ranking or let's say it's um hitting like these uh these bosses and seeing how long it
121:09
Speaker A
takes to kill them, right? And then you have like five bosses and it takes like one number, three number, five number, and six number, right? What you could do is go on a modded server and then you could be like, "Okay, I'm going to do
121:19
Speaker A
this over every single item inside this entire game." and you take one good idea that did well and then replicate it over 10 other ideas, right? And then boom, you'll notice it's the exact same things here. Turn the idea into more ideas,
121:34
Speaker A
right? And I'm just honestly I'm not going to write more ideas again. I'm just going to do this right here.
121:37
Speaker A
There's more ideas. All right? And then you could keep doing this over and over if you're doing long form content, right? You're doing long form content.
121:44
Speaker A
Say uh you make videos about uh let's say you're doing commentary on uh Twitter uh drama, right? You basically just go to Twitter, see what's doing like, you know, has a lot of drama and then you make videos on that. And then
121:59
Speaker A
you see what was popular two weeks ago and then bring it back up and start more drama, right? One of our channels is up $22,000 this month and it's a Twitter drama YouTube channel, right? And then also we
122:10
Speaker A
got a Spotify deal as well that's up another 30 grand. We're up 52 grand on this channel this month because we have a Spotify deal and then we have uh just the YouTube channel. It's generating 22K. So, there's all types of way to
122:23
Speaker A
make money here. I I'll show you the channel real quick so I can just show you. So, of course, I'm not going to leak the channel. And it looks like we're up 23 grand. I didn't even realize. I thought we were up 22. But
122:31
Speaker A
you can see here that we just upload a lot of long form content and we get a lot of views. And you don't need a lot of views on long form to make a lot of money. You know, it works for long form,
122:38
Speaker A
it works for short form. As long as your ideation process is good, you will make money regardless. And what we've done on this channel is we just take things that are working and we just replicate it over and over and over again, like
122:48
Speaker A
catching the craziest Predator Roblox YouTubers, right? And then we just make commentary on like uh 10 of those videos and then all of them do very well. So anyways, I hope this video was helpful for you guys getting good ideation
123:01
Speaker A
processes. Implement this into your own channel. get good ideas and then start actually making money from your channel by making sustainable income, right?
123:10
Speaker A
Because the entire point of me teaching you this skill specifically is not for you to make get-richquick one-time income, but to make consistent income over a long period of time. That is how we're making so much money every single
123:21
Speaker A
month across all the channels we're running. I'm going to explain how to make YouTube hooks so good YouTube has to give you views and give you absurd amounts of money like this video that generated $12,000 of one single video.
123:32
Speaker A
This is day five of the Vue maximizing boot camp. Let's get straight into it.
123:35
Speaker A
So, the very first thing you have to understand when you're trying to make a good hook for a YouTube short, you have to understand the metric that actually measures how good your hook is. So, if you go to your video here and you click
123:45
Speaker A
on engagement, scroll down, you're going to see this right here that says how viewers engage and a stayed to watch ratio with a swipeway ratio. So, this is a very important metric to look at. Make sure you guys go to your own YouTube
123:57
Speaker A
algorithm and do this along with the video so you can see this for yourself as we're going through this. For the 171 million view video, we had a 85.2% swipe ratio. And for the 159 million view video, we had a 80.3% swipe ratio. Now,
124:13
Speaker A
really the ideal swipe ratio you want to have is 81.1%. We're going to explain why this video went viral and all the other videos did as well and how you can utilize this and systematize it so you can get good swipe ratios every single
124:25
Speaker A
time on every single show you upload to get you more views and make you more money. And keep in mind, this system that I'm about to give you is a system that I've used across multiple channels and multiple videos to consistently get
124:34
Speaker A
millions and millions of views. Like this video that got 55 million views, this one that got 56 million views, this one that got another 55 million views, this one that got 42 million views, and this one that also got 46 million views.
124:46
Speaker A
And this is one of many different channels that we are running right now. So we use this across a lot of channels and we get good results on all of them.
124:54
Speaker A
So when we were trying to make a good hook, we're basically trying to get the viewer to convince them to give us their attention, right? Cuz basically every single video that they watch, we are competing for their attention to watch
125:06
Speaker A
our video. And as I go over this again and again in every single video, when we are trying to understand why a viewer stays to watch, we really need to understand what YouTube wants us to do for the viewer. So what does YouTube
125:17
Speaker A
actually want from us before we understand how to make a good hook? YouTube wants three things from us.
125:21
Speaker A
YouTube wants us to make them money because they are a business. YouTube wants people to stay on their platform as long as humanly possible. And then YouTube also wants us to make sure the viewer is satisfied. All right? And I'm
125:35
Speaker A
going to go over this satisfied a little more in detail in a second. But these are the three pillars. Money, stay on platform, and satisfied. Now you can understand here that stayed on the platform is of course going to be the
125:48
Speaker A
second pillar which is our hook. So this is why YouTube wants us to have good hooks for our videos. Also if they actually stay to watch then they can actually watch your video and then we end up making more money because of our
125:58
Speaker A
higher average view duration which we're going to go over in tomorrow's boot camp. So understanding how to make a good hook means you need to understand the different types of hooks that actually exist in the first place. So
126:07
Speaker A
first of all there is a hook where you give context to the viewer and then there is a anti-hook where you don't give context to the viewer and both of these perform very very very well. These are the only two hooks that you need to
126:22
Speaker A
understand to make sure your videos go viral cuz I implement these type of hooks into all of these videos over here and all of these videos are performing very well right now. So pay attention to this part of the video. I want you to
126:32
Speaker A
imagine your entire YouTube video as a story line starting from start to finish. This is a storyline plot. Right?
126:40
Speaker A
In the very beginning, you can choose your H for hook and then your ah for anti-hook. I'll be using these abbreviations for the rest of this video. So when we are trying to hook them in, I'm going to give some examples
126:52
Speaker A
of what you can use as a hook and what you can use as an anti-hook across any niche because this applies to any niche as long as you are able to actually implement it. It can be faceless, it can
127:03
Speaker A
be not faceless, it can be commentary, it could even be wordless where you just don't even speak. As long as you use the system, it's going to help you. So first, let's go over the hook. So what a
127:12
Speaker A
hook really is, if we break it down, it is giving context to the viewer. So what does that exactly mean? Giving context to the viewer is saying something like, "Hey, in this video I'm going to explain why dogs are the best animal." Or, "In
127:24
Speaker A
this video, I'm going to explain how to make good hooks." Or, "In this video, do you guys get the idea? I'm giving context to what I'm about to talk about." So, basically, you're not surprised, right? And this is good
127:35
Speaker A
because if we're trying to target a certain audience, we want them to make sure they feel comfortable when they're watching our video to make sure they're not wasting their time because, as you guys know, time is the most important
127:44
Speaker A
currency in this day and age, in this economy. But for shorts, it's a little bit different because they're actually randomly scrolling to see your video, right? So, if they're randomly scrolling to see your video, they aren't exactly looking for it. They're kind of just
127:55
Speaker A
getting showed it to them in front of them. So, we basically have to convince them within 3 seconds of why our video is worth their time to give the next 30 or so seconds to to watch an entire
128:05
Speaker A
video. So, if you don't master this down, you will not get views. So, a good way to give context to the viewer and actually keep them engaged. For example, if we're doing animal commentary, maybe we're doing some type of fact, maybe
128:14
Speaker A
we're doing some type of like Roblox video, we can say something like, "You won't believe." Saying something like, "You won't believe is a really good way to get them engaged because then they're wondering, well, what do I not believe?
128:25
Speaker A
I need to understand more of this video to actually watch it." So, say something like, "You won't believe the craziest dog facts." Or, "You won't believe what happened to this Roblox YouTuber." Or, "You won't believe what happened at this
128:34
Speaker A
place at this time at blah blah blah." Right? So saying something like you won't believe is a great way to give context without giving away the full information. Because if we give away everything in this video, right? If we
128:46
Speaker A
give away everything in the first couple seconds, then they're not going to stay to watch because they don't care because they already know, right? So we have to basically edge the line of, hey, we want to give context and give them kind of a
128:56
Speaker A
little bit of information, but not too much. So saying you won't believe and then blank after this is a really good way to do a hook. Another good way to do a hook is saying something like, "Do you
129:05
Speaker A
guys remember when?" This is more for rants. This is more for commentary. Do you guys remember when? Do you guys remember when blank? Remember when Obama blank? Remember when Trump blank?
129:14
Speaker A
Remember when Fearless, the you Fortnite YouTuber did blank? Right? So, this is also good. Uh, if you say something like, uh, do you remember? It makes a viewer feel like, do I remember what?
129:24
Speaker A
And then they actually have to get context to watch the rest of the video.
129:28
Speaker A
And then if they actually care about it, they'll stay at that point. Right? So, these are two good ways you won't believe or you won't remember or do you remember. Um, these are good contexts to make good hooks. Now, let's talk about
129:39
Speaker A
anti-hooks because I'm going to be honest, I don't use hooks too much. I've noticed that anti-hooks work far better uh for the YouTube algorithm because it's much easier to get someone in when you don't give them full context to the
129:52
Speaker A
video. So, they have to figure it out themselves, but we edge them enough where they actually feel a little bit interested regardless. Right. So, now we're talking about anti-hooks.
130:00
Speaker A
Antihooks, I think, is the most powerful form of short form uh swipe ratios in this day and age right now. A lot of huge YouTubers like Mr. Beast use it, Zack D. Films uses it, and a lot of high
130:11
Speaker A
ranking channels use it as well. Uh because anti-hooks basically force the viewer to watch. It puts them in a position where if they don't watch, they feel bad, right? And that may sound a little bit bad, you know, when I say
130:22
Speaker A
that out loud, but it's true. If you can make your viewer feel bad to not watch your video, they will feel good if they do watch your video. So, how do we do an anti-hook? So, I want you guys to
130:30
Speaker A
remember this story line again, right? So, we're going to start off here at the anti-hook or the ah. When we're trying to do an anti-hook, we want to basically say something like going straight into the video. For example, if we're doing a
130:45
Speaker A
ranking video on the cutest dogs, instead of saying something like, "You won't believe the craziest dog moments," we could just start off with saying, "The dog accidentally ran into the door." Right? This is jumping straight into it rather than trying to give
130:58
Speaker A
context. And a good example of this is Zach Dilms. Now, Zach Dilms is pulling roughly two billion views per month on one channel right now, you know, and he is doing really good on Instagram, Tik Tok, and YouTube. Now, I'm pulling
131:12
Speaker A
around 1.5 billion views over 36 channels. So, Zach Films is absolutely killing it right now for one single channel, but I'm going to give you an example of how he uses anti-hooks to keep the viewer actually engaged with
131:22
Speaker A
the actual video itself. Now, this video here is talking about a guy putting a shot collar on a dog. And normally, if you were using a hook, you could say something like, "You won't believe what happened when you put this shot collar
131:32
Speaker A
on this dog." But look what Zach does here. He strapped the shot collar around her neck.
131:38
Speaker A
Do you see the slight difference? Instead of saying you won't believe what happened when this guy did this, he just went straight into he did this. Right?
131:46
Speaker A
So when we say he did this, people immediately have the first reaction of feeling like they're left out. And human psychology is if you feel like you don't know what's going on, you try to figure out what's going on, especially in
131:56
Speaker A
social scenarios. And social media is a social scenario, right? So this is why not giving context is a very very important skill to learn because if you not or if you don't give context when you don't give context people search and
132:11
Speaker A
when people search for information they stay on your video longer and then your swipe ratio SW increases exponentially and then we get that 81.1% swipe ratio that we're trying to achieve. So now that I've kind of explained hooks and
132:24
Speaker A
anti-hooks, I want you guys to do an exercise for me real quick. go to your actual analytics of your channel, see your most viewed video, and then go to the engagement and see the swipe ratio.
132:32
Speaker A
Now, if the swipe ratio is not 81.1%, the views may be not that good. Now, if you have a video like this that has 80.3% swipe ratio and has the views, that's like maybe still pretty good.
132:46
Speaker A
This is why using engagement farms actually gives you more views than just using hooks, right? So this video here, I'm not going to show the actual video itself because I don't want to leak the channel, but it is a ranking video,
132:58
Speaker A
right? So this video here is a ranking video on something very very specific that is very very broad at the same time. It is a specific specific action that has a very very broad audience. The ideation of your video is very
133:10
Speaker A
important. So make sure when you are trying to think of the actual idea behind your video itself, think about hey would enough people care to actually watch this for them to actually be engaged, right? Because if the idea of
133:22
Speaker A
your video is too niche, people will not care, right? So, for example, if you're ranking the best uh you know, Corvettes, there's a lot of people in the world who just don't care about Corvettes. So, if you make you know best Corvette videos,
133:38
Speaker A
then you know people who don't care about Corvettes, people don't care about cars are just going to scroll away. But if you say bets best sports cars, that is going to be a much wider ideation.
133:48
Speaker A
Now you're talking about cars. Everyone has driven in a car before. Now people actually care about this. And then you can go into actually ranking different, you know, cars rather than different Corvettes, right? It's a small difference, but that small difference
134:00
Speaker A
gives you a much wider selection of people who will actually watch your video. So think about the idea behind your video before you actually do it.
134:08
Speaker A
Now, I want you guys to do an exercise real quick. Go to your channel right now and think how you can try to implement anti-hooks to your videos if you're not ready. Antihooks are better than hooks in my personal opinion. So, use
134:20
Speaker A
antihooks to your advantage. Think about how you can use anti-hooks for your channel to actually increase your views and increase your swipe ratio. For example, if you're doing Roblox rants, think about how you can not give context and still have people to watch. If
134:32
Speaker A
you're doing ranking, maybe think about how you can not give context and do maybe do the clip selection better.
134:37
Speaker A
Maybe start the clip at a certain point better and see how you can engage with your viewers further. If you're doing Roblox content, see how you can engage with them further by instead of trying to give context of what's going to
134:46
Speaker A
happen, just start what's going to happen already. You know, there's so many ways to do it. So, if you're making content in general, anti-hooks is a very, very powerful weapon you can use to actually increase your swipe ratio
134:57
Speaker A
and then overall get more views. And I think that's pretty much everything for this video. I mean, we went over hooks, anti-hooks, and then overall just how to increase your swipe ratio. You do want to be aiming for this 81.1%
135:08
Speaker A
because the 81.1% is the ideal ratio. So if you guys look at your overall swipe ratio of your channel if your swipe ratio is not above 81.1%, you guys are doing something wrong and you need to improve your hooks. So take
135:21
Speaker A
a look at this video again if you guys are in the future encountering this problem with another one of your channels and try to figure out how to actually fix your hooks. Also, another tip as well, guys, when you upload your
135:32
Speaker A
videos, your swipe ratio is always going to be lower because YouTube is finding your demographic and finding your audience. As your video views go up, your swipe ratio go up because YouTube is finding the actual audience for your
135:42
Speaker A
niche. So, expect the lower swipe ratio when you upload it. Do not freak out if the first day of your video has a 70% swipe ratio because as it gets pushed to the algorithm, this swipe ratio will go
135:51
Speaker A
up over time. I'm sure a lot of you guys who are a little more experienced have noticed this as well. Um, you know, when you upload your videos, sub ratio sucks.
135:57
Speaker A
gets pushed to the audience and then you have better swipe ratios. So, how are we getting these good swipe ratios to actually, you know, get pushed to the algorithm and then overall just end up making money because, you know, we're
136:06
Speaker A
getting good hooks, right? So, in this video, I want to explain everything you need to do to have a good hook, everything you're probably doing wrong to avoid doing so you don't have any bad hooks and just, you know, overall
136:16
Speaker A
improvements and how you can have better hooks in your videos. So, the first thing you guys have to understand when you're making hooks is identifying what type of hook do you want to make, right?
136:25
Speaker A
because there's hooks that kind of ease us into the video and then there's other hooks that really just drastically just push us into a scenario, right? So, there's really really two main hooks people use, which is, you know, a hook
136:37
Speaker A
and an anti-hook, right? So, what's the difference? The difference is context. So, when you're watching a video, for example, like let's say you watch a short on Mr. Beast. We'll look at Mr.
136:46
Speaker A
Beast as an example of this right now. This is how you open a $100,000 car door. You can see right here, he doesn't say in this video we're going to be explaining how to open a $100,000 car door. He just does it, right? So, this
136:58
Speaker A
is actually an anti-hook because he's not really saying what's going to happen. He just does it. And that's the big difference. So, when you guys are trying to do a hook versus anti-hook, the main thing you need to understand is
137:09
Speaker A
a hook is something that you give context to. For example, like in this video, we're going to be opening the most expensive car doors versus this is a 100,000 car door and opens it. That small difference in wording makes a big
137:21
Speaker A
change in actually how your viewer perceive your video and also how long they stay in your swipe ratio overall.
137:27
Speaker A
Right? So let's take a look at hooks and anti-hooks in more detail because if you guys apply the knowledge that I'm going to give in this video, which is knowledge I'm giving to a lot of my students and also to the 30 different
137:38
Speaker A
channels that we run as well, you will see a big difference in your views. So pay attention to this very carefully.
137:42
Speaker A
Right? So what exactly do we use hooks for? Right? Because when we're doing a hook, we're giving context. So when do we need to actually give context in a video and when is it necessary and when is it not necessary? Right? So for
137:55
Speaker A
example, let's say we're doing a video on a very specific animal. All right? A very specific animal. For example, let's say it's like a I don't know like a a camouflaging poisonous frog, right? If we're making a video on a camouflaging
138:08
Speaker A
poisonous frog, we got to give a little bit of context, right? We were in the Amazon rainforest, right? or like this is the most deadly animal in the animal rainforest, right? Because if we say something like that, it's going to give
138:20
Speaker A
us a little bit of context to prepare us for the poisonous frog, right? So, it's kind of more for leading us and easing us into the video. Now, is this beneficial for YouTube shorts in this day and age? Right? Not really. Right?
138:34
Speaker A
We don't really want to ease people into the video because it takes too long. And when it takes too long, what happens is people leave, right? Some other ways to do uh context is giving commentary.
138:44
Speaker A
Right? This is kind of the opposite way of easing. It's more of just kind of throwing you straight into a situation, but it's not the same as throwing yourself into context for antihooks, which I'm going to explain in a second.
138:54
Speaker A
Right? So, when you're doing something like commentary, for example, let's say we're doing cop commentary. You won't believe what happened when this biker flew off his bike and the cop caught him on his windshield. Right? That is a
139:05
Speaker A
context. But I believe it is necessary to give that context because sometimes we need to have commentary to actually have the content be reformative so we can save the monetization program because you guys know YouTube sometimes demonetizes your account if you do not
139:18
Speaker A
have reformative content. So it's pretty crucial that you give commentary depending on the niche right if it's a very uh popular niche with a lot of reuse clips you have to add commentary recommended in the beginning because it
139:31
Speaker A
adds personality. All right. So this is why it's very important to have context and this is when you use hooks. Right?
139:37
Speaker A
So usually niches that you know are really popular, you need to add some type of commentary or you need to add personality driven things. Right? Now when do we use anti-hooks? Because an anti-hook is a little bit different than
139:51
Speaker A
a hook because we're basically throwing the viewer into a context without really telling them what's going on. And a really good example of this is Zach Dilms. So here's a video from Zach Films. So, he uploaded this 5 hours ago.
140:03
Speaker A
And you can see he used an anti-hook here because if we watch the video, look what happens.
140:07
Speaker A
In capture the flag, one team is facing one direction, right? Immediately in capture the flag, one team is facing one direction. He didn't say, you know, for example, the title, how to trick the other team and capture the flag. He didn't start the
140:19
Speaker A
video off like that. This is how you trick the team and capture the flag. We don't start it because guess what?
140:25
Speaker A
That's giving context. And all of a sudden, guess what? That's a hook, not an anti-hook, right? This is an anti-hook. This is why he has three million views in the past five hours.
140:34
Speaker A
And by the way, this is going to be an outlier video because if you actually look at his videos, like for example, three million in 7 hours, 1.1 million in 9 hours. So this video is probably going to perform better cuz videos from a day
140:46
Speaker A
ago are honestly almost around the same amount of views as this, right? So this is kind of an idea of how you can use anti-hooks. Now, when exactly do we use them for each individual niche? Let's say we're doing the cop niche again
140:57
Speaker A
because we talked about that earlier, right? If we're doing the cop niche and for example, I don't know, let's say there's a car accident, right? If a car accident, you know, is very visually appealing, um, you know, not like we
141:08
Speaker A
actually like it, but for the viewers, it's going to really engage them, right? So, if we see a car accident, if there's lots of visual stuff going on, we can do an anti-hook because the visual alone guides them. Now, let's say we want to
141:19
Speaker A
do uh commentary on top of our anti-hook. How do we exactly do this? Right? All right. So, if we're trying to do commentary on our anti-hook, we have to do something like throwing the context already, right? For example, um
141:33
Speaker A
you know, this Karen was surprised when she got hit by a car, right? Something like that. It doesn't say you won't believe what happened when this car Karen got hit by a car. It's like boom, car got hit. The Karen was walking down
141:42
Speaker A
the street, then she got hit by the car. Another good example of this is if you're doing commentary just in general over general clips, right? For example, instead of saying you won't believe what happened when or no one would believe
141:53
Speaker A
when this happened, you can just throw straight into it, right? The girl was ice skating and then fell down, right?
141:58
Speaker A
State exactly what's going on. State the actual visual stuff. Just describe it, right? The man was making a video on YouTube short hooks, right? Boom. You're hooked into the video. So, that's how kind of how you do anti-hooks. You
142:09
Speaker A
basically don't give the context and you throw them into the story, right? And what's great about this is doing anti-hooks also opens this thing called an open loop, right? Because what happens when you throw someone into a story, for example, let's say a story is
142:28
Speaker A
a circle where it comes full circle at the very end where in the beginning we hook, right? So H for hook and at the very end we have a conclusion where we give context or we get to say P for
142:37
Speaker A
payoff, right? And then it starts here and ends here, right? So, as the the story goes along, right, we're doing the story, doing the story, doing the story.
142:45
Speaker A
Let's say we start the story like right here at this point in the video. What happens is the viewer basically has to use their mind to fill in this information that has been lost and they watch the entire video all the way
142:59
Speaker A
through and it gives us a really good retention just to figure out what happened in the very beginning. Also, people use this thing called subtle foreshadowing, right? For example, like the cop commentary video again, right?
143:10
Speaker A
If we start off the video with a car crash, basically someone got in a car accident and then you basically explain what happened in the video and then show the car crash at the very end. Or maybe you don't even show at the end. You use
143:20
Speaker A
the beginning of the video as the end, right? So you basically loop it. And this is kind of what I mean by this demonstration I'm showing right now.
143:27
Speaker A
Right? So there's all types of ways to hook people into the video. It's not just I'm going to make a hook. I'm going to copy and paste chat GBT script and put it in. Right? because content creation and marketing just in general
143:38
Speaker A
because I'm not just a YouTube shorts guy, right? We're getting billions of views a month. Uh in January we got 1.3 billion views. Uh last month we got 800 million views across all of our channels. The reason why it dropped a
143:48
Speaker A
little bit is because we had six of our channels demonetized. We still have 30 channels that we're running right now, right? But the point of the matter is right, we know how to run these. And the same thing applies for marketing as
143:59
Speaker A
well. I used to do drop shipping, man. Right? And when I used to do drop shipping, I was marketing for all these type of products. Sometimes the best way to market the product is not selling it.
144:06
Speaker A
It's just stating what it does, right? It's a beauty product. Just say like this is exactly what happened when I put this on for 30 days. Look, it's cleaner now. It's like that's so much better than saying, "You won't believe what
144:16
Speaker A
happened when I use this product. I'm going to try it for 30 days. Let's see what happens." Like the viewer doesn't care, right? They can already tell when something is like, "Okay, this person's BSing me." And they scroll to the next
144:25
Speaker A
video, right? So, it's very important to understand viewer psychology, understanding open loops, understanding the difference between hooks and anti-hooks. So, this video is currently at 145 million views in the past 20ish days. And the swipe ratio on this video
144:38
Speaker A
is pretty insane. We have an average view duration of 33 seconds, but the swipe ratio is 85.7%.
144:46
Speaker A
That is insane. That's almost 86%. And you know what's even more crazy on this channel, just in general, the swipe ratio of this channel is around 81% in total right now. So, if we just go to content and then we go to shorts, we
145:03
Speaker A
scroll down, we're at 81% average swipe ratio right now for this channel. Um, so, you know, swipe ratio is a very important metric because it helps you understand what's happening the first couple seconds of your video and it
145:15
Speaker A
helps you to determine if your video is actually interesting for people to watch because there's two main important factors with YouTube. There's the retention of a video, the average duration, which is kind of the same thing, and then the swipe ratio. These
145:28
Speaker A
are the two main metrics you need to focus on when you're always looking at a short form video. It's not even just YouTube. It's also Tik Tok and Instagram as well, but we're going to be focusing on YouTube today. Instagram is going to
145:38
Speaker A
be for later in this course. Also, today, I think it's today's day 13 of the boot camp for view maximizing. If you guys haven't seen the rest of the boot camp, I recommend just going to the channel, looking at playlists. We're on
145:49
Speaker A
day 13 of the boot camp right now. We're uploading every single day um just because I'm just spitting so much game.
145:54
Speaker A
I've generated over a billion views in the past month and 25 billion views in my lifetime of content creation. So, I'm pulling pretty good numbers and making a lot of good money right now just from YouTube automation alone. And there's
146:05
Speaker A
also brand deals and other stuff I'm working with. But anyways, let's talk about swipe ratio. So, for the main remaining of this video, I'm going to use SW swipe ratio because I don't want to write um swipe ratio every time. So,
146:15
Speaker A
SW stands for swipe ratio. So, I've gone over this in a couple other videos, but S SW plus R, which is retention, is equal to or S SW plus R, you can also say average view duration as well. ABD
146:27
Speaker A
is going to be equal to a X out of a 100 video. And what X out of 100 means, it means how likely you are to actually go viral with the said, you know, video you're looking at. So, you know,
146:37
Speaker A
whatever numbers these two are, you add them up and then you do some math and you're going to say, okay, let's say it's 100 of 100. Well, this video is most likely going to go viral. So let's talk about swipe ratio first because
146:47
Speaker A
this variable is very important. So swipe ratio is determined by the first 3 seconds of a video. Um you know when you are watching a YouTube short the first 3 seconds if you swipe away you decrease your swipe ratio. If you keep watching
147:00
Speaker A
you increase your swipe ratio. So let's say you have a 100 people who are watching a YouTube short. And if 100 people, 30 of these people actually stay after the 3 second mark, then that means that we're going to have a 30%
147:16
Speaker A
swipe ratio or just 30%. So this is how swipe ratio is determined and swipe ratio is going to um help you kind of increase your overall reach over time because the more swipe ratio you get, the more people YouTube's going to test
147:31
Speaker A
your audience with to see if it's going to stay that way. So, I've actually had another question about this too about like how come my swipe ratio is so bad when I upload a video. And that's because YouTube uses metadata to
147:42
Speaker A
actually showcase your content to people. So, when you upload a YouTube short, right, let's say you upload a YouTube short and in the first 3 hours you see your swipe ratio is like around maybe 45%. And you're like, "Oh my gosh,
147:55
Speaker A
my swipe ratio is so bad." Because 45% is a very bad swipe ratio, right? Well, this actually isn't really true because in the first 3 hours of your video, what YouTube is doing is they're taking metadata from a ton of different niches,
148:06
Speaker A
a ton of different audiences, and they're testing your video. So, how YouTube works, including, you know, every single account on YouTube is it's categorized into a metadata field. So, let's say you watch a lot of YouTube videos about how to grow on YouTube. You
148:20
Speaker A
are in a metadata and your metadata for your channel is e-commerce growth, YouTube automation. It's going to be view maximizing, which is why you probably saw this video. If you saw this video, you probably want to be a
148:31
Speaker A
YouTuber. You probably want to just make content or you probably want to make money online, right? You're in that metadata field for YouTube, which is why you saw this video. And it's the same thing is for every other channel. There
148:42
Speaker A
is over billions of accounts on YouTube and each one of them has a different metadata. So, what YouTube does when you post a short is it goes and tests all these YouTube metadatas for all these different accounts. So let's say it'll
148:55
Speaker A
show your account to 3,000 people and of those 3,000 people all of those people will have different metadatas, right? So it'll show people in the pottery niche, in the YouTube automation niche, in the Roblox niche, in the cars niche and it
149:07
Speaker A
will show your video to a lot of people. So what will happen is YouTube will see that, hey, for some of these metadata fields, your swipe ratio is increasing and for some of these metadata fields, your swipe ratio is decreasing. For
149:20
Speaker A
example, if you made a car short and YouTube sees a lot of people in the car metadata field are increasing your swipe ratio, what they're going to do is they're going to push your video to more car people if you made a car short,
149:31
Speaker A
right? And then you're going to notice that maybe, you know, after the, you know, this was 3 hours here. Let's mark this out. This is the 3hour mark. Um, and then after three hours, let's say we're in the six-h hour mark now, and
149:44
Speaker A
YouTube is pushing your contents to more people in the car niche, you're going to notice that your swipe ratio may increase to 65%. And 65% isn't really, you know, it's still pretty bad if we're going to be honest, but this is 6 hours.
149:57
Speaker A
All right, a lot of you guys are impatient when it comes to uploading shorts. It's going to take a little bit of time. All right, you're not going to go viral right away. I see people, someone asked me the other day, "Hey,
150:06
Speaker A
Devin, I saw this guy. He uploaded his first short and got 10 million views.
150:09
Speaker A
How come I can't do that? Well, one of, first of all, that wasn't his first short because usually YouTube will, you know, do a test phase first. And what they'll do is they'll push a lot of videos out. And, you know, if you see a
150:20
Speaker A
video that, you know, their first video got 10 million views, it's probably because they privated their other videos beforehand to make it look that way. So, usually, you know, that that's an outlier. You don't want to, you know, be
150:29
Speaker A
these outliers. You want to stick to the plan because the plan is guaranteed to work, which is what I teach in the course of this boot camp, right? So after the first six hours, we're going to see our swipe ratios increase and now
150:39
Speaker A
you're pushing to a lot of car people in the car niche, right? So now what'll happen after that is it'll push the another um so six 18 hours. So the next 18 hours, which is the first 24 hours of
150:50
Speaker A
the actual short, it's going to push to more people in the carnage and maybe you'll have a 70% to you know 85% swipe ratio. And this is where you it'll either flatline or it'll keep pushing.
150:59
Speaker A
And a lot of you guys wonder, oh, why am I stuck in 30k view jail, which is what a lot of you guys are stuck in right now or 10k view jail. But you don't look at your swipe ratio and say, huh, my swipe
151:09
Speaker A
ratio is around 70%, maybe I should increase it to like 85% consistently. And then maybe if I increase it 85%, then I won't be stuck in view anymore.
151:19
Speaker A
So yeah, any people get stuck between 70 to 75% in this area. If you're getting anywhere in this range and you're stuck in a view gel, this is most likely why.
151:27
Speaker A
If you are getting more swipe ratio than this, but you are still stuck in 30k view jail, it is most likely because your average view duration is too low, so make longer videos or your niche is just too small and you're not going to
151:39
Speaker A
get a wider enough reach. Those are the two main things. But anyways, let's say you do actually increase yourself to an 85% swipe ratio like the channel I just showed you earlier. Um, what's going to happen is YouTube's going to basically
151:50
Speaker A
say that, hey, out of every single 100 people, 85% or 80 people are actually staying. 85% of people staying and YouTube will see this as exponential growth. So they'll, you know, they'll start pushing it to a thousand people
152:02
Speaker A
and then they'll push it to, you know, 10,000 people and then they'll push it to um, you know, 100,000 people and, you know, within the span of a couple days.
152:11
Speaker A
Uh, you'll notice that your your shorts like already at 85,000 views, you know, and I literally did this on a new channel recently. I I literally scaled this thing to like 125,000 views within a couple days of posting because the
152:22
Speaker A
swipe ratio and average view duration was like 40 seconds. swipe ratio was like 85% on the video, you know, so of course it's going to get views really quickly. And then of course, you know, if we're seeing these views consistently
152:33
Speaker A
going up over a long period of time, we're going to have these things we talked about earlier, test and rebalances. We're going to have a test rebalance test rebalance test rebalance, test rebalance. And you're going to notice that your shorts are
152:42
Speaker A
going to get a high and then get a lower low and then a lower high and then a lower wait and then a higher high and then a higher low, a higher high and then a higher low. And it's going to
152:51
Speaker A
consistently keep going up. And you'll notice if you look at your YouTube graph and you've noticed that, hey, I'm getting more views this month, go over the past 30 days. And look at this. Of course, it may not look exactly like
153:00
Speaker A
this, but it may. And you're going to see you're going to have higher highs every single time. And even though your lows may drop, people get scared at this first low and you see a dip and you're like, "Oh my gosh, my video is not
153:11
Speaker A
getting as much views." Well, that's not true because you're actually getting higher lows. Your your content, your baseline every single time, you're getting higher lows. And this indicates to YouTube that, hey, they trust you.
153:24
Speaker A
And you're going to notice every single time you get a higher high and a higher low, your average view per day is going to increase. So you're going to go from 10K average views per day to 100K average views per day if you
153:35
Speaker A
consistently are posting over a long enough period of time. Also, your swipe ratio will increase over time once you build a repertoire and audience as well.
153:44
Speaker A
So, if you were wondering, hey, my I'm getting 85% swipe ratio, but you know, I'm not really having that much casual viewers, then maybe you should take a look at your new casual and regular viewers. And here, I'm going to show you
153:56
Speaker A
the analytic now. So, if you go to my YouTube here, I think if we go to audience, let me scroll down. Here it is right here. Look at the watch behavior, right? So, we're going to see three different categories. New viewers,
154:07
Speaker A
casual viewers, and regular viewers. So, what we want, our goal here on YouTube is to get our casual viewers to be above 50%. If we can get our casual viewers to above 50%. While growing, while growing, keep that in mind, while growing. Then
154:20
Speaker A
what you're going to do is you're going to have consistent revenue streams because this indicates to YouTube that, hey, these guys are consistently pulling really good views right now and they're making good money. So, what we're going to do is we're going to push them out
154:32
Speaker A
further because we trust them. Their trust score is increased and because their YouTube trust score is increased, they're getting good casual viewers.
154:38
Speaker A
their average view duration is high and their swipe ratio is good. We're going to push your video out to more people and give them more views and in turn give them more money. We're going to be talking about basically how to amplify
154:47
Speaker A
emotion in more detail and also how you guys can be utilizing your own type of content to be able to amplify in all types of ways, right? Because emotion is really really good to amplify emotion because there's three ways to
155:00
Speaker A
communicate to you know a viewer exactly what's going on on your video, right? There is one visual, right? something that's showing up on the screen. Two, audible, something they can hear. And three, emotional, something they can feel. These are the three ways we can
155:14
Speaker A
communicate to a viewer what exactly is going on on our videos so we can actually get pushed to the algorithm.
155:20
Speaker A
Right? So, first of all, how many of you guys in this call right now, you can just type in the chat right now, either do ranking, commentary, or um I should just rank or commentary.
155:31
Speaker A
Just, you know, you guys do ranking or commentary. Either one. How many you guys either do ranking or commentary?
155:36
Speaker A
That's a lot of people. Okay. All right. So, if you guys want to amplify the amount of views you're getting on your videos, I'm sure you guys are probably have already touched into visual and audible um storytelling, right? And the
155:53
Speaker A
main way you guys do this is through editing, right? Because what's the purp purpose of editing, guys? The purpose of editing is what? It's to amplify the emotion of the video and to make it more watchable, right? So, if you want to
156:04
Speaker A
amplify the emotion and um make it more watchable, you need to also amplify the actual emotion they're feeling as well.
156:11
Speaker A
Right? So, I'm going to talk about ranking first, then I'll talk about commentary after. Right? So, if you guys are making ranking videos, where do you usually get your clips from? You usually get it from other people. You look at
156:21
Speaker A
your competitors, see what they're doing, and you use similar clips and try to make some type of similar video, right? But something you guys don't realize is a ranking video in itself is really just let's say you're doing like
156:33
Speaker A
seven videos in a ranking video. It's just seven of other people's videos inside your video, right? And this is why emotion is very very important.
156:42
Speaker A
Okay? So, when you guys are trying to amplify emotion, you need to make sure you're doing it one video at a time. Cuz when we're trying to do visual and audible storytelling, it's a little bit difficult when we are going through
156:52
Speaker A
seven different videos. Cuz it's seven different talking points we're squeezing into like a 32 second video. You that's pretty that's pretty hard to to manage and make it more emotional. But there is a way to do clip selection where we can
157:04
Speaker A
make this visual and audible storytelling emotional as well. And this is through understanding the exact emotion that each clip faces. Right? So, let's say we are doing let's say let's say we're doing trick shots, right?
157:16
Speaker A
Let's say we're doing trick shots. If we're doing best trick shot moments, okay, so if we're doing best trickshot moments in a ranking video, what we need to do is we need to actually identify the seven videos we're going to use
157:26
Speaker A
first. After we identify those seven videos, we also need to identify the emotions each video makes you feel. So, let's say someone does like a water bottle flip video, right? And he he does it it lands and then he does another one
157:37
Speaker A
and it lands on the cap. So, it's like boom boom. It looks like an hourglass.
157:39
Speaker A
Okay, that what you would say is shock. All right. Now, let's say the next clip, this guy's trying to do a water bottle flip or maybe he's doing like some basketball trick shot and a guy gets hit in the face. Instead of shock, that's
157:49
Speaker A
more of like I don't know. I guess the first one's more cool. The second one is more shock. And then let's say the third one, a guy tries to do some of a trick shot and he fails, right? You could say
157:57
Speaker A
that's a sad clip. So, you have to go through and identify each emotion that each clip is making you feel. So, you can actually um sort these. And I'll explain, you know, what I mean by sort them in a second. So, first of all, how
158:09
Speaker A
many of you guys kind of understand what I'm saying here about identifying the emotion? Does that make sense so far?
158:13
Speaker A
You need to be able to identify the emotion of each clip. You got it, guys?
158:16
Speaker A
All right, cool. All right. The next step you need to do after you identify the emotion of each clip is sort them to see what what clip you need to put first, what clip you need to put second,
158:26
Speaker A
fourth, fifth, seventh, etc. Right? If you guys are sorting the correct clips, you can build an emotional storytelling by just sorting the clips. Because if you identify the first clip is sad, the second clip is happy, and the third clip
158:38
Speaker A
is, I don't know, angry, then you should put them in order. And a lot of you guys make the mistake of picking seven happy clips and making a happy video, right?
158:48
Speaker A
That's boring, guys. YouTube doesn't care about that, right? YouTube wants to see um a roller coaster of emotions. They want to see ups and downs, right? If it's only going up, the viewer is just going to scroll away because they're
159:00
Speaker A
bored. The reason why short form is so overpowered is because we can get a lot of views in a very short period of time and make a lot of money. It's really a get-richqu business, right? You can get
159:11
Speaker A
money. For example, Adam, he's in our program, bro. This guy got monetized in three days and he made like 16 or maybe 12 $12,000 in like the first month of the program. And bro, this guy is living in Thailand right now. He went on a
159:23
Speaker A
vacation in Thailand a month after doing the program, right? So that's why it's so easy to scale these shorts, right?
159:32
Speaker A
Because if you understand how to use all three of these, either visual, audible, or emotional storytelling, you can easily scale it up. Now, when you guys are actually making these videos, the next step after you actually understand the um understand the emotion of each
159:47
Speaker A
clip is choosing which clip you actually need to sort. Right? So, I actually learned this originally when I actually did I show speed clipping like a couple years ago, right? So, I would do these I should speak clipping. It was like back
159:58
Speaker A
when he was like streaming and he was uh playing like Fortnite and stuff and it was different times back then. But I noticed that like these streamers, they would say like chat chat chat a lot, right? If he's saying this like chat, do
160:09
Speaker A
you think this is funny? What do you guys think chat? Because streamers are trying to just always engage with their their audience, right? So, they're talking directly to the camera. And when you actually look at their speech pattern, right? when they're saying chat
160:19
Speaker A
chat a lot, if you actually clipped it and put it inside a short, if the streamer said chat more than two times, the retention would dip. And I noticed this across so many different channels I was running, retention would dip every
160:30
Speaker A
single time there was something that repeated. And then I noticed this further if I did similar ranking videos.
160:36
Speaker A
If I was doing some type of commentary and I used the same visual on the screen twice, retention dipped because the second that you have some type of repeated content in your video, you will see a different retention. This applies
160:50
Speaker A
to a visual audio and also emotional storytelling. So if you have something that happens twice like a happy clip and then another happy clip, they're more likely to scroll away in that time period. The same thing applies as well
161:04
Speaker A
when you are also doing visual, right? Right? If you use if you use the same visual clip twice, they're more likely to scroll away. If you use an audio, they're less likely to scroll away, but they still may, right? For example, if
161:14
Speaker A
you use a vine and boom found sound effect too many times, they will probably scroll away. Now, there are exceptions to this. Like, for example, ranking if you amplify the clip with the motion, which we're going to get to in a
161:23
Speaker A
second. Before I continue, does that make sense, guys? Is it okay to rage me?
161:26
Speaker A
Of course it is. Does that make sense so far, guys? Does that make sense?
161:34
Speaker A
Awesome. Okay. So the next thing that you guys need to understand when we were actually making these videos, right? So we got understanding the emotion of each clip, understanding why we need to do it. Now actually choosing the clip
161:48
Speaker A
selection itself. Now I just had a call with inner circle and I had a similar call to this right here. But I want to kind of explain one of the questions that they asked and they were like, "Hey, so let's say we identified the
161:58
Speaker A
clip. Which clip should we do first?" Right? Which clip should we do first? So, you guys should use some type of either emotional clip with tension or some type of shock factor clip. And you need to do it very quickly, right?
162:11
Speaker A
Emotional um engagement with shock or tension. That's usually the first two clips you should use. Sadness is okay.
162:19
Speaker A
Angry is better. Happiness is not okay. Right? For for actually the clip selection, guys, be happy. I'm not saying I'm saying the clip selection.
162:26
Speaker A
Don't use happy in the very beginning of the clip. But you should do either way.
162:30
Speaker A
Do the shock retention. Right? Those are the two main clips you should start off when you are starting.
162:36
Speaker A
Okay, now that's pretty much everything I wanted to go over here, but I also want to go over amplifying the emotion as well, right? Because everyone here probably edits their own videos unless they have like an editor. And even if
162:48
Speaker A
you have an editor, you need to communicate what you want the edit the videos to be edited by, right? So, if you guys are editing your videos, which I'm sure everyone here is, you need to be also using the visual and audio to
162:58
Speaker A
enhance your overall video. So, let's say we have a video of like a sad dog, right? If we want to amplify it further, we can add maybe a little bit of sad music. Maybe we can add a whimper sound
163:09
Speaker A
effect to the, you know, the video to make it sound like the dog is maybe whimpering or something like that. And then lastly, we can put some type of crying emoji, some type of like asterisk, um, looks down, right, because
163:18
Speaker A
he's sad. The point of editing these videos, right, is to be able to actually amplify the emotion, which also gets people to watch for it. All right, other than that though, I think it's pretty much everything I want to talk about
163:31
Speaker A
today, guys. Does anyone have any questions from that? It's a real quick call. I really just wanted to ping you guys and just let you guys know about this because in my student calls, I went over this a lot of times today. So, I
163:40
Speaker A
just wanted to give you guys this tip. Other than that, though, I recorded this by the way. I can upload this to YouTube as well if you guys want me to.
163:50
Speaker A
All right, I'll upload this to YouTube. Any last questions? Last questions, guys, before I got to wrap this thing up.
163:57
Speaker A
How to improve hooks with storytelling. You should do anti-hooks. Don't do hooks. A lot of people they make the mistake of trying to do hooks with saying like uh in this video we're doing the top five best I don't know water
164:08
Speaker A
bottle flip moments. Instead you should just go straight into just go straight into it. Don't don't do some type of like intro guys. Look at Zach D. Films as a good example of this. Okay.
164:19
Speaker A
How to comment bait. Don't do call to actions. Don't do call to actions. All right.
164:25
Speaker A
Okay. If you if you do call to actions, it will um ruin your actual people who's going to engage. A lot of you guys uh especially for ranking as well, you guys will like do this thing where at the
164:36
Speaker A
very end you will say like comment what your favorite number was or something like that, right? If you do something like that, it's just more likely than not people people probably won't engage as much, you know? So, if you want
164:46
Speaker A
people to engage, you basically just need to make an interesting clip. Do some type of a shock factor. Shock factor always gets the the best clips.
164:53
Speaker A
Just make sure you're following inside the YouTube guidelines. Yo, speaking of YouTube guidelines, because I actually talked about this a lot today with some students. Do you guys know what the YouTube guidelines are for like videos?
165:02
Speaker A
Because I know you guys probably have read the policy or you probably understand the policy, but like I can go into a little more detail if you want to. So, so you guys don't get terminated or banned. Should I go over it real
165:11
Speaker A
quick? All right. So, there's five things you need to avoid when you're doing YouTube. Like, the first thing is sexual content. Do not make any type of sexual content. You guys, these videos are for little kids, right? YouTube will immediately
165:26
Speaker A
terminate you or they'll take you down, right? And you guys can say, "Okay, well, there's other people doing it." Well, they probably will eventually get banned, right? So, just don't do any type of sexual content. Number two, do
165:36
Speaker A
not do any type of content that someone is injured. I'm talking about a person-toperson injury, right? If someone slaps someone else, don't do it.
165:44
Speaker A
YouTube AI will probably get you um, you know, shadowbanned for that. Cursing is okay.
165:51
Speaker A
Cursing is okay, but not explicit. No slurs. That's number three. No racism. Okay. No racism. Racism also is bad. If there's some bad words, it's okay, right? But in general, like I would I would try to avoid clips with it. But
166:06
Speaker A
there's like, for example, if you guys know that guy who like was always like randomly talking to animals, like he curses sometimes, you know, but it's like it's just it's very casual. It's not like a you know, he's calling
166:16
Speaker A
someone like, you know, a racial slur. All right. Number three is anyone who is dead, right? No people who are dead, no animals that are dead, nothing like that, right? Don't do any type of dead things. Don't pull a Logan Paul. All
166:28
Speaker A
right? Because that's immediately going to get you shadowbanned, obviously, right? And the last one that a lot of people don't think about, it's actually children in danger. So, if you guys are doing some sort of AI videos, especially
166:40
Speaker A
of like animals saving like babies, if you guys are making a video where like there's a kid in danger, like let's say a baby is about to get eaten by a crocodile and a dog saves it, like that
166:52
Speaker A
video can get terminated because YouTube may see it as you're posting a video of like child endangerment and child abuse.
166:59
Speaker A
All right, so yeah, that those are the five things you need to avoid when you guys are making content. Write that down. Again, I'm posting this on YouTube. So, if you're watching this on YouTube, you can write about it. Uh, and
167:10
Speaker A
just like put your in your notes just to make sure you don't accidentally get how we use emotional retention to your advantage in order to actually increase your retention. How to understand what emotional retention is. This is a term
167:20
Speaker A
that I've kind of come up with after uh months of experimenting um with a lot of different channels. And this is actually a new thing that I've learned. So, you guys are actually hearing this for the first time. Um, and also this is
167:30
Speaker A
something I kind of reserved for mostly my students, but I'm going to kind of explain it to you guys in more detail because I just think it's a really cool topic and I think it's going to help a
167:39
Speaker A
lot of you guys with improving your views. And what's improving your views going to do? Make you more money. All right, so let's get into it. So, when we actually look at a retention graph, for example, like this one right here,
167:48
Speaker A
right? We have a 75% retention AVD of 36 of 52. The comment ratio on this video was pretty insane and it got 317 million views. Here, do a quick little reload for you as well. So what exactly um when
168:00
Speaker A
we see something like this right we see this retention graph right here right kind of we have a dip initial dip and then it has a little micro dips and then kind of flattens out and dips again this
168:09
Speaker A
is what a normal attention graph looks like another example is this video right here got 171 million views scroll down here and we actually look at this you have a dip here another dip here and then kind of flattens out keep in mind
168:20
Speaker A
these videos and these niches is ranking in this guy versus that guy these are the niches I'm showing you right now you have a dip here and kind of flat lens out look at This video here has 5
168:28
Speaker A
million views, made $368. We have a completely straight line, right? So, let's let's kind of actually explain this in a little bit more detail. Let's try to understand what these, you know, dips actually mean and also how to understand your retention
168:44
Speaker A
graph to the fullest. Right? But first, I'm going to show you what emotional retention is. So, I want you to imagine we have this graph right here, right?
168:54
Speaker A
And I think in terms of math because I'm a math guy, right? But I think this will make sense for everyone watching this.
168:58
Speaker A
Let's say we have different emotions on our emotional curve, right? Or line, right? So we have like happy and then we have like angry little angry face.
169:09
Speaker A
He's really angry. And then we have like sad, right? And there's lot there's lots of different emotions between these like there's tension and stuff like that as well, but we'll just use as an example.
169:17
Speaker A
And let's say this is zero to 30 seconds, right? Now, let's say the video went from like starting off happy to really sad and then it goes angry and then you go happy and then you go angry again, right? And then the video ends
169:31
Speaker A
off with happy, right? So, we go happy, sad angry happy angry happy right? And this is all going to make sense in a second. I promise you. Just give me a second. So, if we actually look at this
169:45
Speaker A
on a retention graph, right? So, we actually look at the retention graph now. R for retention. Um, if we actually look at the percentage over here of the people who actually are watching and we go to 030, here's what the retention
169:58
Speaker A
graph will usually look like. It'll be a dip and then it'll kind of flatline out like this, right? And you will notice something that when we have a repeating amount of emotions, for example, like we go like this here, it kind of goes like
170:09
Speaker A
this right around the happy right here. Retention may drop a little bit and then you're going to live a little dip and then maybe retention will drop a little bit like here. That's usually what retention graphs usually look like. And
170:18
Speaker A
this is actually this is very healthy by the way, right? But here is how you can utilize emotional retention graphs to your advantage, right? And I'm going to show you how to actually analyze your own videos to understand emotional
170:28
Speaker A
retention in a second. But when you're looking at your emotional retention graph, for example, we have the happy, the angry, and then the sad, 0 to 30.
170:39
Speaker A
Let's say we have another example. Okay, so this is example two. This was example one. This is this is example um two right here. So in example two, you guys are gonna notice something crazy, right?
170:51
Speaker A
So let's say we go from happy to angry to sad to angry to happy to happy again.
171:02
Speaker A
Right? What you will notice when we are actually looking at the retention graph right here, right? 0 to 60 or 30, you're going to look at something like this, right? It's going to have a little dip here and then it's going to be like
171:14
Speaker A
this. And right around our second happy, what's going to happen is we're going to have a massive drop. Okay? And as you can tell here, if we actually look at this right here for this retention graph right here or this emotional retention
171:25
Speaker A
graph where we do a double happy, it drops here. Okay. What does this mean? So basically what I'm trying to explain to you guys is when you repeat emotions on a video, usually what you will notice is you will
171:40
Speaker A
notice a dip in your retention, right? And this happens a lot especially for ranking and I've noticed this because I've dealt with so many different ranking channels that when you are doing ranking if you have an emotional video
171:53
Speaker A
where you're doing like for example let's say you're selecting clips right and it's like angry happy angry on that second happy uh like you know the third clip you will see a dip in retention and this is very important for you guys to
172:06
Speaker A
understand because the way you choose your clips both audibly and visually are very important and you need to learn the skill of identifying the emotions of the videos that you were watching. Okay, so this is the skill I want you guys to
172:18
Speaker A
start mastering and I'm going to explain how to master this skill in a second.
172:21
Speaker A
But you guys need to master the skill of emotional detection, emotional detect. And this is basically going to allow you to be able to identify clips correctly, identify sounds correctly. What do these sounds make you feel? Right? What do these
172:36
Speaker A
sounds do to the viewer's mind? What do these visually and audibly do to make the viewer feel anything? Because guess what? All right, at the end of the day, we're looking at two different metrics on YouTube for short form, right? Swipe
172:49
Speaker A
ratio and average view duration. That's pretty much it. Of course, there's other metrics involve like, you know, your comment ratio, all this yada yada, right? But like the two main metrics are swipe ratio and ABD, right? And really,
173:02
Speaker A
you could do AVD divided by link to video, which is really just retention. That's the main things. Of course, there's other analytics and but they are important, but these are the main driving factors. and if your video gets
173:11
Speaker A
pushed out. This is the main factors of your trust score to get your video pushed out, right? Swipe ratio and retention. So, if we're actually looking at this right here, right, we need to know how to use emotional detection and
173:23
Speaker A
how to use emotional retention to increase our swipe ratio and our average view duration, right? So, let's say we are trying to increase our swipe ratio first, right? If we're trying to increase our swipe swipe ratio first, first we need to identify what types of
173:37
Speaker A
emotions get people to engage. Curiosity you know, anger, some type of um, you know, attention. Those types of emotions make someone engage. What do you think a hook is? A hook is when you get someone curious, right? Uh, that's that's really
173:54
Speaker A
what it is. Or you shock someone into giving you your attention. And attention at a basic level, and we're going to go over this in a second, attention at a basic level is what? Right? Because you can only give attention to one thing at
174:09
Speaker A
a time, right? If you try doing multiple things, it's a little bit hard. When you're scrolling Instagram or YouTube or Tik Tok, you're giving attention to whatever video you're watching, right?
174:18
Speaker A
So attention can only be given to one thing. And your attention changes based off what video you watch, right? So what is scientifically an attention change?
174:29
Speaker A
Well, this is what we call a reaction. And scientifically, guys, what is a reaction? A reaction is again a change in something. For example, if water turns to ice or ice turns to liquid or the air freezes, right? This is all a
174:43
Speaker A
reaction. And there's only one way to get someone to react. You need to change their attention with emotion because the only way to capture emotion or attention is with emotion, which is why I just showed you all those emotional retention
174:59
Speaker A
graphs. If you're watching this far in the video, by the way, congratulations. You're actually learning some serious sauce here. everyone who clicked off.
175:05
Speaker A
Bro, I feel bad for them because this this actual information is just it's insane, bro. The amount of times I've explained this to a student and then they've implemented this and then they've gone from like zero um you know
175:15
Speaker A
to like a million or 1 million to 30 million. It's just absolutely ridiculous. And I have so many student testimonials. You look on the channel like we have lots of like student reviews and stuff like that where you
175:24
Speaker A
guys can see the amount of progress people made. I mean we've taken people from like 0 to $10,000 US a month or from like you know 5 US to 35,000. One of our students is up 100 grand this
175:35
Speaker A
month. Actually, it's 105 if you include their Spotify deal. Um, but I I'll show you guys that maybe toward the end of the video. Just a little tidbit. Um, okay. But let's talk about um how actually emotional retention and
175:47
Speaker A
reactions work, right? So, what is a um reaction? It's a change in something. We're trying to change the emotion.
175:53
Speaker A
Which is why if we go back to our attention graph right here, right? So, we have this attention graph. we have like the happy, the angry, and the sad, right? That's angry, and then happy here, right? Or sad here. Um, if we have
176:06
Speaker A
a 0 to 30, right? If it's different changing of emotions, what's going to happen is we're going to have a retention graph that looks more and more straight. The straighter our retention graph is, the higher our AVD is. The
176:19
Speaker A
higher our AVD is, the better our retention is. And the better our attention is, the more videos we're going to get pushed through the algorithm, the higher our trust score is going to be. And then overall our TS and
176:31
Speaker A
our um and monthly audience is going to increase, which is going to make us more money. Guys, YouTube is not just uploading videos and having good ideas.
176:42
Speaker A
All right? There's a lot of thoughts that goes into YouTube. Trust me, the best creators in the world think in terms of this, right? Um, we've gotten so many views, right, in the past couple of months. I think it's around like six
176:55
Speaker A
billion views. Um, just from all the different channels. I mean, like this video alone is at 317 million. Just grasp that for a second, right? One video. Uh, this video alone is at 171 million. These are two videos, right?
177:09
Speaker A
I'm running 35 channels right now. Now, not every single video is like this. You know, some videos they kind of only have around 50 million. Some videos they go to 45 million. But regardless, right, we still have videos that get pushed out,
177:20
Speaker A
right? So, these are examples, and by the way, these are channels that we're working with, by the way, as well. Um, but these are examples of kind of how you can use emotional retention um to your advantage in order to scale
177:34
Speaker A
channels up. And we teach all of this in our program in more detail. Now, I know I said later in this video, I'm going to explain how to understand emotional detection. And I'm going to give you some examples of this. So, I'm going to
177:43
Speaker A
do that now. I'm going to give you guys some examples of emotional detection and what better way to do it than RankZilla.
177:49
Speaker A
So, this is RankZilla and you'll notice that if you look at rank some of Rankzilla's like best videos, right? For example, this one has 341 million, you'll notice something kind of absurd, right? If you actually look at the most
177:59
Speaker A
popular video and we actually identify each emotion that is played during this entire uh video, you'll notice that each one is different than the last. For example, the first one here, this guy gets hit um or I guess he kind of falls down,
178:13
Speaker A
right? And those vine boom sound effects. That's kind of like shock. Over here, he gets hit. That's more funny, right? This one over here, he kind of like falls and breaks his legs. That's like pain, right? Then you go over here,
178:24
Speaker A
he falls. That's funny again. Now we're going from pain back to funny. This one here, he's flipping around.
178:30
Speaker A
He falls down through it. It's like shock. You weren't expecting that. Last video here, or second last video, astronaut. He launches the kid up.
178:38
Speaker A
That's funny. And this one over here is like Spider-Man and this is like cool, right? So like each one of these emotions are a little bit different. And I'm able to just watch these and identify it because I
178:49
Speaker A
spend basically all day just identifying YouTube videos. But what you guys need to do is you guys need to start watching YouTube videos, not from a perspective of I'm going to consume content for fun and watch it from a sense of okay, I'm
178:59
Speaker A
going to watch these videos and identify every single emotion that happens. And you'll notice the videos that get the most amounts of views on YouTube are videos that have an intense amount of emotions or are videos that have a
179:10
Speaker A
consistent amount of different emotions, right? One or the other. There's no in between. Even like the most popular videos, for example, like Daniel Leella, right? If you guys look at Daniel Leella, he had this video that had like
179:20
Speaker A
1.7 billion views, I think. I think it's 1.7 right now. 1.6 billion views. You'll notice like he's running around here and each time he cleans something up, it's some type of shock factor or funny factor or it's something that's just
179:34
Speaker A
more relatable like, oh, okay, Legos. All right, I'm going to clean this up because my kids have Legos. Relatable.
179:38
Speaker A
You know, you're running around. Okay, I have to clean up the kitchen now. That's more funny because he's like jumping all over the table. Now he's throwing away the trash. It's like everyone's done this at some point. Now he's jumping
179:46
Speaker A
through this. It's shock, right? And every single emotion is just a little bit different than the last one, right?
179:51
Speaker A
This one over here, it's more funny. He just he just blew that over there. Like what's the point? Right? He runs back inside. Now he's cleaning with his shirt again, almost falls, funny, falls again, cartoon style falling, falls a second,
180:03
Speaker A
third time, and then ends video. Right? So you guys need to learn to identify the different type of emotions because then you'll be able to kind of understand this emotional retention graph better. And then you'll be able to
180:13
Speaker A
make better retention graphs, which is going to give you better ABDs. And better ABDs is going to be better for getting better um push to the algorithm, visual storytelling. and in more detail about how I am generating so much views
180:26
Speaker A
per hour right now. I mean, we're actually at a low right now. Early, we were at around a million views an hour.
180:30
Speaker A
So, we're actually in a dip. And this is also day 10, I believe, of the boot camp. I think we're on day 10 today. So, um, if you guys don't know, we're doing a boot camp video every single day. I'm
180:39
Speaker A
just going over all the knowledge I know about YouTube. I've generated over a billion views personally in the past month. 25 billion views over the course of the past seven years with my YouTube and my Instagram and my TikTok, just my
180:50
Speaker A
social media journey in general. and my name is Devon Cat. So, let's get into it. So, let's talk about visual storytelling. Now, what's important to know when you're making content is content needs to be driven through emotions, right? We've gone over this
181:03
Speaker A
multiple times in the boot camp, but I want to go over it again because I think it's a very important thing to drive home. Emotions is a very important thing. And it's important because all humans feel emotions, right? So, when
181:14
Speaker A
I'm thinking about, you know, making a video that's going to get a lot of views, I'm thinking, okay, what emotion am I going to make people feel in order to actually reach the most amount of people? Because if people aren't feeling
181:25
Speaker A
an emotion, what are they going to do? They're going to scroll away. So, you need to make them feel an emotion because that's what makes humans uh unique. And we can express that through many different ways like arts or content
181:34
Speaker A
creation or music or whatever, right? So, when I figure out that, okay, I'm going to make them feel an emotion, the next thing I want to do is figure out how am I going to convey that emotion?
181:43
Speaker A
And I can convey it through two different ways, right? I convey it through music is the first one. And music is great. Music is a great thing you should be focusing on when you are choosing um you know what type of short
181:54
Speaker A
you're going to make. And the second thing is visual storytelling. So I'm just going to put visual because I don't want to I don't want to write all of it.
182:01
Speaker A
Um visual. So I don't even know if I spell visual correctly, guys. I didn't go to college. I make YouTube videos and content creation and I sell software and I do brand deals for a living. Hey, but it's making at least 60k a month. Just
182:14
Speaker A
saying. So, music and visuals. So, how am I actually going to convey emotions through these two different lenses?
182:23
Speaker A
Well, the first thing I'm going to do is tell you guys right now, you do not need to make English content to target people who speak English. You don't need to make Portuguese content to target people who are in Brazil. You don't need to
182:35
Speaker A
make Indian content and people who speak, you know, like that language in order to actually target people in India. You can make videos that are so broad that anyone in the world can watch it. Anyone. I'm not even joking. You
182:49
Speaker A
could get billions of views per video if you did it correctly. So, the first thing I want to say is take off a couple limits that you may have put on yourself. And one limit that a lot of
182:59
Speaker A
people put on themselves is they think, "Oh, I can only make videos in English because I only speak English, or I can only make videos in Spanish because I only speak Spanish." Do not limit yourself by languages because a language
183:13
Speaker A
is just a way to communicate ideas. So what is a language? Right? A language, bro, I I cannot spell for the life of me. Oh my gosh, I cannot spell at all. I'm going to put lang. Sorry, guys. A language is just a way to
183:29
Speaker A
communicate ideas, right? Because if I'm saying, "Hey, that hat is red." That is me thinking in my head, hm, that hat is red. I'm going to tell them through my words that that hat is red. Okay, maybe that kind of makes sense. But a video,
183:44
Speaker A
what you can do with a video is you can showcase visuals and sounds without words.
183:51
Speaker A
And what's amazing about that is people from, you know, people who speak English, Portuguese, Spanish, people who speak, you know, Japanese, they can all watch that same video and understand what it is as long as your visual storytelling and your sound or your
184:05
Speaker A
music just matches up. And you don't even need to use sound. You can purely just do visual storytelling and you can get billions with a B billions of views every single month. Now, I'm going to give you guys a good example of this,
184:18
Speaker A
right? So, if you guys don't know who this guy is, his name is Daniel Labella.
184:22
Speaker A
And what this guy does is he does videos where he runs around, right? He runs around and he basically just uh does funny little skits, right? So, if we look at his most popular video, it has 1.6 billion views. So, this video is him
184:41
Speaker A
just running around. He's scooping up stuff. He's running. And what's awesome about this is basically every single human can run, right? You can watch this and in any language understand what is going on, right? He's not limited himself by language because it's just an
184:54
Speaker A
entertaining thing. And it has 39 million likes. It's at 1.6 billion views. And if you notice, if you look in the comment section of that video, it's going to be people who are speaking all different types of languages because it
185:07
Speaker A
doesn't matter if you speak English to understand what the what's going on in the video, you know. So, you guys need to master the skill of visual storytelling because language should not be an issue when you are making content.
185:19
Speaker A
So, do not limit yourself by language. All right? You should be telling through only visual. And of course, if you're, you know, you put English captions, that's going to enhance it, but you're also going to limit the reach cuz if
185:29
Speaker A
people are seeing English captions and they don't understand English, let's say they speak Japanese, they're just not going to watch the video. You know what I'm saying? So, it's it's a great great example of that. And by the way, he
185:40
Speaker A
probably made, if you guys are wondering, he probably made around $120,000 from this video alone. Just just FYI, by the way, because I I know some people who who told me about the revenue that video made. Um so visual
185:52
Speaker A
storytelling do not limit yourself by language emotions. Now the next thing I would say is once you understand that you can't limit yourself by language you need to understand what type of content you're going to make. So, for example,
186:05
Speaker A
brain rot is pretty universal right now, right? Brain rot, Roblox type of stuff you can pretty much understand in any language. But I see a lot of people doing is when they're making these videos, right, of you know, for example,
186:17
Speaker A
like let's say you're doing Roblox content, they put captions in English, which just why why would you do that?
186:23
Speaker A
There was people all over the world putting, you know, making Roblox videos in all different types of languages. So, if you are going to make a Roblox channel, you might as well just instead of um limiting yourself by English
186:36
Speaker A
captions, just, you know, don't put any captions at all. And, you know, use visual storytelling, use storytelling to actually, you know, caption captivate the audience and then you're going to get more views. I'm sorry if I'm repeating myself in this video, but I
186:50
Speaker A
really need to drive this point home how important it is to actually use visual storytelling because, you know, visual storytelling is there. There's only 1.5 billion people in the world who speak English. All right? And the rest of the
187:01
Speaker A
people speak other languages, you know, and if there's around 8 billion people in the world, you're limiting yourself to only 20% of the world's population.
187:09
Speaker A
That's around 1.5 to two billion people speak English. All right? So, that means there's another 75% of people in the world who do not speak English that can't understand your video. But if you do visual storytelling, you can
187:21
Speaker A
literally get every person in the world, 100% of the people in the world to actually be able to understand and watch your video. All right? That's how important visual storytelling is. So, please use this to your advantage. When
187:34
Speaker A
you're making videos, you don't need to actually use captions. You don't need to have people speaking English. If you're making AI videos, Roblox videos, if you're doing any type of like um any type of uh like Zacti Films type videos,
187:50
Speaker A
sometimes you don't even need to have English or captions or anything. If the visual is good enough, you can get people to just watch. And I'm going to also give another good example of this.
187:59
Speaker A
I don't know if you guys know that um movie that came out called Flow. And it's this movie that um here it is that was actually it got like a a Grammy award for like a bestselling 97% Rotten
188:13
Speaker A
Tomato. It's like I think it's around an hour and something long. And this movie has no words. It is purely audio and visual storytelling. And it's got a a a very very high rating on Rotten Tomato.
188:27
Speaker A
And it shows how far you can go with just using visual storytelling to just captivate audiences. So please, visual storytelling is one of the most important skills you can learn as a content creator. And I've used it personally to gen over 25 billion views
188:44
Speaker A
over my content creation career. I mean, this month alone, I'm at 1.5 billion views across all my channels. And we're just pulling an insane amount of views right now. I mean, if you guys just look at this, I'm running over 37 channels
188:54
Speaker A
and I'm implementing visual storytelling into every one of my channels because it actually helps gain momentum. And I'm going to explain everything on how you can actually use it in this video to your advantage with actual examples because I've seen a lot of people talk
189:06
Speaker A
about how, oh, you know, a lot of gurus, they show analytics, but they don't actually show videos and examples of what to do. So, I'm going to show you guys actual examples today. This video particularly got uh 535 million views
189:18
Speaker A
and I want to break it down in this video. But first of all guys, my name is Devon Cath. I'm a view maximizer. I've been doing content creation for over eight years now and uh you know I just
189:27
Speaker A
want to kind of help you guys out a little bit. This is day 24 of the boot camp for view maximizing. If you haven't watched any other boot camp videos, go ahead and watch the first one first and
189:36
Speaker A
watch all the way through because we are actually loading a crazy amount of results right now for people in our Discord. Anyways, let's get into it. So, the first thing I notice when I look at this video is it's instantly Ronaldo and
189:48
Speaker A
Ronaldo is a very, very famous person. Now, one thing you'll notice about this video is there's really not any words in it. And you're also going to notice that we use a lot of visual and sound hooks rather than any type of speech. So, when
190:03
Speaker A
we are actually doing any type of visual storytelling ever, it doesn't matter if you are making Roblox content or soccer edits or you're doing skull edits or you're doing ranking, it does not matter. When you're using visual storytelling, you want to make sure you
190:16
Speaker A
keep the viewer engaged both visually and audibly. These two go handinand. It's kind of like the ying and yang of content. Um, if you do not use visual and audio capabilities together, then your channel is going to be cooked. You
190:32
Speaker A
need both of these in order to view maximize. And that's how I'm getting close to 1.5 billion views a month.
190:36
Speaker A
Those actually Let's actually watch this video first and then we can actually talk about why I went viral.
190:43
Speaker A
What? So, one thing you'll notice so far is there's only sound. There's no text, right? And all we're doing is just using the camera to showcase what is going on.
190:59
Speaker A
This is amazing because first of all, Ronald is a very famous person and everyone knows who he is. The reason why Ronaldo is so famous is because he is very a very popular football player. Now let's talk about this in detail because
191:11
Speaker A
football is a huge topic we can talk about for visual storytelling. Now when we actually look at football, the first thing we think about is people like Messi or people like Ronaldo. And this is really really great because these
191:23
Speaker A
people you're able to understand who they are without language because language is a very very very awful thing that we have created. If we could actually just implement our knowledge and put it in someone else's brain, knowledge would be so much easier uh
191:40
Speaker A
transmitted and we wouldn't need any type of speech. But because humans are limited by telepathic thoughts, we cannot actually um transfer information through uh our minds. You know what I'm saying? So, we have to use words. But since we have eyes, we're able to
191:59
Speaker A
actually visually see what people have accomplished and actually know who they are. For example, Messi is obviously the best soccer player of all time. Screw all your Ronaldo fans. Uh but everyone knows who these people are, right? So
192:11
Speaker A
it's because everyone knows who these people are. We can visually use storytelling as the focal point of the videos and people who are from India or from Pakistan or from Brazil or from America or from I don't know
192:26
Speaker A
Antarctica, it doesn't really matter where you are, you'll be able to understand what is going on because you know that Messi is the best soccer player. So when you're watching it, you understand that okay, I'm watching the best soccer player in the world right
192:37
Speaker A
now. You know, or if you're watching Ronaldo, you're saying, "Okay, I'm watching the second best soccer player in the world right now." And this kind of helps the viewer kind of watch without knowing any language. Like, I bet you guys, there was only 1.5 billion
192:50
Speaker A
people in the world who speak English and this video got 535 million views. So either one either uh 33% of everyone who speaks English saw this video or two the more likely option which is the actual correct option. People from
193:10
Speaker A
all around the world actually saw this video. If you don't know where I'm getting at, I'll kind of explain it now.
193:15
Speaker A
The reason I'm getting 1.5 billion views a month across all social media platforms is because I'm targeting the world. I'm not targeting niches. When I make videos, I think, can a mom watch this? Can a baby watch this? Can a
193:28
Speaker A
grandpa watch this? Can someone from Pakistan? Can someone from Brazil? Can someone from Australia? Can someone from, you know, America? Can they watch it? Doesn't matter if their gender, doesn't matter what their race is. If they see this video, will they watch it?
193:40
Speaker A
I've actually had the opportunity to talk to Mr. Beast one time in a very big group setting where it was like 100 people. You could ask him a question.
193:47
Speaker A
And I asked him, um, I said, "Jimmy, what would you do if you were to pick a niche? Like, what's the best niche to pick?" and he said, "Pick the world." And I think this was a very very amazing
193:58
Speaker A
example because if you are picking the world, right, you're targeting videos that can basically just reach everyone, then it really doesn't matter what you are uploading because you can watch from any language, any visual, and you will just watch it because it's entertaining.
194:14
Speaker A
Your niche should be everyone, not just people who care about iPhones. It should be everyone. And that is a very very important part I need you to actually nail home. Anyways, let's go back to this video. So, what you notice is when
194:26
Speaker A
we're actually looking at this video, the first hook is Ronaldo is handing off to uh you know, I think this is his wife or his girlfriend and there's a big circle.
194:36
Speaker A
He's giving her a gift. What? This is really, really a big deal because Ronaldo is giving a gift to someone that he cares about. Everyone knows who Ronaldo is. He's giving a gift to someone and he opens it and it's a
194:48
Speaker A
little baby, which means they're probably having a kid. Now, here's a funny moment. Remember, we're not saying, "Oh, look what happened when Ronaldo and his wife did this." We're not saying any of that.
195:00
Speaker A
There's no words. It's just visual storytelling. And because we're using visual storytelling, people are continuing to watch.
195:07
Speaker A
Now, you notice here, we actually do use text. Now, why are we allowed to use text here? The reason why we're allowed to use text in this scenario specifically is because this is the person's name. And because this is the
195:17
Speaker A
person's name, it's okay. So, this entire video is just visual storytelling. You notice there's there's not any words. And that's the why this video got so many views. So, when you guys are actually making your own content, make sure that you guys are
195:41
Speaker A
actually trying to use visual storytelling. I've said this point before, I'm going to say it again, guys.
195:45
Speaker A
If you are using captions in your video, you are limiting yourself to 20% of the world's population. I know that sounds like a lot of people, but that means 80% of the people in the world who don't speak English will not be able to
195:59
Speaker A
understand the video you're uploading. So, don't use captions. If you stop using captions, I promise you, you're going to get more views because more people are able to see your content. Now, for those of you who are arguing, Devin, I don't want to get, you
196:15
Speaker A
know, people from all around the world because my RPM is going to drop. Bro, I'm making almost $40,000 a month from one of my YouTube channels right now on shorts. It's getting close to 600 million views a month right now. And the
196:28
Speaker A
reason I'm able to do that is because I don't use captions. It's a Roblox channel and I don't use captions. And the reason I don't use captions is because there are people in the world from Indonesia, from India, from Asia,
196:42
Speaker A
from the United States, from Africa who don't speak English and they still play the game. So what I do is I visually show them what's going on in the game and use sound effects and I can use reactions and emojis and that's it. And
196:58
Speaker A
because I have the skill of visual storytelling, I can implement it to any content piece and get a mass amount of views. So even though my RPM is 8 cents, which a lot of you guys freak out about
197:10
Speaker A
8 cents, it doesn't matter because I'm getting 600 million views a month. It's like 10% of the world's population, like 5% of the world's population, but still it's a huge portion of the people.
197:24
Speaker A
And because of that, it ends up being around 40k a month. Remember, these are qualified views as well. Remember that. So, please take that into consideration when you're making content. Because if you use this one skill of visual storytelling, you
197:40
Speaker A
actually implement it to your content. You stop using captions and target the world as your niche rather than soccer moms or rather than people who play soccer, rather than people who play Roblox. If you target everyone, doesn't matter because I bet you there are
197:52
Speaker A
people who don't watch Roblox who actually watch my channel because I use incredible visual storytelling. So, anyone who watches it can understand what's going on. It doesn't matter if you play the game, you can watch it and know what's happening. Sorry if I was a
198:05
Speaker A
little aggressive. This is a very important topic and I really want to make sure you guys understand how to actually use this to your advantage. I'm going to explain exactly how you can get a 10 million plus view hour 48 hour mark
198:15
Speaker A
because it's pretty difficult to achieve this. But if you know the right steps and you follow the right instructions to be able to hit this, you can consistently do this over the entire month because a lot of the students
198:25
Speaker A
working with right now kind of hit this point where they want to hit 10 million views in the past 48 hours, but they don't actually get there because they don't know the right instructions. So, in this video, I'm going to explain
198:33
Speaker A
everything you need to know. Also, this is day four of the Vaximizing boot camp.
198:36
Speaker A
Let's get straight into it. And before you guys say this is fake, I'm going to open see more for each of these channels. You can see also it loads here. I can show you if I hover over this is all the views here for every
198:46
Speaker A
single one of these channels just you can get an idea just to make sure you guys know that you know everything we're doing here is real because a lot of people don't think this is possible getting 20 million views in the past 40
198:55
Speaker A
hours. We've had channels get 60 million views in 48 hour marks before and it is very easy once you actually understand the steps. So really I hope this video helps. Let's get straight into it. So the first thing we need to do is set a
199:05
Speaker A
goal of what we actually want to hit. So if our goal here is 10 million views in 48 hours, right? 10 million views in 48 hours, then we need to understand what do we actually need to do to break this
199:17
Speaker A
down. So this is actually 5 million views in 24 hours or this is basically having one viral video every single day, right? So to consistently get viral videos, which is really the key to achieving this 10 million view 48 hour
199:30
Speaker A
mark, you need to understand how to increase your trust score and how to maximize for views. Because a lot of people, they maximize for other metrics like comments or subscribers or they maximize for engagement. That does not get you views because at the end of the
199:42
Speaker A
day, we're paid through one metric. It's the amount of views we generate is the amount of money we make, right? So in this video, I'm explaining more how to actually view maximize your channel rather than maximize for other metrics.
199:52
Speaker A
So, if we go back to this channel here, you can see that at the beginning of this channel when I started working with this student specifically, uh we were at around 1 million views in the first couple days of us working together and
200:03
Speaker A
we scaled it up consistently over time. Now, if you can see what we started doing is we started uploading more and more videos every single day, right? So, when we started uploading more and more videos every single day, you know, uh
200:15
Speaker A
you can't see it here actually because it's here. Let me go the past 90 days and you can see it a little better here.
200:20
Speaker A
So you can see here this is when he was not uploading every single day. Then we started doing quantity and quality combined and we started scaling it up.
200:28
Speaker A
Now how do you recognize what is your quality and quantity and how do you actually get that metric to be able to understand what you need to do improve right because at the end of the day you want actionable steps here. So what you
200:38
Speaker A
should do is first look at your video analytics and then look at the retention of your videos, right? Because at the end of the day, if we want to get the most amount of views, we were rewarded these views from YouTube, right? So
200:51
Speaker A
YouTube's algorithm uh will determine if a video is going to get pushed out to the uh to the algorithm to get more views. Now, why does YouTube actually push out videos to get views? It's because YouTube wants to make money,
201:03
Speaker A
right? So, you need to understand that if you want to get views, you need to have the mindset that we're going to help the YouTube algorithm make more money. Because at the end of the day, YouTube is a business. The YouTube
201:12
Speaker A
algorithm is going to push out videos that makes them money. If it makes them money, then it'll push out to more people, right? Because I I saw I got this question the other day from one of my students as well that was asking
201:21
Speaker A
like, "Hey Devin, where do you see the future of YouTube going with all this AI stuff happening right now?" Right?
201:26
Speaker A
because there's so much different stuff happening with AI and there's so much different uh people who are, you know, uploading AI slop and they're getting millions of views. So, what's the direction you see YouTube going? And I told him, it's going in the direction
201:38
Speaker A
that makes them the most amount of money, right? Because YouTube is a business. It's a corporation. They need to make more money. If you make videos that make them more money, you will get awarded views because views again equal
201:46
Speaker A
money, right? So, how does YouTube actually make money from views? So, you need to understand that YouTube makes money through views through Google ads, right? So there's people like me and you who can actually go on Google ads right
201:59
Speaker A
and they can pay for ad placements on Google. So Google ads are awarded uh to you know these people who you know do the ad placements. YouTube gets a cut of the revenue and then after they get the
202:11
Speaker A
cut of the revenue this is where RPM becomes a thing. When our RPM is generated YouTube takes a 4555 split uh with us being in favor here to make the most amount of money possible. Right?
202:24
Speaker A
So, this is kind of how YouTube makes money and how we make money, right? We make money because YouTube is making money as well. YouTube is not just randomly gifting us dollars, right?
202:33
Speaker A
We're making the money. Advertisers are making money because of ad placements. Okay? Now that you understand this, how do we actually get to the 10 million view 48 hour mark, right? Well, look at the analytics that actually get you
202:44
Speaker A
views rather than uh, you know, getting vanity metrics, right? So, if you don't know what a vanity metric is, a vanity metric, right, I'm just going to put vmetrics here. A vanity metric is a metric that is awarded to you through
202:59
Speaker A
YouTube's algorithm for, for example, engagement, but doesn't actually make the money, right? For example, subscribers is a vanity metric, right? Because if you subscribe to a channel, does this make the channel more money? No. Does it make YouTube more money? No. Right? It's
203:14
Speaker A
just another tick in the system, right? Subscribers are a vanity metric. Clicking on the sound, clicking on sound is a vanity metric as well, right? Clicking on sound is also a vanity metric. Another vanity metric is comments, right? And you'll
203:32
Speaker A
kind of start noticing here that a lot of metrics that are measured on YouTube like comments, uh, you know, subscribers, clicking on the sound, remixes, these are all vanity metrics that do not make YouTube money. Now, what metrics actually do make YouTube
203:47
Speaker A
money? Well, retention is one of them. There's also swipe ratio, right? And there's also average view duration.
203:54
Speaker A
These are honestly all the metrics you need to understand how YouTube makes money. Oh, and also link the video as well, right? And this is kind of how I've created my trust score. I've been doing this YouTube game for like eight
204:03
Speaker A
years now. These are the metrics I've noticed when I improve these metrics, we make a lot of money doing it. All right.
204:09
Speaker A
Now, what do we actually do to improve these metrics? because you can be like, "Okay, Devin, I understand you got to improve these metrics, but what do we do here to actually make money from it?" Right? So, we have retention, swipe
204:20
Speaker A
ratio, length of video, and average view duration. Awesome sauce, right? Let's put this over here.
204:27
Speaker A
All right. So, first, let's go over retention. So, YouTube makes money when a person spends time on that video and then buys a product from a Google ad placement. When the Google ad placement has a person who buys a product, the
204:42
Speaker A
advertisers see it as a good return on their investment and they go back to YouTube to make them more money. All right. So in simple terms, if we make videos that make Google advertisers money, then YouTube makes money. All
204:56
Speaker A
right. Okay. Awesome. So what retention do we need to make Google advertisers money which makes YouTube money as well?
205:04
Speaker A
Getting a 100 plus% retention is ideal to make uh advertisers more money and then this also makes YouTube more money as well which also makes us money.
205:19
Speaker A
I hope you guys are getting the picture here. Right. Awesome. Swipe ratio. What do we need our swipe ratio to be to make sure people are making the most amount of money? Ideally, we want our swipe ratio, you know, if in the perfect world
205:31
Speaker A
we want to be to 100%. But that is not possible. If you can have an 81.1% plus swipe ratio, this is an ideal place to be to make the, you know, most amount of money. And you'll notice throughout the
205:41
Speaker A
course of this boot camp, I'm going to mention all of these multiple times to drill it in your head how important these metrics are. Okay, average view duration. What do we want our average view duration to be? We want our average
205:52
Speaker A
view duration to be higher than the length of our video. If you guys don't know what these metrics mean, retention is the percentage of someone watching all the way through. Swipe ratio is the swipe or swipe rate of people actually
206:08
Speaker A
staying on your video. Average view duration stands for the average view duration of your video and LOV stands for the length of your video. All right, remember these terms. Go rewatch that part again if you need to understand
206:21
Speaker A
those metrics. This is a very important thing to go over and understand. I will be using R factor as retention, SW is swipe ratio, AVD is average view duration, and LOV is length of video for the remaining of this boot camp. All
206:33
Speaker A
right? Because you guys need to understand this is the YouTube master class here, so you need to understand how to do this stuff. And lastly, our LOV should be 32 seconds long. Make sure you're uploading 32 second videos. All
206:45
Speaker A
right. Now, why do we want to hit these metrics, right? So, the first thing is remember, we're always thinking about advertisers here. So there was a study done that showed that advertisers are willing to spend more money on 32 second
206:58
Speaker A
videos, right? So if we spend more money on 32 if if we make 32cond videos, these Google ads will spend more money on us.
207:04
Speaker A
If more money is spent on our video, then YouTube will push out more of our metrics. For example, like this channel here, it's getting pushed out very drastically because we started uploading 32 second videos. If I go to content and
207:16
Speaker A
then I go to videos here, um, my editor will probably have to blur this out a lot, but if I sort here and I should just go down, you can see that originally we were not uploading 32 second videos. I'm going to have my
207:29
Speaker A
editor kind of just show these numbers here real quick. You can see this is 43, 20, 35, 34, 39. And these videos were, you know, performing okay. They were performing pretty well. But if we just go up now, you know, to like kind of
207:42
Speaker A
more recent, you can see that we're getting way higher views here. Let's see if my editor can blur out. We have 33, 35, 36, 33, 32. So these videos, you know, are performing a lot better because we're getting in that range of
207:57
Speaker A
32 seconds. When advertisers see that they're making a return on their investment, they will spend more money on you, which will also increase the amount of views you're getting. All right, awesome. I hope you guys understand that. So remember again 32
208:08
Speaker A
second videos, ads spend more. When ads spend more, guess what? YouTube makes more as well. And when YouTube makes more, we make more. And when we make more, we also get more views, which is the 48 hour mark that I'm talking about.
208:26
Speaker A
Awesome. Okay. Same thing for this as well. The reason we want why we want to have a higher LOV, same thing with the study as well. Advertisers studied and showed that if you watch a video longer than the average view duration or the
208:37
Speaker A
average length of video of the video, then you will actually get pushed out to the algorithm further and advertisers will make more money. All right, so this is pretty much the entire formula I use here for view maximizing, right? And of
208:48
Speaker A
course, I'm going to go into more in depth about this because this is only day four of the view maximizing boot camp. We still have so many stuff to go over. We're going to be doing this in the next 30 days. If you guys haven't
208:57
Speaker A
looked at the boot camp yet, there's a free playlist on YouTube where I'm going over every single day more information to maximize your channel scale from zero to $10,000 a month and then 10 to $100,000 a month as we are doing across
209:08
Speaker A
all the channels we were doing right now. As you can see here, we are running a buttload of channels here. We're running a ton of channels and we're getting a ton of views on all these channels as well because we view
209:19
Speaker A
maximize. So main takeaways, guys, one more time. Retention, swipe ratio, average view duration, link the video, maximize them, get the best metrics you can possibly get. 32 second videos makes you the most money. Bada boom, bada bing. There's a checklist that you guys
209:34
Speaker A
need to always go through before you upload a video. All right, so I'm going to kind of show that to you guys right now. The first thing you need to understand when you're making a checklist uh for content is you need to
209:46
Speaker A
understand, okay, why are we making a checklist in the first place? So, YouTube has a lot of key metrics that they look for before they push a video out. For example, your attention, your average view duration, how long a video
209:57
Speaker A
is, are you including tags, how old is your channel, how many times have you uploaded, how many times you upload it today. All of these things are really important. What's your casual viewer rating? Right? So, of all of those, I'm
210:07
Speaker A
going to kind of list the more important things so when you guys are uploading videos in the future, you can kind of know what to do, right? So, the first things first, the most important thing is uploading a 32 second video, right? I
210:18
Speaker A
know people have gotten viral videos before that are not 32 seconds. I'm telling you right now, if you upload a 32- second video, you are more likely to go viral. I have had hundreds, well, not hundreds, I would say close to maybe
210:31
Speaker A
50-ish videos that have hitten over a 100 million views across all my channels. And all of them were at least 32 seconds long. You will not see a video that has over a 100 million views that is under 32 seconds long. And if
210:45
Speaker A
you as a content creator are trying to reach the biggest amount of reach possible, you should be trying to optimize your channel for the most reach, which is why aim for 32 second videos is ideal. So, if you're uploading
210:57
Speaker A
videos that's 29 seconds and you're wondering, hm, why am I stuck in 30k view jail? Well, actually, maybe you should probably upload longer videos.
211:03
Speaker A
This is the bare minimum. And there's a couple reasons for this. I've kind of gone over it in the boot camp, but I'm going to go over it again anyway, so it kind of makes sense for you guys. And I
211:11
Speaker A
just realized, bro, my computer's not plugged in. Let me put up the charger quick.
211:16
Speaker A
So, one thing I would say um is really important when you're uploading two 32 second videos is advertisers are willing to spend more on videos that are longer.
211:27
Speaker A
So, there was a study actually done by advertisers and they noticed that uh people who watched 32 second videos or longer ended up spending more money for an ad, right? So, advertisers, what do you think they're going to do? They're
211:38
Speaker A
going to want to spend more money on ads. And also, you got to remember YouTube is a business, right? So, if YouTube is a business and they're trying to make the most amount of money possible, then they're probably going to
211:48
Speaker A
want to push out videos that advertisers are willing to spend more money on, right? So uploading 32 secondond videos, even if you're not monetized, is going to immediately get you pushed out to the algorithm because the algorithm wants to
211:59
Speaker A
make money for YouTube because YouTube is a business, right? So if you actually upload 30 32cond videos, you're going to make more money. Also, on top of that, for music royalties as well, music companies have noticed as well that
212:11
Speaker A
there's a higher conversion rate with 32C plus videos. If you upload a 32C video to YouTube, when you're using a music royalty, your RPM will 5 to 10x like for your music royalty. And I know music royalty has been a little more
212:24
Speaker A
stinky recently because of all the bands and stuff, especially with blastoff and stuff. I know you guys were using the Luna. The Luna actually shut down applications because they don't also want to get banned. But this still goes
212:34
Speaker A
regardless. You know, if music royalties end up coming back, music royalties are also a big reason why 32C videos are important. Does that kind of make sense, guys? Can I get a thumbs up or thumbs down or yes, no? Does that make sense to
212:45
Speaker A
you guys? Or does did I not explain that good? Okay. Awesome. All right. So, yeah, that's the first step, right? That's the first step in understanding um your checklist. The second thing you want to look for is making sure your swipe ratio
213:04
Speaker A
is above 81.1%. All right? If your swipe ratio is below 81.1%, you can still get a viral video, but it's not going to be as likely because, like I said, over the thousands of videos I've uploaded across all my
213:19
Speaker A
channels, I've not had a viral video over a 100 million views have below an 81.1% swipe ratio. Like, this is like that is the criteria. You need to reach in order to get a viral video. If your swipe ratio is below 81.1%, then you're
213:35
Speaker A
probably doing something wrong. You should look at your hook, right? And look at either are you doing a hook or are you doing an anti-hook? Either one works, right? But you need to make sure you're getting the swipe ratio to above
213:45
Speaker A
or at 81.1%. Does that make sense, guys? So, how do you get it up? Great question.
213:54
Speaker A
So, I think it depends on the niche. I don't want to give the most I can give the most broad advice for you, but it's going to kind of depend on whatever content you're uploading. But I would say the best way to get someone to
214:05
Speaker A
immediately watch your video is to throw them into it, right? You want to throw them in. Um, a lot of people, they kind of start the video with, "What's up guys in this video?" or "In this short," or
214:16
Speaker A
blah blah blah blah blah. And people don't like that because they don't like your time being wasted. If you watch basically all of my long form videos for my boot camp, I don't ever do intros.
214:27
Speaker A
I'm like 1.5 billion views in 28 days. Here's how I did it. Right? because you don't want to waste the viewers time cuz every single millisecond is important.
214:37
Speaker A
So in your future videos when you're uploading content, throw them straight into the video, right? If it's a Roblox channel, throw them straight into just a vine boom sound effect. If it's a ranking channel, don't do an intro. Just
214:49
Speaker A
throw them into the most like crazy clip. A lot another thing, guys, for ranking videos as well. If you're making ranking videos, like let's say you have seven of them, right? Even though you're starting off with like number three and
215:00
Speaker A
you're trying to basically just make it uh so number one's the most interesting, make your first clip the most interesting. Remember, you are the content creator. You have complete control over your video. It doesn't matter if the last clip is more
215:10
Speaker A
interesting or not. Your goal is to hook them in and keep them there, right? So, even if you use the most interesting clip as the first one, that's okay, right? Because we're we're not we don't have any rules we need to follow other
215:20
Speaker A
than these right here. Pretty much anything goes for content. Does that does that make sense, guys?
215:28
Speaker A
Okay, let me see real quick. What's up, bro? All right, let me read the rest of your questions. Um, wait, wait. Actually, there was one more thing for the checklist, guys. Don't use tags, by the way. I think I've already talked about
215:43
Speaker A
this a lot. I'm not going to explain it a little more real quick. Do not use tags. Tags are bad. All right, tags and descriptions as well. Tag/ description is bad.
215:55
Speaker A
So the reason why tags are bad is for two main reasons. The first one is when you use tags, you are initially reaching a set demographic of people. Let's say I wanted to target people who really like iPhones, right? And I make a content
216:10
Speaker A
about, hey, this new Apple product is pretty cool. People who have Android or Samsung really won't care about it as much, right? The reason why is because our goal as content creators is trying is trying to get the most amount of
216:22
Speaker A
reach possible, right? If we are not getting the most amount of reach possible, we're not getting the most amount of views, then we are limiting the amount of money we can make cuz I'm a view maxer. That's kind of what I I've
216:32
Speaker A
given myself like the name for. I'm a view maxer. So, instead of trying to maximize the amount of views I get in one niche, I target the world. So, actually, I was able to have a conversation with Mr. Beast. Um, it was
216:44
Speaker A
like a hundred creators in the Discord server and everyone got to ask him one question, right? And I got to ask him, I said, "Jimmy, what niche would you recommend me start or you know, pursue because I'm trying to get the most
216:54
Speaker A
amount of views." And Jimmy said, "If you're trying to get the most amount of views, you should target the world." And I kind of took that to heart and I took it to pretty much every single thing I
217:03
Speaker A
do moving forward when I'm making content, I try to target the world instead of targeting a set demographic of people. Because if we targeted people who like art and we were making pottery, then instead of targeting people who
217:14
Speaker A
make pottery, we should target people who care about art because it's a bigger demographic. Just like if we're making content about like ranking, we shouldn't just make content about ranking soccer clips. We should rank everything because it gives a broader reach because I bet
217:28
Speaker A
there's some people who don't care about soccer at all who will probably be interested if you make a more broad video. So, make sure you're trying to get the widest demographic of people.
217:37
Speaker A
And that's why I don't like using tags and descriptions because this actually indicates to YouTube that, hey, we're making Roblox content. We're just going to let's push it to Roblox content people only. And I bet there people who
217:47
Speaker A
play Fortnite, there people who play other games. I bet there's some, you know, moms who watch like the news and they give their kid the phone. The kids on the phone, they're scrolling and they see a Roblox video, the kids going to
217:55
Speaker A
watch it. You know, there's all these things that you don't really think about too much. But tags and descriptions are not good for pushing out shorts. Long form is a little different because long form you want to target people. For
218:05
Speaker A
example, for my boot camp videos, I use tags and descriptions, right? Because my goal is to target people like you guys, people who actually care about viewaxing, right? Because I don't think the average person who cares about pottery is going to care about
218:16
Speaker A
maximizing their views. But I know you guys do because you guys are content creators. Is that does that make sense?
218:28
Speaker A
All right, cool. So, tags aren't needed. Yeah, tags are not needed. What about viral tags? I'm going to talk about that a little later in a second.
218:36
Speaker A
All right, I'm glad you see what I'm I'm saying here, Spent. All right, let me scroll back up. Let me answer some more questions. Um, latest video is sitting at 75% to 85% CVR. What do you mean CVR?
218:46
Speaker A
I don't know what that means. What's What's a CVR? You mean swipe ratio, bro? Let me Yo, let me let me get him in here. Can you raise your hand? Let me get you in here, bro.
219:05
Speaker A
Guys, this guy is a goat when it comes to YouTube. What's up, bro? Guys this this guy is the goat of YouTube. I'm telling you right now.
219:39
Speaker A
What were you doing? Yeah, me too, bro. I've been going out recently, too. Honestly, I'm just answering some questions, bro. I'm just answering these guys questions over here because I haven't really been doing the call. So, I was like, you know what? I'm
219:57
Speaker A
going to do a big call for everyone. There we go. Let me see some more questions real quick.
220:08
Speaker A
Yeah, dude. I've been seeing your channel's been a little a little shaky the past couple videos.
220:19
Speaker A
Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna take a look at your channel later today and I'll give you a little update and see what I can tell you.
220:36
Speaker A
I'll do a Let me see real quick. Someone asked, "What if you get zero views on your newest video?" Well, that means your trust score is probably not optimized correctly. If you're getting zero views, that means YouTube doesn't
220:50
Speaker A
trust you. So, you probably should optimize your trust score first. Well, it doesn't really matter. I mean, you can create a new account today and upload and you probably can get like 50 views. It's just like make sure your
221:07
Speaker A
future eligibility is enabled. Don't use tags. Don't say subscribe in the video. Uh especially for your first video cuz YouTube detects all that stuff. There's like transcripts, you know, and if they like notice you're doing that stuff, they may indicate that you're a bot
221:20
Speaker A
account cuz the only reason you get zero views is if YouTube thinks you're a bot.
221:25
Speaker A
So that means you you're you need to act more like a human, bro. I think he's talking about like the pulsing thing you use.
222:01
Speaker A
Yeah, I bet I bet there's a capa animation for it. Yeah, you use presets, right?
222:20
Speaker A
Of course. Yeah, but he says someone said I have 81 videos. I monetized I monetized grateful but UK only two of my videos pop pooped popped popped off 30 million views 2 million views views 79 view jail. Okay. So
222:38
Speaker A
what I would do if I were you is I would look at your 30 million view video and look at all the analytics. Look at how long the video is. What's the niche? Did you use hashtags? What was the actual
222:48
Speaker A
content of the video? I mean, there's so much stuff that goes into it, man. Like, what's what's your niche? Are you okay saying that? We can we can take a look together and you can share I can share
222:56
Speaker A
my screen. I don't know if you're okay with me leaking your channel, though. I'm trying out Roblox rant niche. First video got 25k views. Fourth, got similar site ratio. Barely got 1k. So, bro, you're going to notice that when you are
223:18
Speaker A
uploading videos, your own first initial videos may get like a boost because YouTube's testing your audience and then you're going to have a drop. This is called a test and rebalance for when you're starting out. You guys can still
223:28
Speaker A
see my screen, right? Let me see right now. Okay. So, you had a 30 million view jail or 30 million video.
224:03
Speaker A
How long is the video? 23 seconds. Okay. Okay, let me look at your latest video and see the difference.
224:34
Speaker A
All right, I see the problem. So, okay, if you notice during your entire clip, what you did here is you created tension, right? So, tension is a really awesome emotion because when someone feels tension, they kind of freeze up
224:51
Speaker A
and they start watching. All right, for this video here, you didn't give me enough tension in the first couple seconds of your video. Like, I was going to If you actually just let the clip play out, you completely switched to another guy.
225:03
Speaker A
All of a sudden, I don't care anymore. Because we're talking about the girl now, we're talking about this guy. I don't care, right? But if we're talking about this guy here, you start off here where he drinks too much Red Bull. The
225:12
Speaker A
music is creating some type of tension. And then the entire clip is just him going down and up, right? That's pretty much it. That's all he's doing the entire time. So, because of that, it creates tension in the viewer's heart,
225:27
Speaker A
which makes them consistently watch. Right? For this one here, you had tension in the beginning, but then you just threw it all away when you brought up this other guy. Like, no one cares about this guy. They only care about the
225:37
Speaker A
girl. So, if you're going to build up a story, do it like how you did this video. Because if you replicate this style, you apply it to different people, you're going to get similar results.
225:47
Speaker A
Does that kind of make sense? All right, cool. Do that moving forward. Yeah, dude. Using emotions is really awesome, guys, because YouTube really wants two things. Well, uh really really three things, right? What does YouTube want? YouTube wants one to make money.
226:14
Speaker A
They want to satisfy the viewer and they want to keep people on their platform as long as possible on right. So if YouTube wants these three things, people on their platform as long as possible to make money and to satisfy
226:32
Speaker A
their viewer, then what is your job? It's to just apply all of these three things, right? So for example, if YouTube wants to make money, upload 32-cond videos because this increases the um the RPM and it also increases how
226:45
Speaker A
much money YouTube can make. If people wants to if YouTube wants to satisfy the viewer, then you should have a higher average view duration, preferably above 100% retention. Because if you have a 100% plus retention video, what does
226:56
Speaker A
this indicate? It indicates that someone watched the video all the way through and then they watched it again. They were so satisfied with your video that they watched it twice. That indicates YouTube satisfaction. If they want to keep people on the platform as long as
227:08
Speaker A
possible, what do you got to do? Increase your swipe ratio and also increase your average view duration. It just it all comes hand in hand in hand.
227:14
Speaker A
Remember, we are YouTube's uh butlers. We just basically do whatever YouTube wants. If YouTube wants people on the platform as long as possible, make the most money and to satisfy the viewer, then we're just we're just that's what
227:27
Speaker A
we do for YouTube. That's pretty much it. Does that make sense, guys? Unless you use unless you use chatbt, you do all the AI stuff for you. Do the voices automated?
227:58
Speaker A
That is true. That's very true. You know, Roblox brands are a little annoying to watch. Sometimes I watch them. It just it depends on um if it's actually interesting or not, you know, but I'm sure little kids like they eat
228:12
Speaker A
that up. Can you Can you view my Roblox rant channel? Share. Did you send it? Let's Let's review it.
228:28
Speaker A
I'm just immediately not interested. Um I Okay, I wouldn't start off with this long text here, right? You'll notice with a lot of more viral videos, they only have a small amount of text. One, two, or even three words. Three words
228:43
Speaker A
max, by the way. Right? If you're going to have a Roblox rants, have it so one word is popping up on the screen always.
228:49
Speaker A
Uh you don't want this like this because I'm going be straight with you guys. The people who actually like play Roblox on mass scale or little kids and a lot of them are illiterate. They they don't know how to read. So putting a big text
229:01
Speaker A
like that is just going to immediately just turn them off. Um so I'd recommend not putting a lot of text like that.
229:13
Speaker A
Yeah, there's nothing really happening. Yeah. And um these images are behind the text. I've never seen this error before.
229:22
Speaker A
I probably wouldn't use this. The sound effects didn't match up with the actual images itself. I would probably The music's okay, but I mean like I would probably make the voice higher pitch and faster, right? It's too slow.
229:39
Speaker A
I think the music's too loud as well because I don't can't really hear him too well.
229:48
Speaker A
Yeah. Yeah, that's okay. But um don't use any transitions as well if you're doing uh you for those Roblox rant stuff. You'll notice like it's really fast-paced, entertaining stuff going on. It's commentary over the background of something like he's going through some
230:02
Speaker A
of the parkour. Um yeah, a lot of stuff I would fix for that one.
230:07
Speaker A
Can you review my GTA shorts? I'll look at your thumbnails. I don't know if I want to walk look at a long form video here.
230:18
Speaker A
What? What do you mean 10 months? Oh yeah. Let's see. These actually these thumbnails are actually pretty good. Not going to lie. I don't think these are bad. I'd probably make it a little more glowy, but like it's not really a bad
230:38
Speaker A
thing. What's your What's your average CTA, bro? I definitely increase the saturation. Also, I'd get rid of this Grand Theft Auto logo in the in the in the corner of the screen. Um, just because like you don't want there
231:03
Speaker A
to be clutter. So, I would just not put it there. Like you don't see Mr. Beast putting Feast of Bolts on the bottom right of his thumbnails. It's just very, very simple. So, I'd recommend doing that as well.
231:17
Speaker A
All right. Okay. We're getting a lot of channels here. Now, before I start looking at these, can I have any more questions, guys? You have any questions or anything like that before I hop into actually channel reviews?
231:29
Speaker A
like just general questions I can answer so anyone who's listening could kind of take it. Oh, viral tags. That's a good one. Okay, I actually was going to make a video on this tonight. Um, so here's the thing with viral tags, right? So,
231:42
Speaker A
let me kind of explain how viral tags works. So, for these viral tags, you'll see a lot of these people, they use like the kind of like the hashtag and some random like Pakistan or Indian creator.
231:51
Speaker A
So for viral tags what it does it's basically these Pakistan or Indian creators have a team of people who upload mass scale videos using a certain hashtag and what it does is it inflates the views for that hashtag and when people when YouTube
232:08
Speaker A
sees a lot of people uh uploading one video on multiple or sorry one hashtag on multiple videos uh they're going to see that there is an increase and they're going to see as a trend right so what happens is you guys know that
232:20
Speaker A
YouTube growth growth is exponential. So if the creators who are actually making this trend in the first place are uploading here and they create the hashtag, they're going to basically ride the entire wave of views all the way up,
232:34
Speaker A
right? And this is pretty OP because if they're w riding the wave all the way up, they get to basically carry all that views with them. Now, let's say you are a person who enters around here, right?
232:44
Speaker A
You're probably going to w ride the wave around this far and then there's going to be a new hashtag. So, is this good for your channel? Now, it's good for you to get monetized and to get views because uh you know, in the end of the
232:56
Speaker A
day, you're basically just using a little exploit to get views. But is it good for long-term channel growth? No.
233:02
Speaker A
Because the people who are actually seeing these hashtags, it's not going to build any casual viewers for you. You'll notice that bigger channels have around a 50% plus casual viewer rating. And what that indicates is it basically means they're going to get views every
233:15
Speaker A
month. That's guaranteed income, right? It doesn't matter if they stopped uploading for an entire month. They can upload in a month from now and they'll still get pushed out cuz their casual viewer rating is so high. What this does
233:25
Speaker A
is it basically just keeps pulling in new viewers, which views equals good money, but also remember that these people are probably going to be from lower income countries, which is going to decrease your RPM. Now, me personally, I don't care about
233:37
Speaker A
increasing or decreasing my RPM because I'm a view maxer. I just care about getting the most amount of views possible. But if I were you guys, you could probably use it to get monetized.
233:45
Speaker A
It's not really a bad thing. You know, I'm explaining how to make videos so good it's stupid not to watch them. So, I'm sure if you're watching this, you've uploaded some sort of video on social media before. And maybe you got some
233:54
Speaker A
views, maybe you got no views, but you weren't able to go viral. Or maybe you have gone viral, but you weren't able to repeatedly go viral. So, in this video, I'm explaining how to do that in more detail, what makes a viral video, and
234:05
Speaker A
how to consistently make good videos so anyone who sees it will watch them. And also, full disclaimer, guys, I have nothing to sell you. If you guys want the notes to this uh document, it's going to be linked in the description.
234:15
Speaker A
Uh I really I don't have any mentorship or any course or anything like that. And on top of that, the only reason I'm really making this video is because I'm trying to make more business friends and social media friends. So if you guys are
234:25
Speaker A
interested in I guess just talking, you could join my Discord and maybe we can talk there. Anyways, let's get into it.
234:30
Speaker A
So why is making a good video important? Well, as you guys know, today we live in the attention economy, which means that if you get views in turn, you're going to get more sales. There's a Mr. Beast philosophy that goes, you know, the more
234:40
Speaker A
videos you make and the broader audience you're able to reach, the more money you can make. So, there's kind of a misconception where if you do targeted advertising or you do targeted videos, you're going to make more money because
234:50
Speaker A
it's easier to get those sales. These are called warm leads. Warm leads are basically people who already kind of are interested in what you're buying or what you're selling, but uh they haven't actually bought yet because you haven't
235:00
Speaker A
convinced them. But it's easier to sell to someone who is warm. On the other hand, I like going the cold reach output where you just go with the maximum maximum amount of people, but there's a way to make videos, you know, so viral
235:11
Speaker A
that anyone who sees it will be interested in buying. So, that kind of brings us to our second point of what makes a good video. Well, the first thing you need to understand is emotion is the most important aspect of making a
235:21
Speaker A
good video. If you're making a video and you know it's boring, maybe you're not, you know, talking loud enough or maybe there's not good music. Whatever it is, the emotion they feel is going to dictate if they stay or if they leave.
235:31
Speaker A
For example, if you're bored right now, you may head out and you may not watch the rest of this video because you may think it's not valuable to you. Or if you're interested in what I'm saying, you're going to keep watching because
235:39
Speaker A
you understand that I'm giving value. The same thing goes for anything. Doesn't matter if it's funny videos, relationship videos, educational videos.
235:47
Speaker A
If you're not giving them some type of emotion to feel that they're getting value from, then they're not going to stay. And this applies more to short form because if someone's watching a short form video, the second they feel
235:57
Speaker A
like they're not getting the emotion they want out of your video, they're going to scroll away. So, for example, if you're making a couple's product or a couple's video and, you know, they don't feel that uh connection of, you know, to
236:07
Speaker A
their couple, maybe they feel like they can't share it. maybe don't they don't feel like any type of love or any type of uh funny emotion they're feeling from that then they're just going to scroll away. Same thing goes with educational
236:16
Speaker A
videos. If you're watching educational video and you feel like you're not getting, you know, the information that you feel like you were going to get, maybe you feel like you were click baited or something, then you're going to click off that video and you're going
236:25
Speaker A
to watch something else. And the reason you do that is because humans hate being scammed. And if you make, you know, the person who's watching the video feel the emotion that you want them to feel, you're going to continuously go viral.
236:36
Speaker A
And that's how I went viral over and over again on Instagram across many different accounts, on Tik Tok, off many different accounts, on YouTube, off many different accounts because I understand that when I'm making videos, I want the
236:47
Speaker A
viewer to feel something because feelings, as you know, cringe as it sounds, is the most important aspect to social media. And the reason why emotions are the most important thing is because it makes people take action. So, for example, if you're making like an a
236:59
Speaker A
video that's going to rage bait someone or they're going to feel angry, then they're going to take action in comments. Or maybe they'll share with their friends saying, "Yo, you know, what the heck is this guy doing?" Or if
237:07
Speaker A
you make a funny video, they're going to share it with their friends. They're going to comment something funny. Or if they make like a a couple's video, they're going to share with their girlfriend. Making people feel emotions causes them to take action. And action
237:18
Speaker A
is what causes you to make money. Because if they're going to take action after they watch your video, they're going to feel something. They may buy something for you. They may follow you.
237:26
Speaker A
They may like your video. They may comment on it. They may repost it. Whatever it is, they cannot do that unless they feel an emotion. So, I really want to drive this point home that making them feel an emotion is one
237:36
Speaker A
of the most important lessons you need to understand if you want to start going viral. Because if you're making videos purely about talking about a product or something or you're just talking about like some type of philosophy or
237:46
Speaker A
something, if it's not interesting, if they're not feeling the emotion, anything other than boredom, they're going to keep watching. But if they are feeling the emotion of boredom, they're going to scroll away or they're going to click off the video. They're not going
237:57
Speaker A
to come back to your channel again. That brings me to the second point of emotions, which is AVD. So AVD stands for average view duration. And if someone is feeling an emotion consistently, then they're going to continuously watch the video. For
238:08
Speaker A
example, if they go from sad to angry to happy or you consistently make them angry or you consistently make them happy, then they're going to continue to stay. But the second they go from angry happy to bored, they're going to click
238:18
Speaker A
off at the bored portion of your video. So make sure you don't make your videos boring. That's why it's important to cut out, you know, open spaces and in your videos or maybe cut out places where you mess up or maybe you cut out places that
238:29
Speaker A
just really just, you know, don't have a lot of things moving around. For example, if you have a black part of your video where there's nothing happening, then of course people are going to click off your video because
238:38
Speaker A
it's black. And if it's black, nothing's happening, and they're going to feel the emotion of boredom. They're going to scroll away. This also kind of goes into retention editing as well, which is why people like Mr. Beast are able to
238:46
Speaker A
continuously go viral because one, they have a good idea. They're consistently making them have, you know, more emotions for their audience. And also, they're making sure that their retention is really good. So, they're editing anything that's bad out. Anything that
238:58
Speaker A
would be slightly boring, they're going to cut it. They're going to add explosions. They're going to add captions, music, everything. They make sure you constantly feel stimulated. And in turn, this makes you want to watch the videos longer. The next point is
239:09
Speaker A
packaging. Now, packaging is really important, especially if you're doing more long form videos, because if you're doing a long form video, you need to make sure you have a good title, a good hook, and a good thumbnail. If you don't
239:18
Speaker A
have those three, people aren't going to watch your videos because, as I said earlier, AVD is very important for retention. So, if someone's not watching your video for a very long time, why would a platform push out your video?
239:27
Speaker A
Because platforms want one thing from their uh creators. They want them to make videos that are long and keep people on their platform longer because if people stay on their platform longer, those platforms make more money. So, if
239:38
Speaker A
you make good content that actually keeps people on your, you know, video longer, your video is going to continuously get pushed out to the algorithm because, you know, YouTube or Tik Tok or Instagram knows that, hey, this is a good video. Now, for
239:48
Speaker A
packaging, it's a little different for short form because um for short form, you need to make sure your hook in your first frame of your video is really important. The first frame and the first, you know, three milliseconds of
239:57
Speaker A
your video is the most important aspect for short form. For long form, it's a little different and I'll kind of go into the details of long form and short form and which ones to do for each tips for each of them and what you need to
240:08
Speaker A
avoid doing and what you need to make sure you're doing for long form and short form. So, for short form videos, the first thing you need to understand is it's easier to actually have more room for error. If you mess up making a
240:17
Speaker A
short form video, it's okay because you only spend maybe an hour making it. You can spend another hour making another video. Contrary to long form, there's less room for error. So, if you make a long form video and you mess up, there
240:27
Speaker A
goes three days of editing. There goes, you know, seven days of your life because you messed up one thing. So, there's less room for error, and you need to continuously make sure your videos are perfect. Now, in reality, you
240:37
Speaker A
should be making sure both videos are perfect for long form and short form. But short form, there's more room for error because if you mess up, it's okay.
240:42
Speaker A
You only lost an hour of your time rather than a week of your time. The second thing for short form is it's easier to get more views because platforms are okay testing your videos out because like I said earlier, there's
240:52
Speaker A
more room for error. So, if you make a video and it goes viral, you know, you can kind of analyze that and repeat that over and over again and um people forget really quickly because when they're watching a short form video, it's kind
241:02
Speaker A
of like they're in a hypnosis. So, when they're watching your videos, they kind of forget that they're watching. So you can make the same video five times in a row and kind of just change up a couple things and people will keep watching it
241:13
Speaker A
because it's short form rather than long form. If I made five documentaries about tigers or something after the first video people are going to watch us want to watch a second video about tigers.
241:22
Speaker A
It's boring you know. So uh what's good about long form though is that it's easier to get targeted views specifically with search terms. So with YouTube, you guys already know that there's this thing called evergreen content. And this basically means that
241:34
Speaker A
like a tutorial videos. For example, if you look up how to install Windows on my computer. If you look that up, there's a pretty good chance there's a, you know, a couple videos on there that are uploaded, you know, years and years ago
241:44
Speaker A
and they're still getting views every single day because someone always needs to install Windows on their computer.
241:48
Speaker A
Same thing goes for business or for, you know, video games or whatever. If you make an evergreen tutorial video, you can continuously get views and in turn you'll get more and more money. And on top of that, if you have affiliates on
241:58
Speaker A
those videos, you'll continuously get more and more affiliate sales as well. But I'm not going to get too much into affiliate sales cuz this is how to make a good video and how to make money from your good videos. The next thing I want
242:06
Speaker A
to talk about is storytelling. Now, storytelling is really, really important for making videos in general because if you don't have a good story to tell, then people aren't going to watch because stories is how you convey emotions. So, for short form, it's
242:18
Speaker A
harder to tell a good story in such a short amount of time because of course, you have a short amount of time rather than long form. Long form, it's easier to tell stories. So, if you want to have
242:26
Speaker A
a whole, you know, documentary on your life, it's going to be hard to squeeze that into a one minute video. But that also means if you are able to do that, you have that skill, you are actually going to have more views because you
242:36
Speaker A
have the ability to squeeze something into a short period of time rather than long form. If you're able to tell a very complex, detailed story that's interesting and you're able to get people to watch that continuously, then you also are going to get more views.
242:47
Speaker A
But remember, it also depends on the packaging. For example, if I made a documentary about Devon Cat's life, which is me, I'm Devon Cenat, people probably won't care because they don't know who I am. Rather than if I make a
242:56
Speaker A
documentary about Alex Ramosi or Mr. Beast like Jimmy, like, of course, they're going to watch it because they care about those people. This is something I did as well where I did documentary style videos. Like, for example, one video I talked about
243:06
Speaker A
Fearless, which was like a a Fortnite YouTuber that kind of died down um like about like three, four years ago, and I made that video and it got 230,000 views and generated me like $1,000. So, I'm telling you, like if you guys want to
243:16
Speaker A
look it up, it's called Devon Talks. And I have a whole documentary videos on there. The last thing for a short form is it's much harder to sell products because on average short form products have an average conversion rate of 0.1
243:27
Speaker A
to 1%. 1% being the highest. So for example, if you get a,000 views and you have a 1% conversion rate, that's like 10 sales, which is very very impressive.
243:35
Speaker A
By the way, if you're able to do that on short form, congratulations. You're like the top top elites. But on average, you're probably going to get like 01 to 0001% of the people who actually watch your videos um being able to buy
243:46
Speaker A
something. But there is a caveat to that because you know you do have more room for error and you're able to get more views easier. So the more views you get you know 0001 really a million views that's going to be like 10 sales or uh
243:57
Speaker A
100 sales you know what I mean? But for long form it's much easier to actually get higher conversions because you're able to convey a story. So when you're telling a story or when you're you know conveying emotions for example if I told
244:08
Speaker A
a story of when I was little I was only able to breathe out of one nostril. Then I found no strips and then I explain, you know, all the me testing all these different nose strips and then I explain
244:16
Speaker A
this nose strip that I use and then I promote it. People are most likely to buy that because they feel that emotion of hey this guy went through this pain.
244:24
Speaker A
He explained to me his problem. He explained to me his solution and then he gave me his solution which was you know the no strip and then they end up buying it. So, of course, if you have a long
244:33
Speaker A
form video, you're going to get going to an average from one to 5% conversion rates, which is why people like brands will pay YouTubers way more money for promotions because um YouTube videos convert a lot higher. For example, I got
244:45
Speaker A
paid $500 as a a YouTuber who was only getting like 10,000 views a video on one of my channels for promoting like this like um it was like this e-commerce tool where I was able to basically like do
244:55
Speaker A
like automatic ads and on social a short form platform I'd probably get paid like $50 to $100. On YouTube I got paid like $550 or something. I don't really remember the exact amount but it's much higher. You will get paid like five
245:07
Speaker A
times to 10 times the amount. And also if you consistently get more views, YouTube videos have evergreen uh potential which means you'll get views forever and in turn those brands will get sales forever. Like I talked about earlier about how affiliate deals if you
245:18
Speaker A
have evergreen content with an affiliate brand on it, you will get more money in the long run uh over a consistent uh period of time. The last step in that making video is so good it's stupid not to watch is having a good video idea
245:30
Speaker A
generator. So, if you're continuously able to generate good video ideas, you're going to continuously get views because the idea is the most core important aspect of making a video. Mr.
245:40
Speaker A
B said this, but if you have a good video idea, you're not going to just do like 10 times better, even a 100 times better than the video that's like an okay idea. You're going to do a thousand, 10,000, 100,000 times better.
245:51
Speaker A
For example, if you make a video that gets 1 million views, which I know is a lot, but you able to tweak it and have a better idea, you can go from one million to a 100 million. And this is what Mr. B
246:00
Speaker A
says. So, you know, if you don't want to take it from me, take it from him. He's the most popular man on the planet in terms of YouTube and social media. He's most followed on uh YouTube and almost
246:09
Speaker A
on Instagram and Tik Tok as well. So, why would you not listen to him? And a good way to have a good idea generation is making sure you title everything correctly. For example, if I made this video titled, how to make a good video
246:21
Speaker A
compared to how to make a good video, it's so stupid not to watch. Of course, you're probably going to click on the one that evokes a little more emotion you, which is kind of what we went over earlier on, you know, emotions because
246:32
Speaker A
emotions is very, very important. So, make sure that you're having good video ideas and good video generation. Run it through people, run it through friends, run it through, you know, your mom. Ask her like, "Hey, what do you think about
246:42
Speaker A
this?" Ask your friends, "What do you think about this?" You, you could join my Discord server. You can ask me, hey, what do you feel about this idea? So, if you have trouble with getting good video idea generation, I recommend talking to
246:52
Speaker A
chatbt. Now, it's not the smartest thing, but it'll give you, you know, a little like uh head start and it'll kind of start like warming your engine up, so you'll be able to think of more ideas.
247:00
Speaker A
You can bounce ideas off of it. And of course, it's a uh it's a artificial intelligence, so it's not going to know everything. It's AGI, which means it's artificial general intelligence, but still, it's going to help you learn
247:09
Speaker A
more. And I'm sure as this video um you know gets older and older, I'm sure there's more AIs and they're going to be more advanced and you're going be able to bounce ideas off more and more. But remember, your mind is the most
247:19
Speaker A
important tool that you have to you know solve any type of problem when it comes to having some type of idea. Everything around you in your room right now or wherever you are right now, this this was made by this was made by people,
247:29
Speaker A
right? It was made by ideas of people. So, if you're able to keep generating ideas and you're able to um master the skill of generating ideas, you're never going to run out of content and in turn you're never going to run out of views
247:40
Speaker A
and in turn you're never going to run out of good videos, how to, you know, scale your audiences and actually get lots of views. So, let's get into it.
247:47
Speaker A
Also, before we start, guys, I'm not here to sell you anything. If you look in the description, there's nothing to buy because I have nothing to sell you.
247:53
Speaker A
I don't need to make money off you guys like some other gurus. I'm honestly just sharing this information because it feels good to teach people and I love seeing the nice comments. Anyways, let's get into it. So, the first thing you
248:02
Speaker A
need to realize is when you are making videos, you need to pick videos that are actually going to be niche oriented, right? A lot of people think that you got to pick a really specific niche and then you got to target on that. And I
248:13
Speaker A
kind of disagree and this is Mr. Beast method where if you upload um the highest quality videos, then a lot of people are going to see it. You should focus on quantity over quality because right now you are not capable of
248:27
Speaker A
quality. And I don't mean to be insulting. I just want to say that quality takes repetition. And most you guys have not put in the reps. I have made over 2,000 videos before I even got my first 10,000 view video. Right? And
248:39
Speaker A
that took a very very long time to do, right? Uh it took me what like four or five years. And then after I hit the 10,000 view video, then I learned from that and I started realizing, okay, if I
248:49
Speaker A
improve more and more, I'll get more and more views. And you can do the same. So I really do recommend using the Mr.
248:54
Speaker A
beast method of aiming for quantity, right? Quantity over quality because the more output you have, the better results you're going to be able to make. So, focus on more. The rule of more, rule of 100. I'm sure you guys have heard this
249:08
Speaker A
already, but if you haven't, you can upload up to a 100 videos a day on Instagram. And Instagram is a really good target audience and a good place to start because Instagram videos specifically, they get pushed out to all
249:19
Speaker A
types of people. So, if you guys are going to test on any platform, don't do YouTube and Tik Tok when you're starting. Just test on Instagram. Like, make a new Instagram account and just test. And if you're worried about, oh,
249:29
Speaker A
what if my friends see? What if my family sees, bro, I'm guessing you're making videos because you want to make money. And if you're worried about the, you know, the thoughts of people and how they see you affecting how much views
249:40
Speaker A
you get, then I promise you, you're not going to be successful. All right? Of course, you can do faceless accounts.
249:44
Speaker A
And if you want to do that, sure, go for it. You can output a lot of faceless stuff. But if you actually want to focus on the results of getting the most amount of views possible, you cannot be
249:53
Speaker A
focused on what other people think about you because that's only going to hinder you. You don't want anything to hinder you. The next thing I would say is after you've started uploading lots of videos on Instagram, start uploading your good
250:03
Speaker A
videos, the videos that perform a little well onto YouTube and Tik Tok. So what's great about YouTube and Tik Tok specifically is because YouTube and Tik Tok have analytics that you can see the videos. So if you don't know what
250:14
Speaker A
retention is, there's this thing called video retention. And retention basically means the percent of people who stay towards the end of your video. So for example, if this video got 50% retention and it got 1,000 views, that means 500
250:26
Speaker A
people stayed until the end of the video. So retention graphs usually look like this, where it kind of goes like this. It dips down and then goes like that. And this is most likely what your retention graphs look like because most
250:35
Speaker A
you guys aren't getting a lot of views. But a good retention graph will look something like this where it's just consistently kind of staying here. Maybe it'll dip a little bit and it'll stay like that. That's why I would consider a
250:44
Speaker A
good retention graph because that's this means that most people who watched the video stayed until the very end. So this is like maybe like a 14% retention and this is probably like an 80% retention.
250:55
Speaker A
So only 20% of people left until the very end and this one um 86% of people left at the very end. So it's this is a really important thing to understand because retention is kind of how platforms will calculate how much views
251:07
Speaker A
you will be gifted. So, if you get 100% retention, the videos are going to keep getting pushed out and platforms are going to keep pushing them out because platforms want one thing. They want people to stay on their platform or, you
251:18
Speaker A
know, social media as long as possible. Cuz why would a, you know, social media platform, a business push out content that keeps people away from them, right?
251:27
Speaker A
They want to push out the best quality stuff because quality will make them more money. And remember, these are not just social media platforms. These are businesses, you know, YouTube, Tik Tok, Instagram, Facebook, all of these social media platforms, they're all have one
251:41
Speaker A
goal in mind, and that is to make more money and get more users. And if they have more users and more people spending time on their app, then they will start making more money. And this is really important to understand because if they
251:53
Speaker A
are making more money off your videos, then you will make more money, too. So focus on actually outputting as much as you can and focus on the retention of your videos. So please keep this in mind. Retention understanding or just
252:07
Speaker A
understanding what retention is is going to be a really key lesson into getting the maximum amount of views possible.
252:13
Speaker A
And what I used to do is I used to upload, you know, the 2,000 videos, right? So going back over here when I used to upload all these 2,000 videos, I would focus on one thing that it was
252:22
Speaker A
retention. So I would make videos over and over and over again. I would edit them. I would cut them correctly. And I would try to perfect my videos to get the optimal retention possible. And if you don't believe me, um this is one of
252:34
Speaker A
my I mean here I'll just show you this real quick. I have made lots of different YouTube accounts. And then these aren't even all of them because I also have more underneath different Gmails. I just I don't have them all on
252:45
Speaker A
this this computer. But if we check out this channel, which is my Devon Talks channel, I used to upload a lot of freaking videos of all these different random things. And I was practicing on editing videos to try to get retention.
252:57
Speaker A
Like I did Minecraft edits. I did vlogs. I would do um random like life updates.
253:02
Speaker A
I would do uh Valerant edits. I would do Minecraft videos. And I would basically try I I did like a a documentary style video once. I did Fortnite edits. I I did everything. Everything. And the reason I did this was because I wanted
253:14
Speaker A
to learn about retention and I wanted to learn how can I make the best video possible without putting as much work into it because I remembered from a very young age that everyone is limited by time. And if we can conquer um the
253:26
Speaker A
amount of output we you know produce in this world compared to the amount of time we have then we can basically print endless money because we conquer the output time formula. So this means we would make more money. So going back to
253:38
Speaker A
this, when I started testing a retention heavily was when I started making videos like this where I would you title something like blue and then I would make the thumbnail red. And the reason I did this was because I wanted to test
253:50
Speaker A
clickthrough rate. But then when they clicked on it, I wanted to figure out how am I going to get people to stay on these videos, right? So all these videos were tests. And after I finished my last test video, I decided, okay, I'm going
254:00
Speaker A
to put effort into that real video. I made a documentary style video and then this video got 200,000 views. And of course, I didn't stick with this channel because I didn't really care about um you know, this was all always a test
254:10
Speaker A
channel for me. I always knew I was going to make something bigger. But um I realized you from a very young age that okay, I'm going to keep learning, learning, learning, and then after I crack the formula and understand how to
254:19
Speaker A
get retention, clickthrough rate, um good video ideas and video uh generation, then I'd be able to make the most amount of money I could possibly make. And that's how I got, you know, $20,000 last month and three or 30
254:32
Speaker A
million views because that's uh that was my formula, right? I was practicing. So remember, um practice does not make perfect, but practice will make you better than the rest of your competition. Practicing will help you be better than everyone else. So remember
254:46
Speaker A
that repetition is the most important thing to learn. The next thing I want you to understand is that different social media platforms require different things. For example, if you are are uploading on Instagram, then Instagram is a little different than Tik Tok,
254:58
Speaker A
YouTube, etc. If you are uploading on Instagram, the first thing you need to understand is that Instagram requires shares because Instagram is not a social media platform, is actually a messaging platform. So, if you're making videos, make sharable content because sharable
255:11
Speaker A
content will actually make you more views and in return get you more money. So, if you are making videos on Instagram, make sure it's something that people are going to share and feels organic with the platform. And this goes
255:21
Speaker A
for every other platform as well. Make sure you're doing research on what each platform requires. And I'll give you a little more detail about Tik Tok because there's a point system that is really important for you to understand. So, if
255:31
Speaker A
you guys don't know, Tik Tok recently released their point system for how videos are rated and actually pushed on their um algorithm. So, you can see here that you get one like equals one point.
255:41
Speaker A
If you get a comment, it's two points. Shares are three points. Watching the competition is four points. And re-watching is five points. And this makes a lot of sense because if you if you watch a video, that means you're
255:50
Speaker A
giving them more time on the platform and they're actually going to push this video out further. If they're watching till completion, you're keeping them on the platform. They're pushing it out more. Also, I've heard that shares and reposts are also the same thing. So, if
256:00
Speaker A
you repost and you're sharing, that's bringing more people for their platform. So, of course, they're going to push that out as well. Likes are the least important thing. For everyone asking, guys, make sure to like the video. Like,
256:08
Speaker A
likes do not matter on any platform on Instagram, YouTube, uh Tik Tok. Like, likes don't matter. Likes have never mattered. And uh maybe before likes used to matter but not anymore because I know I remember a lot of YouTubers would be
256:21
Speaker A
like oh like the video and you know guys subscribe like sub subscriptions subscribing liking videos it never ever pushes the algorithm out further. So if you guys are are a social media influencer or just a content creator in
256:32
Speaker A
general and you're asking your you know audience to like the video I promise you it does nothing for you. It would actually be better if you asked them to share the video instead because that actually boosts the algorithm more. So
256:42
Speaker A
for Tik Tok the most important thing is actually re-watching. So if you get someone to re-watch your video multiple times then you will um in turn get the most amount of boost. And then for YouTube the most important thing is AVD
256:55
Speaker A
or average watch time. So as we said before retention well retention is the most important thing for YouTube. So make sure you're focusing on getting the best retention possible for on this platform. But you know it matters for
257:06
Speaker A
all platforms but YouTube is the most heavily uh focused on retention. For example, I got a video that got 6 million views yesterday on one of my Tik Tok accounts. Um, I'll show it to you right now. It's called 0ero2 to herish.
257:18
Speaker A
So, you see here that this is the Tik Tok that I ran that got um 5 million views in like two days. This is the video right here. And this video uh did really really well for me. And you can
257:27
Speaker A
see here here I actually have a uh a thing right here where I can show you the retention of this video. And this got a 56% retention and average view duration of only 10 seconds. But the shares were 82,000.
257:40
Speaker A
82,000 people shared this video, which meant that people in general shared this and really liked it. So that's why this video in specifically went viral even though it was only a 12-second video. So even though this video didn't get like a
257:52
Speaker A
very high average view duration, it still um got, you know, pushed very heavily in the algorithm and it got it got 5.2 million views or 5.6 million views in two days. So, if that isn't proof enough that I know what I'm
258:05
Speaker A
talking about, then I don't know what to tell you. You know, the last thing I want you guys to understand is that if you guys are making videos and the videos suck, that's okay. The reason why most people aren't successful is because
258:15
Speaker A
when they upload their first one video, they quit. You know, 99% of people who upload their first YouTube video quit after uploading their first video. Like, that's actually a proven statistic, right? I don't know where it is, but I
258:25
Speaker A
heard it from Mr. Beast, so it's probably true. But make sure you guys are, you know, absorbing content that teaches you how to actually grow as a content creator or an influencer or as a video creator in general. If you're
258:37
Speaker A
running drop shipping products or whatever, doesn't really matter. The skill of content creation and video editing and just video creation is always going to be a skill that you need to understand because there's 8 billion people in the world and you can't reach
258:48
Speaker A
all of them by just talking or doing adverts. You have to do social media because one, it's free and two, they push out good content. So, if you learn how to make good content, you can get, you know, views like this where you get
258:58
Speaker A
five million views in a single day. Imagine if this was a product video. I would have made $20,000 yesterday if this was a product video. But I was just doing this because I just I kind of wanted to run something else because I
259:08
Speaker A
wanted to do some more clipping cuz I was a little bored, you know? But I'm telling you, stuff like this works. It works. And I'm telling you, as long as you learn how to do this stuff, you can
259:17
Speaker A
get views like this every single day. So, learn the skill of content creation. And please keep uploading more videos, guys. If you need anything, please just let me know. You guys can follow me on my Instagram. Uh, this is my Instagram
259:27
Speaker A
right here. You can message me if you have any questions. Maybe I'll respond, maybe I won't. Depends on if you guys are actually shooting me a good message.
259:33
Speaker A
But also, I do have a Discord if you guys want to join it. It's going to be in the description. That's all for this video. If you guys need anything, please just add me in the questions channel and
259:39
Speaker A
I'll definitely respond. All right, catch you guys later. I love you. Please subscribe if you haven't already. Um, because I'm trying to hit 100,000 subscribers. Uh, because I want a plaque. Be straight with you. I just want a plaque. All right, catch you guys
259:49
Speaker A
later. Have a rest of your day. I love you. Bye-bye. I want to talk about how I use Controversy to generate thousands of dollars every single day. Now, I get around 50 to 200 million views per month. And I know that's a really wide
259:59
Speaker A
range, but it really just depends on the month. And you know, if some videos go viral, some videos don't. It just depends. But I use Controversy to go viral every single time or almost every single time. So, I want to show you the
260:10
Speaker A
accounts I run, how I get these videos to go viral using Controversy, and how you can do it to start making money. So, let's get into it. So, this is the main drop shipping store I run. It's all
260:19
Speaker A
completely organic. It's called Tiny Truck. If you guys want to go look at it, you can. This is the Shopify revenue. We made around $20,000 in the past month. And this is the account. It has around 25,000 followers. I run this
260:29
Speaker A
account myself. And as you can see, we have two videos over 10 million views.
260:33
Speaker A
Actually, both over 11 million views now. And I use controversy to go viral in these videos. So, I'll show you it right now. So, you'll see it starts with the drink driving and then it falls down. Now, right away, that is some
260:43
Speaker A
controversy because when it's driving and it falls down, it gets the viewer engaged immediately thinking, "Oh, no.
260:48
Speaker A
the drink the drink just fell down. Now I say the viewer has to get up because they're angry because the drink is so far away. Then after that the trunk drives and tries to get away and then eventually it'll fall down the stairs.
260:59
Speaker A
Right? So, this is some very very harmless controversy I use in order to go viral consistently because instead of doing some kind of like high uh ticket controversy, like for example, doing some type of a racist joke or saying
261:12
Speaker A
something that's really offensive, I do something that's slightly funny and slightly little irritating that can put the viewer into the mindset of, hey, that's a little annoying, but also it's a little cute. When you're making videos like these, you have to think about how
261:24
Speaker A
you're going to get the viewer to get slightly irritated, but you also need to have a good payoff at the end. So, it needs to be funny. The two biggest ways to get sales while still being controversial is being funny while also
261:36
Speaker A
being a little irritating because that's what keeps the viewer watching. And there's going to be a select few people who, you know, buy from those people who get a little irritated because they may think, "Oh, okay, that's actually kind
261:45
Speaker A
of funny." So, I get on average around 500,000 views at minimum a day right now on this account. And um I'm getting around one to three sales per day right now. So maybe many people may think, okay, one to three sales and a 500,000
261:58
Speaker A
views a day is really awful. And yeah, but this remember this is also just a tiny truck. It's just a RC truck that I'm selling. And that's just one example of how I'm using controversy to sell a freaking RC truck. Now, how can you use
262:10
Speaker A
this method to apply to any product you want to make controversial? So, the first thing I would do is when people think of the word controversy, right, the first thing they think is, "Oh, I'm going to try to get the viewer angry,
262:22
Speaker A
right?" And the reason why angry controversy doesn't work well is because when someone is angry, they're not in the mindset to actually buy anything.
262:29
Speaker A
Because anger does not equal money, unfortunately. And the reason why is because when someone is angry, they have the mindset that you are their enemy.
262:38
Speaker A
and you want to come off as their friend, which is why I say going for the laughing route is usually better because using um controversy to create anger is really easy. You could literally just say, "Okay, I voted for Trump and then
262:49
Speaker A
all of a sudden you have uh 50% of your audience is angry and the other 50% is on your side, you know?" Or you could say uh something like, "Oh, I support Andrew Tate and then all of a sudden
262:58
Speaker A
everyone is against you, right? So anger is a really really good way to go viral, right? anger can go viral, but it's not a really a great way to actually make money. Now, the other type of controversy is something that's more
263:12
Speaker A
light-hearted and it's more annoying, right? So, annoyance does not really mean people aren't going to buy because people think that, oh, if I'm annoying them, they're not going to buy. But you have to come across as a friend because
263:24
Speaker A
I'm sure you got some friends who are a little annoying sometimes, but you're still their friend because, you know, you're their friend and oh, he's cool, you know, but he's a little annoying sometimes. I'm sure maybe you're maybe
263:32
Speaker A
that guy who's maybe a little annoying sometimes, but you're also their friend. So, if you're a little annoying, right?
263:37
Speaker A
And by annoying, I mean something like slightly irritating. For example, in this video, the drink fell down. That's what I would consider annoying because now the the person who's watching this is in the mindset of, "Oh, they have to
263:47
Speaker A
get up now because they're angry and now the truck is running away." So, like, if if you had a boyfriend or a girlfriend and they were going to deliver a drink to you and they dropped it and then
263:55
Speaker A
walked away, you would feel a little annoyed, but you're not going to break up with them. You'd be like, "Uh, oh my gosh, why would they do that?" You know?
264:01
Speaker A
So if you come ac across as slightly annoying, then you can make the video afterward, do something a little more funny. So you can see it kind of falls down and then all of a sudden it's more funny. So if you go to annoying to
264:13
Speaker A
funny, then you're going to convert more people because they're going to have a more positive mindset. So when you have a positive mindset, you're in also the mindset of buying things because positive mindsets equals more money. If you can convince the viewer that if you,
264:26
Speaker A
you know, if they buy your your product, they're going to get this slightly funny um emotion that you're selling to them, then they're going to be able to buy it.
264:38
Speaker A
Sorry. Sorry. And that's the reason why annoying doesn't work because you put them in a negative mindset. And when they have negative mindsets, then all of a sudden they're not going to buy.
264:47
Speaker A
That's why I don't like doing those like cheap storytelling where it's like, "Oh, my sister, my sister's husband's boyfriend uh bought me this." It's like it's just confusing. And when you confuse them and when it's like irritating and it's it makes them angry,
264:58
Speaker A
not annoyed, there's a very thin line in between this. And you have to be able to master this as an organic content creator to master the art of being making them angry and making them annoyed because this is always going to
265:10
Speaker A
result in a positive as long as you do it correctly. And this will always result in a negative. No matter what you do, if you make the viewer angry, they're not going to buy. Period. Now, the problem with this is finding winning
265:18
Speaker A
products. because some products you can't really do this strategy of like becoming being more annoying than being more funny. But luckily, I have a solution for you. So, this is an app I created recently called Shop Sniper. So,
265:29
Speaker A
what Shop Sniper is is basically like a Shopify analysis tool where it'll analyze the product, store revenue, and a ton of other features which I'm going to show you now. So, I'm sure a lot of you guys have seen like the Tik Tok
265:38
Speaker A
burner method where you go on Tik Tok, you start scrolling, then you see products. For example, like this one right here. It's like this little camera necklace, right? If we clicked on this right here, you'll see they have like
265:47
Speaker A
8,000 followers. By the way, I've never seen this account before. And um so most popular, they have lots of videos that are getting doing really, really well.
265:53
Speaker A
And if we click on their store, we'll be able to see that their store is still active. So what we would do to actually figure out the store revenue of the short store is we just go to Shop
266:01
Speaker A
Sniper. We click on the extension right here. It'll analyze Shopify, the Tik Tok, everything. And then within seconds, it's going to give us the data for everything on the store. the revenue, the sourcing of the product, the conversion rates, the total order
266:14
Speaker A
value, um the amount of products they have on the store, the products, uh the product probability store. So, like look at this. This is this is the app that I um made myself with my dev. And let's see, they're making $15,000 right now
266:27
Speaker A
across all their videos. 142 orders, an average order value of $106. They've gotten around 7 million views. They got a product probability score of 74. And then here's the open market research.
266:37
Speaker A
This is an amazing feature. So, we'll see here that this store that is getting um 7 million views across all their Tik Toks doesn't even have an Instagram yet.
266:45
Speaker A
And this is one of the best things about the open market research feature on Shop Sniper because you can use the videos that they're making here. For example, this video that got 2 million views. We can use this video and then all of a
266:56
Speaker A
sudden we can literally just swipe it and then upload it to um Instagram. I'm sure you guys have heard like the Instagram swoop method or maybe the niche growth method. It's it's the same thing. But if you basically just took
267:05
Speaker A
their videos and then uploaded to Instagram using Shop Sniper, you'd be able to see if they had an open market.
267:10
Speaker A
And then here are all the products as well with of course the Amazon and AliExpress shipping to it. So yeah, this is a really really great tool that I made. If you guys are interested in getting it, it's going to be linked in
267:19
Speaker A
the um description. We got like 20 people who have used it so far and I'm limiting the amount of people who can uh use it to 200 while we're still in uh the uh first launch. We did the beta
267:29
Speaker A
testing like two weeks ago. In my eight years of experience and 26 billion views generated, I can confidently say the single fastest way to improve the amount of views you're getting per video and how much money you make per video is through mastering the
267:43
Speaker A
art of retention. And sure, you can optimize for a swipe through ratio or even call to actions with comments or likes. But if you don't optimize your attention, you will not be able to achieve billions of views per month like
267:54
Speaker A
we're doing right now. This month alone, we've generated 1.8 billion views across all the YouTube channels we're running right now. So, in this video, I'm going to break down how to optimize your retention, what retention you need to
268:04
Speaker A
hit, and how to actually hit it consistently. And then I'll show you how to apply it to any video in any niche to optimize to make the most amount of money possible. So, this video got $123 million views. We generated around
268:16
Speaker A
$3,600 from this single short. You can see here at the very bottom that this video has a 34 second uh length of video and a 32se second average view duration. So retention is calculated by taking the average view duration divided by the
268:32
Speaker A
length of video and then calculating that into a percentage. So 32 divided by 34 would be a 94% retention. You can also see here that the graph is fairly flat throughout the entire thing. We lost around 6% in this area right here.
268:47
Speaker A
But let me just tell you the secret sauce right now. If you want to actually get videos to consistently go viral, you should be aiming for 100 plus% retention. Not 100%. above 100% retention. So, for example, let's say
269:00
Speaker A
your video is 32 seconds long. You should be aiming for a 33 second average view duration. There are a couple reasons for this. One, because YouTube cares about people staying on their platform as long as possible. So, if you
269:11
Speaker A
make videos that are keeping people on their platform longer by them re-watching your video, your retention is going to increase and YouTube will push out your videos further. Now, if we go to this video here, this is a video
269:20
Speaker A
we started uploading on a new channel. It already has 48 million views within only a couple days of running this channel. You can see we have $300 cuz we just got monetized. If you scroll down here, we have a 21 second average view
269:33
Speaker A
duration divided by a 24 second length of video. Now again, take your average view duration 21 divided by your length of video 24 and you should get around 87% retention. Now you may think that 48 million views is a lot, which it is, but
269:48
Speaker A
I want to be aiming for 100 million views every single video. And if you want to be aiming for the most amount of money possible, then you should be aiming for longer length of videos with higher retentions. You can even see here
269:58
Speaker A
that in this video we had a very big dip at the end. Also, if you see big dips like this, I'll give you a little hack right now. If you go to your YouTube studio and then click on the editor
270:07
Speaker A
button, you should actually be able to go to trim and cut and you'll be able to trim the actual length of the video. So, for example, this video here, we had 3 seconds at the very end where we left
270:18
Speaker A
off. I would take off 3 seconds from this video, cut it off a little bit early, and then click on save. After you click on save, it'll take around four minutes. Then it'll be uploaded basically again and pushed to YouTube
270:28
Speaker A
again with a better retention because the average length of your video divided by the length of your video, the length of your video is going to be shorter.
270:36
Speaker A
And if the length of your video is shorter and the average view duration stays the same, your retention increases. Keep in mind, not everyone has this feature on their YouTube studio. If the video is a little bit older, it's kind of harder to get this.
270:47
Speaker A
If it's a newer video, you do have access to this. Now, why do some videos that have basically the same retention, for example, this video has 20 seconds divided by a 23 second video, it's basically the same amount of retention.
270:58
Speaker A
Why do some videos get more views than others? For example, this video only got 17 million views compared to the other video that got nearly 50 million views.
271:07
Speaker A
This is because viewer intent. You know how we talked about how YouTube cares about people staying on their platform as long as possible? Well, they also care about the viewer being satisfied.
271:16
Speaker A
So, if someone watches a video all the way through, but they're not quote unquote satisfied, then YouTube will not push out this video further. Now, how do you quantify being satisfied? In YouTube's eyes, being satisfied is just an emotion. So, if you can make the
271:29
Speaker A
viewer feel something, angry, sad, happy, upset, whatever it is, if you make them feel that emotion, YouTube will see them as satisfied because an emotion is being felt. As long as they're feeling anything other than bored, YouTube will push out your video
271:43
Speaker A
further because emotions generate income. Now, this video got 36 million views. It's only 11 seconds long and generated $1,500 for us. So, if I scroll down here, you're going to see that our swipe ratio was very high, but the
271:57
Speaker A
average view duration was 12 seconds. And if we hover over our attention here, you'll see it starts at 193%. That basically means almost everyone who watched this video re-watched it a second time. When you see something like this and the very end of your video is
272:12
Speaker A
at 100%. This is a very good sign. And I guarantee if this video was, you know, 32 seconds instead of 11 seconds, this video would have done phenomenal if it kept the same retention, it could have potentially gotten 300 million plus
272:24
Speaker A
views and generated a whole lot of income. And remember, the niche of your video matters as well. For example, this video got 16 million views, generated us $1,000. And the average view duration is 32 seconds, and the average length of
272:37
Speaker A
video is 34 seconds. But you can notice here the retention is much more wobbly in the video. Now, the reason why this happens is because as the video gets longer, you will see micro dips in your retention. In order to fix this, I
272:50
Speaker A
recommend going back into your video, click on wherever the dip is and re-watch this video over and over again until you can have a reason of why this video actually dipped. If you don't have a reason why it dipped, you're doing
273:01
Speaker A
something wrong, cuz there's always a reason why there is a dip or a micro dip. Always. Here's another great example. This video got 46 million views. We just got monetized on this channel. So, unfortunately, we miss a lot of the income we would have made
273:13
Speaker A
here. But you can see the average view duration is 33 seconds and the average length of video is 33 seconds. This means we have 100% retention. We actually started at 178% because everyone who watched the video watched it all the way through and then
273:25
Speaker A
rewatched it a little bit as well. This is because this was a very engaging video. You can see that we only had really one dip here and then a micro dip here. Everything else was very flat throughout the entire rest of the video.
273:37
Speaker A
Now for our last example, I'm going to show this video here. This video got 159 million views and generated us nearly $12,000 in pure AdSense revenue. And you're going to notice something really funny about this retention. So, this
273:49
Speaker A
video is actually a minute and 1 second long. We had a 47 second average duration and a swipe ratio of 80.3%.
273:56
Speaker A
And you can see we had a spike up, which is something you usually don't see often. Then we had a flatline drop here.
274:03
Speaker A
And it basically did this the rest of the video. Now, why did this video get pushed out and make so much money even though the retention does not look that good? Well, normally if you see a retention jump up like this, this means
274:15
Speaker A
someone scrolled back in the video and watched that part again to make sure they didn't miss anything. And I'm going to give you guys a little bit of sauce here. This is actually a ranking video.
274:25
Speaker A
I'm not going to leak the channel or the video itself, but is a ranking video.
274:28
Speaker A
And the first clip was so interesting, a lot of people went back to watch it a second time. Now, because so many people came to watch the video a second time and they basically rewatched it here, even though the average view duration is
274:39
Speaker A
only 47 divided by 1 minute and 1 second, which if we do the math, it's only 47 divided by 61 seconds, which is a 77% retention. But because of this rewatch here in the very beginning of the video, it exponentially increased
274:53
Speaker A
the amount of YouTube is getting. Also, this is a very high engagement video. And in the next video, we're going to be talking about engagement. And keep in mind, this is only day seven of the View Maximizing Boot Camp. We have an entire
275:02
Speaker A
boot camp for free on YouTube. If you go to our channel and then playlist, you'll see the View Maximizing Boot Camp where we upload every single sauce and information I know about all the channels we're running right now. You
275:13
Speaker A
can see here that I'm running a buttload of channels. As you can see right here, we are helping a lot of students as well just get an insane amount of income from just starting their own YouTube channel or scaling to multiple channels as I'm
275:23
Speaker A
doing right now. We're running 36 channels. So, if you want to get insane results like this and get anywhere from $10 to $12,000 per YouTube short you're uploading. I mean, it's an insane amount of income. We're generating close to
275:34
Speaker A
$115,000 in revenue this month through AdSense. So, everyone knows what view is. So, if you've uploaded videos on YouTube before, you've probably encountered some type of view jail, right? Whether that's zero view jail, 30,000 view jail, 50,000 view jail, 100,000, a million, 10
275:52
Speaker A
million, or maybe some of you guys have even encountered 100 million view jail. So, in this video, I want to explain how to break out of every single view jail with YouTube shorts. I'm going to break down every single type of view there is,
276:04
Speaker A
why view jails happen, and also just a solution for each one of them. So, if you're stuck at any part of your YouTube journey, you can go to that part of this video, understand why you were stuck there, and then just fix it. Because I'm
276:16
Speaker A
making this video for you guys. It's going to be a full course. I still recommend watching the entire video all the way through regardless because there's going to be so much information here because maybe on one channel you
276:25
Speaker A
may be doing really well. Maybe you're stuck in 1 million Jill, but another channel you may be stuck in 30 in a different niche. This information is going to apply to every single niche. It doesn't matter if you're in ranking
276:33
Speaker A
commentary or you're doing Zaxi Films animations. It's going to apply because the principles of YouTube apply um to every single channel that we run. If you don't know, my name is Devon Senath. I run 38 YouTube automated shorts channels
276:45
Speaker A
and we have generated $120,000 last month in YouTube AdSense revenue. You can see here, here are all the channels that we're running right now. And we also have a lot of students that have also hit these amazing results. For
276:56
Speaker A
example, like last month, our one of our best students hit $88,000 in a single month. All right. Well, let's get into first zero view jail. So the reason why zero view jail happens is usually because you're having a trust score
277:07
Speaker A
issue. And that is the main reason why a lot of people get stuck in zero view in the first place. So a lot of you guys watching this is for you right now. If you have a trust score issue, the first
277:16
Speaker A
thing I recommend is going to your settings, going to channel and looking to see what country of residence you're in. I have said before that, you know, select whatever country you're in. I've actually changed this since then because
277:27
Speaker A
YouTube has been pushing a lot of different features to United States audiences, including United States channels. So I recommend switching your country of residence to the United States. This can have a positive impact on your reach and overall there's a
277:39
Speaker A
higher chance that you can actually get pushed to the algorithm further if you change this to United States. The next thing is go to feature eligibility. Make sure all of these are on. If this one last one right here isn't on, it's going
277:51
Speaker A
to be harder for you to get pushed to the algorithm. Lastly, go to upload default and make sure go to advanced settings and category. Make sure you're in entertainment here as well. All right. So, this is the main reason why
278:02
Speaker A
people get stuck in zero view jail. Also, if you're stealing people's content, you're doing any type of sexual content, you're doing any type of content that has any type of abuse in it, or you're violating uh any type of
278:10
Speaker A
YouTube ser um terms of service, you will get suppressed. And that just happens because YouTube doesn't want to push out stuff. They have an AI that basically categorizes these contents beforehand. Now, in the unlucky chance that you've done all of this and you
278:21
Speaker A
still are in zero beauty deal, I recommend watching our 1h hour trust score video, understanding how to increase your trust score. It's going to be right linked in the description. So, if you want to watch um that course
278:30
Speaker A
right after this one, then I recommend doing that. It's for free on YouTube, just like the rest of our content. Um the next thing is 30K view jail. Now, a lot of you guys who are a little bit
278:39
Speaker A
more experienced in YouTube have experienced 30K view jail. And what's crazy is it never used to be 30K view.
278:45
Speaker A
It actually used to be 10K view jail, but because YouTube now qualifies viewers based off of um just views and not engagements like before, um now it looks like 30k view jail. So this is really anywhere from 10 to 15k view jail
278:58
Speaker A
if you're kind of qualified viewers. Now how do we break out of 30k view jail?
279:02
Speaker A
Cuz this is probably the one that most you guys are stuck in. I see a lot of students who are joining our program are stuck in 30k view jail. So let's kind of go over that now. Now typically when
279:09
Speaker A
you're stuck in 30k view jail, it's usually one of the most basic metrics that you need to improve. For example, maybe your AVD to LOV ratio is not good.
279:17
Speaker A
Maybe, for example, like this short here, your swipe ratio isn't good. And this typically happens because you just need to improve the quality of your videos. So for 30K view jail, the things I recommend doing is making sure you
279:27
Speaker A
improve your swipe ratio, right? So look at your competitors, see what they're doing in their hooks, see if you could replicate what they're doing, and then reiterate and do their type of style to increase your swipe ratio. Look at your
279:38
Speaker A
average view duration divided by your length of video, right? This typically should be above 100%. If it's not above 100%, then you're not in a good spot right now to get pushed to the algorithm. For example, let's say you're
279:51
Speaker A
uploading videos and let's say your average view duration is 24 seconds on a 32 second video, right? So, if we actually do 24 divided by 32, you guys are going to notice it's like 75%.
280:02
Speaker A
Right? And that's not where we want to be. We want to make sure our AVD divided by LOV or average duration divided by length of video is at 100%. If it's at 100%, YouTube's basically going to quant um qualify our video as, okay, this is a
280:13
Speaker A
high quality video. Everyone watching is staying all the way through and then they'll push out the video further. And lastly, you need to look at your regular versus new viewer ratio. So, this is a stat that I don't see a lot of people
280:24
Speaker A
talk about, but if you look at your audience, right, and you actually look at the watch behavior, you will notice how much of your new viewers are watching, how much of your casual viewers are watching, and how much of
280:33
Speaker A
your regular viewers are watching. So, for example, for this video here, we have a 69 to um 31%, right? So, 69% new viewers and 30% 31% casual viewers. So, what does this exactly mean? I recommend you guys try to keep this at 5050
280:49
Speaker A
always, right? So, if you're, you know, in 30K view jail and you're not at 50 regular um viewers watching and 50 new viewers watching, then you are going to be in a pretty not the best spot. And the reason why is because if you have a
281:08
Speaker A
50% casual viewer percentage of watching your channel, you're more likely to get pushed to the algorithm because your audience is already built. This goes into building your monthly audience, but that's typically a more of a problem in around a 100,000 to a million view jail,
281:21
Speaker A
which we're going to get to later in this video. Another thing that you guys need to understand when you're stuck in 30k view jail, because there's a lot of different information to go over here, is making sure you understand what niche
281:32
Speaker A
you're in. For example, like there's this thing called a TAM or total addressable market of your niche, right?
281:37
Speaker A
So, you need to understand what your TAM is. The best way to identify your TAM is understanding what is the biggest competitors in your niche and what you could do to basically quantify how much audience are they actually reaching. So
281:51
Speaker A
for example, let's say I was in I don't know ranking the best sound headphones, right? So like ranking the best sound headphones. That was my entire channel.
281:59
Speaker A
Or let's say it was just about audio in general, right? So I'm guessing there's a sub community of people on the internet who care really about audio.
282:07
Speaker A
Care really about headphones. They want the best headphones possible. So if there is a person or I guess a group of community like this, which there definitely is. Let's say the TAM was maybe a hundred million right now. How
282:19
Speaker A
would I quantify this? What I would do is I would find my top competitor, see what their monthly views is. You can just use anything like Vid IQ or you can use NextL to just basically just look at
282:31
Speaker A
their their stats and you can see what their monthly audience in the past 28 days of views is, right? So if their past 28 days of views is 100 million, then that's what the to um total addressable moral market is for that
282:44
Speaker A
specific niche, right? So then you can set your bar of 100 million is what I need to be aiming for if I want to really reach everyone in this niche.
282:53
Speaker A
There's no such thing as saturation. There's just competition. And this is another problem I see a lot of people including my students when they enter our program is they have this kind of fear or generalization idea that you
283:05
Speaker A
know I'm stuck in 30k view jail because the niche I'm in is oversaturated. Um or you know for example my competitor's videos are higher quality than mine.
283:14
Speaker A
It's not usually necessarily true. All right. Sometimes the reason why you're stuck in this is because you're just not understanding your TAM uh properly. And the other thing you need to understand is um your customer persona, right? Or
283:28
Speaker A
really your viewer persona. So we call this um the IVP. So this stands for ideal viewer persona. And you need to understand what your IVP is. 30K view jail is probably the most crucial view to break out of because once you break
283:41
Speaker A
out of there, it's small things that make a big difference, right? And it's really different because for example being stuck in 30k view jail is much harder surprisingly to break out of than 10 million view jail or 100 million view
283:54
Speaker A
jail because the things you have to do in these type of scenarios here it's much more difficult. There's a lot of different steps you need to go into in order to break out of these views here.
284:05
Speaker A
So we'll go into that a little bit later in the video. Right. So, if we're really trying to break out of the 30k view jail, the first thing you guys um well, not really the first, but the best thing
284:14
Speaker A
you guys need to understand as well is your IVP. So, what's an IVP, right?
284:18
Speaker A
Let's say we're doing this sound again, right? Because like let's say someone's watching videos on the best sound quality headphones, right? So, our ideal customer is probably someone who one has used headphones before. It's probably someone that is interested in technology
284:35
Speaker A
in general, right? It's someone who probably has some money, which means RPMs are higher, by the way, for this niche, right? It's probably someone who maybe plays games or listens to music often. And you will kind of notice I'm
284:48
Speaker A
building a persona around this, you know, subniche that I'm trying to get into here. And the reason why is because my goal here when I'm stuck in 30k view jail is break down every single thing that could possibly be going wrong with
285:02
Speaker A
my videos and understanding what I could do to improve it. A big portion of this is understanding your IBP because if you understand your IVP, you can make the videos curated toward them. For example, let's say you're trying to viewax and
285:15
Speaker A
you're making ranking videos, right? Ranking the trampoline moments. You would think like, "Oh, okay. Well, who does that apply to?" It applies to everyone. That's why it's called maxing, right? Because girls can watch this, guys can watch this, grandmas can watch
285:25
Speaker A
this, babies can watch this, right? Doesn't matter what language you speak, that's view maxing, right? If we're trying to just break out of a 30K video on a targeted niche, then understand your IVP. If you don't have a targeted
285:36
Speaker A
niche and you're just going super broad, for example, like ranking, one of our top students again hit $88,000 last month in ranking. Um, was really ranking commentary with personality driven aspects, which we'll go over later as well. Then you really need to make sure
285:49
Speaker A
you understand your IVP properly. Okay, now let's go to 50,000 view jail cuz it's a little bit different, but it kind of works on the same aspects of 30K view jail, but this is assuming you already are breaking 30K view jail. Now,
286:02
Speaker A
typically if you have a 50,000 um a 50,000 view jail, that is meaning that you already are reaching some audience, right? So, this is good here, right? You're reaching some audience.
286:14
Speaker A
Maybe you've tapped into a slight subniche. Maybe your video quality is good and you're getting some reoccurring viewers in, right? Maybe your new viewers, for example, like this video here, if we look at our audience here, the new viewers is a little bit above
286:26
Speaker A
50%, but it's not at 99.9 like you will see for some of your videos if you were just getting into the YouTube, right?
286:32
Speaker A
You can see the casual viewer for this video right here, it's 23.1%. Now, typically when we're stuck in 50k view jail, it means YouTube basically went through a test and rebalance. And this is where we're going to get into
286:43
Speaker A
understanding how tests and rebalances work. This is called your TB testing period. and also understand the 8 to 12 day testing window. Right? So what are these two things and how can we use these to our advantage to make sure we
286:57
Speaker A
are scaling on YouTube 50k view jail. Right? Usually when we are in 50k view jail, it's because again we have a high audience but we're failing these two things. This is how YouTube really pushes out videos in the first place. So
287:09
Speaker A
you guys have probably seen this at some point in one of your videos where your videos basically climb like this, right?
287:14
Speaker A
It basically goes like bam bam bam bam and then it flat lines right like a staircase to a flat line. So typically when this happens is you guys understand what each one of these things are right.
287:28
Speaker A
So for example the time between this one and this one this one and this one this one and this one and this one and this one here.
287:39
Speaker A
These are all testing periods. So typically this means that YouTube is testing different audiences. For example, in this blue one here, YouTube tested one audience and it passed, right? So we get a little green check mark here. Good job.
287:54
Speaker A
Then YouTube tested this one here. It passed. It passed here. It passed here. It passed here. Then YouTube tried testing this last one over here, but it failed. And the reason why it failed is because you did something wrong. Maybe
288:09
Speaker A
it was in your hook. Maybe it was in something you said wrong. Maybe it offended a certain group of people and YouTube wants to be able to push your video out to the widest audience possible. And maybe either your video
288:21
Speaker A
was only reaching the t um the TAM, right? Maybe you reached your TAM for that specific video or you know, maybe you didn't correct metric. For example, if we actually look at this um video right here that got 50,000 views. If you
288:34
Speaker A
look at the engagement, we were at 74%. And this is where understanding KPIs is very important, right? So, typically if you're in 50k view jail, it means that you're not really hitting the swipe ratios that you need to hit. I recommend
288:47
Speaker A
going above 81.1%. This is like the sweet spot that I have seen worked well. This is not applied to every niche. I've had videos that have gotten pushed to hundreds of millions of people and not hit this percentage,
288:59
Speaker A
right? But this is like the gold standard. If you want to break out of 50k view jail, you should be aiming for an 81.1% swipe ratio. The reason why is because when YouTube sees that your stats are healthy, guess what? They're
289:12
Speaker A
going to push it out to wider audience. And guess what you'll notice as well? As you get more views, your swipe ratio starts decreasing because YouTube trusts you more to push to a wider audience.
289:20
Speaker A
Typically, if you're getting 81.1% swipe ratio, it means you're in a sub audience. For example, ranking the best dog moments. Like I bet you people who like cats don't really care to watch dogs as much as they like to watch cats.
289:31
Speaker A
So the dog video if it gets pushed to cat audience swipe ratio will be slightly lower. But if it was ranking the best animal moments, everyone likes animals. Swipe ratio may be lower but the views overall will be higher. I hope
289:43
Speaker A
that makes sense. But basically it means bigger idea, lower swipe ratio, more views. Smaller idea, higher swipe ratio, still a decent amount of views. Also, when you have a smaller niche, usually you get better RPMs. This is also
289:58
Speaker A
depending on if you have English commentary, which we're going to get over in a second. Okay, so that's kind of explaining 50K view jail. But there is one other thing you need to understand. Usually, when you're in 50K
290:08
Speaker A
view, you've kind of understand the basics of a fewaxing, but you haven't utilized it to your full capacity. And this is where understanding how ranking works is very important. So, if you're stuck in 50k view jail, here's some
290:20
Speaker A
actual steps for you right now. go into your videos or whatever niche you're in and try doing ranking. For example, let's say you're in the basketball niche and you're making, I don't know, like videos about basketball instead of just
290:31
Speaker A
making a specific video about each individual player or crazy moments that have happened. And this applies to anything, football, racing, maybe you're doing bike content, maybe you're doing police commentary, maybe you're doing ranking, right? What you could do is you
290:44
Speaker A
can rank the best videos that you've uploaded or just videos in general and change the format of your video because the format matters a lot for shorts. For example, like let's say we're doing um the biking niche, right? If you're doing
290:56
Speaker A
the biking niche, instead of like doing a commentary over one crazy crash, do ranking the top five craziest crashes caught on camera, right? And then put in parenthesis like no one was harmed in the video. And then just do like one,
291:10
Speaker A
two, three, four, five, right? Start with three, four, five, and then go two and one. And then that way when you do that, it puts the video in a different format and makes it more watchable for the average person. So if I'm not a
291:21
Speaker A
biker, I can still watch the video because it's generally just an interesting video, right? Changing formats helps a lot with breaking out of 50k jail. And this also applies to 100k view jail as well, but it's a little bit
291:34
Speaker A
different um because on 100k view jail, well, there's other things you need to do. We'll go into that in a second, but formats is very important. I recommend trying the ranking format out. It it works really well for me and a lot of
291:43
Speaker A
other of my students as well. And um you know we a lot of people scale up that way. And I kid you not, a lot of our students right now are also using the same stuff I'm telling you right now in
291:53
Speaker A
our program. And they are just hitting insane. For example, like 6.2 million 48 hour mark. Here's a 1.4 million view day. 300 million views in the past 90 days. 110 million views in the past 90 days. One of our students even hit a
292:06
Speaker A
100red million views on a single video just a couple days ago. Right. So, it's kind of an example like 44 million, $40 mark. So, these type of like strats, like it's not just strats that I'm just pulling out of thin air. I've done this
292:17
Speaker A
for my own channels and applied this to hundreds of students that have joined our program and then gotten successful making tens of thousands of dollars because the strats just work, right?
292:26
Speaker A
These are evergreen ideas. Basically, if you understand the concepts behind YouTube Shorts and what YouTube wants and how to fix it, this information is pretty much it's timeless, right? you can watch this video in a year from now
292:36
Speaker A
and it's probably going to be the same thing because YouTube wants the same thing always when it comes to the basics of content. They want three things really, right? They want, you know, videos that basically provide value on
292:47
Speaker A
their platform. They want to make as much money as possible and they want to keep the viewers satisfied. That's really all they want, right? So, if you understand that, it's much easier to break out of every view. I think about,
292:55
Speaker A
you know, these videos here like a business owner, right? That's how we're able to get videos. Like, for example, we got 200 million views on a single video. Roll those for you real quick, right? The reason why we're able to do
293:05
Speaker A
stuff like this is because I think like a business owner. All right. I don't think like a YouTuber like how you guys though because I understand this game and how it works. All right. Now, and the other thing I want to talk about for
293:16
Speaker A
50K as well is understanding comment ratios. And this is going to be more important later, but understanding to at least try to do some type of subtle CTAs is really important. So, if you guys don't know what a subtle CTA is, I've
293:27
Speaker A
talked about this in other videos, but basically a subtle CTA is, it's really just understanding like how to get someone to engage with a video. For example, like don't be so obvious.
293:38
Speaker A
People hate being told what to do. Like if I told you, guys, comment if this video was helpful, right? Like a lot of you are going to be like, "Man, you." They're not going to want to do it, right? You're not going to want to
293:49
Speaker A
comment because people hate being told what to do, right? But if I'm just like talking like this, it's like, "Hey, if this video is helpful, let me know." You know, like people are gonna be like, "Hey, bro, this is really helpful. Thank
293:58
Speaker A
you so much." Same thing applies for shorts, bro. If you guys are just making videos and just like, "Yo, was this funny, man? Like, let me know, guys." And people will be like, "Dude, that was hilarious, right?" Because people
294:08
Speaker A
understand like they want to be treated like a person. When I when you guys talk to viewers like they're a fan or they're a customer or something like that, they push back. But if you treat someone, right, like, "Hey, you're my buddy,
294:20
Speaker A
bro." like they come toward you and you can utilize that to your advantage to get a lot of comments. You can utilize that. I mean, we've had some videos before that's gotten like tens of thousands of comments on only a couple
294:31
Speaker A
million views, right? We've gotten like one or two% um you know, comment ratio to view ratios on our videos before because we understand how subtle CTAs work. So, understanding how to do subtle CTAs will help you break out of 50k view
294:43
Speaker A
jail. That's going to be everything from 50k view jail. Now, let's go to 100K view jail because a lot of you guys are stuck in this 100K view jail as well.
294:51
Speaker A
Now, if you're stuck here, it means you're probably already making some moola, right? So, you're probably at a point now where maybe you're looking to hire some editors. And yo, quick tip for you guys. Something I have learned from
295:02
Speaker A
a lot of people in my program who are stuck in 100k view jail. A lot of times it's an editor problem, bro. Like, I'm not joking. And I'm going to go into like how to break out of it in a second,
295:12
Speaker A
but this applies to you guys who already are making some money. Um, so if you're making money, listen up. If you have editors who are viewing, you know, videos for you, but you're consistently stuck at 100K views, it means your
295:24
Speaker A
editors are probably following a template and you need to break the template to improve the video further, right? You should always have the mindset of I'm going to make this video better. Then I'm okay here, right? And what's crazy here is a lot of people
295:37
Speaker A
think this is good, right? Because right now, if you're getting 100K views per video, maybe you're upload a couple times a day, you may be getting a couple million views a month, right? And people see that and they're like, "Oh, okay.
295:47
Speaker A
It's good, bro. I'm getting a couple million views a month." But in reality, it's only a couple hundred bucks, bro.
295:51
Speaker A
It's only a couple hundred bucks on shorts, right? I'm getting billions of views a month. I had a two billion view month. And then last month, we had a 1.2 billion view month, right? And two billion view month before that. So, like
296:02
Speaker A
I'm telling you guys, like if you want to make this the same money that I'm making, like 120 grand a month, you need to be able to understand that these views don't really equate to dollars, right? We need to get a lot of views to
296:14
Speaker A
equate to a lot of dollars. So, this is where mindset starts coming into play and understanding how to think like a business owner and an operator, especially with editors. So, if you are talking to editors and you're having a
296:25
Speaker A
problem with your editors, right, I recommend looking at your competitors who are doing the best. analyze their videos. Like, literally do a split screen on your monitor, right? Look at their videos. Look at your videos and be like, "Okay, what am I doing wrong
296:38
Speaker A
here?" Right? What are they doing that that they're not? For example, like one of my students, he's in the Minecraft meme commentary niche, and he's making videos on like basically Minecraft gameplay in the background and a meme going over it, right? Our top competitor
296:49
Speaker A
was doing the exact same thing. The difference was the gameplay um that he was using the my student had shaders and then the cop competitor was not using shaders. I told my student, "Yo, just take off the shaders and let's try it
297:01
Speaker A
again. Let's run it back. There's also some things you need to fix with a swipe ratio. Like, you need to make sure there's more inflections in your voice.
297:07
Speaker A
Just do these two things. I bet you'll see the big difference." Next video, he made a $2,000 video, bro. Like, that video grew to $2,000 after he made that change. $2,000 on a single video, right?
297:19
Speaker A
And that's how quickly you will see a difference. It's just small things, right? And as I get more and more in depth with these larger view jails that you guys will probably be in, right, it's going to be smaller things that
297:32
Speaker A
make a big difference, which is why I recommend you guys watch this video all the way through, right? Because if you understand the small things make a big difference. 30K view jail is going to be a cakewalk, right? Because then you're
297:42
Speaker A
going to be like, "Ah, bro, I'm at 10 million views. I'm not sure how to figure this out. You know, maybe I can like go help learn from someone else.
297:48
Speaker A
Maybe I can analyze this. Maybe I can try this." and you're going to be in a creative mindset rather than like a fearful mindset. All right? So, understanding editors small changes.
297:56
Speaker A
Now, the other thing is you guys also need to make sure if you're stuck in 30K view or sorry, 100K view jail that you're uploading multiple times a day, right? This is where like uploading multiple times a day comes into play. I
298:07
Speaker A
hope at this point you are uploading multiple times a day. Um, but I recommend if you're at 100K views and let's say, let's say, for example, your 48 hour mark is at 150K views. Um, you should be uploading or for 48 hour mark,
298:22
Speaker A
you should be uploading five times per day. And for some of you, that's really easy.
298:30
Speaker A
For others, um, it's not right. Five times per day. And the reason why is because some of you make really high quality content. Great. If you're making high quality content, you better be making money so you can outsource some
298:40
Speaker A
of that to basically duplicate yourself, right? This where editors comes into play as well. You should be using editors to dupe yourself, right? Make a clone of you. And I made an entire video on training editors. Like that's another
298:51
Speaker A
course that we have on our channel if you wanted to watch it. It's going to be just like it's actually the video right before this one. Um, but I recommend, you know, understanding how to train your editors properly and duplicating
299:01
Speaker A
yourself, right? Because you don't want to be editing these videos forever. Trust me, editing five videos a day is awful on one channel. Imagine doing that on multiple channels, bro. Like, at that point, you just have a glorified job and
299:11
Speaker A
you don't want a job. You want to be a business owner. You want to do YouTube automation to make money on the side where you can go to the Bahamas and do whatever you want, right? You want to be
299:18
Speaker A
able to buy the car and not have to work, right? And that's the beauty of this business model, but you need to be able to do the hard work first of implementing editors and outsourcing correctly. So, make sure you're
299:28
Speaker A
uploading five times per day. If you're not, then I don't recommend, you know, you guys even look past this further.
299:35
Speaker A
Um, the other thing you guys need to understand as well is like just because you're uploading five videos a day, if they're crap content, you will stay stuck and you may even revert back to 50 or 30k view jail, right? You may go even
299:46
Speaker A
further back if the videos are lower quality. The reason why is because you have to stay consistent with quality. If you don't, you will continuously reverse back or stay in the same spot. If you want to increase, quality has to
299:58
Speaker A
increase as well, right? Always be thinking of ways you can improve your videos. Always be analyzing your competitors. This is more of a mindset thing and understanding how to break out of this. And another thing as well, make
300:07
Speaker A
sure if you're uploading five videos a day, make sure to do two hours apart between each upload. You can also schedule the post if you want to test it. I've noticed that scheduling for some channels works and for other
300:19
Speaker A
channels don't work, right? So, like test for your own channel, see if scheduling works for your channel. If it does, then that's great. If it doesn't, then you just have to manually upload it or pay a VA or your editor to do it for
300:28
Speaker A
you, right? But make sure you're doing two hours between each upload. If you make them too close together, there's a chance that you may get suppressed. Um, so yeah, that's how you break out of 100k view jail. Now, let's talk about a
300:38
Speaker A
million view jail. Because if you are stuck in a million view jail, I'm guessing you're probably getting anywhere from like 30 to 50 million views a month. You're probably already making money. You've probably at least got one editor working for you, or maybe
300:49
Speaker A
you're doing it all by yourself, right? So, there's really easy ways to break out of a million view jail. And we've done it so many times because we have, you know, videos that hit 10 million views all the time. But hitting a
300:58
Speaker A
million view jail is it's it's it's pretty motivating to be honest because you have had that taste of like, yo, I'm getting a million views. I could definitely do this, right? But a lot of people make the mistake of basically
301:10
Speaker A
doing the wrong things here and then they end up reverting backward. So here's everything you need to do to break out of a million view jail. The first thing you have to understand when you're in a million view jail is
301:20
Speaker A
typically this is an ideiation problem, right? And ideiation is going to become more and more important as we get into bigger view jails. But ideation is a huge step when we're in 1 million view gel, right? So there are different types
301:33
Speaker A
of ideas on YouTube. For example, if I uploaded a video talking about this is the craziest trampoline moment caught on camera, that may be worth maybe 30K to 100,000 views. But if I did these are the top five ranking the best trampoline
301:50
Speaker A
moments caught on camera, that may that may be worth like a million to maybe five million views, just depending. It it could even be a couple hundred million if you just do it correctly, right? But ideiation is very important
302:02
Speaker A
here. Now, how do you train ideiation? And this is something I teach a lot in my program because we have a lot of people in our program who are advanced and they're looking to go past, for example, like they're stuck at 5,000.
302:12
Speaker A
They want to scale to 30,000 like we did with Lewis, for example. He's an interview posted on our channel. So, when you want to focus on ideiation, you need to be able to learn the skill of analyzation. So look at your
302:25
Speaker A
competitors. Look at the best videos that have been uploaded in your niche and analyze those videos and understand why.
302:34
Speaker A
Why did that video do well? What did they do? Why did they do this? Right? I once heard on a podcast, you know, before I was even getting into YouTube like automation that much, I I was watched a lot of Mr. Beast because he
302:47
Speaker A
was one of my idols, right? And he used to say he would spend like anywhere from like 10 to 12 hours a day just analyzing videos. And it made me realize that like okay, if I'm going to need to, you know,
302:58
Speaker A
learn this first, I need to test a lot. And two, I need to do do a lot more ideation and analyzation. So understand why. I remember I was on a call with one of my friends and we stood up all night
303:11
Speaker A
watching a frame by frame analysis of a Mr. Beast video to understand why did this video go viral. And we just went through everything. We we went through like every single We look at the thumbnail. Look at this here. Why do he
303:22
Speaker A
put this here? Why this color? Why is his eyes like this? Why is his mouth open and closed? Why is it closed, not open? Why did he put this explosion here? Right? Why did he start off the video zooming out at that speed? Is that
303:32
Speaker A
speed optimal? We should test it out. You know, we just start questioning everything, absolutely everything. So, I have built the skill of analyzation so much when I was stuck in this time period of a million views jail, right? I
303:46
Speaker A
built the skill of analyzation. And trust me, this was a skill. I didn't have anyone to teach me this, right? I'm I'm giving you guys this for free, right? I had to figure this out on my own. And this was probably the hardest
303:56
Speaker A
time for me right here. Um because I was not really the smartest guy um in school, right? I'm also really really bad at remembering things. It sounds like I know a lot because I'm I'm going over all the stuff on YouTube. That's
304:11
Speaker A
because I do this every day. I actually have very terrible memory, surprising enough, right? But when I was analyzing my my competitors, right, I would have to watch frame by frame, like pause, like I would click it like bam, bam,
304:23
Speaker A
bam, bam, and I just click clicking the videos until I was just like, okay, what happened here? And I'm going to give you guys a live example of this right now.
304:30
Speaker A
Right? And once you start kind of doing more in-depth analysis, you will get better and better at this. All right, so here's RankZilla. He has one of the biggest ranking channels in the world right now. And his top video has 341
304:44
Speaker A
million views. So pretty insane. And let's analyze this video together so I can kind of show you how I analyze content and like how I see what's doing well and what isn't. So the first thing I do is I always look at the first frame
304:58
Speaker A
of the video. It's very important to do this. So I look at it, I'm like, "Okay, he has ranking funniest trampoline moments. He has funniest highlighted in red and then trampoline moments highlighted in yellow. The funniest highlight in red is probably the
305:08
Speaker A
symbolism of emotion. So we're highlighting the emotion and then it's yellow which is not as important but it's explaining what's exactly happening in the video. He starts with three instead of one two four five six or seven to kind of give us a taste of like
305:19
Speaker A
okay this is kind of funny here. And it starts off with a guy here for a second he already makes a jump and he gets hit in his toes. So I'm like okay basically the idea of this video is this guy has
305:30
Speaker A
to jump over this and he got hit already once. The second time he gets hit a second time but he's still up on his feet. The third time he gets hit on the ground and then he goes over. Next video
305:38
Speaker A
here, we start the next frame immediately with head shot. This kid is literally holding the thing back. The baby's a guy about to get hit. He lets it go and then bam, this kid gets just hit right in the face, right? Third one
305:50
Speaker A
right here. Like this video is about like this guy breaking his ankles, right? Within a couple seconds, he breaks his ankles, right? So, you could see how much stuff happened during that time period, right? But we it's easy to
306:01
Speaker A
say it, but it's hard to say why we did that. So like for example, why do these first three clips play in this video here, right? The reason why is because like emotional analysis, right? We watch these videos here. The first clip, what
306:12
Speaker A
do we give? We give some type of tension, right? So it's a tension video.
306:17
Speaker A
We're kind of like this guy's trying to move over here. We're trying to see if he survived. Second one, it's shock. Oh my gosh, this guy just got hit in the face, right? Shock. We went from tension to shock. And then after that, we go
306:28
Speaker A
straight to pain. He breaks his ankles, right? So in the first three clips, we get three different emotions. And this is what I learned as well, like the best ranking channels use different emotions in every single clip or they interchange
306:39
Speaker A
emotions to keep retention. And this is a small example of the bigger picture I'm talking about for 1 million view jail, right? Look at your competitors, see what they're doing. Everything is intentional. Even if the people who are
306:51
Speaker A
making it don't realize it, maybe they're doing something right without knowing, right? But if you understand that that works and you need to do it because it works, that is all the power to you. It's going to help you
307:02
Speaker A
understand how to ideate better, how to analyze better. It's going to just make everything easier for you to scale. So, understanding how to, you know, analyze is very important. Another thing with 1 million view jail is you need to
307:14
Speaker A
understand how monthly audiences work. So, monthly audiences, this is something that I don't see a lot of people talking about because most people are trying to make videos for the masses, right? How to escape 30k view jail, how to get
307:26
Speaker A
started on YouTube, right? But like no one's really talked about the advanced subjects because it doesn't get money, right? But like I'm here to help you guys out here. So let's say you're stuck in I don't know like a million view
307:36
Speaker A
jail. Here's a channel. I mean this channel is crushing for us right now. We're up $25,000 this month on this channel. The past 90 days we're up 63,000. Past 6 months we're like 188,000. And we've gotten lots of videos
307:47
Speaker A
on this channel that have broken past 50 million views I believe. I mean I think we have a 100 million view video on this. Yeah. Like we we have a lot of videos that have crushed on this channel
307:56
Speaker A
here. You can see all the videos getting an insane amount of views here. But what we look at a lot on this channel is the monthly audience. And this is something you should be paying attention to very carefully, right? So your monthly
308:06
Speaker A
audience can do one of three things. It can go up, it can go down, or it can stay the same. That's it. So if your monthly audience is going down while you're stuck in 1 million view jail, your channel is going to die soon. This
308:19
Speaker A
is a pattern recognition I've seen across so many different channels. If your monthly audience is saying the same but going or going up, you're in a healthy spot. If your if your month but if your monthly audience is saying the
308:31
Speaker A
same and the casual and regular viewer ratio is increasing percentage, then you are not in the green and you need to do something to fix it, right? So this video or this channel here has a 33.8 million monthly audience. So I mean like
308:45
Speaker A
we're doing very good here. You know, we're keeping it stable. Well, if you look at the past 90 days though, you'll see the starting point is higher than the lower point and you can see past 365 days. At one point, we had a 72 million
308:56
Speaker A
monthly audience. Why does this happen? Because niches die. It's a part of the game. Why do you think I have 38 channels? Do you think those are the only ones I've run? I've run hundreds of channels before, right? But this
309:06
Speaker A
channel, you know, like back in December, we carried it at $73,000 in a month. This month, it's only up 25,000.
309:14
Speaker A
Hey, that's not the best that I've ever done, but like for example, this is a channel example to show like, you know, monthly audience can still dip, but as long as you kind of have the knowledge to be able to scale and automate
309:23
Speaker A
channels, it'll make you a very big amount of money in a very like long period of time. And what's great is it's automated, so I really don't need to do that much stuff. So, that's kind of everything for 1 million view jail.
309:35
Speaker A
Let's talk about 10 million view jail cuz 10 million view jail this is where the magic happens because this a lot most people watching this probably aren't watching anymore because most people aren't stuck here. But if you are
309:44
Speaker A
watching just so you want to know the information once you hit it. Yo, all the power to you, bro. I love that people are watching this video at this point because it means that you're you're hungry. You know, you want to keep
309:53
Speaker A
scaling and it's very important that you learn this information anyway. Learn from the best people, right? Like I'm not the best in YouTube shorts, but I would say I'm one of the best. I have hit a two billion view month before and
310:03
Speaker A
$120,000 at 20 years old, you know, but there are people doing better than me, right? But learning someone from someone who's doing better than you is always very important. So, if you made it this far in the video, all the power to you,
310:14
Speaker A
bro. Let's get into it. How do we break out of 10 million view gel? When we are breaking out of 10 million view gel, the thing we need to understand is how VBP works, right? So, if you don't know what
310:23
Speaker A
VP V is, this stands for views per viewer. And this is where we start using some business terms here. So in business, right, for example, let's say we're selling bundles of chocolate, right? We could sell one chocolate bar
310:37
Speaker A
for $1 or we can sell three chocolate bars for $2.50. The the the thing people don't understand though is like I get this chocolate bar for like let's say 25. So if you buy three, it may look like a
310:49
Speaker A
deal, but I end up just making more money because the profit is there. The same thing applies when you're doing VPV on YouTube, right? So VPV is basically increasing the amount of views you get per viewer who watches your channel. So
311:01
Speaker A
let's say you have a ranking channel, right? If you have a ranking channel here and let's say in this ranking channel, you want people uh let's say you're not using related videos or anything like that. You're getting one
311:11
Speaker A
view per video or one view per viewer, right? So your VPV is basically equal to one in this example. How do you increase this VPV? One way to do this is related videos. If you use related videos to
311:24
Speaker A
your advantage, it's going to be so easy for you to start increasing your VPV.
311:28
Speaker A
And once you increase your VPV, you will start getting insane 48 hour marks. For example, like Dman, right? He's in our program right now for the past couple of months. 44 million views on a single channel. This guy is running six
311:42
Speaker A
channels, by the way. Enter running one. Now he's running six after joining our program. He's absolutely crushing it right now. 44 million views in a 48 hour mark. This is just one of our students and you know we do this like for example
311:53
Speaker A
like this channel here like like 97 million views on a single video right like how are we doing this it's because we're using VPV to our advantage if you notice a lot of our students getting insane um you know 48 hour mark second
312:07
Speaker A
channel is already at you know 6 million views um in the 48 hour mark it's because we understand how VPV works and I teach this to my students this is another sauce that I usually give my students I'm giving you guys just for
312:16
Speaker A
the information for you guys right so using related videos is insanely helpful. How do you do that? Here, I'll show you right now. All you have to do is go to a video that you know, for example, you've uploaded. Go to detailed
312:25
Speaker A
and you will see this option called related videos. You'll see like a big popup of all the videos you can relate here. You can select the video and just hit save and then boom, you just did a related video. And what this does is if
312:35
Speaker A
you go to your analytics, it's going to start helping increase your 48 hour mark here, right? So once you start increasing your 48 hour mark, you know, pretty much you get more views per video, which means all the videos also
312:46
Speaker A
get more views, which helps you break out of that 10 million view jail. Another thing you can do is serious content as well, right? For example, like this is part two of blank or part one of blank, right? Serious content
312:57
Speaker A
does very very well. It makes it very watchable. Like for example, I've seen a lot of like uh movie stuff do this a lot where like if you have any type of like movie videos or anything like that, you
313:07
Speaker A
can basically make series content. It makes it really easy to break out of the 10 million V jail because guess what?
313:11
Speaker A
All those people go flock into your channel and then they actually end up watching it. Also, using TV viewers is so important. And this is what we're doing for our top student as well right now. I mean, he's using TV audiences to
313:21
Speaker A
his advantage. And if you know how to increase your TV audience, it's really easy to break out 10 million 10 million view jail because YouTube is the number one most streamed platform in the entire planet right now for TV. It's dominating
313:32
Speaker A
the TV industry, including shorts, right? A lot of people think like, "Oh, no one watches shorts on TV." Guess what? Some of the top channels are getting 44% TV audiences with just single short content. I'll give you example of it right now as well. So
313:46
Speaker A
here's one of our top students right now. You can see he's at $65,000 in the past 28 days. But if you go to the past 90 days, he's at 211,000. And in the past 365 days, I've been working with
313:55
Speaker A
him for around 6 months now. So around here we started. And you can see the growth is pretty exponential. This is when we started getting into short form content. But you'll notice here, if we go to the audience here and we actually
314:05
Speaker A
go down, you will notice here um that the TV audience is around 40%. And if you know how to increase the TV audience, which is something I teach in my program, um you'll be able to pretty much utilize this to your advantage. And
314:17
Speaker A
even if we go to shorts, like we're getting like 40% TV audiences on this channel, and it's generating like, you know, almost 70. We even had an $88,000 month on this channel. two backto-back $80,000 months on this channel. So, this
314:32
Speaker A
is a really good example of like this right here. If you know how to increase your TV audience, you can really easily break out of 10 million view jail. This is also where broader formats come into play. I've talked about this a little
314:41
Speaker A
bit earlier, but doing broader formats, it doesn't have to be just ranking, but anything related to anything broad works, right? Because guess what? If you're making videos about, I don't know, like the best anime character in blank anime, I promise you it's not
314:56
Speaker A
going to get 10 million views, right? But sometimes it's about framing. If you frame the video in a way that's able to be watched by a baby and a grandma, it makes it much easier. For example, let's say you take a niche show, right? Like
315:07
Speaker A
let's say you take like Naruto and you do like a random character from Naruto like I don't know like uh Jeriah, right?
315:13
Speaker A
That that the the pervy sage. If we take that guy as an example, right? I bet you most people will not know who that guy is if you go to a broader anime or just life in general. Like you ask your dad
315:26
Speaker A
who's Jeriah from Naruto, he's like why are you asking me about this? Go get a job. Right? But what you should be doing is you should be making these videos as broad as possible. So instead of saying, did you know that in Naruto when Jerai
315:38
Speaker A
did this, you can start the video with this anime character is the most well-known anime character? And if you don't know it, then you probably do, right? You start the video off like this. It's the same video idea, but the
315:49
Speaker A
framing is different. This is where broad scripting comes into play. If you understand the skill of broad scripting, which is also something we teach in our program as well, it's going to be much easier for you to get more views because
315:59
Speaker A
guess what? Your swipe ratio is going to go up. The average TAM of your videos is going to go up. Remember, we talked about TAM earlier. If you can increase the TAM of your videos by just framing it a little bit differently, it's going
316:09
Speaker A
to be much easier for you to watch. For example, I don't really care about watching any other sports besides soccer or football as you guys say all around the world, right? But um you know if you talk about for example like a basketball
316:21
Speaker A
player and you say this is the deadliest basketball injury of all time. As someone who doesn't really care to watch basketball, I will watch that video anyway. The reason why is because it's very broad, right? I'm interested. It's
316:34
Speaker A
the most of all time. Let me see what happened here. And this makes it a lot easier to reach a higher TAM, right? So increasing your TAM by just framing with broad scripting. This is more advanced topic which is why I left this toward
316:46
Speaker A
the end of the video. But it's very very important for you guys to understand how to broaden your TAM with broad scripting, broad framing, because it helps you break out of 10 million view jail. This also dabbles into a little
316:56
Speaker A
bit of how we break out of 100 million view jail, which is very very niche for only a few of you guys that have really hit it. If you want to consistently hit 100 million view jail, well then you
317:03
Speaker A
guys can wait till the end of this video. But this is pretty much how you break out of 10 million view jail in its full. But again, main takeaways you need to understand here is understanding. You need to have universal ideas, right? So,
317:15
Speaker A
making sure that the videos you're uploading is very very broad and easy to understand because if you have universal ideas, it's much easier for anyone watching it to be able to watch and actually be able to um learn from it or
317:27
Speaker A
be able to relate to it. Because remember, what does YouTube want? YouTube wants three things. They want to make as much money as possible, people to be as satisfied as possible, and people to stay as long as possible on
317:35
Speaker A
the platform. Right? You make universal ideas, anyone can watch it. That's why ranking videos do so well because you're tapping into niches from all different lenses of life. For example, if you made a video talking about, you know,
317:47
Speaker A
removing wasp nests, it probably wouldn't do very well by itself. Like, how do you remove a wasp nest? But if you do top seven, you know, wasps nest removals, it's much more broad and all of a sudden you turn a very niche idea
317:59
Speaker A
of removing wasps nest, which is something you usually only search on YouTube when you have a wasp nest outside your deck, right, to oh my gosh, this is like a short form content that could get pushed to hundreds of millions
318:08
Speaker A
of people. And this is what we do for a lot of our students as well. So universal ideas is very important.
318:13
Speaker A
Making sure you're doing related videos on these universal videos as well will help you a lot. related videos will basically just get you more VB or VPV which is going to help you get to um more audience and also just doing broad
318:27
Speaker A
scripting which kind of addresses our um universal ideas and this helps increase our TAM higher. So that's pretty much everything for 10 million views. I know it's a lot of information so take it all in guys. Remember, if you want to like
318:41
Speaker A
go back at any point in this video in the future and like you get stuck at a certain point, you can go back there and watch it. And before I get to 100 million view jail and how to break out
318:49
Speaker A
of that, guys, again, we do have a program where, you know, we teach people basically how to scale out of any view jail and pretty much just scale on YouTube in general. We help people scale multiple channels. For example, like I
318:59
Speaker A
told you, Dman, here he is right here. He's actually at six channels now and he is getting the insane amount of views.
319:03
Speaker A
He's almost getting a 100 million views in the 48 hour mark now every single time. We have students hitting hundreds of thousands of dollars per month. For example, like our one of our students, Rit, he hit a $100,000 month. A lot of
319:13
Speaker A
students are hitting $50,000 months. A lot of students are, you know, easily getting like 100,000 plus views in their first 10 hours of uploading. Multiple multiple multiple uh, you know, 48 hour marks that are above 4 million, 10
319:24
Speaker A
million. Here's worth it right here with his $70,000 month, right? So, we have lots of, you know, student results.
319:31
Speaker A
Like, for example, here's TB. He's at a 14 million 40 mark. So, if you guys want to, you know, this information was helpful and you really want to learn for yourself, go ahead, check the description link and check the pinned
319:42
Speaker A
comment as well. Apply and go ahead and apply, join our program. Let's get you in here and let's help you guys get scaled up because a lot of you guys are stuck in a certain place right now with
319:50
Speaker A
YouTube and you need to break out of it. And it's most likely just the knowledge or the guidance you need in order to actually scale. So, you know, after we go over this or right now if you wants
319:59
Speaker A
to apply, go and do that. But let's go over a 100red million view jail and how to break out of it. This one is going to be really fun. So, when you guys hear the word 100 million view jail, I bet
320:10
Speaker A
the first reaction most you guys have, unless you've already hit it, is that's not real, right? That's not real. 100 million view jail. What is that? Right?
320:18
Speaker A
And I broken out of this before because I have a 200 million view video. So, let's talk about it, right? How do you exactly break out of a 100red million views in the first place? Right? So, if you want to get to 100 million views,
320:32
Speaker A
first of all, all you have to do is apply everything we talked about here at 10 million views. Right? Quick sauce for you right now. But if you want to break a 100 million views, let's say you're at
320:41
Speaker A
here and you haven't broken past it, this is where you need to understand the global phenomenon of language and communication.
320:49
Speaker A
So, a lot of you guys speak English. If you don't speak English, you're probably listening this through a translator, for example, like Spanish or any other language, right? So, language sucks, right? And here's why. Because if someone's watching this and they speak
321:05
Speaker A
Spanish, right? I'm speaking English and I'm not able to really communicate my thoughts to you, unless you're bilingual.
321:12
Speaker A
That's really bad for getting views. You will notice the videos, the top videos that get the most amount of views, other than a few exceptions, typically don't have language barriers. And this is where understanding view maxing to its
321:26
Speaker A
full capacity and how I personally got up two billion views in a single month is very important. So basically language sucks, right? And the reason why is because it limits us for the amount of views we can get. There's only a certain
321:40
Speaker A
amount of people in the world who speak English. If you want to focus on making money, sure, but we're talking about getting views right now, right? 100 million views. If you want to get this, we need to basically uncap the amount of
321:50
Speaker A
people watching us. That means uncapping the language as well, right? So, for example, let's say we're making a video about ranking the best, I don't know, trampoline moments like we said earlier, right? Instead of using English commentary or clips with English, do
322:06
Speaker A
clips where there's no type of wording in any other language that's going to drive people away. Now, a lot of people argue with me, well, Devin, I use captions that are English. Won't that drive people away? And the answer is no.
322:19
Speaker A
But a lot of people from a lot of other languages will watch your videos even if there's English captions because a lot of people have English as their second language or English is taught as a second language in almost every country
322:29
Speaker A
in the world right now, right? So English is basically the primary language. It's okay to have captions. A lot of people can understand it even if there's not. Like I've seen videos where like there's Spanish captions, there's Chinese captions, right? And it's just
322:43
Speaker A
ranking the funniest dog moments, right? But it's in another language. But you stay to watch the video anyway because who cares what the language is right there? I'm watching the video. But as soon as that person starts speaking
322:54
Speaker A
Spanish or speaking whatever other language, I'm immediately not as interested because I don't understand, right? Cuz wording does not affect context. And context is very important to understand breaking out of 100 million views. And also for these videos, it's not a you need to try
323:12
Speaker A
making universal videos. It's you need to make the most broad universal videos possible, right? You need to make videos that anyone from any language, any age, any demographic, any gender, any race can watch this video and be like, "Huh,
323:28
Speaker A
I know what's going on right now. How can I show this to a baby and to my grandma and to some person from another language and all of them be interested and watch the video all the way through? So, I'm
323:43
Speaker A
going to show you a video from Daniel Labella. He got I think like 3 or 1.3 billion views on a single YouTube short.
323:51
Speaker A
Let's analyze why his video did well and how he broke 100 million views. And then I'll give you some more examples of how you can do this to your own channel to break 100 million views on your single
324:00
Speaker A
videos. So, here is Daniel Leella, right? He has a pretty big YouTube channel, 35 million um subscribers. He lost speed recently, but um he uploaded this video three years ago. It's actually at three 1.6 6 billion views.
324:14
Speaker A
And let's actually watch this video. So, what's going on here? Right, he's basically running around. He's cleaning.
324:27
Speaker A
There's no music. There's no audio. He's just running around doing parkour and cleaning in a nice house.
324:36
Speaker A
A lot of you guys probably watching this because you most likely are advanced at this point. You understand why this did well.
324:42
Speaker A
But basically, the reason why this video did well is because what does everyone do in every type of culture? They keep their house clean, right? Everyone likes keeping their house clean. This video is a guy of a guy running. Everyone in
324:56
Speaker A
cultures run, right? Everyone, you know, has some type of place where they sleep or live in, right? Or some type of food that they eat. He's just doing all those things, right? It's just so relatable.
325:10
Speaker A
Like anyone watching this can watch this and understand what's going on. There's no context needed, no captions needed, right? And you'll notice he did everything we're talking about. Look at the title. If cleaning was time sport part two. What does this do? Increases
325:27
Speaker A
VPV because people go to his channel and watch more of his content. All right.
325:31
Speaker A
So, this is an example of how you can break a 100red million view jail. Now, me personally, I've never gotten a billion views on a single short. My highest is 220 million, but I still think that's pretty good, right? Um, so
325:46
Speaker A
if you guys want to break out of this view jail that you guys are stuck in, right, for 100 million views, you need to understand how language is limiting you, how speaking is limiting you, how audio may be limiting you. I bet you if
326:03
Speaker A
this was the same video, but you had Bad Bunny in the background and he was only speaking Spanish, someone would scroll away because they don't understand the the the Spanish going on in the background. Someone would scroll away. I
326:16
Speaker A
bet you if you put some type of uh K-pop in the background, right, and it was some like Japanese music, someone would scroll away because they don't understand it. They're like, "What is this?" and they go right. If you want to
326:28
Speaker A
get the most reach possible, limit yourself by unlimiting every type of factor that could possibly drive someone away, right? Now, of course, there's some things that we can't control, right? For example, like if you look a certain way, you can't control
326:44
Speaker A
that, right? But I mean, like look at Kabi Lane, bro. You know that black guy who just does this and he puts his hands like this? That guy has the most followers and views on Tik Tok.
326:57
Speaker A
All he does is this. Why does it do so well, guys? You guys know what I'm talking about, right? Kobby Lame. Kabi lame. This guy right here, the guy who does this. Why does this do so well? There's no speaking. There's no
327:13
Speaker A
audio, right? It's just a movement because everyone in every culture can understand. Hm. Hm. It's it's so easy to understand, right? Once you understand this, getting 100 million views becomes a lot easier because you understand what your limits
327:33
Speaker A
are. So, do me a favor. Look at your own channel right now. Look at everything that you're doing wrong with your channel, right? Look at every single video that has gotten stuck in any view jail, including videos that have not got
327:45
Speaker A
100 million views, and think about, could you do this right now? You're not able to do this for every single niche.
327:52
Speaker A
For example, in commentary niches, you you can't you can't just take away the language, right? You just can't. But guess what? As YouTube gets better, as AI gets better, AI transcripts are going to become a real thing thing that allows
328:04
Speaker A
you to get a lot more views. Views is going to become easier than ever as time goes on, right? View jails are going to become bigger and bigger. For example, I was on YouTube for years. A couple years
328:13
Speaker A
ago, 30K view jail wasn't even a thing. It was like 10k view jail. And before that, there wasn't 10K view jail. It was just like, I hope my videos gets pushed out. YouTube is going to continuously push out more views to more audiences. A
328:25
Speaker A
lot of people have the problem of, hey, I'm only getting people in India as my audience. I want to get Americans to increase my RPM. That wasn't a problem before because YouTube didn't allow you to get languages or audiences from other
328:37
Speaker A
languages. It was just whatever language you spoke, right? But because we're getting in an age and now where getting views is so much easier than ever and YouTube wants to push the direction toward growth, right? This is why these
328:49
Speaker A
things happen. So this is how you escape 100 million view jail. Uncap yourself. Become limitless. All right? You want to be able to reach the most amount of people possible. I hope this was an eye openener because this right here, the
329:04
Speaker A
knowledge I just gave you took me eight years to understand. All right? eight years of studying and analyzing. And it may seem obvious I'm telling you now, but it took me nearly half my life to analyze this information that I've given
329:18
Speaker A
you right now. So, I hope you value it and I hope it helps you scale with your channel. So, the last most important thing I want to talk about before I wrap this course up is understanding how to
329:27
Speaker A
diagnose your channel when you're stuck in VueJL. Cuz a lot of people say they're stuck in VueJL, but maybe only one of their videos got stuck. And sometimes, you know, the algorithm glitches out. Sometimes you push correctly. And I want to kind of break
329:38
Speaker A
down how to diagnose your channel when you're in view jail. So the TB testing period, as I mentioned earlier in some other view jails, is 8 to 12 days. So usually takes 8 to 12 days to break out
329:48
Speaker A
of a view jail after doing consistent stats. You can hit these stats one single time on a video. That does not mean you're going to you necessarily break out of view. Jail. Vue.jail is something you break over a consistent
329:59
Speaker A
basis, right? So make sure when you are making these videos, you know, you're uploading, understand it takes time. It takes 8 to 12 days to break out of any given view. The other thing that you need to understand is just because you
330:14
Speaker A
are hitting these stats over a consistent basis, let's say 8 to 12 days, and you don't get pushed out, there may be other things wrong with your channel as well, right? So go back to the previous few jails and try to
330:24
Speaker A
figure out if you have any of those problems wrong, you know, as well. Like for example, like your trust score may be a big issue while you're stuck in 50k view jail, right? Because YouTube is not a concrete black and white. like this is
330:36
Speaker A
the one instruction to break out of view gel because sometimes it's a little bit different. Sometimes you need to do something for example like you're stuck in a million view jail and you need to fix it and in order to fix it all you
330:46
Speaker A
have to do is just go and fix your trust score and then bam you're uploading five videos a day or maybe you're stuck in 10 million views but you need to upload five times per day to get 50 million
330:55
Speaker A
views, right? It's just it's kind of just dependent on whatever scenario you're currently in. So quick little summary of the entire course. So, if you're stuck in zero view jail, it's typically because you have some type of trust score issue. So, if you have a
331:06
Speaker A
trust score issue, the best way to fix it is just going to the trust score video that I've already uploaded. It's 1 hour long. You can go watch it and diagnose your own channel or you can apply to our program and I can help you
331:16
Speaker A
increase the trust score. We also have this app called Sata, which is going to be linked in the description as well.
331:20
Speaker A
You basically put in your channel details and it basically tells you your exact trust score of your channel. That way, it's very, very easy for you to kind of just see the number and then see what you need to improve. It's very,
331:29
Speaker A
very intuitive. If you're stuck in 30k view jail, it's very important that you guys understand the swipe ratio and the retention of your videos and improve them, right? Usually, that's the reason why you're just getting usually bad stats. If you want to improve your
331:41
Speaker A
stats, look at your competitors and see what they're doing differently, right? And if they are doing something differently, all you have to do is, you know, anal analysis, right, of like what they're exactly doing and then just copy
331:53
Speaker A
them, right? Or maybe do replicate and then reiterate later, try to do something a little bit different. Um the main thing is if they have a proven format that works then you should be using that format as well to your
332:01
Speaker A
advantage to make sure you know you have something that you if I upload this you know it works. I also recommend you know for example for 50k view jail because a lot of people talk about comments and reactions. It's usually an emotion
332:13
Speaker A
problem. So make sure at 50k view jail you're analyzing emotions properly. If you are using emotions properly um you it's going to be pretty easy to scale.
332:20
Speaker A
Remember my retention graph of like happy, angry, sad, happy, right? If you want the retention graph to be straight, you need to utilize every single emotion differently in your videos. Make sure you're understanding at which point of this video, which emotion am I trying to
332:33
Speaker A
make the viewer feel? Because if the viewer feels blank at this amount of time, then they're going to stay. If it changes, then they're going to stay as well. At 100,000 view, it's usually a volume problem, right? So, look how many
332:44
Speaker A
videos you're uploading and see how you can optimize it. This is where starting to systematize and understanding how editors come into play is very, very helpful. editors is very important for all of these view jails, but for 100k
332:54
Speaker A
view jail, systematizing your time is very important because we only have so many hours in the day, especially if you're doing YouTube part-time right now because, you know, you have a job, maybe you're in college, maybe you're in
333:03
Speaker A
school, whatever you're doing, maybe you're you have a family, right? If if you have those other responsibilities, you need to make sure you're optimizing the time you are working, which is why time optimization is so important. I'm going to be dropping a course on that
333:14
Speaker A
later um this year on how to optimize your time. I also talk to all my students. I actually in every single call, you know, with my students before we actually get into the mentorship, I have a one-on-one call with each of my
333:25
Speaker A
students and I optimize their entire time and I systematize their life to make sure they have the most optimal schedule to make the most amount of videos. Cuz for example, let's say you're sourcing videos and that takes 30
333:36
Speaker A
minutes a day, right? If sourcing takes 30 minutes a day because you need to find the perfect 1 million view clip, you know, we could systematize it by, hey, let's just compile all these clips in one single day so that way we don't
333:45
Speaker A
have to do it the rest of the year. Or, hey, I have a guy I can give you. You pay him like 200 bucks and he like I've already trained him. So, you can just go tell him what to do and he'll find all
333:52
Speaker A
the clips for you. Or instead of making, you know, one million view ideas, we go into, well, one million view jail, which is going to be finding videos that kind of have one million view ideas, or maybe they're not one million view ideas, but
334:03
Speaker A
you can compile them in ranking formats, which is going to be the 1 million view jail, which is understanding formats, understanding how to change your format to your advantage, understanding how to adapt because adapting is going to be a
334:14
Speaker A
very, very hard lesson a lot of you guys are going to have to learn because what works today will not work tomorrow, right? And that's a big problem. a lot of people like face as well. They hit like a crazy month. Maybe they hit like
334:25
Speaker A
a 10, 20. A lot of you guys have even hit $30,000 months and then you've dropped off. And that's why you're watching this video because you're trying to understand why am I stuck in 30k view jail if I was getting 300
334:35
Speaker A
million views like a couple months ago, right? And the reason why is because the algorithm changes, formats change. You have to be adaptive. And a lot of people have this ego like, "Okay, this worked before. I want it to be able to work
334:47
Speaker A
again." But guys, I promise you it's not going to work again. And if everyone else is trying the same thing and it's not working, that's your sign to switch your niche or switch your format. 10 million view jail is where you
334:59
Speaker A
understand how to increase your VPV. Again, VPV is views per viewer, right? So, if you want to get more views per each person that sees your channel, you need to increase your VPV. This goes beyond just related videos, but making
335:12
Speaker A
sure you're watching content that's bingeable, making sure you're watching content that is able to be rewatched on a longer period of time. You want to be increasing your comment ratio very heavily on 10 million view jail. And then for 100 million view jail,
335:23
Speaker A
universal languages. You want to make sure you're making videos that are able to be watched by everyone in the world.
335:28
Speaker A
Any single person watching this video should be able to watch it, understand it from any age, any demographic, any gender, any race, any of that. All right, so I hope this video was helpful.
335:37
Speaker A
If it was, guys, if you want to, you know, work with me, you can go ahead and apply down below and I'm going to talk about that in just a second. But remember guys, if you get stuck in any
335:45
Speaker A
type of view jail in the future, come back to this video and watch the part of the view jail that you're stuck in, right? Because I pretty much broke down the main things you need to do. And like
335:55
Speaker A
this isn't just remember numbers and like information I'm just pulling out of my butt here. It's real info that I've gotten from all the channels that we're running, all the students that we're working with. And it's going to be very
336:05
Speaker A
helpful for a lot of you guys as well because as long as you just implement this information, I know you'll see a difference. And when you see a difference and you know you start increasing your views, you start making
336:15
Speaker A
more money. Hey, our program is there. And remember, you can achieve any amount of views you want, right? I've gotten billions of views a month. You can as well. There's nothing stopping you from getting billions of views a month. The
336:25
Speaker A
only thing that I guess you don't have is just the information, right? And it took me eight years of trial and error to do this. And you can go through trial and error as well. But these videos, all
336:35
Speaker A
these information I've given for free on YouTube, you can use this to your advantage to start scaling your own channel. All right, this is years of experience and you know I have all the student testimonials to back up, right?
336:44
Speaker A
You know, I'm just not just spitting BS. Uh we have lots of amazing student results and that's kind of evidence for all of the different ways we've broken people out of view. We have people who come in getting 300 million views, want
336:54
Speaker A
to scale to a billion views. We have people coming in at zero view jail who wants to scale to their first, you know, 100 million view month. Just depends.
337:01
Speaker A
The last thing is loopability, right? You want to make sure these videos that you're watching, right, the videos that are getting 100 million views. This applies to 10 million views as well. But like you want to make sure your videos
337:11
Speaker A
are loopable, right? The best videos don't just have 100 plus% retention. Like I said in earlier videos, AVD divided by LV is above 100%. They have, you know, 200, 300, even 400% retention graphs, right? because the video is just
337:29
Speaker A
so watchable. You can watch it from anywhere in the world multiple times. They'll keep laughing. There's things that they miss. Add Easter eggs. Comment ratios are also insane for these type of videos. Do subtle CTAs without speaking.
337:43
Speaker A
That's another thing we teach in our program, which is why we've had a couple students hit over 100 million views on their personal videos. For example, like I showed earlier in our student testimony. I want to talk about what's
337:52
Speaker A
going on with YouTube's algorithm right now. Cuz if you guys have noticed, a lot of people have been getting view jailed for different reasons than before. Views have been going up and down. Some people have just been getting straight up just
338:02
Speaker A
like uh completely jailed. They go from like 14 million 48 hour to like 700,000 48 hour, which I know sounds like a lot to you guys, but that's a really big dip. You know, it's a huge dip. And that
338:12
Speaker A
was happening to a lot of people, especially on uh on X. I saw a lot of people posting about I even posted about on X briefly. And um a lot of people are experiencing the same issue of uh you
338:23
Speaker A
know a lot of people are getting this view I'll show you right here like this was happening no this was not the right post here it is this is happening to a lot of people right so basically like you were
338:35
Speaker A
getting a lot of views and then it would just randomly die down this actually even happens to a couple of our channels as well so we're going to talk about this first right because this is happening still uh it's you know with
338:45
Speaker A
the YouTube AI and how to fix it then we're going to talk about uh you know the new settings and stuff for YouTube and the analytics involved with it because uh the 32C rule doesn't apply anymore. I don't know if you guys know
338:56
Speaker A
this, but 32 seconds is not really something you need to be hitting anymore. I push it very hard before because that was what the original Trustcore equation was and now it has changed and you don't need to have 32C
339:06
Speaker A
videos. Is that good? It's all right. It's all right. All right. Anyways, let's get into it. So, first things first, has anyone else experienced a weird type of view jail recently where you're going anywhere from anywhere from 11,000 to 33,000 views? Can I just get a
339:22
Speaker A
yes or no in the chat? Yes or no in the chat? If you guys have experienced 11,000 to 33,000. Okay, I'm seeing a lot of yeses now. Has anyone experienced a view jail from 30,000 to 100,000 views in the past, you know,
339:36
Speaker A
couple of days or so? Because this has also been happening as well. Okay. Okay. And now, has anyone experienced a 1 million 48 hour view jail? Cuz this is also happening to a lot of people as well. A 1 million 48
339:48
Speaker A
hour. You get stuff from 39 to 110K. Yeah. And as you guys know, 110K doesn't really make you that much money on YouTube, you know, for shorts at least.
339:55
Speaker A
So, there's different levels of jails as you guys know. And there is different solutions for each one. So, I'm going to go over the smallest one, the medium one, and then the larger one for breaking out of the million view jail.
340:06
Speaker A
So first um let's talk about that random dip that was happening for a lot of people. So, the reason why if you guys saw your 48 hour was looking like this and then it randomly just dipped here, right? And
340:17
Speaker A
you guys are seeing this random huge drop. The reason this happened was because YouTube's AI has again been going haywire, right? So, basically why this happens is because YouTube has been thinking that people have been viewing even though it's not really true. You
340:30
Speaker A
guys know how YouTube's AI is. the the AI detection is so bad right now that they'll randomly start like shadowbanning channels just because they think they are viewbotting the channel, right? A good way to check if your channel is actually getting viewbotted,
340:42
Speaker A
if you go to your analytics, you go to your traffic sources and if you see there's a random website that gets like 10% plus your traffic, you're probably getting viewbotted. Now, chances are if you're not the one viewbotting yourself,
340:53
Speaker A
no one's probably viewing you. But YouTube's detection software was assuming that people were getting viewbotted because of the increase in views, which is why we were seeing a lot of people getting random drops because YouTube was shadowbanning. Now, luckily,
341:04
Speaker A
there is a solution to this problem. If you guys were getting shadowbanned like this, the solution is going to your subscription feed. If you guys go into your settings when you're about to upload a video, there is a setting
341:14
Speaker A
called publish to subscribers, you want to check that off. So, here I'll show you guys what that kind of looks like.
341:20
Speaker A
Here, I actually posted it on X. So here, let me show you. It's right here. So the setting looks just like this. If you go to load, there you go. So you'll see this setting right here. All right. What you have to
341:37
Speaker A
do is you have to go to your settings and then click off publish uh to subscriptions and this will basically reset your algo and put you back up to a new uh audience and then it'll basically jump start your channel and you could
341:49
Speaker A
start seeing your 48 hour going up. That is the first solution, right? The second solution is potentially doing collaborations. Now, I know a lot of you guys have kind of heard what collaborations are, but a lot of you
342:00
Speaker A
guys aren't really running them because you don't have anyone to collab with. We tested this with Ian and we're testing this with Romeo as well right now. If you do a collaboration with a channel that is getting you a low 48
342:11
Speaker A
hour with a channel that is doing a higher 48 hour, you can easily jumpst start your channel. Now, if you guys don't have resources of people to actually do the collabs with, then you won't really be able to do it, you know,
342:21
Speaker A
because you need someone. But, you know, there's a lot of people in the server that you guys can connect with, a lot of inner circle guys would happily collab with you if you're, you know, in the correct niche and the channel makes
342:29
Speaker A
sense. Um, but, you know, collabs are a really good way to jump start your channel and you can basically increase your trust trust score immediately as long as the analytics are good, right?
342:38
Speaker A
But you have to make sure it's in the same niche, right? If you're making dog commentary and then you you collab with some space channel, like it's just not going to work and then you'll just cook both channels. So, if they aren't the
342:49
Speaker A
same niche, you will cook your channel. You got to be careful of that. All right, that's what I want to talk about first for this uh shadowban/view that's been going on with everyone, right? With this dip. All right, now that we talked
343:00
Speaker A
about this, why did your room stuck at that point? I've been so busy with work, bro. Guys, you guys know I'm working like 24/7. I don't have time to build stuff, bro. I I build like one shelf a
343:09
Speaker A
week because I'm so busy working. Anyways, um let's talk about the 11 to 30k view jail u or 33k view jail. This is usually the average. I heard a lot of you guys are struggling with this. I think this is the biggest uh view jail
343:26
Speaker A
that you guys are in for a lot of you. And I want to talk about how to break out of this, right? Because before it was aiming for 32 seconds, getting a 33 second AVD, getting a swipe ratio above
343:36
Speaker A
81.1%. This is not really necessary anymore, and you need to hit different stats in order to kind of break out of this fuse jail, right? So remember the reason why I had my initial trust score stats of, you know, you want to be aiming for 32
343:52
Speaker A
seconds. You want to get like, you know, above a 32 second AVD. So like a 33 second AVD, 32 second LOV. And then of course you wanted to get the swipe ratio of above 81.1%. Right? And then if you
344:05
Speaker A
guys remember as well in my previous videos, I've talked about the point system where like you know a like is one point, uh a comment is two points, uh watching the video all the way through is four points, clicking on the sound is
344:14
Speaker A
four points, right? You guys know about the YouTube point system. So, um, this stat really isn't necessary anymore because YouTube is changing the way they pay their creators and changing the way they make money. So, originally, YouTube made money from four different income
344:32
Speaker A
streams, right? They make money from advertisers on Google paying them, right? So, they get make money from that. They make money from YouTube Red or YouTube uh subscriptions. They make money from music deals on their platform. And then they make their money
344:44
Speaker A
through transactions, right? like uh any type of things like donation, a super chat, um any type of cheer, anything like that. That is how YouTube makes money because they get a commission off that. And also, you could argue they
344:57
Speaker A
make money off movie deals, but I don't include it because it doesn't really affect us, right? So, of these really four, you know, that YouTube makes money. YouTube of course makes the most money from advertisers on Google paying them, right? So,
345:10
Speaker A
advertisers are spending money on YouTube because they want to get a return on their investment. If I'm a marketer and I'm running, let's say, like a a supplement brand and I start making supplement content and I start posting advertisements on Google, we're
345:22
Speaker A
going to get pushed to the YouTube shorts feed, right? YouTube makes money because the advertisers are sending money straight to Google for a placement on the YouTube Shorts feed. Now, before advertisers made the most amount of money when you hit these stats, it would
345:37
Speaker A
see the highest amount of conversions, right? Because if you have a really high converting video for a Google advertisement, that is how advertisers increase your RPM. For example, the reason why United States RPMs are so high is because people in United States
345:52
Speaker A
have more money and they convert higher on Google ads compared to people like for example in India, right? In India, not a lot of people spend money on the internet. So the RPMs are a lot lower because advertisers don't get a return
346:04
Speaker A
on their investment. All right, does that make sense so far, guys? Before I continue, Are we making sense, guys? All right.
346:14
Speaker A
Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Okay. So, now that we understand how RPM is calculated, right? The RPM is being calculated differently than it was before, right? Because these stats were the main stats you need to hit. Now, advertisers are going through
346:27
Speaker A
emotionbased buying, right? So, the more emotions you can make a a viewer feel, the higher they're going to convert on an advertisement, which means your RPM is going to increase. And if your RPM increases, that means what? YouTube is
346:40
Speaker A
making more money off your videos as well. If we're making YouTube more money, we're going to get pushing the algorithm further because our goal is basically to help YouTube, right? We're YouTube servant. If we help YouTube make money, they will gift us views, which
346:51
Speaker A
will make us money as well. It's a it's a codependent relationship, right? So now that we know that emotions are being the main driving factor for conversions of these advertisements, we need to understand what causes emotions and how
347:03
Speaker A
do we quantify it? So before we quantified emotions by looking at our retention and seeing if they watched the video all the way through and then rewatched it and that still is valid, but a new analytic is being shown to
347:16
Speaker A
increase the amount of advertisements or money advertisers make and that is the comment ratio. Right? So I'm going to put CR for comment ratio. If you guys are getting more comments on your videos or you're stuck in any type of YouTube
347:26
Speaker A
jail, increasing your comment ratio guarantees you to almost break out of this. All right? As long as your niche is big enough. But comment ratio is the biggest source right now of breaking out of this view jail right here. All right,
347:37
Speaker A
this 11 to 33,000 view jail. All right. Um, and I want to talk about the type of emotions you want to make them feel, right? Because I've talked about the three pillars of YouTube. YouTube wants to make as much money as possible to
347:49
Speaker A
keep people on their platform as long as possible and for people to be satisfied, right? Those are the three different metrics that YouTube really wants you to hit. Now, you need to understand that if you really want YouTube to hit these
348:01
Speaker A
metrics, being satisfied does not really mean being satisfied, right? When I say satisfied, you guys think of like ASMR or like a good ending, right? But that is not true. And satisfied in emotion, satisfied in YouTube's eyes is any type
348:14
Speaker A
of emotion, right? So, if you make them feel angry or happy or you rage bait them or you make people feel sad, doesn't matter. If they're feeling an emotion, they will convert higher on an advertisement because their uh their
348:24
Speaker A
buying levels are higher when they feel anything. Right. So, you have to comment bait. Exactly, Max. You have to comment bait, right? So, this is what I recommend you guys doing. Now, I'm going to explain how to exactly increase your
348:35
Speaker A
comment ratio, but there's also another stat you guys need to understand, which is your retention, right? So, before you needed to aim for 32 second videos, because 32 second videos was the ideal number to hit in order to actually make
348:47
Speaker A
the most amount of money possible. Now, I've talked about this in my 1hour Trustcore course video. I recommend you guys watch it later if you haven't already, but I'm going to go over this briefly again if you guys didn't get to
348:56
Speaker A
that part of the video exactly. Right. So, there's two different types of retentions that really you could focus on now. Right? So, 32 seconds is not really that valid anymore. The first one is 24 seconds. So, if you guys are
349:07
Speaker A
aiming for a 24 second video, you need to make sure that your LOV is 34 32 or 24 seconds. So, your AVD needs to be at least 26 seconds. All right? All right.
349:18
Speaker A
It needs to be 2 seconds higher. If you're going to be aiming for a 24 secondond LOV, have your AVD at 26 seconds. If you are aiming for a 1 minute video, your LOV can be 1 minute and your AVD
349:32
Speaker A
needs to be 44 seconds. Right? These are the numbers that I am seeing more recently. We had an 170 million view video go viral with a one minute LV, a 44 second AVD. We made $12,000 from that video. All right, so I'm telling you
349:49
Speaker A
guys, these these aren't stats I'm just pulling out of thin air. Uh these are analytics that I'm working with on the channels that I'm working with right now. And these are the analytics that are getting us the most amount of views.
349:59
Speaker A
These aren't these aren't numbers I'm pulling out of thin air, guys. These are like channels that I'm working with. And these are analytics. And here I can actually show you guys the analytic right now. Just give me a second. I want
350:07
Speaker A
to make sure I don't accidentally leak the channel because this channel is popping right now. Just give me um give me like 30 seconds and I'll pull up the analytics and I'll show you. Yeah, but I mean this this video like made nearly
350:18
Speaker A
$12,000 off a YouTube short by the way as well. Like a YouTube short, you know, made 12 grand. It's the it's the most amount of money I've made from a YouTube short personally. So it's a it's a new
350:27
Speaker A
record for me. Um it's 160 million views. I apologize, guys. 160 million here. Let me pull it up real quick.
350:40
Speaker A
Here we go. Okay, make this big for you guys. Yeah, so this is the analytics uh right here. And you know, this video was 1 minute and we had a 44 second uh AVD. This is an older video, but it's getting it got pushed
350:55
Speaker A
back to the algorithm. Uh the the video got pushed back to the algorithm once these stats were hit. You guys will actually notice as well if you have old stats that are reaching this criteria, you may get repushed to the algorithm
351:07
Speaker A
because just because a video is old and it has, you know, these stats doesn't mean it can't get pushed again. Cuz it can get pushed against to the algorithm regardless if you know it's old or new.
351:17
Speaker A
As long as your stats are being hit, you will consistently get pushed to the algorithm as long as it's relevant.
351:24
Speaker A
Okay. Anyways, let's go back to this. So yeah, that the main thing I want to talk about is, you know, the 24 second or 1 minute AVD. You can still aim for 33 second uh 32C AVD and 33 second LOV or
351:37
Speaker A
vice versa. 33 32 second LOV and 33 second AVD. Just remember that it's easier probably to hit this 24 second cuz I know a lot of you guys struggle to get that 32 second uh length of video and because you guys struggle to get
351:53
Speaker A
that your video ends up being stretched and then your average view duration decreases. Have you guys encountered that problem where you're just trying to get that 32 second video but you can't because you don't have enough content to
352:04
Speaker A
put in the video itself? Right? So this is a solution to that problem that you guys were encountering. Right? because now you can upload 24 seconds and if you get a that is higher then you will get pushed out but you have to increase your
352:16
Speaker A
comment ratio which is what I'm going to talk about now on how to increase it right so there's lots of ways to increase your comment ratio the main ways is basically making them feel emotion but what does that exactly mean
352:25
Speaker A
right make them feel an emotion right so the first thing you can do is you can basically do some type of uh hidden reference because you guys know that doing a CTA in a video always decreases retention there's going to be someone
352:37
Speaker A
who leaves when you do a CTA right unless Unless you are making it so it's a very high tension moment in your clip.
352:44
Speaker A
You guys will notice this with Mr. Beast, right? If Mr. Beast is doing some type of promotion where he's talking about Feast Bolts or something like that, right? What he does is he has someone behind him about to get hit by a
352:54
Speaker A
train and then before the person gets hit by a train, he says, "Before we get into that, let me talk about feasibles." And then the person in the background's like, you know, dealing with some type of challenge while he's talking about
353:04
Speaker A
his advertisement. This is a high value CTA. All right. This is a highv value CTA and you can use this the same thing in in short form if there's a high tension clip you're playing. So I'm going to talk about a couple different
353:16
Speaker A
niches and the clips you can use while you're doing a CTA. All right, so first of all, let's talk about ranking. Does anyone here do ranking? I know a lot of people in this in this in this uh server
353:24
Speaker A
do ranking. How many people do ranking here? A lot of people do ranking. You're scared to do ranking, dude. Ranking is a great niche to get into, guys. Ranking is a great niche. All right. Well, we're we're about ranking first. So, with
353:35
Speaker A
ranking, if you're trying to do any type of CTA, you should do it on the highest tension clip or right before the payoff, right? Do you guys remember the two CTA method, right? That is kind of valid for
353:47
Speaker A
this, but it's basically instead of going to be a visual and audio, it's going to be two visual CTAs instead. So, what you can do is you can basically in the beginning on the second clip, you put comment your favorite, you know,
353:59
Speaker A
number or comment your favorite clip and you'll just have a ton of people commenting their numbers. have it pop very slowly and subtly. Don't scream it in them. Also, what you can do is for the actual numbers itself, you can say
354:09
Speaker A
comment which one's your favorite or comment a laughing emoji if you like this as the actual um text itself for the caption. You can also at the very end with the second last payoff, right?
354:20
Speaker A
So, because you have 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 and then you do two and then one, right?
354:26
Speaker A
Because one's the actual payoff. right before one. What you can do is you can do some type of CTA again of like comment which one was your favorite and you would get a ton of people just commenting the numbers. And also another
354:37
Speaker A
thing you can do for the six seven in the chats guys. Another thing you can do is you can um right before the payoff as well, you should actually make the best clip the second to last one, right? So
354:50
Speaker A
if you make the best clip the second to last one, you'll get some comments saying like, "Hey, number two is definitely better than number one." You know these are basically all the type of CTAs you can do in ranking that's very
355:01
Speaker A
subtle and still get a lot of common ratios right so as the common ratios increase your AVD will increase your uh then your emotions will increase and then you will get more RPMs and YouTube will make more money all right so doing
355:14
Speaker A
any type of emotion like that will work very well right this falls underneath the rage bait category as well if you're like switching two in one so you make the second uh last clip the best payoff you will get people commenting that,
355:26
Speaker A
right? And it doesn't matter if they're angry, again, they're happy, they're sad, it doesn't matter if they're feeling an emotion, they're feeling uh a higher buying intense, which increases their RPM or our RPM, which increases YouTube's uh profit, right? And if
355:39
Speaker A
YouTube's profit increases, then we make more money. Capich? All right, cool. Now, let's talk about the Roblox niche, right? We talked about ranking. Let's talk about the Roblox niche.
355:51
Speaker A
And then we'll talk about Roblox rants because I know a lot of you guys do rants. and then we'll talk about commentary. Okay.
355:57
Speaker A
Is this recorded? I'm recording right now. Hopefully it doesn't like get messed up. All right, let's talk about Roblox. So, for Roblox, it's a little bit different because the audience is of course younger. I recommend doing some type of reference. For example, we have
356:10
Speaker A
a couple students in our program who do very special skins that get people to watch the video. For example, they do references to pop culture. They do references to, you know, memes and stuff that's going on right now. If you guys
356:23
Speaker A
are doing Roblox, guys, say 67 somewhere in your video, it's going to get pushed.
356:28
Speaker A
I promise you, you'll get people commenting it. Use 67. Uh, if you guys are doing Roblox, you know, doing any type of comment ratio where you're trying to increase the amount of people who are watching, if you say some type
356:39
Speaker A
of reference, you will get more people to watch. All right, but say six, seven in your video somewhere. I I promise you it helps. Uh, is is Sora dead? No, Sora is not dead. I'll talk about Sora later
356:49
Speaker A
as well. All right. Um, he leaked our sauce, guys. Come on. 67 method is is the most widely known method. Let's be real.
356:58
Speaker A
Um, but the other thing you can do to increase your comment ratio is basically uh you can basically just like comment if you want blank or comment if you think blank. Do not do the sub to like ratio or sub to comment uh like CTAs.
357:13
Speaker A
Those get you banned by the way, right? Don't don't do those. A lot of people, especially in the old seal of brain rot niche, got banned because they were doing this um CTA, right? So you guys know the CTAs where it's basically a
357:26
Speaker A
split screen, right? So let's say I'm I'm going to try to draw this for you guys with my chicken scratch. All right, so let's say you have this right here, right? And in the middle you have like a
357:33
Speaker A
sub here and then you have like a comment here. Have you guys seen these CTAs where it's like sub if you think if you want this character to win like team red or team blue comment? You guys have
357:42
Speaker A
seen this, right? So don't do this. All right? because this this can get you banned. Um, this is gotten a lot of people cooked because YouTube sees it as exploitation and spam. It's not, you know, it's not, but YouTube's AI is a
357:57
Speaker A
little gay right now. So, I would just be very careful of it. Be very careful of this. Um, yeah. Okay. Anyways, that's just like the main uh avoids. What about the giveaways? Don't do giveaways as well. All right. Don't do giveaways as
358:12
Speaker A
well. If you guys do any type of Roblox giveaways or saying uh comment this if you want, you know, blank Roblox, uh it just doesn't really work well. What I have seen worked well is comment how much Robux you have. Comment how much
358:25
Speaker A
Robux you have works. All right, but don't do a giveaway. Don't do a giveaway. Just if you ask a question, you won't get banned for that, right? Uh Josh knows. Josh knows, bro. If you guys do like, you know, comment how much
358:39
Speaker A
Robux you have, you will get a lot of people just commenting 000000 and it just increases your common ratio, right?
358:48
Speaker A
Increases your comment ratio exponentially. Um, no, don't say how much Robux they want. Don't say that because that will that will increase the spam and YouTube may think you're doing a giveaway. But if you ask how much they have, that is
359:03
Speaker A
different. Don't say how much you want. There's a very key difference and you will get banned if you do the other one, right? No, you won't get banned for numerical spam. That's not going to happen. But you will get spam if YouTube
359:13
Speaker A
thinks you're trying to do a giveaway. All right. Hopefully that makes sense. Now, let's go into the Roblox rants. All right. Um, when you guys are doing Roblox rants, a lot of you guys do basically past events that have happened
359:24
Speaker A
before. Do you guys remember when I show speed tried doing the jawbreaker challenge? Remember when I show speed ate the hot chip challenge? Remember back in 2025 when Blank did blank win when Right. So, if you guys are doing a
359:36
Speaker A
Roblox rants, I want you guys to use false information, right? Say something that's not real. Uh, it helps a lot. I'm I'm telling you guys, right? Doing false information gets people to comment. Uh, because people were like, "That didn't
359:50
Speaker A
happen or is that real or is this true?" And this gets people to basically Exactly. Make up stories. I'm not even joking. It's It's a Roblox rants, guys.
360:00
Speaker A
I know it may seem a little unethical. It's true. If you make up stories, you make up rants, stuff like that, it works so well. A lot of fake stories to get people to comment, it doesn't matter if
360:08
Speaker A
the story is true or not. It matters if the comment ratio is high enough. That is our goal. High comment ratios, high retentions. We increase those, we will get more views and make more money. All right? So, make up stories. You're
360:20
Speaker A
trying to trigger emotions. And you can do that through a wide array of things.
360:24
Speaker A
And what I recommend you guys really do is look at your competitors, see what worked for them, and do a similar story, but make it your own. For example, if you see a story of Aishio Speed eating the hot chip challenge and him having to
360:36
Speaker A
go to the hospital, replace I show speed with Jinxy, right? And just do the exact same thing. I'm telling you guys, it works so well. Replace I replace I show speed with Donald Trump and it'll work.
360:48
Speaker A
Telling you guys, it works so well. Um, so use that to your advantage and basically just make new stories with different people. How it feels to spread misinformation. You got a 12 likes on that on that image. It's funny. That's
361:02
Speaker A
funny, bro. Anyways, does that make sense, guys? Does that make sense? All right. I hope that makes sense, guys. Now, let's talk about the AI.
361:16
Speaker A
Faults. I'm going to put false info, guys. Fault info. All right. Lastly, let's talk about AI. I I like as as we keep going further and further on this like drawing board, you guys can see my handwriting just got worse and worse and
361:29
Speaker A
worse. All right. Um, let's talk about it's getting bigger. Yeah, I know. I know. That's what I always do, guys. You guys notice in all the videos, it just gets bigger and bigger and bigger.
361:40
Speaker A
All right, AI. AI has been popping right now. I'm actually not going to give you guys a niche because right now, um, we have a lot of students running it. I don't want to leak their niche, okay?
361:50
Speaker A
But um AI has been popping right now. And the best way to do AI, uh CTAs is make something very emotional that's happening, right? It's the same thing.
362:01
Speaker A
Uh if you're going to do an AI video of someone breaking into a house, make it so the context is a daughter is breaking into their mother's house because she was kicked out, you know, or uh a son is
362:14
Speaker A
trying to break into their parents house cuz he snuck out late at night. You know what I mean? If you're just making it so a robber is trying to break into a person's house, it just doesn't really evoke as that much emotion. You know
362:24
Speaker A
what I mean? So like if you guys are going to do some type of AI, make sure the story behind it is an emotional roller coaster. You know, animals, I'm not going to talk about animals because a lot of my students are are in that and
362:36
Speaker A
there's a lot of subniches there and I'm not going to leak it. I'm sorry guys.
362:40
Speaker A
I'm not going to leak my students subniche because those niches are are crushing right now. Can you give an example for a commentary niche? Yeah, AI commentary. You can do animal ranking commentary. You can do, you know, news
362:51
Speaker A
commentary. Anything like that works, guys. You don't I've had one student, bro. You guys remember when the Jamaica incident was happening, right? This is a little unethical. I actually didn't support this, but he did this. You guys remember when Jamaica was getting hit by
363:02
Speaker A
the hurricane? You guys remember that, right? Is the 101 membership paid? Yeah, it's my time.
363:09
Speaker A
Of course, it is. So, you guys remember when Jamaica was getting paid by the hurricane, right? So what he did, he made a ton of AI uh videos with the basically just like Jamaica hurricane. The videos got so
363:22
Speaker A
many views, news outlets contacted him asking to post the videos and it was AI and he actually got on national news for these AI videos uh of the hurricane, right? And he was getting hundreds of millions of views during this time
363:37
Speaker A
period. Uh so I'm telling you guys uh Mr. P got on national news. Yeah. So, yeah, there. Yeah. There. Yeah. Yeah.
363:45
Speaker A
Clark, you know, bro. You know, man. So, yeah. I mean, he got he got on national news uh for making an AI AI video. And I'm telling you guys, it's a little unethical, but you know, uh it it works
363:58
Speaker A
regardless. I'm saying what happened to the giveaway. I'm talking about that at the end of at the end of this call. Uh because I want to address that. Um because I know a lot of you guys hashtag whatever it takes. Never back down.
364:07
Speaker A
Never what. All right. That's everything I want to talk about for the main analytics.
364:15
Speaker A
You love that hoodie, don't you, bro? Guys, my girlfriend got it for me. It was like 12 bucks from Ross, so I love it. Of course, I love it.
364:23
Speaker A
Okay, I think that's pretty much all the info I wanted to talk about. Um, you know, lastly, before we kind of continue this further, let me zoom back in here so we can see the handwriting. I want to
364:32
Speaker A
talk about where we're moving into 2026 cuz 2026 we're going to have some new updates and YouTube's game is changing a lot right now especially with AI. So we're going to talk about this then we'll talk about the giveaway and then
364:43
Speaker A
we're going to open up the floor to Q&As's and just you know just general questions.
364:48
Speaker A
Okay, so first things first for 2026 YouTube is moving in the direction of AI. There's a big misconception that AI is getting getting banned. I've had a lot of questions of like, isn't YouTube's AI banning AI? Right? So, I've
365:03
Speaker A
heard a lot of people also saying like the AI detection software is getting messed up and they're banning AI channels. This is not true. Right? So, there's a big confusion where people think that this AI content is not
365:14
Speaker A
getting pushed when this is the content that's getting pushed the most right now. A lot of AI stories, a lot of AI content. YouTube CEO has even said themselves that um they are actually supporting AI and they will monetize AI
365:26
Speaker A
channels. You can straight up uh AI AI content is 100% monetizable. It is 100% monetizable. You can straight up make story clips and just straight upload them to YouTube without even editing anything. And if your video got a 10, you know, 10 million views, you
365:42
Speaker A
will get monetized and get in the program. All right? They are not cracking down on AI, guys. They are pushing it further. YouTube is not cracking down. They're cracking down on on a lot of these Roblox spam content
365:54
Speaker A
where uh they think you know people you people are doing giveaway scams, but YouTube AI is getting pushed so far right now. So if you guys like for example, there's a niche that I talked to with one of my students. I'm okay
366:07
Speaker A
talking about it because he's not running it anymore, but it still works very well. It's this it's just like uh this we show a really interesting clip and then you do an AI image of a drawing, right? And it and uh it just it
366:18
Speaker A
works so well. I don't know if you guys know what I'm talking about, but the the the AI industry right now is popping and in 2026, this is going to be the method.
366:27
Speaker A
So, if you don't have sore AI and you aren't getting used to generating these clips, start doing it now. All right?
366:33
Speaker A
Because a lot of my students are getting into this and they're already starting to make bank from this. All right? So, get into AI. That is the main thing I want to talk about. And guys, remember AI, are you talking about situation
366:45
Speaker A
draw? Yes, I'm talking about situation draw, Romeo. That's what I'm talking about. Um, so get into this now and learn this now before it's too late. And remember, AI is only going to get better. It's not going to get worse,
366:56
Speaker A
okay? It's not going to get worse. So if you guys want to get into this, tap in now. All right. This is the gold rush.
367:04
Speaker A
This is the gold rush right now. How do I How do you use altered content option or not? Yes, please always say altered content. If you don't, you won't get in the program and you will get demonetized because YouTube will think you're
367:16
Speaker A
scamming. There's there's a there is a setting in YouTube that says altered content. Is this made by a real person?
367:23
Speaker A
Does it show that a person is altered doing other actions? Turn it on if you're using AI. If you're using AI, if you're not using AI, you don't you don't need to worry about you can say no. But
367:32
Speaker A
if you're using AI, say yes. All right. It won't affect your views. It just lets YouTube know that this is AI content. It will not affect your views. Where is it at? It's somewhere in your YouTube settings. Just Just look at it. You'll
367:44
Speaker A
you'll find it. All right. But it does this account for AI voiceovers? No, it does not count for AI voiceovers. It only accounts for actual AI generated videos.
367:58
Speaker A
Yes, that setting right there. Thank you, Max. It says altered content. Everyone look in the chat where Max sent right there. That is exactly the setting you need to look for regardless. It doesn't matter if your um it doesn't
368:10
Speaker A
matter if your content is or against it. Always check the box boxes yes or no regardless if if it's a does it limit reach? It does not limit reach at all.
368:18
Speaker A
There is zero limit on reach. It's just a setting you need to have enabled if you want to keep your monetization.
368:24
Speaker A
What type of CTA can I use for Roblox rants? We already talked about that a little bit earlier. If you just use an interesting emotion, people will comment. If it's something interesting or it's like a false story, people will
368:34
Speaker A
comment. If you guys do a straightup CTA, um, like guys, comment if you think this is funny. You will see a huge dip in your uh in your your retention. So, don't do that for Roblox rants. Only do it like
368:46
Speaker A
if it's an interesting clip. All right, that's all the news I want to talk about today for um, you know, everything I want to talk about for the YouTube news.
368:54
Speaker A
I hope that was helpful. Before I get into talking about the giveaway and stuff because I've had a lot of people asking about it, does that answer, you know, does that helpful, guys? All that information that I just dropped for you
369:04
Speaker A
guys, was that helpful? Was it helpful, guys? So, we just talked about a lot of stuff.
369:10
Speaker A
All right. I'm so happy that it's helpful, guys. I'm very happy to see that. How much is inner circle? We'll talk about it in a second. We'll talk about in a second. Okay. Um, so I want to talk about the giveaway because a lot
369:20
Speaker A
of you guys, you know, have been asking about it. Like, where's the giveaway at, bro? You said you were doing a giveaway on November, you know, 31st. If you guys don't know, I got strep and a viral respiratory infection at the same time.
369:32
Speaker A
And then my girlfriend also had some problems when we had to go to the hospital big time. Like I was in and out of hospital for like three weeks when I was trying to run all my stuff. Luckily,
369:40
Speaker A
we do YouTube automation, so I was bringing in passive income on the side regardless. But um there's a a lot of people scamming giveaways. I know, bro.
369:48
Speaker A
Guys, be careful. Oh, hey, you're you're making a joke. Never mind, Max. Be careful. Also, the people who are DMing you guys. A lot of you guys have gotten scammed by random people on the Discord pretending to be me. Guys, my name is
369:59
Speaker A
Devin Cenats with no periods and no underscores. Don't get scammed. All right? I don't know how that happens, man. But like, I will never DM you. The only time I will ever DM anyone is if I see you're crushing it and I'll like I
370:10
Speaker A
will send you a video, right? Like for example, like I message uh like Mango. I don't know if Mango's in this VC right now, but I message Mango and I sent him like a straight up video of like, "Hey,
370:19
Speaker A
Mango, I saw you were crushing it in like the program. I wanted to talk to you to see if you were like maybe interested in like the program or something." Right? I will send a video to you, right? So, don't get scammed. I
370:28
Speaker A
will send like a straight up video like that. I know there's a lot of people.
370:31
Speaker A
Yo, we actually we actually we got the scammer's IP address, by the way. Someone's IP swapped them and we got his IP address, which is kind of funny. Um, anyways, I want to talk about the giveaway real quick. So, we're not doing
370:44
Speaker A
the exact giveaway like we were going to do before. Originally, we were going to do like a a $6,000 free mentorship giveaway. And because we got so many apps and we kind of got messed up, I wanted to still do something for you
370:55
Speaker A
guys, but it's not going to be the same thing. So, what we're doing now is we're going to be basically giving $1,000 off the mentorship to anyone who applies uh within the next uh you know, day or so
371:06
Speaker A
before Christmas. So, we're basically doing $1,000 off anyone, right? So, anyone who applies, we're doing $1,000 off. And also, for anyone who's in inner circle, I'm also giving you guys a credit as well to the program as well
371:18
Speaker A
for one-on-one. How much is it? You can apply and see. It's different for everyone. It's different for everyone.
371:23
Speaker A
You got to talk to my team and we can talk about it. But I'm giving a thousand dollars off to anyone who's in the program. All right? Anyone anyone who applies for the program, if you guys are already in the program, I'll give you
371:32
Speaker A
guys a straight up credit. So, if you want to apply for the program, you'll get a discount already. So, it'll be basically like if you if you paid $500 and you are you're an inner you're in inner circle right now. I'll basically
371:42
Speaker A
give you $1,500 off the program in total. So, if the mentorship is $1,000, I get it for free. It just depends. So, I'm asking you guys to apply and then see if it works, you know, cuz if you
371:52
Speaker A
qualify and it makes sense, then we can definitely get in the program and we can get you started. How often do you pay?
371:58
Speaker A
We do split payments, guys. If you guys need to do split payment, of course, we'd rather you pay in full because it makes you more committed, but you can do split payments as well, you know? It just completely depends on what your
372:10
Speaker A
situation is. Because at the end of the day, bro, if you are not in a position where the mentorship is a good spot for you, then I don't want to to work with you guys, you know, because if it if it
372:20
Speaker A
doesn't make sense and doesn't make sense. If it does make sense, then it does. For example, like Josh had to do two payments, you know, and that's okay, right? But I want to make sure that it makes sense for everyone. I'm not here
372:30
Speaker A
just trying to just like, you know, get you in and then like you spend all your money. I want to make sure it makes sense for you guys and you guys are in a position where the mentorship makes
372:37
Speaker A
sense for you, you know? So that's what I want to address the giveaway with. Do you guys do PayPal? We take anything, bro. If you want to send gold bars, you could take gold bars and got cash for the mentorship. It's
372:47
Speaker A
okay, Max. Use the free programs, bro. Guys, I have a lot of free course and course content and I drop a lot of info on YouTube and I do calls like this for you guys. Um, just so I can make sure
372:57
Speaker A
that you guys have all the info you need to monetize your channel and make as much money as you can. You know, a lot of people who are joining, they're already, you know, slightly monetized or they've already had channels before.
373:06
Speaker A
They've had success. Do we accept crypto? Of course we do. Yeah. 10 grams of gold, bro.
373:15
Speaker A
But does anyone have any questions from that? Here, I'll send a little link real quick for you guys if you guys want to get into it here.
373:29
Speaker A
You guys can apply here. When you guys go here, just scroll to the bottom and hit apply now. And then just just go.
373:33
Speaker A
It's like a quick little survey and then you know you you do it and my team will reach out within like 30 minutes. I sent it in the link or in the link in the chat if you guys want to go there. $67
373:43
Speaker A
for a course. Guys, I'm never going to sell a course in my life. Never. I will never sell a course in my life, bro.
373:48
Speaker A
Never. That's that's the I don't know why people do that, bro. I I can never.
373:54
Speaker A
Um I don't quite understand the part of the altered content. If you make AI content, say it's altered. If you don't make AI content, don't say it's altered.
374:02
Speaker A
Just make sure that box is checked. It won't limit views, but it'll just make sure that um you know you get into the program.
374:18
Speaker A
Yeah. But anyways, does anyone have any other questions by that before we move on to the Q&A?
374:24
Speaker A
What are the benefits of joining the YouTube Multietwork channel? Are you talking about the inner circle or um I we have a lot of people in inner circle right here right now. If you guys want to just actually do I should bring
374:37
Speaker A
some of you guys in here. Can you guys raise your hand? All the inner circle guys I can bring you in here and you guys can talk about it real quick cuz I know we have a lot of people in inner
374:42
Speaker A
circle. Like is Tony in here? Cooper's in here. Romeo's in here. Ian like Adam like let me get you guys in here real quick. Raise hand is disabled. Show request. Is it really allow requests from at everyone? Try now.
374:56
Speaker A
Let's get Cooper in here. Let's get Ekko in here. What's up, Cooper? Let's get Adam in here.
375:03
Speaker A
Can you guys just talk about the program real quick to just tell people if you liked it or not?
375:08
Speaker A
I mean, um, I'll say all the calls that we've had like the whole time in the inner circle, they're probably Echo is a guy. What the hell?
375:22
Speaker A
Yeah. What are you talking? That's funny, bro. I'm just saying though, the calls that I've had in the inner circle are probably like the best value I've ever had. Ever. Like, exactly.
375:37
Speaker A
Probably the best things about it. Yeah, dude. Here, Adam Cooper, do you guys want to say anything? And also want to get Romeo in here in a second.
375:47
Speaker A
Yeah. Yeah. So, first off, Devin is great, right? Like, he's going to help you scale your channel. He's going to know what to do.
375:56
Speaker A
He's going to know like he he's going to help you scale your channel first off, which is great. And that could already be within like the mentorship. That could be only it. But one of the main benefits and one of the things that's
376:08
Speaker A
been really helpful for me is now we actually have calls. like it it's not like we kind of like our own little community here where we kind of have like a we'll be in the calls together and we'll just be talking about like
376:18
Speaker A
what we're doing, what niches we're in, how we're growing, how we're scaling, how we're doing editing and being like with Adam, bro, Adam is killing it, right? Eco's Ekko's killing it. Like we got all these people who are killing it.
376:30
Speaker A
And so just being in that environment, I've never had that before. I've never had more than one person actually interested in YouTube, let alone actually making good money off of YouTube. So that is infinite value there. Let alone what Devon can say, let
376:43
Speaker A
alone what Devon can do for you. I appreciate you, Cooper. You should tell them about the runs, bro. The morning runs.
376:49
Speaker A
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, hey, full transparency, right? I'm not going to lie. Haven't been locked in as much recently. I lowkey Listen, I did not get all the value I wanted out of the membership because I didn't put the time
376:59
Speaker A
in. But Devin was saying, "Bro, start running every day." So now I've been running every day. And I actually today hit a new kind of not like PR, but I woke up and within 20 minutes I was running. So I'm getting better at my
377:12
Speaker A
habits and everything like that. So yeah, that's it's just been great to be surrounded by everybody. But yeah, it all starts with discipline, guys.
377:17
Speaker A
Like it it all starts with discipline. And if your discipline isn't, you know, completely dialed in, then you won't be able to be successful in this entire business model because it takes it takes uploading daily, right? If you guys
377:30
Speaker A
aren't uploading daily, that's the first step. if you aren't able to even like get on your computer or your phone, make a video every day, you know, it starts in the mind. And I want to talk about mindset after we do this kind of thing
377:40
Speaker A
and then we'll open up to Q&As's. But I want to let Adam talk real quick because we already did an interview with Adam. I think everyone saw it. But one upload a day is nothing. If you're not able to do like five uploads a day,
377:51
Speaker A
bro, what's the point? Because right now I am making like four to five videos every single day. If you aren't able to make at least one video in a day, what are you doing, bro? Lock in, man.
378:04
Speaker A
Literally. And Adam, you want to talk about your experience with the program a little bit too for everyone? And there'll be like a hundred people in here. Maybe they would be interested to hear your perspective, bro. The whole thing is straight up W.
378:16
Speaker A
Like you can see the video. Deon did a video like two days ago or was it yesterday with me? You can you can check it out, guys. I highly recommend it. And the whole experience is big W.
378:28
Speaker A
Let me get Nick in here, too. And then I don't I think I can only have five people in here at once. So, uh maybe Cooper and Ekko and Adam leave real quick and I can get them in here
378:37
Speaker A
because I can't Yeah, I can. I can. Okay. I appreciate it, guys. Let me get Nick in here.
378:43
Speaker A
All right, let me see. How do I How do I leave? I can I can disconnect you, I think.
378:48
Speaker A
Here. What's up, Nick? Hell, what's up? We were talking How long have you been in here, Nick? I don't know how long you've been in here for.
378:57
Speaker A
Oh, like in the call itself or in the server? In the call. In the Oh, I I I joined at the beginning, so I've been quietly listening.
379:04
Speaker A
Do you want to talk about your experience? I know we had a call yesterday bro.
379:08
Speaker A
Yeah. Yeah. Um Yeah. Guys, uh this is a great place to be. And no matter whether you're in like the general or the inner or the winner circle, um I joined in because I wanted to learn more about
379:19
Speaker A
going viral on YouTube and making content for the sake of entertainment. Um I come from a different content creation background where I was selling products and stuff but yeah I'm trying to learn how to do um content just for
379:30
Speaker A
the sake of entertainment and get that AdSense bag and build systems around that. Um so I myself have barely posted on YouTube um and gotten success. So I was at I started at a beginner level but um you know Devon will work with you no
379:44
Speaker A
matter what level you're at whether you are like already cooking on YouTube or you haven't started at all and you don't know what you're doing. Um yeah and I think also um echoing what everyone else is saying um Adam Cooper and all them
379:58
Speaker A
you know very supportive community and um I would say that yeah everyone's doing like you know everyone's doing so well in it but yeah like it's um you know it's a great environment to be in and honestly a lot of you guys can eat
380:12
Speaker A
it's not I know it's like competitive in a way that like you know you're trying to get the most views out of whoever and get the most attention but of course like you know everyone can eat and um as
380:21
Speaker A
long as you put the work in um and yeah, I think u it's a great environment to be in and so yeah, it's it's a it's it's definitely um you know, I'm still I'm still waiting to see the results and get
380:31
Speaker A
monetized, but um you know, I I definitely feel good about it and I that I'm I'm well on track to get to that point and I'm learning lots along the way. So yeah, guys, w you Devin, I I appreciate you, Nick, bro. I
380:44
Speaker A
appreciate that you talking about it, man. I mean, uh, dude, yesterday when we talked, I'm not going to share any details anyone, of course, but dude, like I really appreciated to talk with you and, um, just in general, bro, it's
380:54
Speaker A
just been a pleasure working with you. It's so fun getting on calls with you guys, especially you, Nick. I love getting on calls with you, bro.
381:00
Speaker A
Likewise. Likewise. Yeah. All right. Catch you later, Ben. All right, Josh, do you want to say anything real quick and then I'm going to move on to the Q&A?
381:07
Speaker A
Yeah. Yeah, sure. Can you guys hear me? Yep. All right. Pretty much all I was going to say I was in 30k V jail for like two months and when I joined after my second call with Devon I learned a lot of sauce
381:18
Speaker A
and also just motivation in general in the in the inner circle has helped me push harder. I went from one video a day for like two months. I was already pretty locked in, not going to lie. But uh now I'm double locked. I made 12
381:29
Speaker A
videos yesterday. Um I mean I'm gonna make I'm gonna make I'm gonna make 10 more videos a day. I already posted three videos scheduled ahead of time. Like I'm ready.
381:36
Speaker A
12 videos. That's crazy. Yeah. 12 video. I worked 10 hours straight for you guys. I I worked 10 hours straight. I want to do it again.
381:41
Speaker A
Like, this is the effort it takes, guys, to lock in, guys. He's a machine. Josh is crazy.
381:47
Speaker A
Yeah, I'm responding to a lot of you, trying to help as much you guys as I can because I'm trying to pass it along. But anyway, I went from 30K view jail all the way up to I hit three million views
381:54
Speaker A
on a video this week and I got multiple million view videos this week. So, W Deon, dread you Josh. Thank you very much, man.
382:04
Speaker A
Um, Lost, uh, do you want to say anything real quick before? Um, yeah, sure, sure, sure. Yeah. Okay, man.
382:10
Speaker A
Like when I started I started YouTube around two years ago and like I just got monetized 3 months back and then in the second month I joined this this program and like it's been so great. All thanks to Devin.
382:31
Speaker A
How much can you tell them how much you made USD because you made a lot of money last month.
382:37
Speaker A
Yeah, the first month it was like 4k in just 15 days something and then next month it was 11k 11k USD guys.
382:48
Speaker A
Yeah. USD. This month I have done like around 8.7K. Yeah. Yeah. So guys, we have a lot of people crushing it, man. I appreciate you you talking real quick and uh I appreciate all you guys, man. All you guys in inner
383:01
Speaker A
circle. I'm gonna move you back to the audience real quick and then D I appreciate you talking though. I appreciate you man.
383:09
Speaker A
Okay. So yeah guys I mean we have a lot of amazing people in this community man.
383:14
Speaker A
And you know before I even talk about anything else like I started this entire YouTube channel you guys have all found me from you know out of a place of of almost loneliness. You know, if you guys look at my second video on this channel,
383:27
Speaker A
um, in the description, it literally was just like, I want I need YouTube friends. That's that's that's what it says. You know, I started off with ecom.
383:34
Speaker A
I started talking and like I started out of a place of loneliness because I never had um you found me from the money mind.
383:41
Speaker A
That's funny. Uh, yeah. But I I really made this from a place of loneliness, man. cuz I always had like one friend who really did YouTube and it just being able to start this community and being able to add everyone and say, "Hey
383:55
Speaker A
everyone, upload every day." And we have everyone commenting saying or and messaging saying, "Hey, I uploaded today. I uploaded today. Uploaded today." Like I was never around people like that, you know? I never had I did this by myself from ground zero, you
384:06
Speaker A
know? I started this by myself. I studied, you know, channels for hours. I I would go to sleep listening to Mr.
384:12
Speaker A
Beast Bro. like I I I did all this by myself before I I started any of this community, you know, and this community has not just propelled everyone else in this inner circle, but me forward too, you know, cuz like I know I know a lot
384:25
Speaker A
of stuff about YouTube, but because we have so many people in this community, I learned from them, you know, like that like uh thing I talked about collaborations, like inner circle learned that and taught me that, you know. Um have I met Mr. Beast? I've had
384:38
Speaker A
one conversation with them. I asked them one question. It was in like a group of hundred people and I was able to ask him one question, but I haven't like really met him. He probably doesn't remember me. It was like a, you know, but
384:49
Speaker A
regardless, man, I mean, we we started this so long ago. Look at this. Look at the look at this right here.
384:58
Speaker A
Yeah, I posted this video January 3rd, 2024. You got this, Devon. It's time to succeed. Two years later now. You know, we're in a completely different position. Wow, that's crazy. You got on other channels, too. I've posted like,
385:10
Speaker A
you know, updates and stuff like that as well, just for me as well. But yeah, I mean, I I just want to let you guys know like I appreciate you guys, man. I appreciate you guys a lot just for for
385:19
Speaker A
for letting me, you know, be able to have this community. Three years ago, I was getting kicked out of my house. Now I own a you know, my own apartment. Uh, you know, I live with my fiance and, you
385:30
Speaker A
know, we make, you know, we make six figures a month right now. I'm able to help, you know, hundreds of students, you know, scale up and I've changed so many people's lives and it's thanks to you guys and, you know, everything as
385:42
Speaker A
well. So, I appreciate you guys. Like, I had to talk with Adam and I'm sure you guys have seen the interview, bro. But like, uh, with that interview with Adam, bro, like I was driving, uh, the other day to my grandparents, you know, just
385:54
Speaker A
to go say hi to them and stuff. And um when I was driving, I was showing my my fiance the interview with Adam and she was like really happy for us and stuff too. And I don't know, it just it it it
386:07
Speaker A
makes me very happy, man. So, thank you guys. I appreciate it. Anyways, I'm going to move on to Q&As's guys. Um but yeah, I mean, if you guys want to join the program again, just you can go to
386:16
Speaker A
the mentorship and join, but in general, I just I appreciate all you guys, man. I appreciate you guys a lot. Thank you very much. Anyways, let's do Q&A's, guys. Does anyone want to talk about anything else? We're going from a lot of
386:25
Speaker A
emotions right now. Back to just YouTube sauce. So, let's go back to YouTube sauce. How do you get the best AI videos? Um, what do you think about the fitness niche? I think it's a little small. I don't think there's a lot of
386:35
Speaker A
money to be made there. All right, I'm going start reading these questions here. Bro, I have a 100K dead channel on YouTube with zero copyright strikes. Its views have dropped. If I create a new YouTube channel on the same
386:50
Speaker A
Gmail on that channel, will the trust score be good or bad? It'll be fine. Um, just because a channel's trust score is bad does not mean the Gmail's trust score is bad. So, it's okay. Um, you can make as many channels as you want on new
387:00
Speaker A
Gmails. But guys, what I would recommend is I would recommend you guys make new Gmails when you're making these channels. What I do is I have a umbrella Gmail where I basically make myself a manager in all these channels and then I
387:14
Speaker A
make separate Gmails where I make these channels. Usually, I make them in groups of six six so I don't lose all my channels in case something gets terminated cuz I have different LLC's. I run so I minimize my risk and um you
387:26
Speaker A
know if one gets banned all of them will get banned but because I run underneath different LLC's I've had times where I've lost like three or four channels in one go you know so um it will um be a
387:36
Speaker A
little more difficult if you're scaling different LLC's but right now just you know scale with one channel and you can use different emails because I'm sure everyone has access to multiple emails.
387:45
Speaker A
Why is the price different for everyone for the mentorship? Cuz everyone's in different circumstances. You know, some people get paid $3,000 a month and maybe they don't want to invest all $3,000 into a mentorship, but they can pay
387:56
Speaker A
1,500 this month and 1,500 next month. You know what I mean? So, that's why I say the price is different for everyone because everyone's in a different circumstance, you know? Um, so that that's why the price is different for
388:07
Speaker A
everyone. Spirituality niche, very niche. Um, good money though if you are the biggest competitor cuz you're going to get a lot of people in the US, especially if it's motivation like Andrew Tate, David Gogggins, uh, you know, Alexi, those
388:23
Speaker A
would be really high. Mr. Beast, those are really high, uh, you know, US audiences, which will increase your RPM.
388:30
Speaker A
For shorts, not really. I wouldn't really recommend it. Let me show you. Holy questions. I know. I'm I'm trying, bro. Do I have to use my real face for verifying my channel? If you look like a child, don't do it. uh use an ID or if
388:41
Speaker A
you don't have an ID, use your parents ID. If you could talk about yourself from five years in the past, what is one piece of advice you would give him? It's a great question, man. Um I would say,
388:52
Speaker A
let me think. Five years ago, how old was I? I was 14. I would cut out distractions a lot sooner. I used to play a lot of video games. Like a lot. I used to play a lot of video games, bro. I was a Fortnite
389:08
Speaker A
goat. I actually got top two in a cash cup one time. Like I I I was very very good at Fortnite and I put a lot of time into it. And if I put that time into just learning the algorithm, I probably
389:20
Speaker A
would maybe be at like 5 billion views a month right now. But we're at 1.8 billion views this month. Still good progress, but I probably would have became financially free a lot sooner.
389:30
Speaker A
Um, but you know what? I think it's good that I played Fortnite back then, too, because like it let me be a kid, bro.
389:36
Speaker A
You know, you know, you can you can enjoy life, too. You know what I'm saying? Do you think the Minecraft niche is still good? It's an amazing niche to get into, bro. Minecraft is still a great niche to get into. How you join
389:45
Speaker A
inner circle? Here, I'll I'll send this to you, bro. Do you still use Verloi? If not, what should I use? Usually, I just look for competitors. Ver still works. Let me share with you. Ver still works. Um, but
390:01
Speaker A
what you could do is just go doom scrolling on shorts. Honestly, dude, I should make should I make a niche tab for you guys? I feel like a lot of you guys are always finding niches and maybe you guys can share them. Maybe I'll make
390:12
Speaker A
a niche tab for you guys. Like, so you guys can all just share niches like in the text channel. You know what I mean?
390:16
Speaker A
Like we have like general, ask Devon, wins, student wins, analytics, mentorship. Like we have like a niche tab here so you guys can just share your niches and see what's up. Um, got you Devon. I didn't know to answer.
390:28
Speaker A
I appreciate you, man. Um, what do you think about the survival island niche? Invoking different emotions. It's good, but uh for shorts, it's a little bit difficult. Does deleting your channel uh affect your draw score of your Gmail.
390:41
Speaker A
No, it does not. It's not affect your How you doing inner circle? I sent the link here. I I'll send it again for you, bro.
390:48
Speaker A
Uh what if I do a riddles in Roblox rants? I don't think that's going to do very well. Seems very niche. And a lot of people in Roblox aren't that smart.
390:54
Speaker A
So, riddles aren't aren't really going to do that well. I don't think. Uh you got to remember like the audience is children and a lot of them like don't really they can't even really speak that well let alone like understand like
391:03
Speaker A
basic questions. That's why the story lines work so well for very popular people if you keep the English guys when you're doing commentary make sure that your reading level is at a third or fifth grade reading level. And let me
391:15
Speaker A
show you guys a great way to do this here. Let me share my screen you guys real quick and let me show you. Wait, I can't share my screen. Are you kidding me? Wait, what? No, never mind. a
391:26
Speaker A
second. So, if you guys go to like your Google and you just go to look up at like reading level uh uh just reading level calculator, you'll get like uh grade it should be grade reading level grade reading level calculator. Uh
391:45
Speaker A
you'll see something like this and like you can copy and paste your script into here and it'll tell you what reading level you are. Um, so like let's say you're in like uh you're trying to make a script, you put it in here, it'll say
391:57
Speaker A
like third or fifth grade reading level. If it says like above like ninth grade, you're you're it's too advanced. Make it dumber, right? And that's no no offense to anyone. It's just you want to make sure as much people can understand what
392:07
Speaker A
you're doing, you know? So like make sure your reading level is at a very high or very low level so people can understand it. I think the average reading level in in America is like fifth grade. So yeah. here. Let me go
392:21
Speaker A
down. Is it safe to buy a monetized channel? Generally, I wouldn't I'm not going to speak on that because it's just like it's it's a risk. It's always going to be a risk buying channels. I don't like doing that because I can just I can get
392:33
Speaker A
a channel monetized in like two weeks, you know? So, like I don't really worry about it. Deon is my channel commentary.
392:40
Speaker A
A channel is commentary and it's good example for everyone to review if you don't mind. I'll do channel reviews maybe another time. Today I want to do more general Q&A because we have 60 65 questions, bro. That's a lot of
392:52
Speaker A
questions, man. Um, what if you're a high schooler? You can verify an ID. Guys, you need to be 13 years or older to get monetized on YouTube. The age limit is 13 or older. If you're under the age of 13, then you need a parent's
393:04
Speaker A
consent. But if you're over the age of 13, you can use a video verification.
393:08
Speaker A
It's just a lot of you guys look like kids and because a lot of you guys look like kids, you will not get uh into the the program because you look like a kid even though you're older, right? So,
393:18
Speaker A
that's why I recommend using an ID or a parent's ID. And you can use as many IDs as you want, bro. It doesn't matter as long as you just verify that you're a real person.
393:26
Speaker A
Um, is it monetizable if I take AI videos from Tik Tok and I add AI voice to it? Yeah, but the creator may find you and then, you know, strike you down.
393:33
Speaker A
So, should be careful of that. Um, for reused content, if you unlist all the videos for an appeal, can you get monetized? No. Uh, because YouTube can see all your videos on the back end.
393:52
Speaker A
So, even if you unlist all your videos and you get a strike or something like that, it's actually the worst thing you can do. The best thing you can do if you get a strike or you get an appeal is
394:00
Speaker A
leave the video public and fight the appeal, right? And I'm going to be making a video on appeal scripts soon. I just I haven't gotten to it because I've been busy with all the channels that I've been running and my of course my
394:09
Speaker A
students. Um so, you know, I'll make an appeal video for you guys soon if that would be helpful. How do you break from distraction? I eliminate it. I eliminate it. Um I'm a bit of an extremist when it
394:19
Speaker A
comes to this stuff. So, you guys don't have to live the life the way I live, but you know, like I don't talk to anyone outside of YouTube and my fiance.
394:28
Speaker A
You know, all my day ones, I didn't switch up on them. I just don't talk to them. You know, I don't play video games. I don't watch anything on YouTube that is not related to bettering myself.
394:36
Speaker A
Um, you know, just like I just eliminate it because you should have a why, right?
394:42
Speaker A
I was actually talking to one of my good friends, uh, Preston, and I also had this conversation with two other students yesterday as well, and this kept coming up, so I'll mention it now.
394:52
Speaker A
A man with a very strong why can overcome anyhow, right? If you have a reason of why you're doing this, why you're scaling this YouTube channel, why are you trying to make money, right? If you have a strong why, you can overcome
395:06
Speaker A
anyhow. And that's why I eliminate anything that does not get me toward my why. For example, my motivation for all of this is getting a trillion lifetime views.
395:18
Speaker A
That's my goal. One trillion lifetime views. I'm at like 27 mill or billion right now, right? My goal is one trillion lifetime views. Is me playing Fortnite gonna get me to one trillion lifetime views? If I'm making content,
395:30
Speaker A
yeah, if I'm playing for fun, probably not. So, I'm not going to do it, you know? Uh, and I eliminate any relationships in my life or any people, any connections, any conversations that does not get me toward that goal, right?
395:42
Speaker A
And I'm dialed in, right? I I get, dude, I get companies coming to me all the time offering me equity deals. I get, you know, $10,000 brand deals. I get crypto gambling deals for all the views I get. Because you know when you're
395:55
Speaker A
getting billions views a month, every company wants to work with you, right? And there's a lot of really crappy companies out there who will spend money on you because you're getting views, right? And I say no to them because if
396:06
Speaker A
it's not going to better me, I'm already in a good financial position, right? If it's not going to better me in terms of my goal, then I will not say yes to it.
396:14
Speaker A
I will I say no more than yes. Now, if you guys know who Alex Ramosi is, he has this quote or this saying he says where ignore the woman in the red dress. If you guys have watched the Matrix,
396:24
Speaker A
there's this part in the Matrix where like uh you there's a woman in the red dress and he basically has to keep avoiding her and keeps saying no to her, right? And every single time he goes back into it, the person becomes more
396:35
Speaker A
and more attractive, right? This applies to your business as well, right? If you are getting opportunities, you're seeing niches, this is called shiny object syndrome. A lot of you guys are jumping from Roblox to Roblox rants to trying
396:47
Speaker A
this, trying this to, oh, I'm going to go start a drop shipping store. I'm going to start day trading, bro.
396:52
Speaker A
Stop jumping around and locking on one thing and focus on it. If you put your attention toward one thing, you will make a lot more money, right? And when I started focusing and eliminating all my distractions, even when I was in school,
397:04
Speaker A
bro, years ago, when I was in school, it was like three years ago now. I like people were around me trying to like goof off and ask questions, bro. I was in a hallway listening to like YouTube podcasts, bro. If I was at the lunch
397:14
Speaker A
table, I was looking at my analytics and I was very like I was a captain of the soccer team, bro, as well, you know, and I I played soccer. But at the same time, it's like if someone was talking to me
397:24
Speaker A
and it wasn't related to benefiting me in any way, it sounds bad, but if it's not helping me, then I'm not going to progress, you know? And I'm not saying like don't have a relationship with your mom because she's not bettering you.
397:36
Speaker A
Like have a relationship with your family and stuff, bro. But like if it's some random person or like a random friend who's like just talking about some random BS, like I just I don't deal with it. You know what I mean? I hope
397:45
Speaker A
that answered your question, bro. I know that was long and in depth, but I've been actually having to answer that question for my students a lot. So, I wanted to go in more depth with it. Um, do you think the horror niche is good? I
397:55
Speaker A
think body cam niche is good. Horror niche, not so much. Is it monetizable if I get taken a Okay, you already asked that question. Hold up.
398:11
Speaker A
I've been working for two months my channel history to build a monetization but it still says establishing. Any way to fix it? Contact support. That's what I would say. Please Evan, what if I already answered the question as well.
398:22
Speaker A
All right, I'm going to scroll down actually like pretty far now because let me see here cuz I already answered the question. You guys are asking me the same question.
398:34
Speaker A
All right. Uh, does uploading a long form video on a short channel help build trust score? It does. Um, slightly, not like too much, but if if you are uploading videos just in general, you should, guys, you should be uploading on
398:45
Speaker A
every single metric that YouTube wants you to upload on. So, like there's community posts, there's long form, there's short form, there's live streams. You know, you don't have live streams don't really increase your trust score if I'm going to be sharing you,
398:56
Speaker A
but like you should use community posts. I'm actually I'm going to be making a whole video on community posts cuz using community posts are so so important to uh maximize your trust score and maximize your monthly audience. I got a
399:09
Speaker A
lot of my students basically using AI community post and it helps them scale so quickly.
399:14
Speaker A
So use community post, bro. What about the skull niche? It still works. Verlo was not a sponsor by the way. I had an affiliate with them but Verlo was something that I still worked with. I still use Verilla. Ver is a great
399:29
Speaker A
company. I even know the CEO who works there. Like he was a great guy.
399:43
Speaker A
Um, do you apply do you apply the setting for your YouTube channel that shadowbanned and did it get it fixed? It did. Yeah, it you guys I'm not going to give you guys information if it doesn't work for me. I'm not I'm not just going
399:55
Speaker A
to tell you to do something if it doesn't work. You know what I'm saying?
399:59
Speaker A
Czech Republic shorts RPMs. I have no idea, bro. It's probably pretty low. How do you make the best Roblox rants?
400:05
Speaker A
You have to look at your competitors and make similar rants to them. Makeup stories. You're a great guy, Devin W. I appreciate you, man. Thank you very much for that. All right, guys. I answered a lot of questions just now. Um, does
400:16
Speaker A
anyone have any other questions real quick? I've already answered like all the Verlo AI stuff and all the Finding Me stuff. Anyone have any other questions before I I end this real quick because I'm going to go talk to some
400:25
Speaker A
students now. Um I'm going to explain how to escape out of each view jail going from zero to 10 to 30 to 100 to 10 million and so on and so on because each option is different than the other.
400:37
Speaker A
Escaping 30k view jail is a completely different ballgame than escaping 100 million view jail because there's different rules and sets that applies to your specific channel. And of course I won't be able to go over every single niche because we'd be here for maybe 10
400:49
Speaker A
hours. But I want to explain everything in detail, at least to help you understand how to escape your current view jail and hopefully make you more money and get you more views. And if you don't know who I am, my name is Devon
400:57
Speaker A
Tenth. I'm a view maximizer. Over the course of the past 8 years, I've been just grinding content. And this month alone, we hit 1.5 billion views. I currently run close to 37 different channels right now. As you can see here,
401:09
Speaker A
we are running a lot of channels at the moment. So, in this video, I'm going to kind of explain it to you, and hopefully this will help you a little bit. So, when we think of the word viewjail, what
401:16
Speaker A
does this actually mean? Well, a view.j jail is really just YouTube saying that they don't feel comfortable giving us this amount of views because they're not satisfied with the work that we are outputting because in the end we are in
401:28
Speaker A
a contract with YouTube. YouTube wants to have the best quality content to make money from advertisers and we as content creators I'm going say content C C stands for creator want to give YouTube the best content to make them the best
401:42
Speaker A
money. And then in the middle of this we have advertisers. So, I want to kind of explain a little bit more about how advertisers work with YouTube so you can better understand why you're stuck in your view jail because it all sucks with
401:52
Speaker A
it all starts with advertisers. So, at the end of the day, YouTube only wants one thing and it's not the best content.
401:58
Speaker A
It's not getting the people on the platform the longest. YouTube wants one thing and it is to make money. YouTube is a business just like every other platform because YouTube knows that if they make more money, they can grow and
402:10
Speaker A
as a business what do they want to do? They want to grow. So, how does YouTube actually make money? Because in order if we understand this part we can understand how we can help YouTube because remember like before we are in a
402:20
Speaker A
contract with YouTube right now as content creators we are trying to help YouTube and in order to help YouTube we need to make them money. So how can we make YouTube the most amount of money, right? So how does YouTube make money?
402:31
Speaker A
First, YouTube makes money through advertisers. Advertisers, people like me and you or people like companies, they spend on money on Google ads and then the Google ads is sent to the YouTube and that's the ads that actually play in
402:42
Speaker A
videos like this one or videos like anywhere else and short videos doesn't really matter. Ads ads are sent through YouTube and that's how YouTube makes money through AdSense, right? And then YouTube takes a portion of this AdSense and then gives us the content creators
402:57
Speaker A
the rest of the revenue. That's how YouTube makes money. It's basically a profit share always. And YouTube unknows that if they get more advertisers on their platform and the advertisers spend more money then they are going to make
403:10
Speaker A
more money and we are going to make more money as well. This is very fundamental to understand because people always talk about views, views, views, views, views.
403:16
Speaker A
And they don't talk about the business behind getting views because in the end of the day, we're trying to make money.
403:21
Speaker A
And if we understand this, we can pretty much understand everything else about breaking view jails. Because if we can gift YouTube more advertisements and more money, what is YouTube going to do?
403:32
Speaker A
They're going to give us more views, which is going to give us more money as well. It's pretty simple if you think about it. But most people are kind of behind the wall of views. They don't think about the while line after which
403:42
Speaker A
is the business behind those views. So how can we actually get more money for YouTube? Well, there's two ways. The first thing is understanding length of videos. So the longer a video is, the more advertisements you can put inside
403:56
Speaker A
of that video. The second thing you can do is the this is for long form, by the way, for long form content. For long form, the longer a video is, the more advertisements you can put in it, which
404:06
Speaker A
makes YouTube more money. The second thing is if you have short form content shorts, the more high quality and the more reach you can get for this video can make you the most money. Now, these are very different because on short form content,
404:24
Speaker A
views equals money. On long form content, views plus very long average view durations equals money. You can have a video that's an hour long and has 1 million views, but there's tons of ads in it and it can make someone 50 or
404:39
Speaker A
$60,000 compared to another channel that is maybe only 8 minutes long and maybe it gets 50 million views. That shorter video or sorry, that longer video that's one hour long will make YouTube more money because more advertisements can
404:52
Speaker A
put more ads in that video which makes what? YouTube more money. So, if you're trying to make the most amount of money on YouTube possible, then you need to do this strategy. But remember, we're focusing on view jails. And view jails
405:05
Speaker A
comes from shorts. And remember, views equates to money on shorts. So, if you're stuck in view jails, that's YouTube saying to you, you as the content creator, hey, your videos suck and we don't want to push you out
405:17
Speaker A
because your videos suck and you're not making us money. That's what YouTube is saying. So, how do we fix this? We make YouTube more money, which means we get more views. So, how do we optimize for advertisements to push us more money to
405:30
Speaker A
get more views? Because remember, it is a is a conditional relationship. More ads equals more views. More views equals more ads. It's the same thing. So, there's a couple key points you need to understand for your shorts. So, I'm
405:41
Speaker A
going to put a little star next to this. This is probably the most point important point of this video. Please rewatch this again if you don't understand this part.
405:49
Speaker A
Make sure when you're uploading videos on shorts, take notes. You want to upload at least 32 second videos.
405:55
Speaker A
There's two reasons for this. The first reason is there was a study conducted by YouTube, by Google AdSense, and by advertisers where 32 second shorts yielded more results for advertisers.
406:08
Speaker A
Let me say that again. Advertisers made more money off 32 second videos. Now, what does that mean for us? That means if we upload 32 second plus videos, advertisers are going to be willing to give us more money, which is going to
406:22
Speaker A
bring us what? More views. is a symbiotic relationship. So, if we get more views, we're going to be uploading longer videos. 32 seconds plus. On top of that, on a little side note here, let me put a little thing right here. So, um
406:36
Speaker A
ads like 32 seconds. The other thing is music deals because on music deals, guess what? If you have a 32 second plus video, music deals are actually willing to spend more money on you as well because the same study was
406:55
Speaker A
conducted with advertisers, Google AdSense, and YouTube with music royalty companies. And they got more plays on their songs when they had people uploading 32 second videos. And what do music royalty companies want? They want one thing, for people to listen to their
407:11
Speaker A
music. Remember, we are business owners. We're not content creators. We are business owners in a platform that is giving us the opportunity to bring them more money to give us a commission of that. We get 70% commission, they get
407:23
Speaker A
30%. So for music royalties, it's the same thing. If we upload 32 second videos, music royalties are going to pay us anywhere from 5x to 10x our average RPM. So you can go from 01 RPM on music royalties to 0.2 or even.5 RPM. And if
407:42
Speaker A
you want the best music royalty company, I would recommend using Duna Music. I'll leave it in the first link in the description. And they give the best RPM.
407:49
Speaker A
I'm just gonna be straight straight up with you guys. All right, that's the first thing, 32 seconds. The second thing they want is people to actually watch their video all the way through.
407:58
Speaker A
There's lots of different metrics with YouTube. There's like swipe ratio, retention, average view duration, demographic, trust score. Um, I could keep going, but YouTube also has a key metric that they actually stay hidden on the analytics, and that is rewatch all
408:13
Speaker A
the way through. So, if you actually want to calculate the retention of your video, let's say you upload a 32 second video, right? If you divide it by 32, you're going to get a what? A 100% retention.
408:25
Speaker A
YouTube doesn't actually give us this analytic, but if we just do the math, then we can pretty much just, you know, get the video. The equation for this, by the way, if you want to break it down, it's AVD, average view duration, divided
408:35
Speaker A
by length of video. I'm just going to put L equals R, which is retention. I'll put RE because there's lots of different Rs. R equals retention. So, AVD divided by length of video equals retention. So, what does this mean for us? YouTube
408:49
Speaker A
wants people to rewatch the video, which means if we are getting over 100% retention, that means that YouTube is happy and they're going to push it out to more advertisers because they trust people more. Because there is a trust
409:00
Speaker A
equation with YouTube and pretty much every other platform. The more time you spend watching a video, the more time you trust it. Just like for example, you watching this video gives you more trust in me because I'm giving you so much
409:12
Speaker A
information. You see how this is kind of going? The more you watch this, you're like, "Oh, oh, because I'm giving you real information here. It's a trust, right?" So the more time people watch your shorts, the more time that YouTube
409:24
Speaker A
is going to trust you to give advertisers, which is going to give you more views and more money, which means you need to be over 100%. Not at 100%.
409:31
Speaker A
You want to be over 100%. So for example, if you're getting 32 out of 32 second video, that's good, but you should be aiming for a 33 out of 32 second video, which gives you an retention, I think. Wait, let me check.
409:48
Speaker A
33 divided by 32 103%. Whoops. 103% retention, which is still over 100% by the way. And this basically gives us the roadblock of or the road map of saying, okay, we have people staying on the video for 32 33 seconds out of 32. So,
410:06
Speaker A
it's 103%. We have more advertisers coming to our our short, which means YouTube's going to give us more views because YouTube understands that they're going to make more money from your short. Remember when you're looking at the revenue on your shorts, let's say
410:20
Speaker A
you make $1,000 off your short, which is pretty great, but $1,000 that's actually really around a, like500 or, $300 because YouTube's like a portion of that money. Just you don't see it because YouTube is like a it's a
410:32
Speaker A
really it's a 7030 split. You get 70%. The other 30% you could be making that goes straight back to YouTube, baby, because they start making money that way. So, the biggest thing that most people struggle with on YouTube is a
410:43
Speaker A
dip, right? You basically are getting a lot of views and then it goes down and you don't know how to bring it out of it. And don't worry, you're not the only person who struggles with this. There are people like Mr. Beast who even
410:54
Speaker A
struggle with this on a mass scale. Some days he's getting 150 million views a day. Other days he's getting 50 million, which is 300% less than his current day before. Right? So, in this video, I want to explain how to keep it a little bit
411:04
Speaker A
more stable and understanding the nature of YouTube so you know how YouTube works. I'm also a little bit going to go talk about um how long form and short form kind of interact with each other because people don't really utilize both
411:15
Speaker A
of them to their full capacity and if you utilize both of them you could be maximizing your revenue. I'll be showing a couple examples of channel analytics of some of our students and how we are using long form and short form together
411:24
Speaker A
to maximize your revenue getting $50,000 a month on some channels. So let's get straight into it. So first I want to show you Mr. Beast's past 30 days of analytics. You can see here he had a peak around a month ago at 153 million
411:39
Speaker A
views in one day and he had a drop all the way down to 54 million views. That is a 300% dip. And now 54 million views sounds like a lot because it is. But I want you guys to imagine that you're
411:52
Speaker A
getting for example 1 million views and then it drops to 3 million or sorry you're getting 3 million views and then it drops to 1 million. Right? A lot of people feel this urge of like oh gosh I'm doing something wrong. Right? And
412:03
Speaker A
that's not entirely true. If you look at a lot of big creators, for example, we look at like Zack D. Films, right? The same thing happens over a longer time horizon, right? His views are not consistent. And you will notice this for
412:16
Speaker A
a lot of creators. Views will not be consistent. For example, 151 million views, 30 million views. This is in the same month period. Ignore this giant drop. Looks like he privated a video or something. But you can see here that
412:28
Speaker A
that is a 500% drop, right? And if you're getting, for example, a 100,000 views and then it drops to 30,000, it's the exact same thing just on a smaller scale. So you have to understand that on YouTube, this is nature, right? You will
412:44
Speaker A
see dips, you will see drops. Now, I do have a way to combat that and for a way to basically bring it up every single time you're in a dip and how to identify what dips you're in. So, let's get into
412:53
Speaker A
that now. But just remember, dips happen all the time. If you want sustainable income, you want sustainable views, go get a job. Like that's the only solution I have for you in business guys. And when you're doing business, when you're
413:05
Speaker A
an entrepreneur, you have to remember that you are working for yourself, which means income is going to be a little bit unstable from time to time. You cannot go into business expecting stable income. Some months will be lower, some
413:16
Speaker A
months will be higher. Sometimes it's literally dependent on your platform or the RPM. Like for example, in Q4 RPMs are way higher than Q1. We're in the lowest RPM season right now and we're still getting $50,000 per channel on
413:28
Speaker A
some of these channels we're running. So, I'm going to show a couple of those now. Now, here is one of my best student channels right now. I've been working with him for around three months and only around three weeks ago, he really
413:38
Speaker A
started picking up because sometimes it takes a little bit longer to break out of your dip. Now, if we actually go into the past 90 days, you can kind of see where we were before, right? We were getting around 300 to 500,000 views a
413:49
Speaker A
day. Sometimes we would scratch a million, but our revenue was getting around anywhere from $500 to $800 a day.
413:56
Speaker A
Now, what did we do to break out of this and start scaling so hard? This was a slightly long form and short form channel together. It was more uh it's kind of like a mis days, some long form,
414:08
Speaker A
some short form. Then we started pushing consistently every single day, right? What's important about getting sustainable views and scaling out, right, is understanding the higher highs and lower lows of YouTube. Right? Now, I'm sure if you guys are in trading,
414:23
Speaker A
you've heard this before, like higher highs, lower lows. So, I'm kind of using the same terms, but it actually makes sense, right? So, when you actually look at your monthly audience, I'll show you here. The monthly audience for this
414:32
Speaker A
channel has just been increasing so much, right? We have around a 15 million monthly audience. Before it was around 1.2 million monthly audience. What is a monthly audience? Right? So, a monthly audience on YouTube basically determines how many people are guaranteed to come
414:46
Speaker A
back to your channel, how many uh new and recurring views you're actually going to get, and then also it determines how much stable income you're going to get every single month. So here's a couple different examples, right? Let's say you have this chart
414:57
Speaker A
here of your views and the amount of money that you are making every single month, right? As your monthly audience goes up, you will notice the baseline for the amount of views you get will actually have a new low, right? So at
415:13
Speaker A
each time this incrementally goes up, your baseline increases. So if this increases here, this is your monthly audience and these are the amount of views you're getting, right? The baseline will be here. So, for example, if your monthly audience is this high
415:25
Speaker A
and let's say you have a video that flops and let's say you have a couple videos that flop, even if it drops, it will not drop below or hover around this general baseline before it goes back up.
415:34
Speaker A
This is how the algorithm responds to monthly audiences. Now, here is another example of another student that we were working with. You can see here that when we started increasing our views, our monthly audience kind of well, it was
415:46
Speaker A
hovering around the same. If you go to the past 365 days, you can see how quickly it shot up when they started working with us. But you can see here as it started dipping, you'll see here that the revenue ended up staying relatively
415:58
Speaker A
the same because the baseline once it hit this monthly audience was set. Right? So like the baseline in this scenario was around $150ish dollars per day. Right? So with this 9 million audience, which is a completely different niche than the channel I
416:12
Speaker A
showed you previously, even though the monthly audience is higher, it still has a baseline of around $150. This is for a multitude of factors like RPM, niche.
416:21
Speaker A
You can see here the 48 hour on this channel is only 4.5 million compared to this channel is 47 million. But regardless, monthly audience plays a huge role and most people on YouTube don't even know this metric, right? So
416:34
Speaker A
audience watch behavior, what is audience watch behavior? Audience watch behavior is the percentage of new viewers, casual viewers, and regular viewers, right? The only two you need to be focusing on is casual viewers and then c or new viewers and casual and
416:48
Speaker A
regular viewers added up together. Right? So, here's kind of how I like balancing it. All right. So, let me take a screenshot of this real quick and I'll show you something. So, when you're actually looking at this metric right
416:58
Speaker A
here, you usually want to be aiming for around a 5050 split between your envy, your new viewers, and your CV and RV, your casual viewers. So, your envy needs to be around 50%.
417:12
Speaker A
And your CV plus RV plus RV casual viewer plus regular viewer needs to be 50% equated as well. Right? Why do we need this? This is because once we have more casual viewers than new viewers, you will see a decrease in monthly
417:30
Speaker A
audience because monthly audience cannot go straight. It can only go up or down. And I've noticed across the thousands of channels that I've analyzed and thousands of channels that I've worked with that when you are making these videos,
417:44
Speaker A
excuse me, when you're making these videos, you'll notice that um 50% new viewers is usually the baseline of when you see your monthly audience start decreasing. And you can see it here.
417:55
Speaker A
When we got around our monthly audience of 50%, this is when it started decreasing here. And I can even show it to you a little bit further. If you look over the past 90 or 100 sorry if you
418:05
Speaker A
look over the past year as soon as we reached the threshold look at the percentages here all right we see the casual viewers 50% as soon as this happened this started decreasing this is December 3rd 2025 the new viewers start
418:20
Speaker A
going down right now let's look at our monthly audience again right let's look at the monthly audience and let's look at the exact day that we started decreasing look at this it's right around December 3rd And then boom, our
418:30
Speaker A
monthly audience started decreasing. Now let's look at our revenue. What happens right around December, right? We had have started having a decrease and now our baseline decreased. Right? If the monthly audience kept going up, then we would have kept making more money. But
418:44
Speaker A
because the monthly audience went down, we started losing money and losing that sustainable income. This explains why we have dips because our monthly audience decreases. Okay, so great. Now you understand why dips happen because monthly audience decreases. Now how can
419:01
Speaker A
we fix this? How can we actually stop monthly audiences from going down and how can we increase our monthly audience to actually increase the amount of sustainable money we make every single month? Well, here is where we get into
419:12
Speaker A
it right now. Let me teach you something about business. All right, in business, every single business dies over a long enough time horizon. Google, Apple, the biggest companies in the world, they will all die eventually. If you look
419:27
Speaker A
back 500 years ago when blacksmiths were still a thing, right? And people were, you know, saying, "Oh, no, black, we're always going to need blacksmiths. We're always going to need metal." And then we had industrial the industrial revolution
419:37
Speaker A
came. Then all of a sudden, we didn't even need workers anymore because we can basically have machines to do it. Now we have AI just replacing stuff. And as you see, as time goes on, businesses keep getting crushed and replaced, right?
419:49
Speaker A
First it was the newspaper, then it was the internet. Now we're going to have probably have metagasses or some type of chip in the future that downloads data in our brain where we don't even have to think. Right? All this stuff makes you
419:58
Speaker A
realize that all businesses die eventually. This applies to your YouTube channel as well. Right? If you have a YouTube channel, it will die eventually unless you keep it alive by trying new things. This is where I invented the 32
420:11
Speaker A
method. Now, what the 32 method is is you should be uploading five shorts a day. All right? Now, depending on your niche, this is going to be pretty impossible unless you have a big enough team. For example, if you're in
420:22
Speaker A
animation, I understand five shorts a day is pretty difficult. If you're in role play or you're in some type of like Roblox uh stuff something like that, I understand five shorts a day is pretty impossible. Now, regardless, you should
420:34
Speaker A
still be aiming for this baseline because this is what you should be aiming for if you want to scale up channels. For example, like this channel here, go to past 28 days. You can see we upload five videos a day every single
420:42
Speaker A
day on this channel and we're pulling around 4K a day USD every single month, right? So, what you need to do is you need to be aiming for five videos a day where three of them is something new and
420:53
Speaker A
two of them is something that you know works. Now, I've gone over my method multiple times in other videos for replicate and then reiterate. Replicate someone else's content and then reiterate it later. Right? So, when you're starting out, yes, you should be
421:05
Speaker A
replicating all five of these videos. You shouldn't be using this method. But if you already are getting views, you're getting some traction, you should be doing two videos that you know works and three videos of new concepts always.
421:15
Speaker A
Always be testing more than you know what works. Right now in social media, it is a testing game. And once you have something that sticks, then you switch it, right? And then you go all in on that thing, right? So let's say you you
421:27
Speaker A
test new video, new video, new video, and you have one video that just boom skyrockets up, right? Let's say this is a NV new video. Um, if you have a new video that skyrockets and it's, let's say, a random niche, let's say it's
421:40
Speaker A
ranking the best animal moments with commentary in it, right? Then keep doing that over and over again. And a key indicator of to know when it's not working anymore is when you see your monthly audience start dipping, right?
421:52
Speaker A
When your monthly audience starts dipping, this is a key indicator. Okay, this doesn't work for me anymore. My channel is tired of it. My casual viewers tired of it. I need to go look for new viewers now. or else over a long
422:04
Speaker A
enough time horizon, you will see something like this happen where at one day you're getting $900 a day. Now you're getting $100, $200 a day, which is still good, but it's not what you want to be aiming for because if you're
422:15
Speaker A
doing this, I'm assuming you want to make the most amount of money possible, right? So, if you see your monthly audience start dipping, this is a key indicator right here. Hey, let's change our stuff up. Let's try something a
422:24
Speaker A
little bit different. And when you try something different, you go new video, new video, new video, 3-2 method, and then bam, you just have a video that pops up. your monthly audience starts going back up again. The monthly
422:34
Speaker A
audience again is something that no one even looks at. No one looks at this stat. I'm not trying to make up information or say, "Hey guys, look at this. You can buy my course." I don't even have a course that I sell, guys.
422:44
Speaker A
I'm just saying this cuz I'm It's a little bit frustrating for me because I have this conversation with students all the time and I feel like this will help a lot of people out. So, if this is helpful for you, leave a comment, let me
422:55
Speaker A
know. I hope this is helpful. actually take this data that I've given you and this years of experience that I've talked about in this single video and implement it, right? Because everything that I've said here is something that
423:06
Speaker A
I've done for so long. I keep seeing it across student channels that I work with. I keep seeing it across client channels and my own personal channels that I work with. And I know if you increase that monthly audience by
423:16
Speaker A
testing new videos and pushing it out, it'll help. Now, another key question that some you guys may be asking if you're a little bit more advanced in YouTube, you guys probably know this button on YouTube called push to new
423:26
Speaker A
viewers or push to subscribers, right? So, if you actually go to upload a video on YouTube, you're going to have the option that says push to subscribers.
423:33
Speaker A
Should you uncclick this if your monthly audience is too high. I've done a lot of testing on this. It does not work. Do not uncclick the publish to subscribers if you want to get pushed through the algorithm. And I'll show you what the
423:45
Speaker A
setting looks like. Now, let's say you were uploading a video on YouTube, right? Let's say you upload it over here. If you scroll down, we actually may need to go through all of this first here. Um, after you upload this video,
423:56
Speaker A
you're going to see an option. You have to make sure the video is private first, but after you upload this video here, uh, you will notice if you go to your content, go to the video, it doesn't matter if it's long form, or short form,
424:06
Speaker A
and you go to details, you scroll all the way down, you're going to see this option over here that says, um, publish to subscription. Here it is. here, right under right underneath license and distribution, it'll say publish a
424:17
Speaker A
subscription feed, notify subscribers. Some people think that if you uncclick this button right here, move my camera.
424:23
Speaker A
If you uncclick this button right here, it'll actually push to a new monthly audience. It's not true. Doesn't even work. I've tried so much testing with it, okay? Saving you uh months of testing. Do not do this. Just keep it
424:34
Speaker A
published to subscription feed always. It's better to just look for new viewers because YouTube's algorithm is advanced enough to find that person or find that viewer for you or monthly audience. So yeah, I just recommend if you guys are
424:44
Speaker A
making any type of content, don't uncclick this feature, right? Because this feature is pretty important.
424:50
Speaker A
Anyways, I hope this video was helpful, man. I hope this video is helpful. I dropped a lot of info here. And um yeah, guys, one more thing. If you guys did find this helpful and you want to work
424:59
Speaker A
with me one-on-one, you want me to help scale your channel, like we have a lot of students hitting $35,000 a month now.
425:04
Speaker A
I'm very proud of it. If you want to check the student interviews, I leave it in the description down below. But if you guys want to work with me, go ahead and apply down below and me and my team
425:10
Speaker A
will reach out. And also, I know I said one more thing, but I actually have two more things. I want to show you something else as well. I'm sure you guys have heard about trust score and your monthly audience as part of your
425:19
Speaker A
trust score as well. If you guys want to analyze your trust score yourself, you can go ahead and in the description below, try Satura. It's basically our trust score calculator. We made this oursel with all the data I've collected.
425:29
Speaker A
We've take over 30 different metrics from, you know, hundreds of YouTube channels and weighted them so you can understand exactly what's doing good or bad about your channel. Once you get to you, you can basically just add your
425:39
Speaker A
channel over and then calculate your trust score this way and it'll tell you exactly what you need to fix. For example, we're analyzing one of our channels right now. And as you analyze it, you will see it'll say something
425:48
Speaker A
like maybe 70 or 60 depending on whatever it is. If your trust score is really bad, it'll probably be in like the 30s or even 20s just depending, right? So, for example, looks like we have a 72 trust score and looks like we
426:00
Speaker A
need to spark more conversation on our videos and it'll give us a big checklist of everything you need to improve. This is basically my mind inside of a app that can basically let you check your stuff. If you want to check your trust
426:10
Speaker A
score for yourself, check it down below. I have a general idea of how to scale channels and break them out of any view jail. You can tell by the 48 hour marks on some of these channels here where
426:19
Speaker A
we're getting some pretty pretty high numbers, right? And we've even hit higher numbers. I'm talking 20 million plus. For example, just like this channel that is literally at 20 million49 mark. See, I can reload this right here and show you for yourself.
426:31
Speaker A
This is a couple of the students I'm showing you right now and a couple of the channels we're working with right now that we have basically scaled out of this, right? So, it's very easy to scale out of any type of view jail and break
426:41
Speaker A
pretty pretty high limits. For example, if we go to past 90 days, this channel was literally stuck in 1 million view jail around a month ago or two months ago. And around um a month and a half ago or I guess two months and a half
426:53
Speaker A
ago, this channel was stuck in around 30,000 view jail, right? So, we scaled it out pretty quickly and you can see the exponential growth and you can also see the exponential amount of revenue growth we had on this channel as well.
427:03
Speaker A
So, yeah, let's get straight into it. Also, before I actually continue guys, here are also all the channels that we are working with and or running right now. You can see we have a lot of channels that we were working with and
427:13
Speaker A
running. Um, anyways, let's get straight into it. Right. So, first things first, when you are actually trying to break out of the view you're in, first you have to identify what VueJO you're in.
427:23
Speaker A
Right? So there are certain criterias you need to look at to see if you are in a certain view jail. It is over a certain time period of the videos you're uploading. Right? If you get one video that's stuck in 30k views, that does not
427:35
Speaker A
mean your channel is in 30K view jail. All right? It means that one video is.
427:38
Speaker A
Now, if you have a multitude of videos that are stuck in 30K view jail, then that is something different, right? So first of all, you need to understand that you need to look at the 8 to 12 day
427:48
Speaker A
period between your actual upload cycle. All right? If your 8 to 12 day upload cycle has all uh reached the same results of a certain view jail, right?
427:59
Speaker A
Then yes, you are in a view jail and you can identify it. Right? Now, normally I'm going to show the levels of views there are. Right? So there is zero view jail, 30k view jail, 50k view jail, 100k
428:11
Speaker A
view jail, and then it goes straight to 750k view jail. Then it goes to 1 million view jail. And then we'll we'll go over 10 million view jail afterward.
428:22
Speaker A
All right, cuz I do know how to break out of all these. Let's go with zero view jail first, right? This is pretty basic. Just increase your trust score.
428:28
Speaker A
All right, if your trust score is not dialed, I'm not going to go over this too much. It's pretty simple. I have a 1-hour course on my channel going over how to basically increase your trust score. Make sure your trust score is
428:36
Speaker A
good. I'm sure you're going to put TS for trust score. Pretty simple. I'm not going to go over too much. 30K view jail. All right, this is the place that most you guys are stuck in, right? Every single time I see someone making a
428:46
Speaker A
comment like, "Hey, can you please make a video on how to get a 30K video?" All right, I got you, bro. I'll explain it real quick. Right, so this is a more highlevel understanding of the trust score. All right, so you need to
428:57
Speaker A
actually look at key metrics. This usually means that you're hitting some good metrics, but not all of them. The key metrics you need to look for is your swipe ratio, which should be at least 81.1%.
429:07
Speaker A
Right? your average view duration divided by your length of video which gives you your retention and this should be above 100%. You need to make sure your audience size, right? So, your monthly audience, if you go back to one
429:20
Speaker A
of our channels here, go to audience, right? We need to make sure this monthly audience is increasing, right? So, if you actually go to past 28 days, I'm not sure why it's not loading here. I think that's the visual bug, but you could see
429:30
Speaker A
here that our monthly audience is growing pretty rapidly right now, right? You need to make sure you look at your monthly audience if you want this thing to consistently grow. So, look at the monthly audience, right? I'm going to
429:40
Speaker A
give another example cuz for some reason it's not showing up here. I think YouTube may be bugging right now because every single monthly audience right now is currently blurred out. I guess YouTube's I guess YouTube YouTube's thing is probably bugging right now.
429:53
Speaker A
Whatever. Um but your monthly audience needs to be basically be increasing. Look at your casual, regular, and um new viewers. Look at the ratios of those.
430:02
Speaker A
Your new viewer to casual and regular view ratio should be 5050%. So look at your new viewers, right? That'll be right here. And your audience watch behavior, you need to make sure that your new viewers is 50%. Right? If it's
430:14
Speaker A
higher, that's okay as well. Right? 50%. And you need to make sure your casual plus regular viewers is at 50% as well. This can be a pretty even split of 2020. All right? Or 2520.
430:28
Speaker A
That is how you break out of 30K view jail. All right. I've gone into more depth in other videos, but like if you understand that, then you are set. All right. Trust score, swipe ratio, average duration divided by length of video.
430:38
Speaker A
Make sure your length of video is around 24 to 32 seconds, right? And make sure your average view duration is higher than that, right? I have an entire document um posted in our Discord server talking about basically every
430:52
Speaker A
single ratio you need to have available um for your thing. I'll go over it real quick right now because I'm sure a lot of you guys don't want to waste your time going all the way to the Discord
431:00
Speaker A
just to see it. I posted it in the inner circle chat, but I'll post show you here again. Here's the trust document.
431:07
Speaker A
And here is the average view duration document. Right? So if you look here, right, you can see what we have one of our students actually on right now. It's funny. Um, but this is basically the ratio you need to have for every single
431:19
Speaker A
average view duration divided by length of video. So for example, if you have a 24 second um average view duration, you need to have a 26 second or 24 second length of video, you need to have a 26
431:29
Speaker A
second um average view duration. All right, so this document pretty much goes over everything. I'm not going to go over in this video because it's honestly I think it's worth another video. But today we're talking about view jail. All
431:39
Speaker A
right, 50k view jail. All right, let's say you broke out of 30k. Now you're hovering around that 50k. Maybe you're even hitting 60k, but you're kind of stuck here. Usually when you're stuck in this little ratio, it's usually a
431:49
Speaker A
comment ratio problem. All right, comment ratio is something that you need to improve upon over time. Your comment ratio should be one in every single 1,500 people who see your video should comment. All right. So, you have a 1 to
432:01
Speaker A
1,500 view ratio for your comment to view ratio. Um, if you increase it, then you should be able to actually get more views. Now, how do you actually increase your comment ratio? It's not CTAs. I'll tell you right now, it's actually subtle
432:12
Speaker A
CTAs or using emotion driven content, right? So, actually, I want to show this um through another different lens. So, I'm actually going to move my camera here. I'm going to show you guys something pretty cool. Give me one
432:22
Speaker A
second. Now, if you look behind me, I have a giant whiteboard. So, I want to take this part of the video to kind of explain uh how you can basically break out of this 50k view jail with emotions
432:32
Speaker A
because I always do this on my computer, right? And it's a little bit hard for you guys to kind of visualize what I'm doing because my my handwriting is so scribble crap, right? Editor may need to invert the video by the way because uh
432:41
Speaker A
we're we're doing this now. So, when you're trying to break out of this 50k plus view jail that a lot of you guys are in, right? this 50k view jail.
432:51
Speaker A
Usually the main reason why you're stuck here is because you're not utilizing emotions to your advantage. Right? So I want you to look at this giant graph here. Right? Giant graph.
433:04
Speaker A
Right? So um when you are trying to utilize your emotions to scale out of your 50k view jail, you need to take the viewers on an emotional journey. And a lot of my students, they encounter this problem where they're basically let's
433:17
Speaker A
say they're doing ranking, right? They'll do like one emotion here, right? And then they'll basically flatline because they're just one emotion throughout the entire video. And that's not what you should be doing, right? And the reason you shouldn't be doing this,
433:30
Speaker A
right? The reason why you should be um utilizing multiple emotions is because what are emotions, guys, right? Emotions are just reactions. Okay? So, just like in science, when a material reacts to something else, it's a reaction. It's a
433:46
Speaker A
change in something, right? So, if you want someone to comment you, they have to react. And a reaction is a change, which means you need to have a change in your emotions as well, right? So, let me pull this back up here. If you are
433:58
Speaker A
trying to get a change in emotions, you need to make the video like happy, angry, sad, maybe it goes to really shock, then it's some type of tension here. And then you do this, right? It's a constant change in emotion, right? So,
434:10
Speaker A
if this is a time to emotion curve, right? Your time to emotion curve should be different every single time. It should look something like this. So, I'm going to give you guys an example of that now. Right?
434:24
Speaker A
Let's say you were making a ranking video, right? Let's say you're doing a ranking video. Let me pull my chair over here. Let's say you're doing a ranking video, right? If you're doing any type of ranking video, what you should do is
434:36
Speaker A
you should select your clips like happy and then angry and then sad and some type of shot clip. If it's just funny, funny funny. Guess what's going to happen? The viewers are going to scroll away. You're not going to get as much
434:47
Speaker A
comments. This keeps people engaged. Do this. Okay, so after that 50k view jail, the next view jail is 100K, right? And 100K is surprisingly very easy to break out of. This is actually usually a consistency problem, right? So if you
435:01
Speaker A
want to break out of this view jail, upload more videos. The max videos that you can upload is five videos per day, right? So upload five videos per day.
435:09
Speaker A
Now, key caveat, cuz this is actually a recent change that YouTube implemented. Make sure it's 1 to 3 hours apart. I would say 2.5 to three is probably a good sweet spot. Make sure it's 2 to 3 hours apart. Okay? Um, you can schedule
435:21
Speaker A
out videos. Do not do 45 minutes. A lot of YouTubers, including myself, around two weeks ago was telling everyone, all their students, everyone on YouTube, hey, make sure you're uploading 45minute videos, right? And the reason why is because that was the method. That's what
435:35
Speaker A
you're supposed to do. That has changed now. All right? YouTube has basically let a new update out where they want quality over quantity and they have their TB testing period go over a longer time period, right? So, for example,
435:46
Speaker A
right, like if we go to um where is it? It's this channel here, right? We go to our shorts and go most popular. You can see we have an 160 million view video, right? And here I'll move my camera over
435:56
Speaker A
here so it's a little easier for you guys to see. But if we actually go to the 24-hour mark, zoom in, right? These are actually little staircases. I'll take a screenshot and make it really big for you guys, too, so it's so it's
436:07
Speaker A
easier to see, right? Check this out. If we actually zoom in on this, make this really, really big. What do you guys see here? You guys will see little staircases going up. And as you see when staircases break through TB
436:25
Speaker A
testing period, it gets more and more views. Okay. Now, this same thing applies to your TB testing period. If you don't know what a TB testing period is, by the way, my camera back over here. Your TB testing period is your
436:38
Speaker A
test and rebalance curve. It's basically like a staircase like this. If you've seen your views do this before, every single section like this section here, this section, this section, and this section, this is it breaking its higher high and going to a higher low every
436:51
Speaker A
single time. And this is breaking the TV testing period. Okay? So, if you want to break your TV testing period, upload two to three hours apart. Do not upload 45 minutes. And do five uploads per day.
437:02
Speaker A
This is and by the way, if you're getting 100K views per video, you should be making money. So, you should be able to invest in editors. I have an entire another video on scaling with editors for 70k view jail. It's the same thing.
437:11
Speaker A
All right? But now you have to focus on your quality and comment um reactions, right? So, it's basically a combination of this these two things comment ratio using the emotions we talked about before and then doing more uploads. All
437:28
Speaker A
right. 1 million view jail. This is where it gets good. Okay, this is where building your monthly audience becomes very very important. All right, if you want to build your monthly audience to absurd numbers, all right, you want to
437:40
Speaker A
build your monthly audience to absurd numbers, you need to make sure you're using every single post opportunity you have with YouTube other than live live streams. Live streams don't really matter. All right, but this is where your monthly audience really matters,
437:52
Speaker A
right? So again, I don't know why YouTube's bugging out right now. If I go to monthly audience, my monthly audience right now is like 32 million on this channel, but I don't know why it's not loading. This is really weird. But this
438:03
Speaker A
would say probably around maybe maybe 70 million. I don't know. We'll we'll see. We've gotten like 248 million views.
438:11
Speaker A
Yeah, I don't know what the monthly audience is, but it's pretty high for this channel. Okay, so if you want to increase and get lots of views, if you actually go to the analytics of this channel and go by per short, you can see
438:20
Speaker A
we're breaking past 1 million views every single time. The reason why is because we have a high monthly audience, right? If you have a high monthly audience, then you are basically going to pretty much almost be guaranteed to
438:34
Speaker A
get views, right? And this is a pretty surefire way to build up your monthly audience and actually gain traction for guaranteed reoccurring revenue, right?
438:43
Speaker A
Use community posts. I tell every single student this. Now, if you don't know what a community post is, go to your YouTube and click on create posts. After you hit create, it's going to be right here, right? And you can like do
438:54
Speaker A
whatever you want here. You can type whatever you want. Let me move my camera again. Start putting it here for you guys. But um I usually recommend using image polls. They're the most engaging.
439:02
Speaker A
And here's a fire strategy, some free sauce for you. Go to chat GBT and ask, "Hey, create me 30 very generic posts like right-hand versus left hand, red versus blue, I don't know, pickles on pineapp or p pizza pineapples on pizza
439:18
Speaker A
or no pineapples on pizza." Do really basic polls like that. It doesn't matter what your niche is. If you ask for really basic information, people interact with it and you will consistently get more monthly audience and increase your new to casual viewers.
439:30
Speaker A
And here is the last one we're talking about here. Women post versus first community post com post. Last one, 10 million view jail. If you're stuck in this, the best way to break out of this for all you advanced people out here, I
439:43
Speaker A
know you know what this is. Make sure you're using related related videos and increasing your VPP. All right, related videos is pretty simple. Everyone knows what a related video is. Make sure you're doing it. It does not drop
439:54
Speaker A
retention as long as the videos are actually somewhat correlated, right? Use related posts. This is going to help you increase your other metric, which is your VPP.
440:04
Speaker A
If you don't know what that is, it's a metric I made up. It's called views per viewer, right? VPP, views per viewer.
440:11
Speaker A
What this does is it basically quantifies how many views each viewer who's watching your video gets. If you can increase this, you will get more views on your videos. For example, this monthly audience that we want to increase, this is basically this on full
440:24
Speaker A
throttle, right? This is maximizing every single stream of viewership and maximizing the amount of reach. I once had a single opportunity to ask a question for Mr. Beast. This happened like four years ago. It was on a group
440:36
Speaker A
call of like a hundred people. It was like on I have a screenshot of it was but like I was able to ask him like, "Hey, what niche would you pick?" And he said, "Oh, I would pick the world. I
440:44
Speaker A
would just target everyone. I don't I don't like niches. I would just target everyone. And that made me think like, okay, if I'm gonna target everyone, you need to target everyone. This means think outside the box. How can you make
440:54
Speaker A
a video without think without including language, without including sound? How can you make a video so amazing to watch that it could just be watched throughout any language? Anyone can understand it at any age, any demographic, any demographic and any gender, right?
441:08
Speaker A
Increase your VP VPB, right? Your VPP is very, very important. use related videos and also uploading very very broad topics that is rewatchable.
441:17
Speaker A
Okay, rewatchable. This channel here was one of my students and they were stuck in around 30k view jail around one month ago. If you go to shorts and just scroll all the way down, you can see they were
441:27
Speaker A
getting around 30,000 views per video. You can see here. And if you go to analytics, you can see just in the past couple days, we've broken out of the 30K view completely, hitting 8 million views just yesterday and 14 million views in
441:40
Speaker A
the 48 hour mark. Now, how have we done this? Well, I'm going to give another example here of one of the other channels we're running right now. And this channel is currently at 325 million views. And you can see we're
441:49
Speaker A
consistently getting around the 48 hour mark of the previous channel at around anywhere from 16 to 20 million viewsish per day. not per month or not per year, per day, we're getting around 10 to 20 million views. Now, how exactly are we
442:05
Speaker A
doing this? Well, it's all about trust scores. Understanding how to break out of YouTube jail and how I break my students out of YouTube jail consistently to be able to get them good results and eventually make them a lot
442:15
Speaker A
of money. So, the first thing we always like to do when we're trying to figure out a problem we're having in our business or our contents or anything is figuring out defining the terms we are actually dealing with. So, what we're
442:25
Speaker A
dealing with right now is view jail, right? So what exactly is view jail and how do we define this? Right? So viewj is YouTube just limiting the amount of views that we get per video. So YouTube doesn't like us. So they're limiting us.
442:39
Speaker A
And why does YouTube actually limit us in the first place? Well, it's because YouTube does not trust us. Because if YouTube trusted us and they actually, you know, trusted that we'd get them good results, what do you think they're
442:49
Speaker A
going to do? Of course, they're going to push us out because YouTube cares about one thing and it's actually creating good content and pushing out to a good audience. Now, there's a lot of other things that YouTube cares about that we
442:58
Speaker A
can get about later in this video. But first, we need to define what view jail is, which is basically a lack of trust.
443:05
Speaker A
If you have a lack of trust with YouTube, YouTube will not push out your videos to their platform because they don't trust you. Now, how do we actually gain the trust of YouTube to be able to get pushed out to the algorithm? Because
443:18
Speaker A
if we have trust with YouTube, YouTube's going to be happy to push out our videos. And then if we push out our videos, what are we going to get? More views. And as we know, attention is currency in this economy. So more views
443:29
Speaker A
equals what? More moola. We want more money, right? So what do we exactly do to increase the trust, which is the main factor in why you're stuck in VueJL?
443:39
Speaker A
Well, as we did with one of my students over here, breaking out of it, we basically just increase this trust score. Now, there was a lot of different factors that he was having before we actually pushed out his video to the
443:51
Speaker A
correct audience to gain his trust score, but I'm going to kind of go over that now. So what exactly is a trust score and how do we increase the trust score to be able to get the most amount
444:00
Speaker A
of views possible to you know make the most money. So when we are trying to increase our trust score we got to think about the key metrics YouTube actually gives us. Now YouTube gives us over 30 different metrics. If you actually look
444:09
Speaker A
in YouTube's analytics you'll see you know all types of random analytics. I'm going to go over the main ones. I can go in more detail about these later but you know these are the most important. So pay attention to this part of the video.
444:19
Speaker A
So, the most important metrics that YouTube actually gives us is the swipe ratio, which is how many people actually decide to stay in your video when they actually watch it. The retention of your video, which is not actually given, but
444:31
Speaker A
we can calculate it doing some math. So, we'll actually go back to this in a second. The average view duration of your video. The length of your video, which is honestly just completely up to you, how long you make the um the length
444:41
Speaker A
of your video. Remember, I'm also going to use abbreviations like AVD for average view duration, LOV for length of video, and then also YouTube gives us the demographic. YouTube also gives us how frequently we're uploading. And remember, a lot of these, even though it
444:55
Speaker A
doesn't seem like it's in our not in our control, it actually is. Almost all of these metrics that I'm put, you know, showing you guys right now, it is in your control to control the algorithm.
445:06
Speaker A
It's just about understanding how you do it. Now, let's go to our R factor. Now, what is our R factor? Our R factor is retention. And I like to do a lot of basic math for this. So let's say we
445:16
Speaker A
take the AVD, which is the average view duration of our video. We divide it by our LOV, which is the length of our video. This is going to give us our retention of our video. And our retention always wants to be above a 100
445:30
Speaker A
plus%. Now, why do we want to do this? The reason we want to do this is because the higher plus percent retention, the more times people are going to rewatch the video and the more times YouTube's going to push it out because of
445:40
Speaker A
YouTube's point system. Now, if you don't know what YouTube's point system is, YouTube all lots points to every interaction a viewer has with your video. If they watch a video, they comment, share, remix, uh end up subscribing, re-watching, watching all
445:54
Speaker A
the way through. Heck, if they end up using a sound on that video, clicking on the sound, you get points for that. if they click on your channel, watch another one of your video, you get points for that. Um, so there's lots of
446:05
Speaker A
different metrics that YouTube actually gives when they're actually when a viewer is interacting with your video.
446:10
Speaker A
The main thing we want to do here is use those points to our advantage to get us the best trust score. For example, our R factor, right? We can control the length of our video because it's in our power
446:21
Speaker A
to say, "Okay, I'm going to make a 32- second video, right? Why should we make a 32cond video?" Well, we'll explain that later as well, right? But let's say we made a 32 second video. If we made a
446:30
Speaker A
32C video, then we want our AVD to be at least 33 seconds, right? Because if our video is 33 seconds, that means our AVD is 32 and our LOV is 33. Now, what did we say for our equation? Our AVD is 33 /
446:45
Speaker A
32, which is going to give us around 1.03, which is also equal to 103%. Which you can see here is above the retention that we need to be. Now remember all of this is for just one factor in our trust
447:01
Speaker A
score and these are the most important metrics. There is lots of other metrics of the trust score that we can go over but I'm going to go over the most basic and most important ones first. Right. So now that we understand the retention
447:12
Speaker A
should be above 100% which is average view duration divided by length of video which means our average view duration should be above the length of our video.
447:18
Speaker A
Then how do we actually increase our swipe ratio? Now swipe ratio is really important because this is basically deciding on how many people are actually going to watch. Right? If your swipe ratio is 0%, your views is probably 0%
447:29
Speaker A
as well because no one stays a watch, right? So, the higher your swipe ratio is, the more likely you're going to more to get views because YouTube trusts that you're going to get more people to stay on their platform because YouTube cares
447:40
Speaker A
about three things. Now, remember earlier we talked about we're going to talk about what YouTube actually wants.
447:44
Speaker A
We talked about YouTube wants money, but YouTube actually wants two other things, right? I call these the three pillars of what YouTube wants. So, let's go over that. They of course want, like we said earlier, to make money. They also want
447:53
Speaker A
people to stay on their platform. Stay on platform as long as possible. And then lastly, they want people to be happy and satisfied, right? They want them to feel emotion. Now, does this emotion actually have to be a good
448:09
Speaker A
emotion? No. Because in YouTube's eyes, satisfaction is just feeling an emotion and them reacting to it. Because when someone feels an emotion, then they're going to consistently say to scroll to see if they're going to feel that emotion again when they're scrolling on
448:24
Speaker A
the shorts feed. If they see a video that makes them angry, what's going to happen? They're going to feel angry.
448:28
Speaker A
They may interact with it. Then they're going to scroll and they're going to see a happy video, right? So that's why short form content has kind of degraded the human mind because we're feeling so many emotions at once when we're
448:36
Speaker A
scrolling. We see, you know, a a video of a dog being happy, the next video dog getting hit, then a video of a dog using AI like barfing onto like a door. I'm sure you guys seen the Sori clips, but
448:47
Speaker A
the fact is when you make people feel different emotions, they scroll and they keep watching and they stay on the platform, which is why these two are kind of together, right? But we want to make sure they're feeling an emotion
448:58
Speaker A
because emotions is actually how you really take advantage of the algorithm. And that's what I do for a lot of my students here. We take advantage of the algorithm. We take advantage of the algorithm by using emotions. And when we
449:09
Speaker A
use emotions, we get insane results like this. We made $14,000 this month. just alone in revenue for this one channel, one channel. I own 36 channels, by the way. If you click here, you can see all these channels. I'm running
449:23
Speaker A
close to 36 different channels, right? So, I use emotion all the time when I'm making these videos because if we use emotion to our advantage, we can make a lot of money. So, how do we actually improve our swipe ratio? Now, the swipe
449:38
Speaker A
ratio, if you actually go to your analytics, is going to be right here. You can see this video has an 81.9% swipe ratio and has 6.8 million views.
449:47
Speaker A
And remember, this is also within the first couple days of uploading. So, we're doing pretty good for this video.
449:52
Speaker A
If you see here, the swipe ratio is 81.9%. Right? And typically, when we're trying to make a very good video, we want to have an 81.1% plus swipe ratio. The reason why is because when YouTube sees this, I've
450:05
Speaker A
never seen a video under 100 million views get a below 81.1% swipe ratio in my content creation career, which is almost 9 years of experience at this point. So, you know, over the tens of thousands of videos uploaded and hundreds of videos that
450:20
Speaker A
have gotten hundreds of millions of views and the 28 billion views that I've gotten, I've never seen a video over 100 million views get below an 81.1% swipe ratio. So, this is a very key number.
450:29
Speaker A
So, you want to be able to hit this number for YouTube to be happy. So, I'm going to circle this. Remember, our swipe ratio should be 81.1%. Right? Our retention should be around 100 plus%.
450:39
Speaker A
Now, what about our average view duration? Our average view duration should just be above or greater than the length of video, right? If our video average view duration is above the length of our video, that means we're doing well. For our length of video, we
450:52
Speaker A
want to have 32 second plus. Now, I said I would go over this a little later, so I'm going to go over it now. When you have a 32 second plus video, there was a study done by advertisers that showed
451:01
Speaker A
that when you have a video over 32 seconds, advertisers are more likely to make more money off their content or their ads on your content. And at the end of the day, if advertisers are making more money, what does that mean
451:13
Speaker A
for YouTube? It means YouTube is making more money as well, right? So remember, if we go back to our three pillars over here, you want to um have YouTube make money, stay on platform as long as possible, and for emotions to be
451:24
Speaker A
satisfied. Now, if we want YouTube to make more money, let's bring this all the way over here, right? If we want YouTube to make more money, then we want to make sure that our average view duration or our length of video is above
451:36
Speaker A
32 seconds because advertisers are willing to spend more. And if advertisers spend more on their money for YouTube, then YouTube's going to make more money. And then we end up fulfilling one of these pillars. Now, how does YouTube actually make money?
451:50
Speaker A
Probably should talk about that, right? YouTube makes money through four different metrics, right? First one is advertisers. People playing on Google ads to make money. The second one is uh sponsorships like for example um you know YouTube getting sponsored by movies
452:04
Speaker A
or companies or music any type of sponsors that YouTube does, they actually end up getting paid because at the end of the day YouTube is a marketing platform right sponsors. Um and then there's also subscriptions like YouTube premium subscriptions. And then
452:18
Speaker A
the last one, uh, music. So, you know, YouTube gets paid through music royalties. This has been a little buggy with that right now, but music royalties is still a way to get paid. You just got to know people to know people to
452:28
Speaker A
actually get into the space for the music deals. But music deals is still a thing, and YouTube makes some money from this as well. All right, these are the four pillars of YouTube actually making money. Now, if we can fulfill any of
452:38
Speaker A
these and make YouTube a lot of money, like for example, increasing the ad spend of advertisers on your video, then you're going to end up making more money, which is why we're at $110,000 in revenue and around $40,000 in profits
452:50
Speaker A
this month through just advertisements alone. So, there's lots of ways to make money on YouTube. This is the best one.
452:56
Speaker A
It's also going to increase your RPM exponentially. Now, a big caveat. If you're getting billions of views per month, like I'm doing right now, your RPMs will go down. I see a lot of people stressing over high. I need to have the
453:06
Speaker A
best RPM, but that's not really true. If you can have a lot of views, you don't really need a high RPM because you can just get a lot of views and make a lot of money that way. I'm a view maximizer,
453:16
Speaker A
so I like focusing on getting views. And I think you should as well if you want to make money just like a lot of my students are doing right now inside the inner circle. Now, demographic of audience. Now, I see a lot of people
453:25
Speaker A
focusing on, okay, I want to get a US audience because they have the highest RPMs. And I don't really agree with that. you can focus on getting high US RPMs, but like to be honest, you US only has around 365 to 400 million people who
453:37
Speaker A
actually watch YouTube. Now, actually those people being your target audience is probably going to be maybe a quarter of that. So, I don't like focusing on YouTube for just US audiences because it's just so limiting. You know, I
453:48
Speaker A
actually had a conversation with Mr. Beast one time and he basically told me that if you're going to focus on getting the widest reach audience, focus on your niche being the world. Don't limit yourself by language. Don't limit
453:59
Speaker A
yourself by country. Don't limit yourself by niche, by nothing. Just make sure you're focusing on videos that can get the most amount of views. Which is why, for example, if you're making Roblox content, make Roblox content that is getting emotions with the viewers
454:10
Speaker A
that can make them so they're watching, anyone can understand it, and end up just watching anyway, so anyone can watch it and make money. Don't limit yourself by language. For example, like this channel right here, right? This channel right here that we're running
454:20
Speaker A
right now, we don't limit oursel by language at all. And we're pulling a lot of money right now. Every single day we're pulling anywhere from 500 to 700, even $800 a day on this channel. So, it's very possible to get it without
454:33
Speaker A
even using language. We don't speak in this channel. We don't use captions on this channel. It is pure just storytelling visually and we use audio as well, but not language, just regular audio. And this way, we make a lot of
454:44
Speaker A
money because we get a lot of people who are watching because more views equals more money. All right? And lastly, frequency. Guys, you need to be uploading every single day. If you're not uploading every single day on your
454:55
Speaker A
YouTube videos or YouTube channels, um, every single day you need to be uploading. All right, a couple of my students weren't uploading every single day and they were asking, "Hey, Devin, why are am I not getting results?" I
455:05
Speaker A
look at their thing and they're missing days. I'm like, "Bro, you're missing days. What do you think's going to happen?" Because YouTube cares about consistency. This is all a part about increasing your trust score, remember?
455:14
Speaker A
So, if we're trying to increase our trust score, we need to do all of these things correctly. And remember, this is only a couple metrics of the 30 metrics involved with the trust score. how to break out of 20 to 30,000 view jail,
455:25
Speaker A
10,000 view jail, a million view jail. Guys, it's all the same. View jail really isn't even a real thing. But we're going to explain how to break out of these little barriers that you guys are in and, you know, how to optimize
455:35
Speaker A
your videos to just get out of these little stumps you're in. If you don't know who I am, my name is Devon Cat. I post lots of different content. And I have 35 different YouTube channels, 10 different Tik Toks, and 15 different
455:47
Speaker A
Instagrams on two different phones that I'm just running. I'm pulling over a billion views a month right now. You guys can just check the channel for social proof if you don't believe me.
455:55
Speaker A
But what's more important is guys, I'm wearing a shirt that says, "Man, I love Fortnite on it." It says, "Milf, man, I love Fortnite." It's a pretty fire shirt. Um, anyways, let's get straight into the video. So, when I look at these
456:08
Speaker A
videos over here, for example, uh this one right here, the first thing I'm going to notice is the retention of this video is around 73%.
456:18
Speaker A
With an average view duration of 47 seconds. Now, remember those two numbers, right? 73% with a 47 second average view duration. These two numbers are very important. All right, now let's go back to the channel that has 30,000
456:34
Speaker A
um views on it. If we look at the retention and average view duration of the you're going to see that the retention is actually a little higher at 79%.
456:44
Speaker A
But the average view duration is 34 seconds. Now what does this tell us? This tells us that hey even though the retention of this video uh the percentage was higher the average view duration was 10 seconds lower. And
456:58
Speaker A
because YouTube wants you to upload longer content the other video is going to get pushed out to more people. Now, also this video that got 30,000 views also was in a smaller niche audience.
457:09
Speaker A
So, of course, it's going to get pushed to less people. But the second thing we're going to look at is the engagement. So, if we actually look at the swipe ratio, this video got a 79% swipe ratio, which is very good. And I
457:21
Speaker A
see a lot of you guys commenting saying, "Oh, Devin, you know, I have an 80% swipe ratio. Why is my video not getting pushed out to a lot of people?" Well, because you're not making long enough content or the niche you're uploading in
457:30
Speaker A
isn't good enough or you just aren't uploading enough because YouTube takes time to push out. For example, this video was probably uh, you know, maybe one of the 30 or 40th videos on this channel and you guys are maybe seven
457:43
Speaker A
videos in and you're like wondering, oh, I'm I'm stuck in 30k view jail. Why are my videos not getting pushed out?
457:48
Speaker A
YouTube is exponential. All right, you're going to understand there's going to be highs and lows with YouTube, but usually if you see a higher high, you're going to have a higher low and so on and so on. If you don't know what I mean,
457:57
Speaker A
it's kind of a uh it's what we use when we're day trading. It's the same term.
458:01
Speaker A
So, if you guys are describing getting views on YouTube, you can look at it like this, right? You're going to have a higher high, then a higher low, a higher high, then a higher low, and it's going to continuously go like this, right? And
458:11
Speaker A
of course, some days you'll have, you know, lower lows and lower highs, but over the course of the entire trend, that stutter was crazy. You're going to have a a graph that's kind of going to be going like this upward, right? But,
458:24
Speaker A
you know, these little stumps where we're having little negative dips right here, these are just, you know, little drawbacks. And if you guys are stuck in a graph that's looking more like this where you're just kind of stuck in the
458:36
Speaker A
30,000 view jail, it's probably because you haven't been one, uploading enough, two, your quality of your content isn't good enough, or three, your swipe ratio isn't good enough. And let's look at swipe ratio now. So, the swipe ratio for
458:48
Speaker A
this video was actually 73%. which is weird because it's a, you know, video that has 13 million views, but it has a lower swipe through ratio, but actually around 7%. The reason why this video, even though it got more views, has a
459:03
Speaker A
lower swipe through ratio is because the niche of the video is longer or sorry, wider and the video was longer. All right, these are three really important elements. So, I'm going to kind of put all these down for you so it kind of
459:16
Speaker A
makes a little more sense. All right. So, when we're looking at jaileds, right? I guess we can just put jaileds.
459:23
Speaker A
Um, we need to look at three factors. The first thing is the average view duration. How um how much seconds is people watching for? We're going to look at the retention percentage. So, um what is the percent of people who are
459:34
Speaker A
actually watching? We're going to look at the swipe through ratio um which is uh how many people decide to actually stay. And then we're going to look at the niche. And this the fourth thing I kind of forgot to mention that the
459:47
Speaker A
niche. Uh because different niches are going to get different views. For example, if you guys are making videos about pottery, of course you're going to get less views. I had someone this this buffoon commented on my on my video uh
459:59
Speaker A
like a couple days ago and he was like, "If you're getting a billion views a month, how come this video only has 3,000 views?" Bro, there's only a certain amount of people on YouTube who are actually interested in learning
460:09
Speaker A
about getting views on YouTube. Just because I'm getting a billion views a month across my brain rot, you know, shorts does not mean that this channel is going to get, you know, a million views because there's not a million
460:22
Speaker A
people on YouTube who are curious about actually these specific problems they're having right now. That's why YouTube is amazing because there's these things called um niches where you make videos in a niche and then the niche finds the
460:35
Speaker A
video. So yeah, this video got maybe, you know, 3,000 views or my last video got 3,000 views. that does not mean that, you know, it's because I'm getting a billion views a month. You know what I mean? Anyways, let's go into uh each one
460:48
Speaker A
of these subcategories now. So, when we're looking at the average view duration, we want to be aiming for at least 35% or 35 seconds. All right? If you're having around 34 to 35 seconds, that's a good warm spot to be. Um, so
461:01
Speaker A
that means we need to be uploading longer content. Upload like, you know, anywhere from 24 to um 40 second videos.
461:08
Speaker A
And even though if it's 24 seconds, you're aiming for 35 seconds. If they watch it again, it's going to increase your average view duration higher. All right, the second thing is going to be retention. When we're looking at
461:18
Speaker A
retention, we want to aim for at least 100%. Always always aim for at least 100%. The higher it is, the more uh views you're going to get because YouTube's going to push out content that gets more u people staying on their
461:30
Speaker A
platform longer. For swipe ratio, we want to be aiming for at least 85%. And I'm going to show you guys an example of a channel that's getting close to 400 million views a month and a swipe ratio is around 85%.
461:41
Speaker A
And then for niche, we want to pick something that anyone in the world in any language can watch. All right. Now, this is a pretty big important tip, guys. If you are only targeting English pe people, you're you're limiting
461:51
Speaker A
yourself to around 1.5 billion people uh per month who can see your stuff. And that's actually that sounds like a lot of people, but you know, there's channels that are getting three billion people a month. And if you're wondering
462:02
Speaker A
like, okay, well, how are they getting more people if they're only targeting English people? It's because they're not. They're target the content they're making is targeted towards anyone in any language. For example, Mr. Beast, he has voice actors on his videos who can speak
462:14
Speaker A
every single language. So that's why he's pulling hundreds of millions of views on long form videos, billions of views on short form videos because people from India, people who speak English, people who speak Spanish, people who speak Portuguese, people who
462:27
Speaker A
speak, you know, Japanese, they can all watch them because they all can understand the language. So when you're making content, you know, and you're finding different niches, make sure it is multilanguage uh videos. And that means that you
462:41
Speaker A
should be aiming for something that can be communicated through just storytelling visually, not anything that you know like you don't want to have words limiting your audience uh of people who are actually going to see it, right? So make sure it's multi- language
462:55
Speaker A
and make sure when you're making it the videos it's storytelling type videos where they can understand the story from just visuals. If you can un if you can communicate this clearly, you're going to make so much money. All right. Um,
463:08
Speaker A
there's actually here I'm going to give you guys a good example of this. So, this is Daniel Labella and basically what he does is he does videos where he just runs around and it's pretty funny, right? He has humorous videos where he
463:18
Speaker A
runs around and he cleans stuff. But what's awesome about this, I mean, his most popular video has 1.6 billion views. Now, before you even watch this, remember there's only 1.5 billion people in the world who can speak English, and
463:32
Speaker A
this got 1.6 billion views. So, hm, that's a little interesting. Let's watch it. So, the first thing I notice when I'm watching this is there's no music. The second thing is there's no captions. The third thing is it can be communicated
463:47
Speaker A
through any language. This is not limited by English. It's not limited by Spanish. It's not limited by Japanese.
463:52
Speaker A
Hell, you can speak an alien language and probably still understand what is going on here. And the reason why is because he's communicating through actions and storytelling. And that's why this video got 1.7 well 1.7 actually billion views. It's crazy. It's crazy
464:07
Speaker A
the type of things he's pulling here. But the reason this is possible is because he's using storytelling to actually be able to, you know, communicate how um how to actually, you know, get views. He's using storytelling to communicate to multiple people in
464:21
Speaker A
multiple different languages and that's how he's getting multiple views. Sorry if this video is a little all over the place. I'm very tired right now, but I hope I'm communicating everything as clearly as I can. Anyways, so make sure
464:30
Speaker A
you're picking your niche correctly. Make sure it's a multi- language. Make sure your retention is uh around 100%.
464:36
Speaker A
Make sure your swipe to ratio is 85%. And make sure your average view duration is 35 seconds. If you can hit all of these stats consistently over the course of like 14 days, I promise you, you're going to be able to break out of any
464:48
Speaker A
view jail you're in. And by the way, as you grow more and more, you're going to have to increase this. This is for breaking out of like around 30kish view jail. If you want to break out of like
464:58
Speaker A
for example 10 million view jail, you're going to need to increase your swipe ratio to like you know 80 86 87% because those one two percent differences is a difference between like you know 1 million views and 5 million views. It's
465:10
Speaker A
it's crazy. It's crazy how different it is. So here I want to show you the channel that's getting around 400 million views and then we're going to call it a day. So, this video got 141 million views. And if we just go to
465:19
Speaker A
engagement over here, you can see we had an 85.7% swipe ratio. And you can see also the impressions on this video, we reached 141 million people. If we go to the audience over here and we actually just check it out, um, we see that of course
465:36
Speaker A
most people were not subscribed, but you know, we have a pretty wide range of geographic here. Of course, I'm not going to actually show the video, but the fact of the matter is it's pretty evenly split among US, Brazil, Mexico,
465:46
Speaker A
Indonesian, Philippines, and by the way, these are all different languages. People in United States do not speak um Portuguese. People from Brazil do not speak Spanish. People from SP um Mexico do not speak Indonesian, and so on and
465:59
Speaker A
so on, you know. So, the fact that this video that got 141 million views is split pretty evenly geographically means that the reason why this video got so many views is because it's getting shown to people in all different types of
466:11
Speaker A
languages. So, guys, please when you're making a video, think, hm, if people are watching this and they speak Spanish, can they understand what is going on?
466:19
Speaker A
Right? And if they can't, then maybe you're doing something wrong. And it's okay to, for example, if you're making clipping videos on like I show speed, of course it's going to have to be English because he's only able to speak English.
466:32
Speaker A
But if you edit it in a way that's entertaining that people who don't even speak English, like people in Spanish can still watch and be entertained, then you're doing something right. Let's talk about how to fix your view. Jail
466:42
Speaker A
problem. So, when people think of the word view jail, they think of the algorithm limiting the amount of views they're getting because, you know, either you're getting stopped by the algorithm or it's the algorithm's fault or YouTube doesn't like you. And all of
466:55
Speaker A
these things are just not true. The problem is you aren't optimizing your channel correctly or you're just not making good enough content. So, I got this one comment yesterday of someone saying they were getting 70%, you know, uh, average or 70% swipe ratio and they
467:08
Speaker A
were getting like 100% average view duration. So SW, remember, stands for swipe ratio and R stands for retention.
467:15
Speaker A
So they're getting 70% retention or swipe ratio and 100% retention. And they were asking, well, why am I not, you know, going mega viral? Because my my videos are good and I'm only stuck at 30,000 views. Well, then I I called this
467:26
Speaker A
guy actually. I had a conversation with him over call and we basically, you know, reviewed his uh entire YouTube channel and this is what we found. So when we went to his YouTube channel, we checked his settings and then we went to
467:37
Speaker A
channel and we saw that he didn't select a country of residence. That was the first thing. The second thing is he didn't have any future eligibility here.
467:45
Speaker A
So if you look on a channel like whatever channel you're on, you'll see, you know, one is checked and you're probably going to have two or three unchecked. You guys need to make sure that you have all three of these future
467:55
Speaker A
eligibility checks because it's literally going to allow you to get featured to more people. If you don't do this, you're just not going to get pushed to. You will get 30,000 views and you'll get stopped out. I don't know why
468:06
Speaker A
people don't just go in their settings and look at this, but hey, it's okay if you don't know to do this, but just make sure you do this because it's going to basically increase your trust score. And if you don't know what a trust score is,
468:15
Speaker A
go to boot camp day four. It's going to be in the playlist I linked in the description where we go over everything so far. Um, so this is day five.
468:21
Speaker A
Anyways, that's the first thing. All right, make sure you have your settings correct on YouTube. The second thing is understanding trend lines. Now, if you've ever traded stocks, you're going to understand that when you see a bullish run, which if you don't know
468:34
Speaker A
what that is, it's fine. It basically means that whenever you get a higher high, you're going to get a higher low and then you get another higher high and another higher low and it's going to keep doing this, right? So, this is
468:43
Speaker A
basically um explained in bullish terms. And what it means is if you have a video like let's say this is one video and it goes viral and then your second video doesn't do as well. But if you upload
468:55
Speaker A
your third video, it may go higher. And of course, these numbers may vary. Maybe it'll be five videos you go viral and then four videos you're going down and then the fifth video you go even more viral. But the idea is that every single
469:05
Speaker A
time you upload something, you know, you're going to increase the baseline of views you are getting. So let's look at this real quick. You can see over here um that you know the first video let's say got let's say it got 10K views,
469:20
Speaker A
right? Then you upload the second video and it maybe got 8K views, right? Now this video got 8K views and now this is your new baseline. And you'll notice that usually as long as you're uploading quality content, your trend line is
469:31
Speaker A
never going to hit that baseline. and you're going to be quote unquote stuck in 30k view jail, but you're not really stuck. You just need to upload more content because if you have a channel for three months and you upload videos
469:42
Speaker A
every day and it's consistently getting better and better, your trend line's going to look like this. It's going to keep going up. And you can see on this channel here, let me switch it real quick. So, this is a channel that I ran
469:51
Speaker A
probably back in April, so I'm okay actually showing it. Um, in this channel, we scaled really quickly. I mean, we scaled to 400,000 views in the span of only like a couple days. I think it took like maybe a week to get 400,000
470:03
Speaker A
views. And we broke out of 30k 30k view jail very very quickly. And the reason how is because we uploaded the first video, they got 4,000 views. Second video got 30,000. And this is where most people quit right here. They get 30 to
470:14
Speaker A
40,000 views and they see a dip and it goes from 40,000 back to 30,000. They're like, "Oh, no, no, no. My videos I'm in 40." But you guys got to keep uploading consistently good quality content. If you're uploading every single day at the
470:28
Speaker A
exact same time, high quality content, you're going to see that the trend line keeps going up and up and down. And you can see we had a dip here. But then I realized that, you know, there was too
470:36
Speaker A
much saturation and I stopped uploading on the channel. But, you know, within a week of uploading, we got 1,000 subscribers and 400,000 views. If I kept going, I could have probably monetized this channel. And I do have a bigger
470:46
Speaker A
channel that is like this that has 400,000 subscribers, but I'm not going to show it in this video. I'm going to save it for another video because um I think that channel deserves an entire video of its own for just analyzing
470:56
Speaker A
everything. But this is kind of the idea of trend lines. So, if we're looking at this real quick, we're going to see that, you know, the first time we had a big drop was over here. And you're going
471:06
Speaker A
to see the trend line dropped at kind of the same level as the previous the second previous peak. And it's going to consistently keep doing this, you know.
471:15
Speaker A
So you look look the second time it drops higher it's going to be kind of aligned with the second highest peak and you can see over here the third one aligned with this one. So you'll see if this actually kept going and I kept
471:27
Speaker A
uploading the third one would have probably been over here. It probably would have gone like this this way because that's just how trend lines work with YouTube. You know it's not the algorithm's fault. It's not YouTube hating you. It's just you not
471:38
Speaker A
understanding trend lines and understanding that the videos will consistently go viral. Now remember you need to have your settings checked beforehand. That's pretty much it, by the way. That's pretty much fixing view jail. You just need to upload good
471:47
Speaker A
content. You know, you could optimize your retention. You could optimize your swipe ratio. You can optimize everything. But if you aren't uploading consistently at the same time every single day and your settings aren't correct, you're kind of going to be
471:58
Speaker A
stuck. Now, to some people, this video may be useless because maybe you didn't comprehend what I said and that's okay.
472:04
Speaker A
But for some people who maybe got it clicked just now, I'm happy I was able to help you. You know, that's pretty much breaking out of YouTube jail. Also, I guess one caveat. I'm going to put a little caveat here. Um, so let's just
472:14
Speaker A
put a PS. If you guys are stuck and you're in a small niche, let's say you're making pottery videos, look at the top pottery video in your niche. If the highest pottery video on YouTube has 10 million views and you're wondering
472:30
Speaker A
why you're stuck at, you know, 50,000 views and you're not scaling up anymore, maybe because the audience itself is just too small. Because there are limits to these things. You can't get 7 billion views making pottery, right? It's just
472:43
Speaker A
not realistic because there's not not everyone in the world cares about pottery, you know? So, if you're getting 10 million views on a video, you know, or you want 10 get to 10 million views and you're stuck at 50k views, but your
472:56
Speaker A
niche itself is just complete duty, you know, then maybe you're in the wrong niche. And also, speaking of niches, I guess I should mention this as well. Um, before I end this video, I want to talk about what I use to find my niches.
473:12
Speaker A
So, this is Verlo. And what Verlo is, it's basically like a little app I use to find out videos. So, you can see over here we have recent outliers. And you can click for YouTube or for Tik Tok.
473:22
Speaker A
So, I actually usually go for Tik Tok because on Tik Tok, it usually means that it's not on YouTube yet or it's likely to go viral on YouTube soon. So, for example, if we looked at let's say this video right here, it's an ASMR
473:35
Speaker A
video. And if I don't want to do ASMR, then I probably wouldn't do something like this. Now, if I keep going, I'm going to see this right here. It's like a little um Roblox video. If I click on
473:45
Speaker A
it and click on this right here, it's going to take me to the actual channel of the video itself. And I'm going to be able to actually be able to, you know, analyze why this video went viral and
473:54
Speaker A
see, hey, maybe I can take this and put it on YouTube. Now, Verlo has been up for like 4 months now. So, actually, this is a pretty recent little platform that got released and they already have 35,000 users on it, which is pretty
474:06
Speaker A
insane. Um, it's a it's a very good app. I mean, I'm not going to lie, I actually do use this pretty regularly. If you want to check it out, it's going to be linked in the description, but also I
474:14
Speaker A
want to share something else as well. When you go to outliers over here, you're going to be able to kind of look at everything in more detail. And, you know, it's going to be, you know, you look at food, you look at pets, you can
474:22
Speaker A
look at um, you know, what is this? WNBA rankings. I don't know what this thumbnail is. A little funny. Uh, but you know, there's going to be all types of videos in here that's going to kind of be a way for you to kind of start
474:33
Speaker A
looking for channels that you want to make. Now, you're going to see a lot of these are talking head videos and a lot of them aren't. Like, for example, this is definitely an AI video over here.
474:41
Speaker A
This is like, you know, it's literally just B-roll and you can put a caption behind it. There's all types of ways you can use this app to find um, I guess outliers and find your own niche. Now, if you go to the dashboard of the actual
474:52
Speaker A
Verlo thing, you're going to see on the top here, you're going to see brain rod, soccer clips, skits, animals. These things are doing pretty well. And if we actually clicked on Brain Rot, we're going to get an entire like you can see
475:02
Speaker A
in the past couple of days, it has over a billion views on just Brain Rot. And it's going to look at all the outliers.
475:08
Speaker A
Look, 5 billion total views on just the Brain Rot, you know, content. So, it's saying over here that, you know, the chance to perform is not that high, but if we actually just scroll down, we'll be able to kind of look at all the
475:20
Speaker A
analytics of Brain Rot and see what's trending. So, you can see September 1, we had a very, very big high. Uh it was uh nearly a combined total of 300 million views for just brain rock content alone. There's lots of different
475:32
Speaker A
categories of what's actually trending. Like for example, Roblox is an amazing category to get into right now on YouTube. If you click on Roblox, you're going to see um all of the kind of stats of what's performing well. And you can
475:42
Speaker A
see like Roblox actually is in a little dip right now. And that's really good for us because that means that's a good time for us to entry and to actually start making Roblox content. It breaks down all the analytics. Like you can
475:51
Speaker A
see, United States has 500 million views on just Roblox alone, which is 33% of all the Roblox. And here are some of the top videos right now. And you know, it's just it's crazy all the analytics it gives you. You can see all the
476:02
Speaker A
competitors. This is for YouTube. If you want to switch here, you can uh switch to or this is for YouTube. If you want to do, you can switch to YouTube or Tik Tok. Here, if you click on all
476:09
Speaker A
platforms, you can switch on Tik Tok and then actually be able to see, you know, Tik Tok has these trending. Usually, if Tik Tok is trending, that means that it's going to go viral on YouTube soon.
476:18
Speaker A
So, you know, there's all types of ways to you this use this uh this app. I've been using it for a while now. If you want to check it out, really it's in the description to check it out. I think
476:26
Speaker A
it's like maybe 20 bucks a month. And there's also other better plans if you want to as well. But that's kind of what I use to find my niches. But anyways, talking about that, make sure you click the correct niche and find the correct
476:37
Speaker A
niche because if you use the correct niche, you're going to make a lot of money. If you find a niche that is actually, you know, performing well and you, you know, get lots of views in it, don't be surprised when you do get lots
476:47
Speaker A
of views because it's not a small niche. Like for example, Roblox is much higher than pottery. So make Roblox videos, not pottery videos.
476:54
Speaker A
I know you want to chase like what you love and enjoy and stuff, but YouTube is all about optimization. So if you're optimizing correctly the correct platform, you're going to get the most amount of views. In the past seven days,
477:03
Speaker A
I've generated over 15 million views on one single account. And if you don't believe me, I'm going to show you a couple accounts I've run in this video.
477:11
Speaker A
I'm running 10 currently that's getting me over 50 million views a month right now and generating me over $20,000 a month. So, in this video, I'm going to show you everything and get into it.
477:19
Speaker A
There's no gatekeeping. Also, there's no course to buy if you look in the description. There's no course um there's no mentorship or anything. Maybe there's a Discord because I'm trying to grow community, but other than that, let's get straight into it. So, this is
477:29
Speaker A
the first account I run, which is the one you're watching on right now. My Devon Cath account, my Devon Talks account. Um I run a ton of different clipping accounts on TikTok. And then this is the account right here that got
477:38
Speaker A
me 50 million views uh in one week. And then I also run a couple Instagram accounts. And this is the Shopify for my tiny truck, which is this one that I'm selling right now. And I'm going to show
477:47
Speaker A
you my phone so I can like show you all the accounts I run. And I can show you I actually own them and I'm logged into them so you don't think I'm BSing you.
477:53
Speaker A
Anyways, let me show you the accounts right now. All right, so we're on my phone right now. I should be recording it. And if I just go to my Tik Tok first, you'll see these are all the accounts that I run. I mean, not all of
478:03
Speaker A
them are logged in. You can only be logged into nine Tik Tok accounts at a time, but I'm going to show you all of these and kind of show you the details about each one. So, first let's go
478:10
Speaker A
through the analytics of the Zero to Heroish account. Um, if you haven't seen the video styles like this before, it's kind of just like uh these like edited videos where it's like uh something funny and then it'll it'll be like uh
478:23
Speaker A
it it'll it'll be like some type of like kind of like dark humor thing and then they'll put like uh the text over it.
478:29
Speaker A
Anyways, let me show you the analytics for this account. So, this account um we're only up 5 million views in the past seven days. See, we're down 10 million if you look at it closely. And, um if I customize and just go to the
478:40
Speaker A
16th 23rd, which is one week, you can see we got 15 million views in one single week on this account. We were getting 5 million view days. And you can see we're not estimated our estimated revenue is zero right now because this
478:51
Speaker A
account only got started three weeks ago. I started this March uh 20 or March 4th and we're on March 29th right now.
478:58
Speaker A
Um, if you see if I can go the past 28 days, you'll see um I literally just started this account and on on our worst days, we're getting like 50,000 views a day. This is one account, by the way. If
479:07
Speaker A
you go to my second account, which is one of my clipping accounts, I also um run this one as well. I have a team of clippers who help me. The views are down a little bit, but you can see um this
479:16
Speaker A
actually supposed to say 41 million views, but last year I was scaling this like crazy, and we were getting around uh I think I had a couple days where we were getting like a couple million views um a day on this one. uh but it doesn't
479:26
Speaker A
show because it only shows in the past uh 365 days. And I was scaling this around uh January uh 24 2024 to uh February 2024. But as you can see, I mean, I run all of these accounts. And
479:38
Speaker A
this is just my TikTok as well. I'm not logged into my clipping accounts right now, but I also do run my clipping accounts for the SML. Um like here, if you look at my uh screen real quick, these two accounts I also do run um as
479:49
Speaker A
well, these two SML fan pages. And the these both generated me um a little over 10K. I mean before uh the accounts got demonetized for clipping. But yeah, you can see the views on here were crazy. I was getting like consistently like 50 to
480:02
Speaker A
60,000 views a video. Some videos were hitting like 200,000 views. And yeah, these videos uh I scale these really quickly. Um also, if we just go to my Instagram over here, I'm logged into my personal account right now. You will see
480:14
Speaker A
all these accounts I run over here. And you'll see this one, which is my tiny truck account. Um, and this account I get around, I think, 500 to a,000 views a day on this account. And this helps me, you know, scale my Shopify store
480:28
Speaker A
close. Okay, 242,000 views in the past day, which is still that's pretty good. Um, and we also have the Mr. Pointer account, which I run. I'm sure you've probably seen this somewhere, this meme somewhere of Mr. Pointer. I'm the guy
480:40
Speaker A
who's running that. And, um, on this account, uh, see here, in the past day, we have gotten another 200,000 views. So yeah, we're getting roughly around 1 million views a day across all my accounts. I mean, I'm not going to go
480:54
Speaker A
into every single account I run, but like I'm showing you my screen. I'm sure you can believe me. My editor is going to have to blur out my emails here, but you can see I also do run all of these
481:03
Speaker A
YouTube channels as well. And I have a team of people who work with me and help me make these videos. And I am the sole person who kind of helps scale these things up. So, I kind of want to go into
481:13
Speaker A
what in the world I did to go from uh, you know, wherever I was like zero views six months ago to now getting, you know, 15 million views a week and around a million views a day right now. So, what
481:26
Speaker A
did I do? Well, the first thing I did was upload more. And this is going to sound like the most basic advice, but please just put the phone down and listen to me for a second. All right.
481:35
Speaker A
The reason why you're not getting millions and millions of views every single day is because you have not uploaded enough on these accounts. Like for example, this account I've uploaded 47 videos. This account 675 videos. This account I have uploaded so many videos.
481:47
Speaker A
And the reason I'm able to output so much is because I work tirelessly. I work like 18 hours a day on these videos. All of these videos, all these clipping accounts, all of this. I mean, of course, I pay people to help me as
481:57
Speaker A
well, but I I mean, I'm working so hard on these videos, and I'm putting so much effort into it. Effort that most you probably aren't putting into it because most people after they upload their first five videos or so, they will quit.
482:09
Speaker A
This is the usual metric. After five videos, they will just quit. And then they will never upload a video again.
482:14
Speaker A
And they'll think, "Oh, it's just luck." And then, uh, you know, this guy went viral because he got lucky. And it's not luck. It's just consistency. Because if we go back to my analytics real quick, which I'll show you guys again. So, if
482:25
Speaker A
we go to my Zero Hero account and we just look at the analytics, you'll see, you know, the videos started off really, really slow. The first uh couple days, like I was only getting around 100,000 views per day. And that may sound like a
482:36
Speaker A
lot to you, but to me, I understood that, hey, I'm only getting really low views right now. I'm only getting around 100,000. I know I can be getting millions of views a day right now. So, I just kept uploading. So, from March 4th
482:48
Speaker A
to March 16th, which was 12 days, I consistently uploaded two times a day, every single day on this account. And then we hit our first 5 million view day and then our three million view day and then a 5.3 million view day. And this
482:59
Speaker A
account's going to get monetized soon. and it's probably going to be making, I don't know, maybe $30,000 a month on this account once it's monetized. And that's one account, by the way. Let me say it again. That's one account. So,
483:10
Speaker A
the reason why most people get stuck in zero view jail or you're stuck in a really low view counts is, you know, usually the most basic answer is your content just sucks. And I'm going to be straight up with you. The only reason to
483:21
Speaker A
get good at making better content is putting in repetition. As someone who knows how to make good t content, has been doing this for seven years now, I understand what makes a good video. For example, you want to have good
483:31
Speaker A
retention, of course. And if you don't know where retention is, I'll break it down right here. So, where retention is, it's the amount of times someone watches your video. For example, if you look at, let's see, one of my YouTube videos over
483:41
Speaker A
here, you'll see this video got 1.3 million views. And the retention graph is amazing. I have 121% retention, and the graph kind of looks like this, where it's pretty flat. And this is what you want to be aiming for. But a bad video's
483:52
Speaker A
retention is going to look like this, where it kind of goes like this and drops. And I'll show you this right now.
483:57
Speaker A
So you'll see this video right here got 482 views which is very very bad. And you can see the retention goes like this and it drops just like my graph right here. It goes like this and drops. And
484:07
Speaker A
you'll notice the correlation of the retention. So if this drops here but my most viral video which was this one is you know get looking like this then you need to be aiming for good retention because retention is key to going viral
484:19
Speaker A
consistently. If you want to consistently go viral think about the graph and think about people who are watching your videos. If the retention, you know, the AVD, average view duration of your videos is bad, then why would platforms push out their videos? Because
484:32
Speaker A
platforms want one thing, to make sure they're pushing out good content to keep people on their platform. So, if your videos suck, which they probably do, and I'm not trying to be offensive, it's true. You need to be critical of
484:43
Speaker A
yourself. You need to critique yourself and say, "Hey, my content sucks right now. That's okay. I'm going to use this as a failure and improve upon it." So, let's go over a checklist of everything you need to do in order to actually make
484:52
Speaker A
a viral video and consistently get this sweet average view duration of 121%. Number one, I'm going to say this is the most important thing. Have a good idea.
485:02
Speaker A
A lot of you guys when you're seeing, you know, videos that are doing well, you have the idea of, oh, I'm going to copy them, and when I copy them, I'm going to go viral, too, because they went viral. But the problem is, you
485:11
Speaker A
aren't as skilled at them at copying their videos. If you were able to replicate their video frame by frame, I guarantee you're probably going to get some views, but the algorithm knows when you're copying other people's videos.
485:22
Speaker A
What you need to do is you need to take their idea that's already good and make it better. If you see a video that has gone viral, take it and re-upload it again, but you know, change the idea up
485:32
Speaker A
a little bit. Think about how could I improve upon this video to make it reach more people. Idea generation is one of the most important things you need to learn and understand to make viral content consistently because without the
485:42
Speaker A
good idea, you're not going to get good videos because the idea and how you package is everything. Mr. Beast has said this multiple times in multiple podcasts, but one good video idea is going to get you a thousand times more
485:52
Speaker A
views than an okay idea. For example, he spent $1 million filling like an island full of sand and he thought the idea was bad. So, he just scrapped it and then, you know, lost a million dollars because he knows that a good idea is going to be
486:04
Speaker A
worth way way more than $1 million of an okay idea because that's going to ruin his brand reputation. And right now, if you're focusing on, you know, getting a good idea and you're having trouble with it, it's okay. Make sure to upload. And
486:15
Speaker A
that goes into our second point as well. So, even though this may contradict our first point a little bit, you need to make sure you're putting in reps. So, what does reps mean? Reps means the repetition you put into making videos.
486:26
Speaker A
For example, on this tank truck video I or this channel, I have uploaded 675 times on this account and I've consistently gotten viral multiple times. I have two videos over 10 million views on this account alone. On this
486:39
Speaker A
account, only 10 million views on two different videos. And I've gone viral multiple times on this one. Like I said earlier, most people quit only after uploading five videos. So, if you can upload six videos, then seven videos,
486:48
Speaker A
then eight, and keep, you know, looking at your content, looking at the retention graph, seeing, okay, people dropped here. Why did people leave here?
486:54
Speaker A
And I'm going to show you how to actually do retention editing and retention learning so you can learn how to look at your videos and and understand what you're doing wrong. And that moves into our third point, which
487:04
Speaker A
is retention learning. You want to basically criticize yourself, look at your videos over and over again, and look at when people dip on the video and understand why they left. So, let's do some retention learning right now together so I can kind of show you what
487:15
Speaker A
your thought process should be when you're watching these videos and learning the retention. So, this is one of my channels that I used to spam upload videos. And I used to actually practice retention editing. So, let's look at this video right here. This
487:25
Speaker A
video got 2.6,000 views and it's a video titled blue, but the color is red. And I know this video doesn't have a lot of views, but we're going to look at why this video did not perform well and why
487:34
Speaker A
I probably could have done something better. So, first of all, YouTube gives the best analytics. And you can see this video only had a 4.9% clickthrough rate, which means it's pretty bad. And you don't want to have a clickthrough rate
487:44
Speaker A
that's like below 6%. You want to be aiming for 6% at the minimum. As for the retention, it looks like 61% of the people who are watching stayed for the first 60 seconds, but then it started dipping down more and more and more
487:55
Speaker A
towards the end. So, let's watch this video real quick. Great. You've made it this far. Now that I have your attention, so you'll see right here that I went from 100% to uh 92%, which means we lost 8% of our
488:06
Speaker A
audience in the first second. And I think the reason why is because the background is pretty boring. Uh the text is pretty boring and overall I think this video in general was just pretty boring. The idea was boring behind it.
488:16
Speaker A
But this is when I was practicing retention. And what you can do is you can just keep looking at your videos over and over again and then practicing more and more and more understanding why your retention is bad. For example, this
488:25
Speaker A
video has 47.7% retention. And it looks like 30 seconds in 63% of the people who are watching uh were only staying which means 37% of the people. So, this video got 25,500 views. And it looks like at the 30 secondond mark already, uh, 63%
488:41
Speaker A
of the people were staying, which, you know, may seem okay, but look at this giant drop. This means that almost 40% of the people who were watching this video left in the first 30 seconds, which is why the hook is so important,
488:50
Speaker A
but let's look at this video and understand why. Yeah, you know, a billion dollars if we could own the channel and the company.
488:56
Speaker A
I just remember being like, I don't know. I just So, right away, it's just boring. Like, it's just boring. There's not enough information in your face. I mean, the title uh is pretty interesting. How does Mr. Beast. Uh, how does Mr. Beast really
489:07
Speaker A
make? How much money does Mr. Beast I mean, the title is kind of interesting.
489:11
Speaker A
How much money does Mr. Beast really make? But I think the idea was just okay, which is why the clickthrough rate was only 4.9% for this video as well.
489:18
Speaker A
So, understanding that the click-through rate and the retention of your video is going to be very important on the outcome of how much views you get and the idea generation behind it is going to determine if your video actually goes
489:28
Speaker A
viral and performs well or not. But you need to make sure that when you are actually choosing your idea, you deliver in the first 30 seconds. I don't know if you saw, but YouTube will always show a highlight of the first 30 seconds of
489:40
Speaker A
your video because they want to make sure that you are paying attention to the hooks of your videos because the hook is one of the most important aspects to your video. So, I'm going to call this 1.5. I know we're jumping all
489:51
Speaker A
over the place, but hooks is really, really important. And the reason why is because the first 30 seconds of your video for long form is very important.
489:57
Speaker A
You can see here that from this long form video, all the long form ones, they're going to have this like uh 30 second highlight in the beginning. And that's because YouTube understands that the first 30 seconds of a video is
490:07
Speaker A
crucial for someone actually staying. And if you're watching this video still right now, it means I hooked you in because I showed you all of my accounts over here, all these accounts that I ran. Then I showed you my screen. And
490:17
Speaker A
then I showed you how much money I made. And then you see what I'm saying? I scripted the first part of this video so you could actually get hooked in. And then I kind of let loose and I started
490:26
Speaker A
to be raw and authentic because I wanted to make sure I can just be myself on camera. And it's kind of hard for me to script all this because most of this information that I'm teaching is honestly just in my head. I don't really
490:34
Speaker A
need to think about this too much because I've just been doing this for so long. So remember that your intention behind your video is really important.
490:40
Speaker A
Have intention. I guarantee you that any, you know, big YouTuber, big content creator you watch, they actually think about the first 3 seconds for short form or 30 seconds for long form. And that moves in to short form content, which is
490:52
Speaker A
the next part of this video. So let's get into this. All right, so short form and long form content. What exactly is the difference? The first thing is that short form and long form, they both require storytelling, but short form you
491:04
Speaker A
have to do it in a obviously much shorter fashion. So if you're doing any type of videos, um you want to make sure that the videos you're making are storytelling type videos. You want to tell a story or convey some type of
491:14
Speaker A
emotion because emotions is how you go viral. If you're not able to convince the audience that you're, you know, for them to feel any type of emotion other than boring, then they're just simply not going to watch. So, what I call this
491:24
Speaker A
is the Tik Tok trance. So, what the Tik Tok trance is, it's basically a hypnosis where when you're on Tik Tok, you constantly watch videos. And if you see a boring video, what do you do? You scroll away if it's boring. And if it's
491:34
Speaker A
interesting, what do you do? You stay and you watch and you're happy. So, if your video has very good emotions, then people are going to stay and actually watch your video. Now, there's different types of emotions you can try to convey
491:46
Speaker A
to your audience. There's happiness, maybe there's sadness, maybe there's rage baiting, whatever you're trying to do, you need to make sure your audience is feeling something because if they're not feeling anything, then they're going to go back to this boring state and then
491:56
Speaker A
they're going to watch they're going to not watch your videos and then you're going to get less and less views. Now, with long form, it's a little different.
492:02
Speaker A
The reason why long form, I think, is harder is because there's less room for error. So, on short form, you can actually make a lot of videos and you can, you know, fail because it's okay.
492:11
Speaker A
It only takes an hour to make a video. But for short form or long form, I mean, there is so much error that could take place and one single mistake can make everyone leave at that certain point in
492:21
Speaker A
the video and then you're going to, you know, get less less views because you can put, you know, a week into a long form video. But if you somehow, you know, mess up your attention, maybe you missed something, maybe you misspeak in
492:31
Speaker A
something, then your attention is going to go way down and then all of a sudden you're going to get way less views. So in short form, you have more room for error. So what does that mean? It means
492:39
Speaker A
you should probably practice short form first. So, I recommend anyone watching this video, if you're not good at content yet, to practice the short form, uh, content because practice makes perfect. And the more videos you upload, um, the better you're going to get. Now,
492:51
Speaker A
this actually brings in me to the next point. I saw this on a Tik Tok recently.
492:54
Speaker A
How many videos should you be uploading per day? Now, the common misconception is anywhere from one to four videos a day. And screw that. I'm telling you to upload like 50 videos a day, 100 videos a day. And that sounds crazy, but stop
493:06
Speaker A
and just listen to me for a second. the reason why you're not getting views is because you haven't put in the reps as I said in step two of how to make or how to go viral on social media, you haven't
493:15
Speaker A
put enough reps in and you haven't built your skills. But if you put more reps in and you're uploading like 50 to 100 videos a day, then you're going to actually start getting good and natural at being on camera. Now, Devon, you may
493:23
Speaker A
be asking like, Devin, I can't upload 100 videos a day. I don't have time for that. Well, okay, that's good. That's fine. But you need to understand that there are people who are uploading 50 videos a day, 100 videos a day. They're
493:32
Speaker A
literally spending 18 hours a day. They get up making videos all day and then going to sleep and doing it again. This is what I used to I used to do this on so many different accounts. I mean, I
493:39
Speaker A
showed you here. These are just some of the accounts that I run right now. These are just some of the accounts. And I'm not even logged into all of them. I have so much more Gmails. These are some more
493:46
Speaker A
accounts I run right here. More accounts, more accounts, more accounts, more account. And it just keeps going.
493:50
Speaker A
And the reason why is because I understand that I suck at something. The only way to get better at something is practice. So, if you're not practicing this like it's a sport, like it's a skill where you're just on it 18 hours a
494:00
Speaker A
day every single day, then I promise you there's probably someone else who's getting ahead of you and then you're going to say, "Oh, he got lucky cuz he went viral." No, he's been doing this 18 hours a day consistently. Of course,
494:10
Speaker A
there are some girls or guys who will go viral because they're dancing or maybe they look attractive or whatever, right?
494:15
Speaker A
But I'm talking about you, the person who wants to grind right now and want to get consistently 1 million views a day like I'm doing right now. I didn't just magically get here. Oops. Oh, I'm getting a million views. No, I've been
494:26
Speaker A
doing this for seven years. I know what I'm doing now, which is why all of this is so detailed and informative. I mean, I know I'm maybe not explaining this the best of my ability right now, but I hope
494:36
Speaker A
this is making at least a little bit of sense. Now, let's go into our next point. Let's say you actually get a viral video and what do you do from here? Now, I don't know why, but so many
494:45
Speaker A
people when they get a viral video, they have the idea of like, oh, I'm going to try something new. Like, bro, that is the most stupid thing you could possibly do. And let me tell you why. Right? If
494:54
Speaker A
you get a viral video, and in my eyes, viral is at least 1 million views.
494:57
Speaker A
That's my idea of viral. If you get at least 1 million views, you should be replicating and milking the heck out of that. Because if this video got, you know, 1 million views and there's 8 billion people in the world, that means
495:08
Speaker A
there's still 8,000 more demographics of people, that's how I see it at least, that could potentially see your video.
495:13
Speaker A
So that means that you should be aiming for more. If you see a video that goes viral or you see someone else's video that goes viral, that's why I said earlier, you need to learn how to replicate and repeat. So, if you see,
495:23
Speaker A
you know, let's say you're running a drop shipping product and then all of a sudden this video, you know, gets like six million views, analyze it. I used to spend hours a day going frame by frame on every single video I would watch that
495:34
Speaker A
went viral. And I would go, okay, why did they do this? Why is this here? Why is this here? And I would start noticing small details like the background, the lighting, where the caption is, the placement of the caption, where the
495:43
Speaker A
camera is, the placement of the product, where the placement of the face is. Is the face really up here? Is it low? No, it's always in the center. um when they're looking at the camera, they look at the camera like this or do they look
495:52
Speaker A
kind of like at the actual screen? There's all these different things that you have to take into account when you're making a video. It's not just, oh, it's easy, just press and record. I actually had a conversation with my
496:00
Speaker A
girlfriend about this like a month ago, and I was telling her like, um, you should try making videos. She's like, no, no, that's easy. I really don't want to. And I was like, easy? And I I got kind of angry. And I was like, what do
496:11
Speaker A
you mean easy? Making videos is not easy. And she's like, no, you just record. I'm like, "You think I get 50 million views a month by just hitting record? I planned everything." And she was like, "Okay, okay. Sorry, I got a
496:23
Speaker A
little heated." I know. I shouldn't have been so heated, but I was like, "No, you need to do this. You need to do this.
496:27
Speaker A
You need this." She was like, "Okay, okay, okay." You know, but I'm telling you that this type of stuff is really important. You need to take everything into account. Now, this video I'm not really putting much effort into because
496:36
Speaker A
I'm going to be straight with you. I'm just spitting sauce. And I think this value enough. I mean, if you're watching this still, it means you're probably taking a lot of information from this and you're probably um I'm probably
496:45
Speaker A
helping you a lot right now. And by the way, if this video is helping you, if you guys can drop a sub, I would really appreciate it. You know, simple value exchange. I'm helping you. You can help me by dropping a sub. The main reason I
496:54
Speaker A
want you guys to sub is because I just want to build a nice community of people. And um honestly, I'm just trying to make business friends as well. I mean, recently um I just realized I didn't even show you guys my personal
497:04
Speaker A
brand when I was doing this earlier, but this is my personal brand. I also upload videos and get millions of views a month on this one as well. But yeah, this personal brand I've been trying to build and grow. So, if you just want to follow
497:13
Speaker A
me on Instagram, you can, but you don't need to. If you could just join my Discord, that's the main thing I am running right now. Um, but yeah, anyways, let's go back to it. Now, the last thing I will tell you to start
497:23
Speaker A
helping you go viral more consistently is be your worst enemy. I'm telling you, in this game, you are going to fail so much and you need to use failure as your friend, not your enemy. But you should be your own enemy and you should
497:37
Speaker A
critique yourself constantly. If you see your video not doing well, you need to look at it and be like, why? Don't say the algorithm is screwing me over. Don't say, oh, this video was good. Why didn't it go viral? I'm telling you, the reason
497:49
Speaker A
why is because it sucked. That's just straight up. If it was good, the algorithm would have pushed it out. The algorithm is a very good algorithm. It pushes out great content. That's why when you're scrolling, you constantly feel dopamine all of the time because it
498:00
Speaker A
chooses the best stuff to serve you. And if you want, you know, your content be served to people, that means you need to serve the best content. So, understand that you suck. I I'm straight up. I'm not I don't want to be rude, but I'm
498:11
Speaker A
serious. Your content sucks and you need to do better. Because if your content didn't suck, you would you wouldn't be watching this video right now, and you would have probably already been getting a million views a month or a million
498:21
Speaker A
views a week or a day or whatever your goal is. My goal right now is to get 1 billion views a a month right now. In order to do that, I need to improve my content because my content also sucks.
498:32
Speaker A
I'm constantly critiquing myself and seeing what I need to do better. And because of that, that's where I am right now. And that's how I am where I am right now. Because if I didn't critique myself, I wouldn't be here. So, be your
498:43
Speaker A
worst enemy. That's going to be the last tip. So, I want to take the time in this video to explain everything that you need to know about YouTube trust scores.
498:52
Speaker A
So, I'm sure you've heard the terms before. If you've, you know, been in this YouTube community or just in general, if you've done YouTube videos, you probably know what a trust score is.
499:00
Speaker A
Now, if you don't know what it is, I'm going to explain in a second. But before I explain everything about trust scores, because this is going to be a very long video, let me just show you why you
499:08
Speaker A
should listen to me. Um, this channel we're running right now has $67,000. Um, and yes, this is a real channel. Um, you know, I'm going to show you a ton of channels in this video. you know, I have
499:21
Speaker A
36 channels we're running right now. I can see here, um, you know, we have a lot of channels that we are running, right? And because I understand trust scores and how to utilize them, um, I basically able to automate channels on
499:34
Speaker A
mass scale, which is what we're doing for, you know, a lot of channels. For example, like this channel that's at $116,000, $28,000, $259,000, $452. This is a more new channel that we actually just started up recently, you know, $6,000. And I can keep giving more
499:53
Speaker A
and more examples. But the idea here is we use trust scores a lot, right? To be able to not just, you know, get views, but also maximize our revenue, right?
500:04
Speaker A
Because if we have um, you know, a very high trust score, YouTube will push our videos out to the algorithm and then we will make a lot of money from it, right?
500:13
Speaker A
So, first of all, if you don't know what a trust score is, a trust score is basically I want you to imagine like a credit card score for your channel, right? So, a credit card score, basically how it works is, you know, you
500:26
Speaker A
basically have a score from the bank and you get scored on your credit history, right? And if your credit history is good, your score goes up and then you can receive higher loans, you can get better things from the bank. Pretty much
500:38
Speaker A
any type of approval you want from the bank, you can get with a high credit score, right? And it helps you with a lot of things in life. Now, a trust score is basically the same thing, right? And what it does is it basically
500:50
Speaker A
is a score that is calculated for your channel and then YouTube decides how worthy your channel is to get pushed the algorithm and get views, right? Because if your trust score is higher, YouTube's basically saying that they trust you to
501:03
Speaker A
make them money, right? Because at the end of the day, you know, this $67,000 that we generated, it's not through just uh, you know, us receiving money because we're also making money for YouTube as well, right? You got to remember that
501:17
Speaker A
when you're creating videos. So, anyways, let's talk about everything you need to know about increasing your trust score, every step you need to take, everything you need to do just in general to make the most amount of money
501:28
Speaker A
possible. All right, let's get into it. So, we've kind of already defined it, but I want to go over it again in more detail because this is a long video and you should know everything if you want to be able to do this, right? So, the
501:39
Speaker A
trust score is built up over a variety of things, right? It's built up of channel history, right? And I'll be using this mouse uh and be writing with chicken scratch the rest of this video, but you guys can get the idea, right? So
501:52
Speaker A
uh you know it takes your channel history, it takes uh the actual stats of your video. It takes uh the analytics of other um metrics on your Gmail, right?
502:05
Speaker A
It takes um how much money you've made, if you have any guideline or strikes, right? All of these things are calculated into your trust score. And if you don't know, there are over 30 different metrics on the YouTube
502:19
Speaker A
algorithm that you need to be able to look at when you know you're looking at all your stats, right? So, for example, right in this video or this channel that generated, you know, nearly $300,000 uh in the past year, right? If we go to
502:31
Speaker A
content here, right? Um you'll see that, you know, like we have long form videos here. We have click-through rates, impressions, average view duration, views. Then we have like short form here. And then we have like, you know, our subscribers, our engaged views, and
502:46
Speaker A
you know, if we click on audience down here and we start scrolling down a little bit, you'll see like your new viewer, casual viewer, regular viewer ratio. And, you know, you'll see this for any channel that you're working on,
502:56
Speaker A
right? And there's so many stats you can look at like when your views are active, you know, your device type, your age and gender. All of these contribute to your overall trust score, right? And you need to be able to calculate this into an
503:10
Speaker A
equation to actually get that number that you were looking for. Right? And there's not an exact number. It's either you just calculate if it's higher, lower, or it's kind of in the middle, right? And I'll show how to do it in
503:21
Speaker A
this video. Right? So, this video is going to be like a checklist, right? So, I'm going to basically break down everything you need to do, and I want you to reflect and say, "Hey, have I actually done this?" Right? Because if
503:33
Speaker A
you haven't, then maybe your trust score is a little bit lower, right? Okay, maybe you need to increase it. Okay, so let's go over everything right now. The first thing you need to understand when you are, you know, increasing your trust
503:45
Speaker A
score is you want to make sure that you are creating the actual channel yourself or the channel you're running right now underneath an age Gmail, right? There's this big misconception that you need to have an aged YouTube channel and this is
504:00
Speaker A
not true, right? You could have a YouTube channel that is one day old, right? But a a Gmail is what you actually need to be able to get pushed to the algorithm because remember YouTube is owned by Google and Google's
504:15
Speaker A
Gmail is able to basically check all of the analytics behind the Gmail that you're running on right now. If they see a new Gmail has been created, they may see that as a bot Gmail and not push out
504:26
Speaker A
your channel to the algorithm. Right? So when I am making my channels, I like making them underneath one Gmail, which a lot of people don't like, but I'll explain how to circumvent that later so you don't get banned underneath
504:38
Speaker A
everything, right? Cuz you know what I do is I create everything underneath one super age Gmail, right? This Gmail is like 13 years old. And then I transfer ownership of those channels or I make myself a manager on second channels, uh,
504:50
Speaker A
etc., etc., right? So the age Gmail that you should have, right? the oldest or I guess youngest it should be is six months. As long as your Gmail is six months or older, then you should be in a
505:05
Speaker A
good position. All right? So, make sure your Gmail is 6 months. Now, how you check this is you basically go to your Gmail. You can look at the creation date or you can go and try to find your
505:13
Speaker A
oldest uh you know mail that was sent because usually you get a confirmation email when you know you get an email to your Gmail uh and then just check to see when the oldest one is. If it's older
505:22
Speaker A
than 6 months ago, then you're in a good position. You can start uploading videos on that channel. Now, second thing is actually going to be channel creation.
505:30
Speaker A
Now, I'm actually going to create a channel live with you guys so you guys can see kind of how I do the process for creating the channel to make sure the trust score is set up correctly. So, the
505:40
Speaker A
first thing you want to do is actually go to your YouTube homepage and when you click on your profile picture, you know, because you should have something here.
505:46
Speaker A
You're going to click on switch account. And now, if you have made accounts before, it's okay. Scroll down until you see view all channels. Now, um I have a lot of channels here as you can see here, but if you click on view all
505:58
Speaker A
channels, you will get prompted to a page where you can see all your channels or maybe it's just going to be one or two if you know you're making a uh you know a new channel. And you're going to
506:07
Speaker A
see this option that says create a channel, right? And this is very important for Trust Core, right? So, when you're doing this here, I recommend just you could do whatever name you want. I'm just going to make this like
506:17
Speaker A
Devon uh test channel, right? And then um I'll just channel one because I've done this before in another video. Uh and then you're going to create it. Now you need to make sure you add a profile picture after you complete the steps I'm
506:31
Speaker A
about to show you right now. So first go to YouTube Studio, right? So click on YouTube Studio here and it's going to prompt you. It's going to you take you to a little tutorial and then the thing you want to do before you do anything
506:42
Speaker A
else, don't watch a video, don't upload anything. Click on settings. Click on channel and then click on feature eligibility. Right? These things you need to have enabled immediately. This will boost your trust score up exponentially. If you are stuck in zero
507:00
Speaker A
to 30k view jail and you don't have this enabled, this could be why, right?
507:05
Speaker A
Because trust scores help you break out of view. Jail, right? So, if you go to your channel and make sure you have this enabled, uh this is going to help you exponentially, right? So like complete steps two and three feature eligibility
507:17
Speaker A
cuz steps one is basically always going to be enabled. Uh it's it's enabled as soon as you're you create the channel.
507:23
Speaker A
Steps two and three you need to you know do right away. Now you create step two or you complete step two by verifying a phone number. Do not use a Google phone number. Do not use um an extra phone
507:35
Speaker A
number that you get off the internet. Okay? If you have a phone number that you use consistently, use that. if you don't have an extra phone number because you've made it too many accounts. Um, use your mom's, your dad's, your
507:45
Speaker A
brothers, whoever's, right? Someone you trust. Um, that's what I do. I actually got to the point where I had multiple phones uh because I had to keep creating these accounts because I maxed out mine, my brothers, my mom's, my dad's. Um, and
507:58
Speaker A
you know, I was using my friends at one point and I was like, "Okay, I I got to get more phones." So, that's what I I did to kind of do this. Do not um do not use a Google phone number because it'll
508:09
Speaker A
screw you up big time. All right. Now, as for advanced features, usually you need to have a valid ID. You can also do video verification. Now, I don't recommend doing this if you look younger. Like for example, me, I'm 20
508:20
Speaker A
years old. I look a little bit younger. You know, I could pass as like a 16year-old. So, because of that, YouTube sometimes will like look at the face ID and then like potentially not verify you. You can use just a regular ID. Now,
508:35
Speaker A
I want you guys to know about something. So, if you've gotten stried or I guess terminated before on another account and you use that same ID that you're verifying now, YouTube will match the IDs and then they'll immediately ban
508:48
Speaker A
your channel. So, if you've been terminated, use, you know, your dad's ID or whatever because this is just basically verifying you're a real person. That's all it is, you know. Um, so yeah, just, you know, you can do that
509:00
Speaker A
if you don't have an ID. Uh, one of my students, uh, he didn't have an ID and he was basically just waiting to see if he could use his mom's. And then after around two months, you know, it could be
509:10
Speaker A
anywhere from two weeks to two months, um, just using the the channel in general, watching videos on it and stuff, your channel history can alo also uh, you know, get this feature uh, advanced features number three enabled.
509:23
Speaker A
So, make sure you have this first. This is very important. If you don't have this done, this entire video is basically useless. I'm going to be straight with you. Okay. Um, now for basic info, I recommend selecting a
509:34
Speaker A
country of residence. Select whatever country you're located in. Don't try to lie and say United States because you think it's going to increase your RPM.
509:40
Speaker A
It doesn't. This does not affect anything. It just tells YouTube that, hey, I have a country residence. All right. Another thing as well, do not add any keywords to this, right? Because if we're trying to increase your trust
509:53
Speaker A
score and get the most amount of views to make the most amount of money, right?
509:56
Speaker A
We don't want to use keywords to target specific audiences. Unless you are a niche channel trying to target a niche audience. For example, this channel that you're watching on right now is a niche channel, right? Because I make videos on
510:08
Speaker A
this channel explaining how I run a multitude of channels and make a lot of money, right? So, I have like keywords like business and YouTube automation and e-commerce in here. Now, if you are a general channel that's trying to get the
510:20
Speaker A
most amount of views, even a Roblox channel, a commentary, whatever, right? A ranking channel, don't put any keywords here because it's going to screw up your search and YouTube will push it to the wrong audience and you will get less views. And remember, more
510:33
Speaker A
views equals more money. Okay? So, make sure to select whatever you're located in and then the keywords here. As for advanced features, right, advanced features, I want to make sure you guys um don't set u mess up anything here.
510:48
Speaker A
The main thing you want to make sure is enabled is the visual and audio enhancements. Make sure you let YouTube enhance this because it'll just basically let you upload in higher quality. Um and then also always make sure this audience setting is set to no,
511:04
Speaker A
this is not made for kids, right? Uh because if you um want to review every video to do it every single time, it's pretty annoying. Make sure you say no.
511:12
Speaker A
This is not made for kids. And if your channel is made for kids, like you're making Coca-Clon content, then you're not going to make money because ads won't be personalized and you won't make as much. So say no, it's not made for
511:22
Speaker A
kids. Now, that's all the settings you need to know for now. For upload defaults, you can leave all this blank.
511:29
Speaker A
Remember, no tags, no descriptions, nothing like that. Um that is pretty much everything that you need to know.
511:34
Speaker A
Now, as for language, right, language and caption certification, I recommend just keeping this blank because YouTube will be able to do it automatically.
511:42
Speaker A
Category, it says none here. I recommend clicking on entertainment. This really doesn't affect anything, but if you're, for example, in vlogs, uh, and you're making shorts, it sometimes doesn't push it out as much. So, keep your thing in
511:54
Speaker A
entertainment if you can. This license here, standard YouTube license, make sure this is enabled. If Creative Commons is enabled, which is the second option, it'll basically mean people can steal your content and you can't do anything about it. So, make sure you
512:07
Speaker A
have standard YouTube license enabled. And that should be pretty much everything. You know, all these permissions, everything else. Uh, you know, none of this really matters, anything like that. Um, and you know, that's pretty much everything you need
512:17
Speaker A
for settings. Now, once you do actually complete all your settings, it should look something like this, where you have country residence as whatever you're located in, no keywords, and then future eligibility should all basically be green. This is what you want it to look
512:30
Speaker A
like. If it doesn't look like this, fix it. Okay, awesome. Now that we have basically set up account, the next thing we need to do is actually start uploading videos, right? Well, that's you what you would think, but the first
512:42
Speaker A
thing you actually really need to do is go to your YouTube homepage and check out all of your competitors. Now, this is also a key uh, you know, part of your journey when you're starting to make content. You need to be able to look at
512:55
Speaker A
your competitors and see what you're actually going to upload. So, pick a niche. I'm not going to go into that in this video because this video is just basically optimizing for trust score.
513:02
Speaker A
I'm assuming you already have a niche. If you haven't, you know, picked the niche yet, you can watch another video on my channel to basically understand how to pick niches. But once you have a niche, what you should do is you should
513:12
Speaker A
go to your YouTube homepage and look up all of your competitors, subscribe to them, and watch the top 30 of all of their videos, right? So look at your comp and then go to all of them.
513:24
Speaker A
Subscribe to all of them and then watch the top 30 videos. So this is going to do two things. All right. One, this is going to push people on YouTube toward your channel a little bit. It's a tiny
513:36
Speaker A
little bit of a difference, right? But every difference counts if we're trying to increase your trust score, right? So do this. It's going to also make your page so you can only see your competitors and it's going to give you
513:46
Speaker A
more inspiration for when you're making content later. Awesome. Now, now that you've done all of that, now we can actually get into the video creation process, right? So, there's a couple different stats that you need to be aiming for when you are trying to, you
513:59
Speaker A
know, increase your trust score. And this is probably going to be the longest part of this video because there is a lot of stats to go over, right? Because there's different stats for different channels and there's different average
514:09
Speaker A
viewerations and length of videos. So before I actually break down every stat, I want to break down each term of the stats that are going to be the most important and then we'll go into subimportant stats after. Right? So the
514:20
Speaker A
first stat I want you guys to understand is LOV. Right? I use a lot of abbreviations because it helps me understand things. I'm a very math oriented person and I think it just, you know, there's a lot of different uh
514:31
Speaker A
variables here. So I want you guys to understand this. So LOV stands for length of video, right? Len the video basically means how long a video is, right? So, um, let's say I upload a video that's 30 seconds long on YouTube.
514:45
Speaker A
The LOV of this video is 30 seconds. All right, that's pretty easy enough. AVD stands for average view duration, right?
514:53
Speaker A
So, this is the average view duration of your video. We'll go into more channel stats. You'll be able to see a little bit more in detail, but average view duration stands for um the average length of video that someone's watching.
515:04
Speaker A
So, for example, if your average view duration is um 15 seconds and your length of video is 30 seconds, then we're going to get into the next stat, which is going to be our retention. And I like just saying R for retention. I'm
515:17
Speaker A
sure you've heard this word thrown around all over. And a lot of people don't even know what this means, which is kind of crazy because everyone always talks about this, right? So, we have LOV, link the video, AVD, average view
515:28
Speaker A
duration, and then Retention. Now R is actually um a there's a equation you need to do to actually calculate R, right? So retention is um equated from length of video. So retention is actually equated from average view duration divided by length of video. So,
515:47
Speaker A
as we said earlier, right, if we have a 15-second average view duration and a 30-cond LOV, length of video, then we're going to have a 50% um retention, right? So, the math here is if you do like 15 / 30, right? Um
516:06
Speaker A
you'll get, you know, 0.5 and then we convert that to percentage, so that's going to be 50%. And I'll give another example here just to make sure you guys understand. So let's say our average view duration was um let's say our
516:20
Speaker A
average view duration was 30 seconds and let's say our length of video was 60 seconds right then we take our attention which is average view duration divided by length of video and then we are going to get 30 divided by 60 equals 0.5
516:40
Speaker A
which is equal to 50%. So this is how retention is actually calculated and in the old YouTube studio like a couple years ago uh this was actually a feature where you can actually just look at it but for some reason YouTube took it out
516:52
Speaker A
even though it's a very important stat still for some reason they actually make you calculated now and on other platforms like on Tik Tok and Instagram they just do it for you but YouTube makes you do math for some reason but um
517:03
Speaker A
yeah this is a very important stat for you guys to understand. All right. So, retention is very important and that's why I explained these two first before I explain the retention. And the last stat that is pretty important is SW, which is
517:15
Speaker A
swipe ratio. Remember, these is for short form content. There's also, of course, like CTR, which is click-through rate. Uh, we'll go into that one a little bit more later, but swipe ratio stands for, you know, the amount of
517:26
Speaker A
people who have actually stayed to watch your video um in a given percentage. So, like if you have 100 views and 80 people who actually stay to watch your video after 3 seconds, then you have an 80% swipe ratio. All right, I'm pretty sure
517:40
Speaker A
you guys pretty understood pretty uh all of that. So, let's go into um the actual stats you need to hit in order to actually increase your trust score, right? So, remember that YouTube is looking for three things, right?
517:56
Speaker A
YouTube wants to one, make money. Two, they want to make sure they keep people on their platform as long as possible.
518:06
Speaker A
People long as possible. And then lastly, they want to make sure that people are satisfied, right? And I'll go into this in a little more detail as well, but first I want to break down these stats. Um, so the
518:21
Speaker A
reason why these stats are the most important is because there is a direct correlation with link to video, average view duration, retention, and swipe ratio and making money. people staying longer and people being satisfied. Okay, so there was actually a study done by
518:35
Speaker A
advertisements that showed that um advertisers were willing to spend more money on 32 second videos, right? I'm sure you guys have heard this before and this is actually recently changed. All right, so this new stat has shown, right? There was a new study that showed
518:54
Speaker A
that advertisers are willing to spend more money on videos that actually convert on the platform and high conversion videos are videos that people could relate with. Right? So this 32 second video, right, this is actually not very important anymore. All right?
519:14
Speaker A
And if you're new to the channel, then you probably don't know what I'm talking about right now. Basically, before 32 videos was basically the meta. If you uploaded 32 secondond videos and you got a like a 33 second average view
519:25
Speaker A
duration, you would go viral. The meta has changed. It does not work this way anymore. All right. So, you can upload, for example, a, you know, 17-second video and if the average view duration was like 19 seconds, you had a good
519:39
Speaker A
swipe ratio and a good comment ratio, you can still get a lot of views and your RPM can still be very high. Now, now that I've given you this information, what average view duration should you be hitting for? And what
519:49
Speaker A
length of video should you be hitting for? Well, there's two different categories for this. There is short videos, which I categorize as anywhere from 12 seconds to 24 seconds. And then there's longer videos anywhere from uh 32 seconds to 1 minute long. Or I'll put
520:08
Speaker A
60 here for simplicity. All right. So these are shorter shorts and these are longer shorts. Okay. Now shorter short form videos need to have above an 100% retention, right? So for example, if you have a 12 second video, you need to have
520:29
Speaker A
like a 14-se secondond average view duration. So if your link to video is 12 seconds, your AVD needs to be 14, right?
520:35
Speaker A
If you have a 24 second video, right, and your link to video is 24 seconds, then your average view duration needs to be 25.
520:44
Speaker A
Okay? Now, if you have a 32 second video, right, 32 second uh length of video, then your average view duration only needs to be 32 seconds long. Does not have to be above 32 seconds anymore. If you have a 60-second video, this is
521:03
Speaker A
where it gets fun, right? If you have a 60-cond video, all right, length of video, your average view duration only needs to be around 42. All right? And by the way, these are not number, these are not numbers that I'm just pulling out of
521:15
Speaker A
my ass here. These are actual numbers that I have calculated over all the channels that I've run. So, I'm going to give you a couple examples of these channels that I've run now, like you know, with like videos, average
521:26
Speaker A
duration, link to videos, um, now and then I'll go back into Swipe Ratio after I explain this part first. So, this channel has generated $116,000 in the past 6 months of us starting this channel. You can see we actually only
521:39
Speaker A
started this channel around 6 months ago, and it's doing pretty good. You know, six figures in six months, I think, is pretty good. But, you know, we're running a lot of channels. Um, you know, we're pulling around this every
521:49
Speaker A
month across all the channels right now, but I want to give you a couple examples on this channel because this has a really good outliers and it's just really good examples. So, this specific short here got 160 million views, you
522:01
Speaker A
know, 159.9 and it generated basically $12,000, right? And the reason we were able to do this is because we had a length of video of 1 minute long and the average view duration was above 42 seconds. And you can see it was 47
522:16
Speaker A
seconds here. And if we scroll down here and we actually look at the retention of the video, it doesn't look that good, right? But because this video had such a high average view duration compared to the length of video, then it got pushed
522:31
Speaker A
out. All right, so uh this is kind of an example of a longer length of video with not 100% retention, but still getting, you know, tens of thousands of dollars in revenue. All right, so this is one example here. Here I'm going to give
522:45
Speaker A
another example of a shorter channel uh that gets you know shorter videos and still generates a lot of income. So this channel in the past 28 days has generated $12,000 and in the past year it has generated $68,000. Now what's
522:58
Speaker A
very special about this channel is the videos that are uploaded here. The length of video is much shorter. You know as you can see here it's like 15 16 12 5 and we still pull a pretty decent amount of views. And we have some
523:12
Speaker A
outliers like 1.6 6 million and this video is only 10 seconds long. So let's look at the analytics of this one right here. Right? So we generated $142 here and we got 1.6 million views and you can see here that the RPM is 34
523:28
Speaker A
cents. Right? 34 cents. Uh which is pretty insane for a very short video. And the reason why is because the average demographic is United States and United Kingdom. And we'll go over how to target demographics um later. But the
523:43
Speaker A
first thing I want to show you here is you can see that the engagement of this video is 15 seconds long. Right? So we have a 10 second of a 15-second video.
523:52
Speaker A
That is an 150% retention, right? Because 15 divided by 10 is 1.5. So that is kind of proof to you guys, you know, to show you that shorter videos need to have a much higher average duration and it can still generate good income
524:07
Speaker A
because it gets good RPM and longer videos don't need as long of an average view duration and it can still get good RPM and generate good money as well. And by the way, just for context, I guess I
524:17
Speaker A
didn't show that in uh earlier. The video that you know generated $12,000, the RPM was 12, right? The reason this RPM looks a little bit lower is because once you start targeting such a wide demographic of audiences as you can see
524:33
Speaker A
here you know the average you know people who are watching was like you know 20% United States and then 14% India because when you start getting hundreds of millions of views it's kind of hard to target just one you know high
524:44
Speaker A
GDP per capita country. So you will start getting countries that don't have as much money and then advertisers aren't willing to spend as much on them.
524:53
Speaker A
But regardless when you get a lot of views you make more money. So, now that you understand retention, average view uteration divided by length of video, now we're going to go over swipe ratio.
525:03
Speaker A
Now, swipe ratio is its own ball game, but there is a really good average of what you should be hitting for for your swipe ratios, cuz I've seen some swipe ratios in the 70s get 50 million views, and I've seen some swipe ratios in like
525:19
Speaker A
the 80s to 90s plus get 100 million views. So, why do some videos perform better than others with swipe ratio?
525:26
Speaker A
Well, I'll explain it now and explain exactly what swipe ratio need to hit in order to increase your trust score. So, first of all, breaking down why swipe ratios are important. It's because people staying on the platform as long
525:38
Speaker A
as possible. Now, you know, remember our three pillars of what YouTube wants. YouTube wants to make money, people staying on the platform as long as possible, and people to be satisfied.
525:47
Speaker A
Now, when you're trying to keep people on the platform as long as possible, the the way you keep them there is actually hook them in first, right? So, this is why swipe ratio is so important. Okay.
525:58
Speaker A
Now, what swipe should ratio should you be hitting? All right. On average, I've seen that anywhere from 77 to 81.1% is the good number to be. Now, of course, higher swipe ratios are going to be better. Right now, if you want to hit
526:16
Speaker A
an exact ballpark every single time of like, okay, I want to get like, you know, millions of views every single time, Devon, then you should be aiming for 80%. This is like the uh around the area that you should be aiming for,
526:31
Speaker A
right? 80%. If you aim for 80% swipe ratios, then you will be in a good spot because people are saying the platform, you know, you're 80 out of 100 people are watching. This is a good spot to be.
526:42
Speaker A
There's not really too much explaining here. just aim for 80%. Now, if you want to know how to aim for 80%, we have a lot of other videos on the channel that explain, you know, how to get good
526:50
Speaker A
hooks, how to do good swipe ratios, but you know, this video is more of just again increasing trust scores. Also, I think it's worth mentioning now because we're pretty deep in this video now. If you guys are getting any value from this
527:01
Speaker A
and you feel like I could help you scale your channel further, I do have a program where if you want to apply to work with me oneonone, you can. It's going to be linked to the first link in
527:09
Speaker A
the description. Of course, you know, I make all these videos for free. All these courses I upload, they're for free because I really want to just give as much information for free. But, you know, if you do want help scaling your
527:18
Speaker A
channel or maybe you have a channel already and you want to scale to multiple channels, go ahead and apply to work with me and, you know, you know, me and my team can reach out and maybe we can work together, you know, and scale
527:27
Speaker A
something up. I mean, a lot of my students, you know, that are, you know, in this program right now, they're pulling tens of thousands of dollars right now. I can just show you this real quick. So, like these are like my
527:37
Speaker A
student wins here, right? And you can see like a lot of my students, you know, they're pulling like hundreds of, you know, millions of views. Like for example, Adam, he had a 10 million 48 hour mark and this is a new channel.
527:47
Speaker A
Like this is this is eight days of starting this channel with them and these are my student wins here. Um, you know, so if you guys do want to work with me, um, you know, we've scaled people like Fat Alts to, you know, tens
527:58
Speaker A
of thousands of dollars. Uh, so you know, if you guys are interested, then go ahead and apply. Anyways, let me go back to just giving you guys a ton of value. Now remember our three pillars of what YouTube wants, right? Making money,
528:11
Speaker A
people staying on their platform as long as possible and then being satisfied, right? So I haven't actually touched on this satisfied point because it actually goes into retention, right? So YouTube measures the emotion of someone being satisfied by two factors. Did they
528:29
Speaker A
comment and did they watch the video all the way through? That is it. Likes do not matter. subscribes or watch you know subscribing to the video does not matter clicking on the sound does not matter the only way YouTube is able to quantify
528:43
Speaker A
an emotion because remember quantifying an emotion emotion is a human feeling right and it's really hard to quantify that through a screen and the way YouTube does it is through emotions and they only do it through two metrics
528:58
Speaker A
right um the retention of the video they watched it and did they comment right these are the only two metrics to quantify be someone being satisfied. And I see a lot of people getting confused by how do I make a viewer satisfied?
529:14
Speaker A
Like I want to make sure they feel good at the end of the video. And remember what I said just now. Again, we're trying to aim for an emotion here, right? So if a viewer feels angry or they feel happy
529:28
Speaker A
or they feel like curious, right? All of these are emotions. And these emotions um help YouTube understand that they are satisfied, right? So being satisfied in YouTube's eyes is not actually, you know, like satisfying satisfying ASMR or like a happy ending. It is are they
529:49
Speaker A
feeling something other than bored? If they're angry, happy, sad, you could rage bait them. You could cut the hook off at the end and not give an ending that makes them angry. Like all of these are satisfied, right? And when they feel
530:01
Speaker A
an emotion, guess what this makes them do, right? It makes them either comment, right, because they're feeling emotions, or it makes them um, you know, watch the video all the way through because they want to feel that emotion again or they
530:15
Speaker A
are reading through the comments because they are in a swarm of emotions. Right? So retention comments emotions satisfied, right? So, that's why I left this out and I'm explaining it now. Now, those are all the three pillars and
530:26
Speaker A
everything you need to know about the stats. you know, the main stats for increasing your trust score. Now, let's go into the nitty-gritty, right? Because I want to explain the stats in detail here. So, let's explain that now.
530:44
Speaker A
Now, this channel generated us $28,000 in 90 days of starting this channel. This is a new channel. This is actually one of my students that I help work with, and we generated uh 653 million views. Okay, so this is a pretty good
530:58
Speaker A
example of the stats you need to hit. So I want to kind of dive deep into it now.
531:04
Speaker A
All right, so if we go to content here first and we actually scroll down, you're going to see our swipe ratio was above the 80%. We actually had an 83.1%.
531:13
Speaker A
Now remember, we were above that golden 81.1 ratio. So this is a really good stat we aiming for. Also, you want to make sure that your, you know, how viewers find your shorts is shorts feed.
531:24
Speaker A
If viewers are finding your shorts from like YouTube search, channel pages, other features or browse, it basically basically means that your your shorts are too niche, right? And if you want to increase your trust score, you want to
531:35
Speaker A
make sure your shorts are as discoverable as possible, which is why I said earlier in this video, don't have tags, don't have descriptions, don't use any type of hashtags because that limits your reach, right? If you want to get
531:47
Speaker A
the most reach, you want to hit this shorts feed here. Okay? Now, also another thing you want to make sure if you go to external, you'll see that WhatsApp is probably going to be the main top contender here or maybe Discord
532:01
Speaker A
if you're uploading to a community. Now, if there is like some like AI bot here, you know, like for example, like Android launcher is also like okay, if you go to see more and you actually scroll down, you'll notice that like for example like
532:16
Speaker A
combennet.zangi Zangi here. These are all bots trying to bot this channel. All right, so these are all like bots here.
532:25
Speaker A
Bing is not a bot obviously, but some of these are. So you want to make sure that this external feature here does not have a lot of bots. If you're getting zero view jail, this could also be a reason
532:35
Speaker A
why you're stuck in zero view jail because your trust score is cooked. Maybe because you're, you know, you botted your channel or someone is attacking you or whatever. Um but yeah, this is the main reason why uh YouTube
532:46
Speaker A
search. This is also good to look at to see, you know, more for a traffic 67 right here. But um this is a good thing to search if this is in your niche. Uh this is a really good sign. If you are
532:58
Speaker A
getting people searching the most random stuff like how to cut hair and you're uploading Roblox videos, then you are in a very bad spot to be. All right. And I'm going to show you actually the next step which is looking at the other
533:11
Speaker A
channels that are you know uploading similar videos to you. And I'll show you that now to uh look at that. Also look at your remixes as well. I mean remixes is also more for bigger channels. But if you have remix views this is also a good
533:23
Speaker A
sign to YouTube that you know you have a bigger channel and a community that's you're actually building. Other than that that's pretty much everything you need for the content side of things. Um if you actually go to audience here this
533:32
Speaker A
is where all the nitty-gritty. This is where you're going to see a lot of the analytics that you want to be looking for. So, the first thing I want you guys to look at is audience watch behavior, right? So, typically I want you guys to
533:44
Speaker A
have a 25% or above new viewer ratio. The higher the better, right? If it's 80% you're in amazing spot, right? But when you're around 25% or under, that is when you got to start waring. Okay? The reason why is because your new viewers is shown
534:00
Speaker A
through your YouTube um homepage. Remember, if we go to content here, you're going to see the shorts feed here. This is where your new viewers actually find you. Now, if you go to audience and you see your new viewers is
534:10
Speaker A
really high, you're in a good spot. Um, if your casual viewers plus your regular viewers is um at a very high spot, right, where you're at like around maybe 25% new viewers and like 75% of the CV and RV, which is casual viewer and
534:25
Speaker A
regular viewer rating, um, collectively added, then you're in a bad spot. All right. Also, if your trust score uh is low, it may be because your regular viewers is too high. If you have a low view count and a high regular viewer
534:38
Speaker A
count, that means YouTube is limiting your reach and only pushing your videos to the same amount of people. In order to fix this, what you have to do is make content so broad that it's going to reach a wide audience or fix the other
534:48
Speaker A
things I've showed in this video. And you'll probably fix that problem by itself by fixing the other things first.
534:53
Speaker A
Okay. Looking at channel uh audiences, your channel watch. So you'll see here that um you know we have the audiences your channel watch here and all of these channels here. If we actually click on all of them here they're actually all
535:07
Speaker A
going to be Roblox channels because the channel I'm showing you right now is a Roblox channel. So for example like catfish blocks here um or if we let this load for a second like easy is all Roblox and all these channels here are
535:19
Speaker A
actually going to be Roblox channels right? So, the main reason I want you guys to look at this is because if you actually end up looking at this audience, uh, channels your audience watches here, and it's not all people in
535:34
Speaker A
your niche, then you're in a bad spot because YouTube doesn't know who to push your audience to. All right? Now, if your channel's new, then this probably will be random. But like if you have a more aged channel and you just have the
535:46
Speaker A
most random like for example like one of my students um they were uploading Roblox ranting videos and they had just random Japanese stuff here and it was like random Fortnite videos and like ASMR stuff and it had nothing to do with
535:57
Speaker A
his stuff and I was like that's a little weird. We should figure out how to fix this. We looked in his tags and he had all these different tags of like hashtag viral, hashtagfunn, hashtag relatable.
536:09
Speaker A
And all these hashtags are basically pushed to the, you know, YouTube trying to figure out who to push it to and YouTube's algorithm messed up because they were trying to push it to viral, funny, and relatable content in a push
536:19
Speaker A
of those random channels. Which is why I don't recommend using hashtags and descriptions because YouTube will be able to find it automatically if you just leave it the way like this, right?
536:27
Speaker A
So, um, make sure the these channels here are actually, uh, you know, coherent with the videos you're uploading and the channel that you're running right now. If we go down a little bit further, you'll see when viewers are online. Now, on average, I'm
536:41
Speaker A
sure you guys will probably see this. It's probably going to be anywhere from 5:00 a.m. to uh it should say here around like 6:00 p.m. Now, the channel on this channel here has been probably a little bit worse, but um if you guys see
536:54
Speaker A
that everything is high purple, that is a really good spot to be. And I'll give you another example of this now. So, this is a good example of a better looking stat. Of course, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, there's
537:06
Speaker A
always going to be less people around this time because people are having school and stuff. You can see how purple a lot of my chart is, right? The higher purple chart you have across everything, the better. Again, if you see what your
537:17
Speaker A
audience watches, these should all be related to, you know, the actual uh channel that you're running. And then if we scroll down a little bit further, you're going to see formats your video your channel watches. This should all
537:30
Speaker A
just be basically uh you know uh the purple. If this says live here, right?
537:35
Speaker A
If this is only live, then you are in a very bad spot because your channel's only watching people who are live. Then you need to basically fix your channel by uploading more shorts. And if you're doing live streams, this actually could
537:46
Speaker A
affect your trust score. If we go down here, your age and gender. All right.
537:51
Speaker A
So, I recommend you aim for a 50/50 here. If you have a really really um you know uh aggressive like you know female or aggressive male percentage, then there may be a problem with your channel. Unless you're Oh, I keep having
538:07
Speaker A
hiccups. Unless you're targeting only to, you know, women or only to men, but you know, typically you want to be aiming for 5050% because that's going to give you the most amount of reach. Now, as for your actual ages, I recommend
538:19
Speaker A
aiming anywhere from 18 to 44 years old. This is the highest RPMs here. The older the better, honestly, but 18 to 44 is like a good spot to be. Now, as for device type, um if you're doing brain
538:31
Speaker A
rot content, you actually should see a huge increase in tablet and TV content, right? So, there's actually a really large amount of people who watch uh shorts through the TV and through the tablet. So, if you're making like Roblox
538:46
Speaker A
uh content, for example, this tablet and TV content should be higher, but on average, these should be pretty skewed with like maybe anywhere from 65 to 75% of the people watching from mobile. Um, for top geographics, you should be
539:00
Speaker A
aiming for United States, of course. And unfortunately, this channel does not have United States, which is why the RPM is pretty low. But this channel still made $28,000.
539:09
Speaker A
And then that is pretty much everything that you need to know for your analytics to make sure you're getting the most amount of um, you know, money and increasing your trust score. Now, if we go to revenue here, um, I recommend
539:22
Speaker A
making sure you're keeping up to date with your shorts RPM. I also want you guys to understand that these engaged views are always going to be like 50% of your average views. I I see a lot of people worrying about it like, "Oh gosh,
539:34
Speaker A
maybe my trust score is bad because, you know, I'm getting a billion views and I'm getting 500 million engaged views." Like, we got like 6 um 80 million views on this channel and, you know, we got like 330 engage views. This is usually
539:49
Speaker A
around 50%. You know, um so yeah, that's what I would be aiming for here. And that is pretty much everything that you guys want to be looking for when you're looking at your analytics. Now, the next part of this video is going to be
539:59
Speaker A
understanding how to actually title descriptions and tags and everything else when you're actually uploading the video and also talking about some features on YouTube that you can use and if it's going to affect your trust score and if you should use it uh or not. So,
540:11
Speaker A
here I'll go into it right now. Um, if we actually go to a channel that you're running. So, if we actually go to this video here, if we go to the details, you'll see where you can actually edit
540:20
Speaker A
everything over, right? So I like using Vid IQ uh for like basic ideas for long form but for short form it does not matter right so you can do anything like mass morph troll lull or whatever it could be whatever you want right if
540:33
Speaker A
you're doing ranking it could be like ranking best moments ranking best dog moments and that's all you need to do um titles don't really matter for YouTube YouTube search doesn't matter you can use don't click the sound with a crying
540:43
Speaker A
emoji you know those work as well um but more importantly do not have descriptions and do not have tags. Right? So, you can see here I don't have any tags or any descriptions or anything like that because it's going to limit our reach.
540:57
Speaker A
Now, should you use related videos? I've seen a lot of people ask like, should I do it? Should I not do it? Um, I like using related videos to push people to my videos. I've seen people like complain saying like, "It drops
541:07
Speaker A
retention." I'm going to be honest. If you're making a good video, your retention will not drop. This does not decrease your trust score. It is a YouTube feature. YouTube will not put a feature intentionally to de decrease your trust score. If you use related
541:18
Speaker A
features, it is perfectly fine. Okay. Now, as for collaborations, I've learned this more recently as experimenting with a lot of different channels that we're running right now. For collaborations, you want to make sure that if you are going to do a collaboration, it's with
541:33
Speaker A
another channel in a similar niche that is already doing well, right? If you have two channels, one channel you just started today and a channel you've been running for a year and you upload a video on the video channel you've been
541:44
Speaker A
uploading for a year and try to collab with the new channel, it'll break down the views for both of them. The views will go down, right? Only do collabs with channels that are doing just as good or a little bit worse. All right
541:56
Speaker A
now, if your channel is already doing decent, like let's say you're at like 30,000 48 hour mark and it's already warm, right? and you do a collaboration, it's in the same niche, then it'll actually propel your channel forward as you some
542:09
Speaker A
of my students like Ian and Tony have done in their um you know experiments in our program as well.
542:20
Speaker A
Is there anything else? Now, as for actually the upload times you need to be, you know, uploading because, you know, uploading every single day is important. Um, and there also is a frequency of what you should be uploading on, right? So, some of my
542:38
Speaker A
channels, we don't upload every single day. And the reason why is because the production quality of those videos are so high, it takes days to make, right?
542:46
Speaker A
And we have like seven people in place to make one single video because there's scripting involved. People need to be in certain places. You know, there's a lot of stuff that goes involved when you're making a 100 million view video, right?
542:57
Speaker A
So, um when you are actually uploading, the upload frequency you should be aiming for is um one video per day when you're starting for the first 3 days.
543:10
Speaker A
Then you should be uploading two videos per day after 3 days for 3 days. And then you can go from anywhere from 3 to five videos per day uh moving forward after that. That's the upload frequency I like. If you're wondering what times
543:23
Speaker A
you should be uploading, I like uploading anywhere from 8 o'lock a.m. EST EST to 6:00 p p.m. EST, right? I and I've had videos uh I've uploaded before um you know, do pretty good, you know, in the 8:00 range, uh 8:00 p.m. EST. So,
543:46
Speaker A
like if you want to do an 8:00 PM upload as well, you can, but I don't really like doing it because I've seen videos perform better before 6 PM. But if you need to upload at 8:00 p.m., all right,
543:56
Speaker A
if that's what you need to do, but 8:00 p.m. 8 a.m. EST to 8:00 p.m. EST, that is the main um schedule I'd be uploading for. Now, as for frequency of how up, how much time you should upload and what
544:08
Speaker A
times, do a 45 minute interval between each upload. So, if you upload a video at 8:00, the next video should be at 8:45 or longer, right? 8:45 minimum. If you want to upload every 3 hours or every two hours, you can do that as
544:22
Speaker A
well. But don't upload a video unless it's 45 minutes after you've uploaded the previous video. All right, so that is for upload frequency. Make sure you do this cuz if you don't do this uh unless you're uploading too frequently
544:33
Speaker A
in the shorter time frame, you could decrease your trust score. If you start uploading too quickly when you make a new channel, you can decrease your trust score. And some of these are permanent, right? If you accidentally screw up with
544:43
Speaker A
this, it's kind of hard to rebuttle. But majority of the problems that I went over in this video, remember, your credit score is something that you can fix, right? When you have a decrease in your credit score, usually you can
544:54
Speaker A
increase it as we talked about earlier. So, you know, your trust score, there's not an exact number, but if you follow everything I talked about in this video and everything like the checklist and everything like that, you will see your
545:06
Speaker A
video go uh your video views go up. All right. Now, now that we've gone over basically everything you can do to increase your trust score, you also need to understand everything you should not do to decrease your trust score. Because
545:19
Speaker A
just as quickly as it can go up, it can go down if you mess something up, right?
545:24
Speaker A
So, here's everything you should not do. The first thing you should not do, I'm just going to say no for this here. No goes. The first thing you should not do is do not miss a day. All right? If you
545:38
Speaker A
do not have a high monthly audience, you will have a decrease in views. All right? And I have noticed this for even my biggest channels. I'm talking 600 million views per month. We miss, you know, a couple days because we're trying
545:51
Speaker A
to upload the quality of videos. Our monthly audience goes down, right? And if you don't know, I'm talking about monthly audience here. I'll show you real quick. Right? So monthly audience is this right here that's calculated.
546:01
Speaker A
You can see here we started missing some days on this channel here. And our monthly audience just kept decreasing.
546:07
Speaker A
Right? A monthly audience before was like 72 million, right? And we were pulling billions of views on this channel. Billions. I'm talking billions of views here. So, because um we had so many missed days, the monthly audience decreased exponentially. As you can see
546:28
Speaker A
here, it's been kind of just going down, right? Because of missed days. That is because the production quality of that channel was so high, right? So if you miss days, you will have a decrease in trust score. So do not miss days. It is
546:43
Speaker A
so important. This is like the number one thing. All right? If you miss days, like you're you uploading every single day is a top priority. Like in my discord, I ping people every single day at everyone. Upload today. In my
546:57
Speaker A
students, I'm pinging them. Yo, upload today, bro. Yo, did you upload today? Oh, he uploaded today. Great. you know, so make sure you guys are uploading every single day. The second thing you need to make sure you don't do is don't
547:09
Speaker A
do long titles. Pretty basic. Just don't do long titles. It just it's really hard to read and then on the um YouTube homepage, you can't read it as well, right? So, pretty basic stuff. Uh we were before, but no
547:23
Speaker A
tags and no descriptions as well. I'm just going to say no tags and descriptions. Don't use tags. Don't use descriptions. Uh, you know, no, don't use, you don't have to use hashtags. You can use hashtags if you want. Um, it helps you target in the
547:39
Speaker A
beginning. I I'm not opposed to it. I've seen some I should be speed channels and I've seen some Roblox channels do good with tags. I personally don't use them, but tags in in the actual YouTube itself, right, in the in the actual
547:52
Speaker A
studio and description is a nogo. Do not do it. Now, link the videos. Do not upload a video that is below 4 seconds long. If it is less than 4 seconds or equal to, you are in a bad spot. Like I
548:08
Speaker A
don't even like uploading 5-second videos. I'm going to be straight. But I've had some 5-second videos hit like, you know, 15 million views. It still didn't make a lot of money. But don't upload a video below 4 seconds long or
548:21
Speaker A
at 4 seconds. If you're going to upload something short, do it at five. What's next?
549:01
Speaker A
Another thing, do not steal people's videos. If you straight up steal someone's content bar forbar without any, you know, reformative anything, it will just plummet your trust to ground.
549:12
Speaker A
You will get zero view jail, right? Cuz stealing content, YouTube has a pixel detection system. All right? If the pixels detected on your video are pretty much identical to another video, you will get straight up shadowbanned. All right? So, do not upload anyone else's
549:27
Speaker A
videos. If you're doing ranking videos, make it, add sound effects, add other effects, switch out the clips. This is why for my ranking students, when I'm asking them to upload videos, do not I tell them like, do not upload the exact
549:41
Speaker A
same clips in the exact same order. Like, you got to upload different orders because the pixel detection is insane, right? So, like do not steal people's content. Also, if you have a video flop, um there's probably a good reason why,
549:55
Speaker A
right? Um and usually the reason why a video flops, there's two reasons. Either you did these previous things here, right? Or uh you uploaded sexual content. Do not upload sexual content.
550:08
Speaker A
All right? YouTube is a children platform, right? I see a lot of people trying to be cheap and upload this like sexual content. It's not good for YouTube. Don't do it. Right. One, it's immoral. All right. Two, it just YouTube
550:23
Speaker A
doesn't like it. They're not going to push it for kids. It's not good for advertisers. Okay. Also, uploading videos like gambling stuff as well. Um, it does okay if you do it correctly, but like straight up casino gameplay also
550:35
Speaker A
doesn't do well. It'll also decrease your trust trust score, but like if you have any type of flops, it's probably because you're uploading like sexual content. Don't do that. All right. Um, like even like saying words like bikini
550:46
Speaker A
or anything like that, that'll decrease the trust score of your video. I'm probably decreasing the trust score of this video as I'm saying them right now.
550:52
Speaker A
It's kind of funny. These apply to long form as well, by the way, but this is like mainly short form. Okay.
551:04
Speaker A
What else? Also, uploading too frequently. I remember I told you about the 45minut intervals. If you upload like five videos within one minute, uh it'll be seen as spam. So, don't upload videos too quickly cuz you'll be marked as
551:25
Speaker A
spam. Um, also don't like spam if you are going to do descriptions, you don't want to listen to me. Uh, don't spam your descriptions either. Um, another thing is like in your actual YouTube bio, make sure you're not using
551:35
Speaker A
hashtags. Um, and then yeah, th those are the main things that you shouldn't be doing, right? Those are the no- goes to make sure you don't accidentally screw up your channel. Also, I want to talk about some misconceptions because
551:46
Speaker A
there is some misconceptions about, you know, increasing or decreasing your trust score that I want to go over real quick and then we can basically wrap up this entire trust score course and you guys pretty much have everything you
551:56
Speaker A
need to know, right? So, for some misconceptions, right, uh I'm just going to say miscon. So, misconceptions um is pretty important again like the age Gmail we talked about in the very beginning like you do not need an age
552:09
Speaker A
YouTube channel to increase your trust score. Age YouTube channel is a is a is a myth. You don't need a YouTube channel. I've had videos I made or channels I made on like the same day and then I uploaded a video and it got like
552:21
Speaker A
146 million views or was it 100 160 million views? Something like that. It it was an insane first video. Uh so like you do not need an age YouTube channel at all. Age Gmail is what you need.
552:33
Speaker A
Remember that. Another misconception is you need people to like and subscribe. You do not need people to like and subscribe. High like and subscribe ratios are vanity metrics. Likes and subscribes do not matter. Liking the video, subscribing to the channel, it
552:48
Speaker A
does not matter. Like I could even ask you like, "Hey, you watch an hour of this video. You should subscribe probably because I give a lot of free value like this or you should like this video." But I'm going to be honest, it
552:58
Speaker A
does nothing for my channel. It's not going to push out this video more. You know what I mean? Uh and the reason why is because um it just it's a vanity metric. It doesn't matter. Now, I will tell you what is a actual metric is
553:09
Speaker A
comments. Comments is like the most powerful CTA you can use. And I've explained this in other videos, but like if you're going to do CTA, do a comments because comments create other comments and it's a snowball effect. And also
553:21
Speaker A
comments keep your retention to your video because if people are scrolling and watching the comments, your watch time increases, which gets more people on the platform. Remember again our three pillars of YouTube. It's money, people staying on the platform as long
553:34
Speaker A
as possible, and satisfied. satisfied is through retention and comments. Um people being satisfied, you can keep people satisfied through, you know, more emotions through comments as well.
554:20
Speaker A
That's everything. Another misconception is you need to have like a United States Gmail or you need to be in the United States or a high GDP per capita country to be able to, you know, increase your trust score.
554:38
Speaker A
You can do this anywhere in the world. I have students from Jamaica, from Croatia, from Switzerland. Um, you know, I have people from Denmark, people from India, you know, and these guys are pulling tens of thousands of dollars
554:50
Speaker A
every single month, you know. So, you don't need to be in a specific country to be able to increase your trust score.
554:56
Speaker A
Country or location does not matter at all. Also, another thing, you can upload on your computer and your phone and it does not matter, right? You can upload from different IPs on different devices and it does not matter. All right. I
555:10
Speaker A
have uh 36 channels and I have six managers who upload from like Ethiopia and India. Those are where my managers are located and like my editors who have access to my channels upload them there too. Never affected a video once. So
555:25
Speaker A
location doesn't matter. The device you're uploading on doesn't matter. None of it matters. Now the quality of the video you're uploading matters. Make sure it's a 1080p video, right? Don't upload lower quality videos. Lower quality videos. I forgot I should
555:38
Speaker A
probably mention this here in the no- goes. Lower quality videos will actually uh decrease your trust score as well.
555:42
Speaker A
Like the actual like uh pixels on the video. And the last misconception I want to talk about is what doing one of these is not going to immediately increase your trust score. You have to do all of them.
556:08
Speaker A
So this channel got $117,000 in AdSense revenue over the past 6 to 7 months. Do quick reload for you. And in this video, I'm going to explain exactly how you can do this and how you can scale up your own channel. And at the
556:21
Speaker A
end of the video, I'm going to explain some mistakes that I made so you can avoid getting demonetized, which actually happens to this channel as well. In this video, I'm going to be going over all of it. So, let's get
556:31
Speaker A
straight into it. First things first, I want to go over the actual content itself. So, the content of this channel was a very, very, very wide scope. What I mean by that is it was basically a channel that I could pretty much view
556:45
Speaker A
Max no matter what I was uploading. The niche of this channel was um a ranking niche. Now, I'm not actually going to show the channel because it is still getting views and I don't want the actual channel to get either targeted or
556:59
Speaker A
leaked. Um but I will talk about the niche and the videos itself. So, for context, um ranking is one of the best niches in YouTube. Right? Ranking is a really really good niche because one it is really easy to get started and two
557:13
Speaker A
YouTube pushes the algorithm so hard for ranking videos. Now the reason why these videos did get pushed so hard in the first place is because ranking is something that can be pushed in incognito tab. So if I actually just go
557:30
Speaker A
to an incognito tab, we go to YouTube and let's actually just go to the shorts feed and scroll for a second. And I bet you very very quickly we are going to get pushed um a ranking video. Let's
557:43
Speaker A
just Yep. There we go. Five videos in you get pushed a ranking video. The reason why this happens even though we're an incognito tab is because YouTube understands that ranking is one of the most profitable and one of the
557:55
Speaker A
most um easy niches to ease someone into content because it's very very well understood. And what's also good about it is it is also being able to be shown to any language. You could speak Chinese, you could speak Indian, you
558:11
Speaker A
could speak American or English, whatever. You could speak anything and you can watch these ranking videos. I have seen ranking videos literally in Japanese getting hundreds of millions of views with people speaking the language in all the comments of all different
558:25
Speaker A
types of languages. And let me show you the best part about these type of channels. All right, these type of channels, you don't even need the most amazing stats to get pushed to the algorithm. For example, this video has a
558:35
Speaker A
47 second of 1 minute and 1 second average or length of video, 47 second average view duration, and an swipe ratio of only 80.3%. Now, typically I aim for 81.1% swipe ratios, but this video got 160 million views and
558:52
Speaker A
generated nearly $12,000. And this video was uploaded almost a year ago and is still getting views to this day. All right, so that's why ranking is so amazing. And I have a lot of channels in the ranking niche. A lot
559:06
Speaker A
of my students that end up joining our program, I get them in the ranking niche and I help them scale up because I'm just so good at scaling up ranking channels. And then I use that system of cash flow to start other more complex
559:17
Speaker A
channels, adding more informative content. But I do want to talk about the metrics you need to hit and how to actually hit them and why ranking is a good niche for you to start or maybe if you already have multiple channels to
559:30
Speaker A
start a new channel in ranking. Um because there's a big misconception that you can get banned in ranking which is true but there's ways to avoid it which I actually had to learn through trial and error and um yeah so let's get into
559:41
Speaker A
that now. So when you actually make these ranking videos the first thing you're going to learn is actually sourcing clips. Now it's very easy to source clips. So, I'm actually making an AI tool that can help you source clips,
559:51
Speaker A
but it's not currently released yet. But sourcing clips is a really, really good skill to have because it helps you identify what content is good and what content is bad. The other thing that sourcing allows you to do is it allows
560:03
Speaker A
you to use content that is not yours and still profit and make money from it, right? So, that that's one of the main awesome reasons why ranking is good because you can pretty much make money from content that is technically not
560:15
Speaker A
yours, right? But what ranking does teach you is pacing. So pacing is a very very very important skill to learn because if you don't pace, guess what's going to happen? Your retention graph is probably going to look something like
560:28
Speaker A
this, right? Where you just have a huge dip, lots of bumps, pretty it looks pretty pretty um wiggly, right? And you want to have a straight retention graph.
560:38
Speaker A
Um so it looks straight, right? Basically, if you're going to be making any type of videos, aim for a straight retention graph. So if you look at these retention graphs here, you can see that it actually is wiggly in the beginning,
560:48
Speaker A
but if you notice this wiggly retention graph actually is at 120%. It actually, this video performed so well, people rewatch this portion of the video twice.
560:59
Speaker A
And you can see we end around 50%, but keep in mind this is a 1 minute and 1 second video, right? That actually gets into the stats you need to be hitting for ranking videos. Ranking is a very
561:11
Speaker A
important niche because when you actually look at some other videos we have here, for example, this one, um you'll notice that the swipe ratios aren't always going to be consistent, right? Like this video had a 79.4% swipe ratio, 48 second average view duration,
561:25
Speaker A
generated nearly five grand. Actually, a little over five grand. So, it's very very easy to get pushed to the ranking niche because YouTube understands that pretty much anyone can watch it. Also, the reason why there are such low swipe
561:39
Speaker A
ratios is because there's so many views that goes around. There's nearly two billion views per day that goes to ranking channels. I'm sure you've seen RankZilla. I'm sure you've seen Polar Ranks. I'm sure you've seen a lot of
561:49
Speaker A
other channels that I personally run or I work with that have also got pushed in the ranking niche. It's a very, very, very fire niche to get into, guys. I've said it a lot, but I'm serious. Like, it's it's an amazing niche. I don't
561:59
Speaker A
usually talk about niches like this in this much detail, but it's awesome, right? So, you need to be aiming for good retention, but the actual videos itself don't need to be 100% retention.
562:08
Speaker A
And swipe ratios need to be eh. All right? It needs to be okay. Now, a big mistake that a lot of people encounter when they're doing ranking is they don't set up their formatting correctly. So, I'm going to show you guys an example of
562:22
Speaker A
formatting that needs to be correct for your actual ranking videos. Check this out. This is a prime example of how you should have your video set up, not just for ranking, but just for videos in general. All right, if you look at this
562:36
Speaker A
here, this is the aspect ratio you need to have for your YouTube videos. All right, you need to make sure your content fits within this bubble. If you're going to add captions is in this bubble over here. If it's not, it will
562:47
Speaker A
get cut out on some devices. I see so many creators encountering this problem. So, for example, let me let me kind of show you guys what I mean right here.
562:55
Speaker A
All right. Um, if you actually look at my phone, right, my iPhone here, you'll see that there's this little black uh camera right here. All right, this black camera gets cut off for a lot of videos.
563:10
Speaker A
So, make sure when you're making these videos, it's below that black camera. Samsung, Apple, um, you even these Windows phones, if you use Windows phones, even when you're on your TV, things get cut out because they're all different aspect ratios. So, if you want
563:26
Speaker A
to fix that, follow this setup, right? You should be 240 pixels down, 60 pixels across, and um you can pretty much take a screenshot of this and look at the rest of this if you want. Uh it's very,
563:36
Speaker A
very um helpful information. I think this is a really good diagram to help you guys kind of understand how you should be setting up your videos. All right. Now getting into this a little bit further. When you actually are
563:48
Speaker A
adding videos to your ranking video itself, a lot of people also mess up by trying to do too much. A lot of my students that I work with, the most common problem they have is they're overediting their videos. Too much too
564:02
Speaker A
much sound effects. They're trying to do too much because they have this idea of they have to make it reformative. And guys, simple sometimes is better. This does not mean you don't edit the video.
564:11
Speaker A
It just means that if you're going to add sound effects, maybe just one sound effect like a vine booma sound effect is fine every single time something funny happens, right? So, this is kind of what we do for our videos. Another thing uh
564:21
Speaker A
as well that I kind of want to note is when you are doing these ranking videos and you are doing, you know, effects, make sure to add captions. Captions are really important. Make sure everything is readable. All right? It's very simple
564:32
Speaker A
things that make a big difference. A lot dude, two of my students are up 30 grand this month and one of them are up 15 grand this month in the ranking niche.
564:40
Speaker A
Like I I' I've already uh done a couple interviews with them and you can kind of look at the interviews, but like they are crushing, right? They're hitting like thousand days with some of their ranking channels. So, I know ranking is
564:52
Speaker A
an amazing niche to get into. I I truly do recommend it. I think a lot of people in this YouTube space don't take ranking seriously. And I know that if you guys actually did, you could potentially hit amazing numbers like this where you hit
565:05
Speaker A
12K in a day here or in in one video. And I'll roll this again just just for you guys u to look at this. How to analyze your attention graphs to maximize the amount of views, break out of view jail, and just get the most
565:17
Speaker A
amount of views you can possibly ever hope to achieve in your life. So let's get into it. So right here we have a very very nice looking retention graph.
565:26
Speaker A
If you look at it, it is extremely straight and you can see it starts out at a 178%. What this basically means, it is basically means that people on YouTube watch this video multiple times, almost two times the amount. If your
565:41
Speaker A
retention graph is starting at 200%, that means that YouTube people on YouTube are watching it more often. So, let's look at this retention graph real quick. You're going to notice that this kind of, you know, flats off and it kind
565:52
Speaker A
of flats off at around 114ish% and we're going to end at a round 84%.
565:58
Speaker A
Now, what does this mean? This means that at around a 31 second video, that's how long this video is, there was an average uration of 31 seconds and a average stayed ratio of around 89 or 86 seconds. You know, this basically means
566:12
Speaker A
that it's a really good video. Also, if we go to engagement and actually check out um the uh swipe ratio over here, we're at 86.1%.
566:22
Speaker A
And that's the reason why this video is just popping off like crazy right now. I mean, uh it's gotten 6.4 4 million views in the past day of uploading. Uh, you know, which is I think that's okay, I
566:34
Speaker A
guess. But, you know, an 86% wipe ratio is actually higher than usual. Usually, my swipe ratio is around 85% and this one got 86%. So, that's pretty awesome.
566:45
Speaker A
Now, I'm going to give you a worse example of this to kind of show you, you know, the comparisons of what is good compared to what is bad. So, this video got 2,000 views. And, you know, it's obviously a lot less than 6 million
566:57
Speaker A
views. It got a swipe ratio of 57% and an average view duration of 36 or 36 seconds. Right? To put that in perspective, this is a minute and 30 second video. So, it got around eh around a 50% average view duration. All
567:10
Speaker A
right? Or retention percentage retention, which is going to be right over here. Um, you're going to see, well, it was 31 seconds over here for average view duration. Now, you may think like, oh, well, that's only a 5-second increase. Well, this one
567:21
Speaker A
actually got a 5-second more increase, Devon. How come this video is not doing well? because the swipe ratio on this video is actually worse. Because if you have a low swipe ratio and a high average view duration, the swipe ratio
567:32
Speaker A
indicates that YouTube is saying, "Hey, people aren't interested in this video. Even though they're watching longer, they're not interested in it." So that means, what does that mean? It means people aren't going to care to actually watch it. And why would YouTube push a
567:43
Speaker A
video that people don't care to watch? We can also see this further by indicating on the retention graph over here. This starts at 100 17% which is around where this video started flatlining which basically means that over here it means that you know the
567:58
Speaker A
video is performing better. All right. Uh or on the other one the video is performing better and this one video is performing worse. You can see there's lots of more confluences and inconsistencies with this video or with this retention graph. You can see
568:09
Speaker A
there's a dip here, a dip here, a dip here, a very big dip over here. You go from 33% to 19%. That's nearly a three, four, 14% dip, which is incredibly bad.
568:22
Speaker A
If you're looking at it in in the terms of millions, if a 100 million view video gets a 14% dip, you're losing 14% 14 million people. Why would YouTube push a video that it's going to lose 14 million
568:33
Speaker A
potential viewers, you know, potentially leaving the platform and going somewhere else? So, when you're making content, you need to make sure that you're making content, thinking about the two main things, swipe ratio and average view duration, which is basically the
568:47
Speaker A
retention of a video. Right? So, now let's go to our notes. I hope you guys have been taking notes in the past uh 12 days of this boot camp because it's very important you guys are actually learning what you're doing and not just listening
568:58
Speaker A
and then and then jerking off with information. Make sure you guys are actually taking notes and taking accountability. I mean, I have a notebook like this over here. I am constantly just, you know, writing as much information as I can down. I don't
569:10
Speaker A
know if you guys can see it, but like I'm just writing constant information down all the time. Anyways, swipe ratio is SW plus a uh your AVD, which is average view duration, is going to equal a one:1 ratio. So, you have a 1:1 ratio
569:27
Speaker A
here, which is going to equal how likely you are to go viral. So let's just, you know, say your virality score is 0 out of 100, but zero is actually going to be X in this scenario. So this is kind of
569:38
Speaker A
the equation I use over here to uh figure out if my video is going to go viral or not, right? So for example, if my swipe ratio is uh 100%, which is impossible by the way, it's impossible to get 100% swipe ratio. And if you do,
569:52
Speaker A
you are some godle YouTuber. All right. Let's say you get 100% swipe ratio and you get a you know a 200% AVD then you're basically guaranteed like you know uh you know 8 billion views. So that's kind of the the swipe ratio
570:08
Speaker A
percentage that I use to calculate my views and stuff. So let's put a real world example here. So over here we had a 57% uh swipe ratio and then we had an average view duration of 36 seconds. But
570:23
Speaker A
remember this 36 seconds is out of a 1 minute and uh 3 second video which is you know really just a 63 second video.
570:32
Speaker A
And if we just do the math here we have a uh 36 divided by 63 um 36 divided by 63 and that's going to give me a 57% 57% plus 57% well what do you know? Wow.
570:50
Speaker A
It's even. Huh. It's a little weird. It's almost like I said, it's a 1:1 ratio here. And since it's a 1:1 ratio, your X out of 100 factor is going to be bad. It's basically a sad emoji because,
571:02
Speaker A
you know, when you once you see both of these are low percentages, that basically indicates that it's going to be bad. So, what should you be aiming for for swipe ratios and average view duration? All right. So, swipe ratio,
571:13
Speaker A
you should be aiming for around Let's do a swipe ratio. Um, swipe ratio you should be aiming for around a 85% swipe ratio. That's pretty much guaranteed like at least a million views as long as your attention or AVD is around
571:30
Speaker A
um a 80% plus depending on how long the video is. Now, let's talk about this because AVDs are important, guys. I'm sorry if I'm moving through this video quickly.
571:40
Speaker A
We've kind of gone through the first 12 or 11 episodes of this boot camp going over the basic stuff and I want to go over more the of the advanced stuff because getting 100 or getting 400 million views a month on one channel it
571:50
Speaker A
does not take basic information and I'm sure if you guys want to get 400 million views on a channel as well then you also don't want basic information. Um anyways so for AVD it kind of depends. All right
572:02
Speaker A
so let's say I have a 20 second video. Let's say you have only a 20 second video and your average view duration is around 200%. Well, that basically means that your actual average view duration of the 20 second video is going to be 40
572:15
Speaker A
seconds. All right, that indicates to YouTube that hey, this video is doing well. Now, let's have another example.
572:21
Speaker A
Let's say we have a one minute video. Actually, no, for simplicity, let's say we have a 40 secondond video. All right, 40 second. And the 40 secondond video gets a 100% retention. Um, this basically indicates that YouTube is
572:33
Speaker A
saying that, hey, this is a 40 secondond video and since it's getting 40 seconds, YouTube's going to push this out. So, your attention to average view duration ratio is important. If your average view duration is lower, but your retention of
572:45
Speaker A
your video is higher, retention of your video is higher, this indicates to YouTube that, hey, this is a good video.
572:53
Speaker A
Smiley face. If your average view duration is lower or sorry, if your average view duration is higher and your retention is lower, let's just do here retention is lower, then that's going to indicate to YouTube that hey, even though your retention is
573:09
Speaker A
lower, but your average view duration is higher, it's going to indicate to YouTube, hey, smiley face, this is a good video. All right, now let's give a bad example. I really want to drill this home. It's really important, guys. I am
573:19
Speaker A
doing this off of zero sleep, and I'm still spitting this this crazy sauce right now. Let's say your average view duration is low. Let's say it's like 20 seconds. And also your retention I'm going to put R for retention because I
573:33
Speaker A
I'm going to write it again. So your R is only 80%. That's indicating to YouTube that you are getting a 16 second average view duration, which is going to tell YouTube that this is a bad video. Because why would YouTube
573:50
Speaker A
push out a video that's only getting 16 seconds average view duration unless the interactions of the video, the comments were really, really big and the um actual likes and stuff and shares was all good as well. I'm going to give a good
574:06
Speaker A
example of that right now. Actually, before we go to the next example, I'm going to give a good example of that.
574:11
Speaker A
So, this is probably one of the best examples I could give. This video got 10 million views and this is on a second channel that I've run.
574:18
Speaker A
I have 35 channels. This is on another channel that I've run. And this channel, what we did with my friend and I is we did engagement baiting content with high average view duration videos. So this video got a average swipe ratio of 67%.
574:35
Speaker A
That is ass. That is so bad. A 67% swipe ratio is awful. But you may be wondering, well Devin, why did this video get 10 million views? Huh? Let me tell you, boy. So, this video got 10 million views because the average view
574:54
Speaker A
duration of the video was 59 seconds long. But wait, there's also more. I'm going to have to blur out all of this stuff because I don't want to show you guys actually, you know, the channel itself. But this channel got 15,000
575:08
Speaker A
comments of 10 million views. That is an insane ratio. That's 1.5%. Wait, that's 0.15%.
575:22
Speaker A
Which is still insanely high because YouTube people don't comment. So when you get 15,000 comments with a a a ratio of 257,000 likes, YouTube is going to push this video out. And that's why this video got 10 million views because thea
575:37
Speaker A
engagement was so high. So remember that engagement doesn't or remember that even though you have a low average view duration or even though you have a high average view duration and a low retention that doesn't always mean that
575:51
Speaker A
you know your your video isn't going to get pushed out because if your if your video is actually getting good engagement right engagement that says engagement by the way then you know you're getting like your trust score of your video is increasing. And
576:09
Speaker A
if your trust score is increasing, that basically is indicating to YouTube that, hey, this is a smiley face, good video.
576:16
Speaker A
Now, I hope this video was kind of useful. Uh, I hope it was helpful. I know we kind of went over a lot of stuff very quickly and I I went over it very quick and it didn't make a lot of sense,
576:25
Speaker A
maybe. So, if it didn't make a lot of sense, comment and if it didn't make sense, just tell me, "Hey, Devon, this didn't make sense, can you please make a part two on analyzing retention graphs and understanding how to get viral
576:35
Speaker A
videos because it didn't make sense to me." And I will make a video on how to go viral videos and how to do this stuff again. I'll make a part two because this is day 12 of the boot camp and we're
576:44
Speaker A
we're going to keep going for this boot camp until I basically have nothing left. This is a YouTube section. We're also going to go over Instagram later in this boot camp, but we're doing going over YouTube right now. Um, that's
576:53
Speaker A
pretty much everything for this video, guys. If you learn anything from it and you want to work with me oneonone, check out the first link in the description.
576:58
Speaker A
It's going to say like devon.cnat.com/apply and you're going to be able to apply to work with me one-on-one. I am only taking probably two more students um for this boot camp. I'm really kind of stacked on students right now. So, if
577:09
Speaker A
you guys are someone who is looking to scale up their YouTube further, come apply and just, you know, maybe I'll work with you and we'll be able to see if we can get something going. And then also, I have kind of revamped my Discord
577:21
Speaker A
server. So, um this channel isn't just about YouTube views. It's about getting views in general because views is the secret to making money online. If you guys really want the true sauce to making money online, it is getting
577:34
Speaker A
views. Because if you can get views, you can basically sell any product. You can generate revenue through, you know, uh, music deals. You can generate revenue through Tik Tok, generate revenue through, you know, YouTube revenue. You can literally get paid through brand
577:47
Speaker A
deals. There's all types of ways to make money online. It all comes from views.
577:51
Speaker A
Views is literally the the the roots. It's the roots of making money. And that's what this channel is about. It's not about just getting views on YouTube.
577:58
Speaker A
It's about view maximizing. This one metric can help you in five or even 10x the amount of views you're getting every month and help you make sustainable income on YouTube. Now, this metric I've not seen anyone else talk about because
578:10
Speaker A
I don't think people just know what it is. So, I'm going to explain it in this video. If you don't know who I am, my name is Devon Cath. I'm a view maximizer. I got 1.5 billion views this
578:18
Speaker A
month and I've generated over 25 billion views over the course of my content creation career. I make lots of money from just doing YouTube automation and also I just market for a lot of big brands. I would say I'm pretty good at
578:28
Speaker A
making videos and getting a lot of views. This is day 22 of the view maximizing boot camp. If you haven't looked at the boot camp so far, recommend going to the channel and looking at the rest of it. Anyways,
578:37
Speaker A
let's get into it. So, if you go to your YouTube analytics and then you actually click on audience and then you just scroll down to the very bottom over here, you're going to see this audience watch behavior graph. Now, this audience
578:49
Speaker A
watch behavior graph is very important because it tells you your new viewer percentage, your casual viewer percentage, and your regular viewer percentage. Now, these three metrics are very important for you to understand if you want to be able to maximize the
579:00
Speaker A
amount of views you're getting on a consistent monthly basis to make you sustainable income. Because I'm assuming if you're watching this, you're either just starting YouTube and you want to make money. You are about to get monetized and you want to make money or
579:13
Speaker A
you're already monetized and you are making money. Doesn't really matter because you're doing this for one reason. Moola, you want money, right?
579:19
Speaker A
So, if we want to do this for a sustainable long period of time, you're going to need to actually know what to do. So, if we go to my myro board real quick, I'm going to jump into this and
579:29
Speaker A
give you guys a better example of how you can utilize this analytic to help you make a lot of money. So, there are three types of viewers on YouTube. There are new viewers, there are casual viewers. I'm just going to say Cass. And
579:41
Speaker A
then there are regular viewers. I'm just going to say reg because I do not like writing all that. Now, these three type of viewers are categorized in different metadatas. So, a new viewer is someone who has never watched your channel
579:51
Speaker A
before and they are completely new to your channel. A casual viewer is someone who's watched a couple of your videos, but they're not actively watching. A regular viewer, someone who has subscribed and they watch regularly almost every one of your videos. Now, if
580:04
Speaker A
you look at your analytics, I'm sure it's probably skewed like this. Maybe 90% of you guys have a new viewer rating. Maybe 5% of you have a casual viewer rating. And I'm sure this is probably less than 1%. Right? So when
580:19
Speaker A
you see something like this, the first thing I think is, okay, if we want to get sustainable long-term viewers, we want to make sure our casual view rating is around 50%. Because this basically indicates that YouTube is going to push
580:31
Speaker A
out our views to more amount of people and we're also still getting a sustainable viewer base. Now, let me give another example of this, right?
580:39
Speaker A
Let's say you have a regular viewer rating of around 45%. Let's say you have a casual view rating of 50%. And let's say you have a regular viewer rating of uh 5%. I may have said that wrong, but
580:50
Speaker A
you guys get the idea. Just look at the percentages and match them up with the words. If you have something that's similar to this, where your new is 45, your casual is 50, and your regular is five, you're in a very good spot because
581:01
Speaker A
you're getting sustainable monthly views and that's sustainable income. This number is basically indicating that YouTube is going to give you 50% of the income of the views you're getting every single month. So, if you go over here and we actually scroll up, we're getting
581:15
Speaker A
7.7 million monthly views. And this is basically 7.7 monthly casual viewers. Now, 7.7 million is not a lot. It's only a couple hundred bucks, but this channel is kind of an anomaly, but I kind of wanted to just show it as an example,
581:28
Speaker A
right? So, this is basically saying that we're going to get 7.7 million active views every month, which is going to be like an active $300 every single month.
581:35
Speaker A
So, you have $300 of passive income. Now, the higher you get this number and the higher you have your casual viewer rating, then the more money you're going to make. And I'm going to give you another example of this. Now, now this
581:45
Speaker A
channel is getting a 73.2 million monthly view audience visitation, which basically means you're guaranteed 73.2 million views every single month. So, if we took 73.2 2 million views. That's going to be roughly around 10K every month guaranteed in the bank. And this
582:03
Speaker A
is also these are usually active viewers. It's not just, you know, views in general. It's going to be like active views that actually count toward the monetization stats. That's going to be very important for you to actually guarantee sustainable monthly income.
582:16
Speaker A
Now, how do you actually increase this casual viewer number? Because it's very important to actually increase. I mean, for this channel right here, it is a 58.6% 6%. And that's pretty awesome because that means we have 58.6%. But
582:30
Speaker A
the thing is that's a little too high because if we have that, that means we're not getting new viewers in. But honestly, this channel is getting close to 400 million views a month right now.
582:38
Speaker A
So we're kind of skewed to, you know, a lot of the world's population. So how do we increase our casual viewer rating?
582:44
Speaker A
One word, consistency. We need to upload good, high quality content and view maximize the heck out of it to get millions of people. Preferably, you want to be getting anywhere from 10 to 50 million views or yeah, million views per
582:56
Speaker A
video. That may sound like a lot, and it is, but if you actually want to get big in this YouTube game, you need to be able to actually hit these type of numbers consistently. When you do that, YouTube's going to trust you and
583:06
Speaker A
increase your trust score, which we've gone over in other videos. Your trust score is basically determining how likely YouTube is to push your video out to more people. Once your trust score has increased, then YouTube will push your video out to more people and then
583:17
Speaker A
you will have a consistent money income every single month. That's kind of the basis of it. That's how I kind of optimize each channel to make me because I'm running close to 37 channels right now. Every single month. I mean, I'm
583:29
Speaker A
going to have to blur this out, but if I just show you guys this over here, I am running a buttload of channels right now. And the reason why I'm running a buttload of channels is because I have
583:39
Speaker A
sustainable income where I can just keep running more automation channels over and over and over again. And in order for me to run these automation channels, I need to make sure everything is systemized correctly. I mean, this casual viewer stat is one of 30
583:51
Speaker A
different analytics I look at when I'm actually trying to optimize my channel. Cuz I could go into every analytic, but that would take so long. And you could look at the rest of the boot camp to look at it or you could even apply to
584:00
Speaker A
work with me oneonone. First link in the description. Now, how much money can you make every month from actually using the strat? Well, to be honest, it's kind of infinite. I mean, right now, I'm making close to 60K in just ad revenue every
584:12
Speaker A
single month from YouTube alone. Right now, this is on a monthly basis, and this is the consistent revenue because I've maximized my casual viewer stat.
584:20
Speaker A
Now, if you're wondering why I haven't talked about this earlier in the boot camp, is because now that we've gone over most of the basic stuff, I want to go into more advanced things. for example, like this because most people
584:28
Speaker A
who are in this part of the boot camp right now, they're watching this and they've probably watched everything else. So, now we're getting into the more advanced stuff because this boot camp I have still not shared so much
584:36
Speaker A
information that I want to share, but you guys wouldn't be able to understand it unless I would actually break down every single metric. We've gone over swipe ratio, we've gone over retention.
584:43
Speaker A
So, now we're going over casual viewers, new viewers, and regular viewers. So, I guess a couple of you guys are wondering well okay Devin I understand you need to get a lot of views, but how do I actually get this uh
584:54
Speaker A
10 to 50 million view month to increase my trust score and make consistent revenue? Well, you need to actually optimize every other metric of your trust score, which I've said in other previous videos. But guys, the trust score is a very, very hard metric to
585:07
Speaker A
measure. There's no YouTube stat you can see to do this. YouTube has over 30 different YouTube metrics. And also, you need to make sure your Gmail is set up correctly, your actual channel is set up correctly, and you don't have any other
585:17
Speaker A
existing channels that are connected that are actually decreasing your trust score. There's so much metrics to get into it. I mean, it's kind of hard for me to make a video on just understanding the trust score alone because this trust
585:28
Speaker A
score right here is determined off so much different factors and each different channel is different. Which is why I recommend you get someone to actually help you understand this trust score. there's only a small amount of people in the space that could actually
585:40
Speaker A
help you understand this because if you want you could do trial and error over the next, you know, six or seven years to um be able to actually understand this trust score or you can find someone who can teach you this for you. That's
585:52
Speaker A
kind of what my mentorship consists of. If you want to apply to work with me oneon-one, you can and I can help you get started and help you scale up your channel. Doesn't matter matter if you're at maybe 0 to 10,000 views a month or
586:02
Speaker A
you're getting 50 million views a month. I can help you scale. I'm getting so many views per month. I mean, if I just show you this channel right here, I mean, this channel alone, we're at 4, you know, 48 million views a month on
586:12
Speaker A
this channel. And this is one of many channels that we're running right now. Here's another channel I'm running that's at almost 100 million views a month right now. Let me just reload it for you guys real quick.
586:25
Speaker A
And here's another channel that's at 96.3 million views a month right now. I mean, I could keep showing you guys examples of this, but the point is once you implement my strategies, like, see, these are some of my students that I've
586:35
Speaker A
worked with, and they are getting hundreds of millions of views within the first couple weeks of working with me.
586:40
Speaker A
Because the way I approach YouTube and the way I approach actually analyzing these channels and scaling them up is different from every other type of, you know, mentor or guru in the space because most of these guys, they aren't
586:53
Speaker A
actually getting results and have anything to show for it. Like, these are the past 28 days, by the way. These aren't like review like channels from like months ago. Like I'm showing you analytics that has happened like in the
587:03
Speaker A
past 28 days. These are real channels which is why I think I kind of have some you know authority over these guys who are for example I've seen some gurus saying like oh don't make multiple channels underneath the same Gmail
587:15
Speaker A
because if you do that if one channel gets banned and it'll ruin it or don't upload multiple times a day or make sure you have an aged YouTube account. Like all of these things that people are saying they're just fake. It's not true.
587:25
Speaker A
like you you don't need an aged YouTube account. You can upload multiple times a day. You really if your one account gets banned on a Gmail, your Gmail is fine and you can still upload more videos.
587:34
Speaker A
All of these like lies that these gurus are saying, it's just not true and I know it because I actually live and breathe this every single day and I actually make money from this. I want to explain how to increase your RPM, right?
587:45
Speaker A
Because um increasing your RPM is pretty awesome. You know, you could see that this channel, you know, even though it only got 3.6 6 million engaged views. It made $1,500 in December, right, with a 43 cents RPM.
587:57
Speaker A
Now, 43 cents RPM is pretty high for YouTube. At the peak of this channel, it had a 55 RPM, but I kind of want to go in more detail to explain how to increase your RPM and what you can do
588:10
Speaker A
for your channel to get a higher RPM, right? But before I get into that, I kind of want to explain what RPM is and how you can actually, you know, utilize it to your advantage. Uh, but before I
588:22
Speaker A
get into that, you know, I want to kind of show you guys this first. I run a lot of channels, right? You know, we're at 39 monetized channels right now that we're running. Um, and I've pulled around 5 billion views in the past like
588:33
Speaker A
three or so months, right? Three or so months. And, you know, last month we had around two billion views. Actually, I think it's 1.8. Actually, I didn't add it. I say around 1.8 8 billion views.
588:42
Speaker A
But regardless, I don't really care about RPM too much, right? And the reason I don't care about RPM is because I understand that if you're aiming to increase your RPM, you're not going to be aiming to maximize your views, which
588:56
Speaker A
means you will make less money, right? Because more views, for example, this channel here, it's gotten 232 million views. The RPM is only 14 cents, which is still relatively okay, but it generated $17,000, right? So, this is the context I want to
589:13
Speaker A
give you guys before I actually jump into how to increase your RPM. Okay, now increasing RPM is still important because there are some things you can use to view max and still increase your RPM anyway. Okay, so the first thing you
589:22
Speaker A
guys have to understand is what RPM actually is, right? So, RPM stands for revenue per millle. RPM, right? Revenue per millle. Basically what this means is how much money do you make for every thousand views you generate right and this is for every
589:39
Speaker A
social media platform that has some type of advertising um you know program right whether it's YouTube or Facebook or Snapchat or Tik Tok now Instagram does not right but every other social media platform has it so why can we use this to our advantage
589:57
Speaker A
to make money right well first you have to understand where do these numbers numbers actually come from, right?
590:03
Speaker A
Because dollars don't just appear out of thin air, right? Dollars appear from someone else spending money, right? Just like the economy. So, usually this money from RPM usually comes from advertisers who are spending money on your videos, right? And these advertisers usually
590:23
Speaker A
have some sort of product, right? They usually have some sort of product that they are advertising to their ad, right?
590:30
Speaker A
And then this ad converts on their website on their website to dollars, right? A lot of you drop shippers, people who have done drop shipping, you understand this, right? If you haven't done drop shipping, this is how real
590:43
Speaker A
business works. Every single business is running some sort of advertising with paid ads, right? Through some type of product to a website that makes them money. Okay, now that you understand what RPM is and how um it makes people
590:59
Speaker A
money because this comes from advertisers, why is some RPM, right? Why is some RPM greater than others, right?
591:06
Speaker A
Because we have some RPMs that can be as high as 65 cents on a YouTube short, right? And then we have other RPMs that can be as low as like 1 cent, right? So, what's the difference? How are we
591:19
Speaker A
actually getting these diabolically low or just crazy high numbers? Okay, so let's get into that next. Usually when we are calculating RPM, it is based off a couple factors, right? How much money advertisers are willing to spend on
591:37
Speaker A
their ad and what's the percentage of people who are actually going to see this video to convert to an actual advertisement. Right? So you got to understand the advertisers spending the most amount of money usually are selling higher ticket products. And this is
591:54
Speaker A
where sales comes into play, right? So if you guys are just a YouTuber or you've just been doing YouTube, understand sales, okay? Because if you understand sales, you're going to understand product um you're you understand like what products do better,
592:07
Speaker A
what products do worse, and why it's important to actually convert your skills of social media to advertising because advertising is where the real money is later, right? But first, sales is great because you can still do high tickets, right? High ticket is
592:22
Speaker A
usually like um some type of like really, for example, a car. A car is high ticket, right? If you're selling some type of car, you know, they're paying like $30,000 plus dollars for a new Toyota Camry, right?
592:37
Speaker A
compared to let's say you're doing low ticket like you're doing Roblox like I these kids do not have money to spend right so they probably aren't even spending a single dollar but I'll put a dollar there for you guys okay so it's
592:53
Speaker A
very important that you guys understand this first of understanding the difference between high ticket and low ticket so you can understand where the real money is to be made right because if you understand this making money on YouTube is going to become a lot easier.
593:08
Speaker A
And the reason why is because then you're going to be choosing your target audience a lot better. And this is where the second part of RPM comes into which is demographic. Now I know a lot of you guys probably know what this is. You
593:21
Speaker A
know you guys you guys have heard the notorious India RPM right? India RPM, Nigeria.
593:32
Speaker A
Basically any country with an average low income with um low spending power, right, is going to have lower RPMs, which is going to give you less money.
593:46
Speaker A
Which is why people from India try to make United States content or people from Nigeria try to make United States content because they understand the RPMs are low there. Now, you United States people, I'm sure you encountered this as
594:00
Speaker A
well, right? All you Roblox guys, you know, getting views from Indonesia, from Singapore, um, you know, from India. All you Roblox guys getting views from Ind uh, India or maybe you're getting views from, again, Indonesia or or uh, the
594:14
Speaker A
Philippines, right? You've seen these low RPMs because these guys do not have money to spend on you, right? These guys don't have money to spend on your stuff, which is why the low RPMs happen. Now, if we understand that this creates low
594:26
Speaker A
RPMs, what creates high RPMs? Okay, put that right there. What creates high RPMs? What creates higher RPMs is things like United States, right? United Kingdom, right? High buying power countries, Switzerland, right? These countries that have high buying power, which is why if
594:46
Speaker A
you see, you know, for example, people doing United States car videos, right? ranking Chevrolets or GMC's. The RPMs on those videos are insane and you can get low views and make a crapload of money.
595:02
Speaker A
All right now, I'm going to get into actually how to increase your RPM for every single channel because there is a lot of ways to do it outside of just making car videos for people in the United States. Okay. Um, lastly, before
595:18
Speaker A
we get into that, understanding the age and how age affects RPM. is pretty easy to understand. If you're older, you have more money. I recommend targeting people who are 42 plus. These guys usually have enough money to just burn on whatever
595:30
Speaker A
RPMs will be higher for this age. Anything below 42 going in this direction is just going to be less money. That's why Ultra Roblox and a lot of gaming channels get lower RPMs, right? Okay. Awesome. Let's get into
595:44
Speaker A
actually how to increase it. Now, the first thing you have to do is understanding how hashtags work on YouTube. Now, hashtags are very powerful because you can basically use hashtags to target every single audience. And a lot of you guys are using hashtags
595:56
Speaker A
wrong. All right? A lot of you guys you guys use hashtags because you're trying to target um the wrong audiences.
596:04
Speaker A
If you are doing Roblox or ranking or commentary or whatever, right? Don't use hashtag Roblox, okay? You're going to target little kids and little kids don't have mulot to give you, right? If you guys want to make money, don't do
596:20
Speaker A
hashtag Roblox. If you're wanting to make money off ranking, don't do hashtag ranking. All right? If you want to make money off like I ranking Tik Tok videos, don't do hashtag Tik Tok. The only hashtag you should be using ever, unless
596:33
Speaker A
you're trying to target someone specifically with long form, if you're doing short form, do hasha.
596:41
Speaker A
That's the only hashtag I use. I'm not even joking. I know that you looks a little funky. Here, I'll fix that. USA.
596:47
Speaker A
USA is the number one hashtag I use in all my videos. I promise you. I bet you've seen some of your competitors do this, right? Hashtag USA dominates with RPM because you get push United States audiences and you can still view Max at
597:01
Speaker A
the same time because a lot of countries still watch USA content because it's one of the most widely watched uh demographics of audiences in the world.
597:08
Speaker A
All right, the United States media is consumed very heavily. Okay. So, if you guys want to be able to get really high RPMs, use hashtagusa.
597:18
Speaker A
Now, the second way to increase RPMs is understanding your ICP or maybe your I um VP, right? So, your ICP is ideal uh customer persona. Now, I would just change this C here to a V and you have
597:36
Speaker A
ideal viewer persona. An ideal viewer persona is basically what is the actual ideal person who's watching your video.
597:45
Speaker A
For example, if you're making ranking videos ranking the best blank moments, right? Let's let's say ranking the best water bottle flip moments. Your IVP should be probably a male because they have more buying power, right? They should probably be be anywhere from like
597:58
Speaker A
42 plus years old, right? And they should be from the United States. Boom. You just increased your RPM, right? If you have this in mind when you're making your videos, you will make your videos targeted toward it. All
598:11
Speaker A
right? You'll make your videos targeted toward this IVP. So, it's very important to have this in mind. Now, you guys know this already. A lot of you guys who watch my channels, I'm a view maxer, right? I try to get billions of views
598:23
Speaker A
every single month, and that's what I do, right? And the way I'm able to make a lot of money, I mean, I made 120,000 last month and still be able to use this hashtag USA is because just because you
598:34
Speaker A
use hashtag USA doesn't mean you're not going to get just United States audiences, guys, right? You're going to get people all over the world watching your stuff again because United States is everywhere, right? Content from United States is everywhere. But this
598:47
Speaker A
will increase your RPM exponentially. Now, the other way to do this is using this little secret I like to use, take this down, called English commentary. Now, before you click away, I want to explain something very clearly to you, right? English
599:06
Speaker A
commentary is not the same as regular commentary with English in it. The difference is inflections. Okay? So, if you guys know what an inflection is, I'll give you an example right now. All right.
599:21
Speaker A
In this video, we're going to be doing this versus in this video, we're going to be doing this. The first one sounds a little bit more realistic. The second one sounds a little bit more AI. All right? People from the United States can
599:34
Speaker A
tell the difference between United States inflections better than people who see United States as a second language. It's much harder for people who don't speak English or have English as their second language to be able to identify inflections. And inflections
599:47
Speaker A
are a key role in actually being able to massproduce content. Now, as AI gets better, this is going to become irrelevant. But right now, it's very relevant, which is why videos and channels like anime commentary or, you know, English commentary, which there's
600:01
Speaker A
like talking about drama, or any type of uh, you know, sports commentary, those do phenomenal. All right. Now, this right here, if you use English commentary with inflections in your voice or you can train your AI to you be
600:17
Speaker A
able to do inflections, right? This is going to make you so much money because guess what? Inflections create emotion.
600:25
Speaker A
And guess what? Emotions creates engagement, right? And guess what happens? Uh engagement. And guess what happens when you have engagements, right? you have more people who are actually watching your videos and interacting. And there was a study done
600:39
Speaker A
by Harvard that showed that people who interact with your videos more tend to buy more stuff which increases this sweet RPM stat that we are trying to reach. So in conclusion, if you want to actually increase your RPM, right, the main
600:56
Speaker A
things that you want to do, another marker here is one usea hashtagusa. Hopefully you guys can read that. Can you read that? Yes, you can. All right.
601:10
Speaker A
Next thing you're going to do, you can try English commentary. The problem with English commentary is if you do English commentary, it's going to be harder for you to view Max. All right. Now, English commentary doesn't have to be the entire
601:21
Speaker A
time. You could just start off the hook with like, "You won't believe what happened when this guy did this." All right? Or, "The man was walking down the street and then this happened next." And then you just play the clip. All right?
601:34
Speaker A
Or you could start the video with ranking of like ranking the top five camera moments, ranking the top five lightning strike moments, right? Sound normal. Use your voice, bro. I bet your voice is fine. It adds a little bit of
601:46
Speaker A
personal brand to you. Go ahead and use it, man. All right. English commentary, hashtagus USA, and then understanding your IVP.
601:54
Speaker A
All right, this is the main stuff that I want to talk about in today's video. I hope it was helpful, guys. If you guys like this, and you also, bro, if you like this little camera setup I got
602:02
Speaker A
going with the with the whiteboard, bro, I recently bought this giant whiteboard if you guys don't know. And I'm going to put my my um chair over here. But yeah, I hope you guys enjoyed it. Um, you know, I want to get into more detail
602:12
Speaker A
about this stuff. I'm going to actually switch back to my um my normal camera.
602:16
Speaker A
Well guys, I hope that video was informative for you to increase your RPM. Utilize everything I said there, you know, hashtag USA. Uh, you know, making sure you understand your IAVP and also, you know, adding a little English
602:27
Speaker A
commentary as well. One thing I actually forgot to mention, which actually I want to bring up real quick, is if I actually go here, make sure when you actually go to your channel, let's say, let's say you set up a new channel, right? I'm
602:36
Speaker A
going to go to a new channel here. Um, here, here's a new channel that we're starting up. So like if we actually go to a new channel here um make sure when you select this this country of residence make sure you go to your
602:46
Speaker A
country. All right. Sometimes not selecting a country residence can limit reach and also it can limit reach of anything. You do not have to use # United States or put United States here if you're not from United States. All
602:57
Speaker A
right. You could put Bangladesh and you will still get United States audience as long as your videos target to the USA.
603:03
Speaker A
All right. So if you're from United States, use United States here. All right. This is one last thing I want to just throw in there because a lot of you guys fake your country of residence here. That can affect a lot of stuff
603:12
Speaker A
with your AdSense as well and potentially even get you terminated if you lie about this. All right, so just be careful with that. Also, make sure you hit not made for kids in your advanced settings. That'll help increase
603:22
Speaker A
RPM as well. When you do that, it just ends up just reaching to kids instead of or not kids instead of uh kids, right?
603:29
Speaker A
You want to reach adults because adults have more money. And then lastly, if you go to your upload defaults, make sure you do entertainment here, okay? Don't do gaming. I know a couple of you guys in the Roblox niche, especially, I see
603:40
Speaker A
you guys like choosing Roblox as your game. Make sure you do entertainment, okay? Entertainment is going to make you probably the most money. Someone could argue that if you do news and politics, it'll increase further, but I've seen
603:49
Speaker A
entertainment gets the most views to RPM balance ratio. All right, I want to explain exactly how you can use explosive growth tactics on YouTube shorts to actually explode your channels. It's not going to be any like BS where I'm kind of like, you know,
604:01
Speaker A
walking around the line of giving the actual information. I'm just going to drop it for you guys and tell you guys exactly what to fix so you guys can actually implement it for yourself. So, let's get into it. Right. So, these are
604:10
Speaker A
three different channels that I have here. Here's one, two, and three. And um these are all student channels that have helped pretty explosively grow their channel, right? They went from getting anywhere from like $500 a day to $4,000
604:25
Speaker A
a day. So, let's talk about how we did this, right? How we doing this across many different channels and how you guys can do the exact same thing to hit some pretty crazy numbers, right? Because it all comes down to the small things that
604:38
Speaker A
make a big difference. A lot of people think you need to, oh, do this. It's just about making a good video, right? I hear that going around a lot. And yes, it is true that you need to make a good
604:47
Speaker A
video. But there's a lot of other things involved with making a good video that people don't talk about, right? Because if I made a video just saying, "Hey, make a good video." Guess what would happen? no one would be able to know
604:56
Speaker A
what to do because there wouldn't be enough information. So, here are some actionable steps that you guys can do to actually increase the amount of views you're getting and subsequently the amount of money you are making per month
605:05
Speaker A
on YouTube to get explosive growth. All right, so the first thing you have to understand is understanding the 53 method. Now, what is the five or sorry, wait, it's called the five uh 32 method.
605:18
Speaker A
I'm sorry, the 3-2 method. Now, a lot of these names I've kind of just made up to kind of help you guys conceptualize what I'm saying here, but what the 3-2 method is, right? Um, it's basically you need
605:28
Speaker A
to be uploading five videos a day and three videos need to be you testing something different. And two videos need to be you doing something that you know works, right? And you may ask me the question, okay, Devin, so if I'm doing
605:43
Speaker A
something that quotequote works, but I've never gotten success and how do I know it works? Well, proven formats, right? It's really good to replicate and reiterate the type of content you're making. If you can replicate and then reiterate the content that you're
605:54
Speaker A
making, it's going to be much easier for you to scale because if you see something that works, it will work again for you. You just have to make the content good. All right. So, what can you exactly do to replicate and
606:06
Speaker A
reiterate content? Well, first you have to find the niche, right? And I'm not going to go into finding a niche because I'm sure most people who are watching this already have a niche. If you don't have a niche, just watch some other
606:13
Speaker A
videos I posted about finding niches. But once you actually have that niche, you need to look at the actual outliers of that video and figure out what videos are getting the most amount of traction.
606:24
Speaker A
And it's pretty simple, guys. Just look at what videos are getting the most amount of views. Once you see that, try to replicate the type of style they're doing. And no, I'm not going to get, you know, into the saying, oh, you need to
606:34
Speaker A
do this and do that and do this. It's that simple. Find the competitors that are doing the best. Look at the videos that they are making. Copy them, right?
606:44
Speaker A
replicates first. After you copy them, then you can reiterate their content, which is where these um three or these uh three new test videos comes in, right? So, here's what Mr. Beast does, right? Good example. Let's say he does a
607:02
Speaker A
tested format, right? Keeping someone inside a circle for 365 days. Let's see how much money they are willing to stay there to make. They make $10,000 per day, right? Then they try. He sees it work. He's like, "Okay, let me try this
607:14
Speaker A
with maybe in a shopping center. Okay, let me try this in a house. Let me try chopping two people underground together. Let me try chopping two people in the sky together." Right? And it's the same format with different type of
607:25
Speaker A
uh framing, right? I'm sure you guys have heard of the word niche bending. I love that buzzword. It's great. U but really it's just replicating and then reiterating the type of content you're making, right? Because if you replicate
607:37
Speaker A
something that works and then you reiterate it, boom, you got a new style of content, right? And then all of a sudden, it's something that no one has ever seen before. So, we're going from making videos from like uh, you know,
607:49
Speaker A
keeping someone underground for 10 days, seeing if they can survive to keeping someone in the air for 10 days, seeing if they can survive. Same format, different framing. Both of them still get a lot of views. Right? Now, what I
608:02
Speaker A
said, most of you may think, "Okay, that was really broad advice, right?" But actually take action on that, right? Go to your competitors, find the niches or find the videos that are popping off and getting millions of views. Once you find
608:14
Speaker A
those videos that are getting millions of views, actually look at the content, figure out why it's doing well, replicate it. After you replicate their content, do it over again. You do it right after you start getting views, you
608:27
Speaker A
can start testing a little bit of stuff because you get this thing called retention gut. And that's the next part of this video. What I want to talk about is retention gut. So what is retention gut?
608:38
Speaker A
Retention gut is a word that I made up, right? And it's kind of a feeling you have in your chest when you're editing a video or you see a video and you know this video should probably be fixed here
608:48
Speaker A
or this can be better here, right? It's basically a way for you to know this video is going to dip here. I need to fix this. And news flash, the only way to build this skill of retention gut is
609:02
Speaker A
through repeating the same thing over and over again because a skill is built through uh repetition, right? So going back to these channels here that we've helped scale, for example, this student, he has a really good retention gut
609:15
Speaker A
because he also has just been scaling so hard and been doing YouTube for so long, right? And as you can see here, he's been in the YouTube game for a very long time, but this is the highest peak he's
609:25
Speaker A
ever had. We're gonna be doing an interview with him soon. He's gotten some really amazing results, right? But the point still stands. You cannot build the skill of retention gut until you put in more reps. This is not something you
609:38
Speaker A
can buy a course and learn. It's not something you can buy a mentorship and learn. It's not something you can watch one YouTube video and understand it. It is built through repetition. Right? Much like how F1 drivers can react quickly
609:50
Speaker A
when there's something in the way, right? They can react quick. You can't watch a YouTube video and then have really good reaction time. It is built through repetition. It is a muscle memory, a gut feeling you feel in your
610:00
Speaker A
chest and your stomach. When you see a video that's not doing well, you know what to improve, right? Learn this skill is built through repetition. So, put in more reps and you will build a skill.
610:12
Speaker A
This will help you analyze content and be able to improve later as you keep making more videos. All right, here's the next skill that I need you guys to learn if you guys want to break and start getting explosive growth with your
610:23
Speaker A
videos. Break your limiting beliefs. All right, limiting beliefs is such a big factor I see in so many students. I don't even know how to spell beliefs right.
610:34
Speaker A
Whatever. So many students I see have a problem with limiting beliefs. What is a limiting belief? A limiting belief is I can only get this amount of views because my competitor got this many of views or my video should get this many
610:48
Speaker A
views because I hit these stats. Right? You always need to be challenging yourself. I am very open to criticism.
610:54
Speaker A
If someone says you need to fix this, I will try to listen and understand.
610:58
Speaker A
Right? If someone's saying hey this is, you know, maybe you could do something better here. When I get hate comments, I don't see it as hate. Right? If it's blatantly someone's attacking saying, hey, look, you look like an Indian
611:06
Speaker A
scammer. It's like, okay, I'm not going to it's not really any criticism, right? But if someone gives like actual feedback, I tried listening. And you need to give feedback to yourself and be able to understand what you need to
611:16
Speaker A
improve. This is where limiting beliefs comes in. So when you have limiting beliefs, it limits you from getting the amount of success that you could have.
611:25
Speaker A
For example, so many people watching this video have the goal of, okay, I want to make 10K per month, right?
611:31
Speaker A
Everyone says it 10K per month, it'll make you financially free. But that's not really true, right? 10K per month if you're doing business after taxes is probably like 6K per month, right?
611:42
Speaker A
That's not even including expenses, right? Let's say expenses is like, I don't know, 2K for editors, right? And then you have like 4K per month. And then boom, you got rent. And then I always hate hearing 10K per month
611:54
Speaker A
because 10K per month isn't 10K per month. What you should really be aiming for is like 40K per month, right? 40K per month is a really good spot to be.
612:03
Speaker A
Most of the thoughts you have are not your thoughts. It's just people who you've listened to on the internet who has kind of fed you these information to try to sell you something, right? We try to keep it real here. 40k per month is
612:13
Speaker A
probably a good spot to be after taxes, after business expenses, where you can still get a, you know, a pretty nice apartment, a nice car, and you can go out to eat, and you don't have to worry about things too much. Right now, across
612:26
Speaker A
all the channels we're running, we're making around $120,000. Uh well, actually actually this month's actually closer to $80,000 because we're down a little bit because RPMs do drop in March. Um but regardless, you know, it's still pretty good money and you
612:40
Speaker A
know, we still have, you know, SAS, we have uh you know, our program that we run, we also have equity and companies our our agency um works with. So, we have a lot of different ways to make money, but from the YouTube side of
612:50
Speaker A
things, we're making around 80K. Now, I'm not saying that you should be aiming for exactly 40K is like your goal, but aim higher. Don't aim for 10k a month because you heard some guru say it online, bro. Right? It's not it's not
613:04
Speaker A
going to help you, right? Sure, it's a good spot to start, but you could be doing so much better. I'm sure you've heard the quote, "Shoot among the stars or shoot for the moon and even if you miss, you'll land amongst the stars,
613:15
Speaker A
right? So, if you shoot high and you fail, you still end up landing higher than the average person, right? I recently bought a Corvette, CA Corvette, and I'm currently 20 right now, right?
613:26
Speaker A
And it's a pretty proud accomplishment for me. But that's only because I decided that like, okay, I want to get a Corvette, um, you know, when I'm 20, right? If I said I wanted to get a, you know, a Lamborghini when I was 20, I
613:38
Speaker A
probably would have been able to get that, too. If I said I wanted to get a, I don't know, a McLaren, if I said I wanted to get a Toyota Camry, whatever it would have been, I would have gotten
613:45
Speaker A
it. But if you shoot for that belief, right, you will get that. Now, I'm not really a car guy. I just like the way the betties look. All right, next thing.
613:53
Speaker A
I want to tell you a quote from Kobe Bryant and he says something along the lines of once I realized the world was my library basketball became so much easier right I don't remember the exact quote but he is basically talking about
614:08
Speaker A
how when he started basically taking information from everywhere and started implementing it to his own content he was able to or his own game it was able to start scaling and you can do the same thing for content as well right a lot of
614:22
Speaker A
people that I talk do think having social interactions with people outside of YouTube or work is a bad thing, right? They cut off their parents or their day ones or they stop watching videos that are not related to business.
614:35
Speaker A
And that affects their psychology a lot because surprisingly enough, if you only focus on YouTube, right, and you only watch videos about YouTube and you only do YouTube, then your entire life is just YouTube. And this is fine. But
614:52
Speaker A
guess what? As a YouTube, we have to be creative because we are creators. And as a creator, we need to operate underneath a business owner perspective. And business owners need to have multiple perspectives, which is why it's important to consume different types of
615:05
Speaker A
media. And make sure you're actually trying to understand the people around you and take that insight in. Right?
615:11
Speaker A
Just because you're trying to do YouTube does not mean everyone else around you is stupid because they want to go to college. It's a big problem I see with a lot of people in the space.
615:22
Speaker A
They have really big egos. And this happens just in business in general. When you start making money or you you're even pursuing something, you're not even making money. You have this superiority complex where you're like, I'm doing so much better than everyone
615:35
Speaker A
else or I'm going to do this better than you. I'm going to be better than you.
615:38
Speaker A
And it creates this sense of ego. And guess what? When you have ego, it also prevents growth because ego and growth are opposites. You cannot grow fully until your ego is killed. I made an entire video on this. Um it was like
615:55
Speaker A
talking about ego and everything and it's very very informative. I recommend watching it just like a face full video and um it's very important as a business owner, right? Because a lot of people have egos and it's important to be
616:06
Speaker A
humble and learn. And why is this important to breaking out of this is because a lot of people trap themselves in a box, right? A lot of creators, they have this little box they're in and they see themselves as a persona of like,
616:17
Speaker A
"Okay, I can only upload videos about Roblox." One of my best friends, he makes content in Roblox. He has like two million subs.
616:27
Speaker A
Love this guy, right? And I was talking with him because he was making Roblox content. He was doing really well. He, you know, kind of dialed it down a little bit and revenue went down, right?
616:38
Speaker A
Went from like 35K to like 2K a month. And I was talking with him and I was like, the reason why I think you're not scaling is because you're trapping yourself in a box, right? This is not the corporate ladder. This is not a
616:51
Speaker A
nineto-five. We are running a business. And business means you can do anything, right? Just because you have a Roblox channel does not mean you can only upload Roblox. You can switch to Minecraft. You can switch to My Little
617:01
Speaker A
Pony ranking if you wanted to, right? There's nothing stopping you from changing your niche, changing the content other than the psychological limits you're putting on yourself, saying I can't upload this because because because and there's no reason, right? It's the same reason why when you
617:18
Speaker A
tell someone like you should quit your job and start a business, they just start like I can't I can't I can't quit because you know I have this to pay and this to pay and like what if the
617:25
Speaker A
business fails and like you could just start the business on a side, right? Or like you get kicked out of your your house, you can go crash at someone else's house. There's always ways around it, right? Don't limit yourself because
617:35
Speaker A
you have this identity attached to yourself, right? And this kind of goes back to the limiting beliefs as well.
617:40
Speaker A
Um, but yeah, just don't don't limit yourself because you feel like you have to match a certain identity. Um, I hope that information that I kind of shared with you guys will help. And this isn't supposed to be some guru advice where
617:58
Speaker A
you just take it and then you go watch the next guru video, right? Actually take the information I said here, you know, ego, understanding different perspectives, understanding not trapping yourself in a niche, understanding limiting beliefs, understanding retention gut, right? Making sure you're
618:13
Speaker A
testing different videos. If you notice, it's all about collecting data, right? That's the main point of this. Once you collect enough data, you were able to scale, right? to collect more data, understand what's working, and fix it.
618:25
Speaker A
Right? The reason I'm saying it this way is because I have people who watch these videos who are in ranking or Roblox commentary or AI commentary, maybe they're doing animations, maybe they're doing face content, whatever it is, right? Everything applies to collecting
618:38
Speaker A
more data and understanding how you can improve it. All right? So, there is something going on in YouTube that I have not seen a single creator talk about and it's going on with TV audiences. Right? So, this is one of our
618:50
Speaker A
student channels. I've been working with him for about 6 months and you can see here that when we started utilizing TV audiences to our advantage, we had an insane increase in revenue. And keep in mind, this is from shorts, by the way,
619:03
Speaker A
short form content, we generated this amount of revenue here. We can even go past 28 days, we're up $72,000.
619:10
Speaker A
And then also with the other sponsorships and other stuff as well, it's actually closer to 100. But if we go over here at the audience right here and we scroll down, you're going to notice something kind of crazy, right?
619:21
Speaker A
Our short form viewership on TV is 44.5%. Now, how exactly did we utilize this to our advantage? The first thing you have to understand is understanding why YouTube is dominating right now in the TV industry, right? YouTube actually
619:38
Speaker A
crossed um commanding 13.4% 24% of the viewership in July of 2025. And also as of 2026, YouTube has completely taken over Netflix, right? YouTube, the video streaming platform for just people, right? Has taken over Netflix, the huge multibillion dollar corporation that
619:57
Speaker A
streams just movies mainly for TV, right? I think you understand how huge that is, right? That means that people on YouTube are watching videos a lot more on shorts and long form. Right?
620:10
Speaker A
Here's another example. Right? This channel right here, we've gotten 1.8 billion views. We've generated $183,000.
620:18
Speaker A
If we go to our audience over here, right? And we actually go down to our TV here, you'll see it's only 13%. Right?
620:24
Speaker A
Guess what? Around 6 to 10 months ago, right? Or sorry, 6 to 12 months ago, it was uh around two to 3%. Right? The TV has surplus an insane amount. And what's great is TV audiences give insane RPMs.
620:39
Speaker A
Let's go back to this channel over here. This is one of our student channels.
620:41
Speaker A
This generated again $72,000 the past month. We scaled them up. If we go to the shorts RPM, we're around 24 cents with TV audiences. The reason why is because people who are watching on TV usually are from higher paying
620:53
Speaker A
countries, which also means they have higher RPM. So that kind of that just makes sense, right? But let's talk about how you can utilize this to your advantage to help scale your own channel up further with viewership and
621:03
Speaker A
specifically increasing your RPM to make more money. Right? So the first thing you got to really understand when you're looking at TV audiences is understanding what is someone, you know, who is the ideal um, you know, viewer persona or
621:21
Speaker A
um IVP of your actual audience, right? So, IVP stands for ideal viewer persona. And we want to understand who's exactly watching our stuff, right? So, keep in mind, where is the TV in the first place? Where's the TV? It's usually
621:35
Speaker A
placed in a family setting. All right? Usually on a wall, maybe in the living room. You know, people usually don't watch TV by themselves in, you know, their um in inside the room. It's usually in like a family setting, right?
621:47
Speaker A
So, keep in mind when you're making this content, it has to be familyfriendly, right? So, all you guys like making sexual content, um, you know, all you guys making content where there's like bad words in it, like I'd recommend not
622:01
Speaker A
doing that as much. You can do it, but not as much because remember, audiences that are watching this are usually, you know, going to be family settings, right? So, the family is watching this.
622:12
Speaker A
So, keep that in mind. It's the first thing I recommend. Don't do any sexual content, right? Um, that's the main thing. The other thing you need to understand is if you're watching on a big screen, you need the highest
622:23
Speaker A
quality. And if you need the highest quality, guess what you have to do? You need to upload in 4K. So in your video editor, if you're going to, you know, export your video, export it in 4K, it'll upload in higher pixels. And when
622:35
Speaker A
you upload it to the actual YouTube studio or YouTube channel itself, what's going to happen is you're going to be able to basically just upload higher quality. And then the viewership for the TV will be more satisfied. You'll notice
622:47
Speaker A
that people who watch on TV usually don't comment, but they have higher AVDs. Right? This goes into our AVD and LV ratio. I talk about this all the time in other videos, but I'll briefly go over it right now. Right? You always
622:58
Speaker A
want to make sure your AVD, your average view duration is greater, right? You want to make sure it's greater than your length of video, you know? So, like for example, let's say you have a 30 second length of video. You want to make sure
623:12
Speaker A
your AVD is at least 31 seconds or you could say just 30 plus seconds, right?
623:19
Speaker A
So, this is very important to understand because TV um viewers typically, you know, they they click on the controller, they put it down and they watch. And the reason I'm thinking about it this way is because I think about this with every
623:30
Speaker A
single, you know, audience I'm doing because guys, the IVP of your audience is so important. And a lot of people don't think about this because I come from a business um background, right? I don't come from a, you know, creator
623:42
Speaker A
background. I come from a business background. So, I think like a business owner, right? I have 30 plus um, actually, it's exactly 30 now. YouTube automated channels that we're currently scaling and running right now. And I operate this at a level of a business
623:55
Speaker A
owner, right? I'm not a creator. I don't edit videos. I don't upload videos. I have teams in place that make these videos for me and making passive income that make me around $100,000 a month, right? So because I'm able to do it this
624:07
Speaker A
way and I think about things in this perspective, it makes it much easier for me to analyze my data and then think about it, right? So for example, like when everything was happening with the massive monetization rate with YouTube,
624:18
Speaker A
everyone was complaining about it. I just thought about it from a business perspective, right? If YouTube is trying to make money, they're going to demonetize channels that aren't making the money. And this goes into the very crucial part of understanding why TV is
624:31
Speaker A
so important. YouTube makes money from TV because guess what? When someone is watching the TV, there's usually four people, maybe three to four people around them at once, right? So, even though the views may say, like, for example, like this channel here, we only
624:46
Speaker A
got 414 million views in the past 28 days, this is probably closer to like 1.5 billion views because we have a 44% TV audience. It maybe even more than that, right? And the reason why it's so important is because guess what? YouTube
625:01
Speaker A
makes money from people clicking on advertising, right? Buying a product. The advertiser gets money from the product and then the advertiser reinvests back into the AdSense account, which is how we get money through AdSense. That's why it's called AdSense
625:15
Speaker A
because advertisers spending money and then we're getting the money from the advertisers, right? So, this is why understanding the TV viewership is so important because multi- people are watching this, right? So if someone sees a product in a video, they're more
625:29
Speaker A
likely to go to their phone and buy it, right? Which is why TV viewership has higher RPMs because it has higher conversion rates. Maybe they won't buy from the TV directly, but YouTube has data tracking, right? They have Google
625:39
Speaker A
heat maps. They basically track, hey, someone just watched this video in this household on this account with this IP and then they bought from here, right?
625:46
Speaker A
They track that stuff and it all is connected, right? So this is why it's very important to kind of utilize your TV to your advantage. Make sure you're uploading in 4K. Um, you know, doing related videos is very helpful as well
625:56
Speaker A
because it also serves more people on the TV, your audience. Um, and also last thing I'll tell you, ranking works best for TV. All right? You want to do any type of videos and scale them up, do a
626:08
Speaker A
ranking video. All right? Ranking works. And I'm not saying start a ranking channel. I'm saying do ranking videos, right? So, let's say you're making, I don't know, uh, Ronaldo edits, right? Or maybe you're just doing football edits in general, like soccer in America,
626:22
Speaker A
right? If you're doing those type of videos, instead of uploading one soccer clip or one football clip, do ranking the top five best, you know, shots um from the 50 yard mark, right? Ranking the best keeper saves. That's going to
626:37
Speaker A
perform insane on the TV because ranking does the best. I'll give you a little sauce right now. This channel is a ranking channel, right? One of my students who joined our program six months ago, past 90 days, we're up
626:47
Speaker A
$200,000, right? Because he's a in a ranking niche. He's getting a really high TV audience and we know how to utilize the TV to advantage. I have never said this, by the way, publicly on any, you know, videos, long form for my personal brand
627:01
Speaker A
talking about YouTube shorts. I usually keep this for my students, but you know, I'm actually just trying to just give as much information as possible now because I've just been seeing a lot of people kind of not really giving as much
627:12
Speaker A
information. It's low-key been pissing me off. I go on Twitter or I go on YouTube and like I see people talking about the same info and not really giving real sauce like what I just told you. If you implement this stuff right
627:22
Speaker A
now to your channel in in the next 8 to 12 days, I guarantee you're probably going to be like shooting an insane amount of numbers up for your views, right? And the reason why I'm so confident is because I just see it
627:31
Speaker A
happen with my students and my personal channels as well. So use this to your advantage, bro. Use the TV audience because it's low-key crazy. Do the ranking stuff. Make sure you're uploading in 4K and you will make more
627:42
Speaker A
money. And even if you're not getting more views, you'll still make more money cuz guess what? Your RPM is going to increase. So, how do you know when your YouTube channel is about to die, right?
627:51
Speaker A
So, a lot of you guys have seen some success with YouTube. Maybe you've gotten a lot of views, but then you see your views start plummeting. Maybe your revenue starts plummeting. So, in this video, I'm going to explain when to know
628:00
Speaker A
when your channel's going to die. Let's get straight into it. So, the first thing you guys need to understand is it's not random, right? Because channels don't just die randomly. So, this channel right here, right, it's at $190,000
628:14
Speaker A
the past uh, you know, 6 months is of running the um this channel. And you can see we've had a pretty big drop off, right? Uh, you can see we we're going from like, you know, three to 5k days
628:25
Speaker A
all the way to 700 to $1,000 days. And if you look at the revenue over the past um, you know, 6 months or so, you can see December was 73,000. January was 40, February was 15, 16. You see, it's it's
628:37
Speaker A
obviously died off a lot since December. And there's something really important to understand because YouTube will tell you when your channel's going to die just from a hidden metric in your analytics called your new viewer percentage. Right? So there's this thing
628:53
Speaker A
in marketing called TAM. Right? It stands for total addressable market. And if you've heard of the word TAM, I'm going to explain how it works on YouTube because it's a little bit different than marketing. And here's how you can use it
629:03
Speaker A
to your advantage to avoid having your channel getting um you know either view jail, view bombed or just having a really really big dip because some of you guys have had like insane months like for example 105 $20,000 months and
629:16
Speaker A
then you've had dips where it goes from there all the way to you know maybe it's only like a five three to $5,000 month or maybe you're not even making money yet because you got you know dropped so
629:27
Speaker A
hard from YouTube. So when you're focusing on your YouTube channel, right, you need to look at what your TAM is. So TAM stands for total total addressable market. So let's say this big circle is your TAM, right? And let's say you know
629:43
Speaker A
this percentage over here, let's say you have like 33% of the um entire viewer base watching your content. 33% is like right there, right? Okay. So, let's say you have 33% of the entire viewer base of this market
629:58
Speaker A
watching your content. What you're going to notice is if you have 33% of the people who are watching your content, this is actually going to equate to an exact number in your audience watch behavior. Right? So, if 33% of the
630:12
Speaker A
people watching this audience is watching your content, this typically means that the other 66% is not watching your content. Right? So, which means this 66% is probably your new viewer ratio, new viewers, right? And this 33% over here, this 33%
630:31
Speaker A
is usually your CV plus RV, your casual viewers plus your regular viewers. So, these two things added together, right?
630:41
Speaker A
So, casual viewer plus regular viewer. So, this is CV plus RV. Now, why is this important? It's important because I always track this. If you guys have used Satura, which is a software that tracks your trust score, I'll leave in the
630:54
Speaker A
description for you guys. If you've tracked your trust score with Satura, you'll probably notice that it's told you, "Hey, your new viewer ratio is this or your casual viewer ratio is this. You should probably do this to increase it."
631:03
Speaker A
Well, every anytime I'm analyzing any of my student channels, I always tell them, hey, make sure if you're, you know, analyzing or looking at these videos here, uh, you need to be paying really, really close attention to what your
631:16
Speaker A
actual percentage of your new casual view ratio. Let's look at actually when this channel started dipping, right? You could see here it was around, you know, around December 21st, 22nd where we had our big up and I would say around
631:29
Speaker A
January 2nd is when we really started having a dip where it we never really quite reached this high again. So if we look to our audience, look at our watch behavior and look at the past year.
631:39
Speaker A
Let's go to the exact day, January 22nd. All right, so here we go. Right here, January 22nd. You can see here this is when we started seeing a decrease in our new viewer ratio. And as our new viewer
631:56
Speaker A
decreased, guess what? So did our monthly audience. And so did our views as well. And this is very important because if you actually look at you know this graph here, guess what happens if this circle becomes 50% casual viewer
632:11
Speaker A
and 50% regular plus um or 50% regular plus casual viewer and 50% new viewer.
632:17
Speaker A
So let's say like you had 50% of this was new viewer. What's going to happen is you're going to see your monthly audience start dipping. And I've noticed this for so many different channels. If your monthly audience starts dipping,
632:27
Speaker A
this is when you know that your channel is going to be going down a downtrend soon, right? So, here's some good ways that you can do to kind of avoid this happening in the first place. So, typically when you're seeing your 50%
632:38
Speaker A
new viewer rate start going down, this means that either you're reaching the most amount of audience for this niche um or the niche is dying. It's one or the other. A good way to tell is by looking at your competitors, right? So,
632:52
Speaker A
if the niche is dying, so let's just say dying verse, right? If it's dying, what you need to do is look at your competitors and look at their past 28 days in their past 90 days with either, you know, like any type of tool you can
633:03
Speaker A
use to track their views. You can just look at their past um videos and see are their videos going up or down. If it's going down and every one of your competitors is getting less views, the niche is dying. All right? Now, if it is
633:14
Speaker A
dying, there's two solutions, right? Either one, you just drop it and you go start a new niche, or two, you change, right? So you basically try to build off something else. Trying new formats, trying new styles, right? So if you see
633:28
Speaker A
this, right, the main thing I'd recommend if you try if you see it is look at your competitors first. If your competitors are dying, then maybe I'd recommend dropping it. You can try changing if you want, but I recommend
633:36
Speaker A
just going where the views go, right? Cuz like viewers go together in waves, right? For example, uh seven years ago, anime edits were not nearly as popular as a thing right now as they are now, right? So, for example, like viewers
633:49
Speaker A
flock to this and maybe in the future, like maybe some type of other edits.
633:54
Speaker A
Maybe there's going to be new animations that pop up. Maybe it's going to be animation channels taking over all the shorts, right? Because right now they have like a kind of a hold, but you know what I mean? Like the viewers go to
634:02
Speaker A
different um parts of the uh of YouTube communities and whatever community the viewers are going to, you should follow them and you know redirect your content in that direction. So for example right now currently as of like this year 2026
634:17
Speaker A
uh ranking is you know the direction that a lot of people are going toward.
634:20
Speaker A
If you look at a lot of big channels what are channels that do well? Top 10 blank, top five blank, top seven blank, right? So like if you see that your football content is not doing well, maybe try a different format. Top five
634:35
Speaker A
or top seven football fails with shorts, right? And what's going to happen is if you just try a different format, you will reach a wider audience. It's going to make it more appealing to everyone who's watching your content. And guess
634:47
Speaker A
what's going to happen? You're going to get more views. And then if you get more views, you're going to make more money.
634:52
Speaker A
And at the end of the day, we want to make more money because if you're watching this video, you may be in a dip right now and you want to get out of this dip. So try the different format
634:59
Speaker A
changes. Um, see if you can try that because monthly audience dipping like this, it sucks. I mean, like, lucky luckily for this channel, we're still up like $26,000 this month. And the reason why we're starting to climb back up
635:10
Speaker A
again. You can see um for our revenue here, you know, we had like a $15,000 month in February, 16, 21, and then this year is going or this month's going to be 26. We're going up because we're trying new formats, trying new edits,
635:22
Speaker A
trying new things. Try try. All right. I recommend if you guys are going to be trying, I recommend doing the three two method where you do three videos of trying something new and two videos of something that you know works. You
635:37
Speaker A
should always be testing on YouTube shorts more than you are doing something that works, right?
635:46
Speaker A
Because if you do testing more than it works, then guess what? You can just have more expansion. You should be the forefront. You shouldn't be the copier, right? is if you can start trends, the person who starts a trend usually gets
635:55
Speaker A
the most amount of views and everyone who copies him usually just gets tidbits of what that main guy is getting. I've started trends before and that's how we got our two billion view month a couple months ago. We got two billion views in
636:05
Speaker A
a single month from our 38 YouTube short automated channels and yeah, that's pretty much what you do if your channel is starting to die. So, a lot of you have been getting hit with inauthentic content on YouTube or maybe you've seen
636:15
Speaker A
the Twitter thread where it's all over Twitter. Everyone is getting hit with inauthentic content. I mean like if I go to my Twitter right here, the first thing I see right here on my trending tab is right here. YouTube demonization
636:27
Speaker A
3D animation channels for inauthentic content. And basically there are so many people that over the past couple of days that have been hit from inauthentic content in the animation niche the the most reformative the most original niche where you go in Blender you spend hours
636:44
Speaker A
absolute hours making a single animation just for the videos to get hit with inauthentic content. So why exactly is this happening? Because I have been saying this for months and people said I was fear-mongering. They said, "Devon, you're crazy for saying this." So, let
637:00
Speaker A
me tell you why this is happening. All right, this is my theory. By the way, this isn't confirmed, but also I'm running 35 YouTube automation channels.
637:08
Speaker A
We're generating 1 billion views a month. In January, we generated almost two billion views a month. And then also, I also have access to 250 other channels. So, I have a lot of data points. I mean, if you just look at my
637:20
Speaker A
YouTube studio right here, we actually just take a look at all the channels that we're currently, you know, working with. We have a lot of channels that I have access to right now. All right, so I have a lot of data points. Okay, a lot
637:32
Speaker A
of data points. So let's talk about it right now of why exactly is everyone getting hit from inauthentic content.
637:38
Speaker A
All right, so the first thing you guys need to understand is how YouTube detection works and how the YouTube policies have changed. So YouTube right now is moving in the direction toward branding and personality. Now what does that mean? It means they want humans at
637:51
Speaker A
service level. That's what they want. Especially with all of the mass AI slop that was produced over the past six months on YouTube. The reason why these mass AI bans started happening is because was over the past six months
638:03
Speaker A
there has been an increase of 50% YouTube bots on the on the YouTube platform right 50% of people who are using YouTube the views are are bots before when you look at a qualified viewer for example like this channel
638:18
Speaker A
right here like if you just look at uh you know the the revenue and we go to shorts revenue here you know it says 18 million engaged views but if we go to actual audience there's 37 million people watches Why? Because a lot of
638:28
Speaker A
these people who are like scrolling on this, it's actually bot accounts. They're not real accounts. Okay, that's the first thing. Second thing, there's a lot of people on YouTube who are using AI to mass upload content. And this is
638:40
Speaker A
where the spam and inauthentic content comes from. Now, how does YouTube detection actually work? So, YouTube has a pixel detection um system where basically it's like a VIN number for a car, right? So, whoever uploads that video first on YouTube kind of has the
638:55
Speaker A
rights to that video. And it's so crazy because I used to run some channels on like, you know, Instagram and Tik Tok because I used to like do that full-time like a couple years ago. It was like around four years ago. And remember when
639:07
Speaker A
I switched over to YouTube, I decided I'm going to upload all my videos from Tik Tok and Instagram over to my YouTube channels. And then YouTube was saying, "Hey, you don't own the rights to these videos because, you know, someone else
639:16
Speaker A
already has uploaded this." And these guys were trying to strike me. And I had to show them the dates. I had to show them all the things of how I own the stuff and then I ended up winning and
639:23
Speaker A
getting my monetization and those channels actually ended up getting taken down. But the point still matters that when you are uploading videos on YouTube, the only thing that matters is when you upload first, right? Whoever uploads first usually has the first
639:36
Speaker A
pixel or sorry for the VIN number attached to that video. Okay? Now, if you own the rights to that, you can go and copyright that. It's a whole other thing. I'm not going to get into that.
639:44
Speaker A
Now, what's great about this is this stops a lot of people from stealing content, right? But the thing is this also applies to audio not just pixels on the screen but audio as well. And you can imagine when so many people are
639:56
Speaker A
using like 11 Labs or like an AI voice like Adam for example like everyone uses Adam. Um you know when they start using these AI voices everyone starts kind of writing the same scripts and I noticed some of my students right they were
640:08
Speaker A
writing similar scripts and then one guy gets taken down the other guy's views start pluming. I'm like what's going on?
640:12
Speaker A
They have similar scripts generated by chat GBT right using the exact same AI voice. And guess what? When enough people start doing that, the content sounds the exact same. All right? And even if it's part of a video that sounds
640:26
Speaker A
the exact same, when the YouTube system detects that, right, they will flag you for inauthentic content. And usually they don't flag you at first. It's just a little red flag inside of the algorithm or the little checklist, right? But they don't tell you anything
640:38
Speaker A
yet. And once you do this enough times, eventually you get hit. And sometimes YouTube algorithm does this on a mass scale where they just flag a lot of people and then boom, they hit them all at once. which is why this Twitter thing
640:47
Speaker A
happened where everyone on Twitter basically said, "Hey, my channel got hit for a spam." And I'm going to show you guys another example of this right here.
640:54
Speaker A
So, this is another channel. I'm going to show you a student channel. Um, and he was crushing it around, you know, a month and a half ago. And here, check this out real quick. So, yeah, this student, he was crushing around a month
641:05
Speaker A
and a half ago. Um, he actually had a 35k month. Um, but what happened is the views started plummeting. And you will notice, by the way, the exact same plummets of all of these channels that are using AI voices is around January,
641:20
Speaker A
right? Around the middle of January is when all this started happening here. Let me go back to the other channel as well. Let me show you an animation channel. All right, this is an animation channel I'm showing you now. Look at
641:28
Speaker A
this past 365 days. Let's look at January. January is when it starts dipping. Both of those channels I just showed you, right? The student channel and then also this channel animation channel are both extremely reformative content, right? I'm talking hours of
641:42
Speaker A
editing and hours of recording, right? And people involved. But guess what? Because there's an AI voice, even a small A voice. Like, oh, guess what happens here or something like that.
641:51
Speaker A
It's just like those simple things immediately get you flagged, right? And keep in mind, I'm not trying to fearmonger, right? I I got this like a couple of people started saying, "Hey, he's trying to fearonger to sell his SAS
642:03
Speaker A
company called Satura, right? If you guys know Satura, right? We actually removed the the the the AI um voices on Satura because we didn't want people to use this, right? So the AI voice generation here, we took this off
642:18
Speaker A
because if people start using this on mass scale, they will start getting banned as well, right? So I'm not trying to sell you a software. I have nothing to sell you in regards to anything rel related to AI voices or voice actors or
642:28
Speaker A
anything like that. Right? This is just serious information that I want you guys to know because if you guys get hit by this, right, because you're using AI voices, right? Then it'll hurt your channel, right? And a lot of you guys,
642:40
Speaker A
you don't have a lot of channels like I do. You just have one channel. Maybe you have three channels, but if those channels get hit, there goes all your revenue. Another thing as well is a lot of people are saying, "Well, that's not
642:52
Speaker A
true because I run an AI, you know, voice channel and when I'm running this channel, I'm getting like 400 to 500 million views a month and I'm fine." Well, guess what, bro? In December, right, when YouTube was hitting a lot of
643:03
Speaker A
people with mass terminations u in the Roblox niche because of call to actions, right? Roblox call to actions were getting a lot of people banned. Not everyone got banned, just like a lot of people were getting banned for using the
643:13
Speaker A
viral hashtags. Not everyone got banned. There was always going to be people who slip through the cracks, right? But I'm telling you guys, over a long enough time horizon, YouTube is moving in the direction to her personality, right?
643:24
Speaker A
YouTube recently bought some big AI production um like studios and then just killed them. They just killed them because they don't want AI to be spammed all over their platform because they want people. They want pillars of people. All right, YouTube wants pillars
643:39
Speaker A
of each individual niche has in each individual pillar of a creator. And this creator is, you know, the person that people look at. Another example of this is for example like this student. This is our most successful student right
643:49
Speaker A
now. He's up 80 grand this month and he's in the ranking niche, the most broad saturated niche. Guess what? He started this niche literally two months ago. And within the past 3 months that I've been working with him, he scaled up
644:00
Speaker A
so quickly. And you guys probably already know who he is because, you know, a lot of people in the Discord already have met him and stuff like that as well. He's already vouched me on Twitter, so you guys probably already
644:07
Speaker A
know who he is. But he's already already made over 120 grand. Actually more than this because he has a, you know, other deals and stuff for other platforms.
644:14
Speaker A
He's made over 120 grand just from our program alone because he took you know the idea of viewaxing which is you know my basically entire strategy you know running 35 channels generated billions of views that's how we're making so much
644:25
Speaker A
money and then also taking the personality brand putting these together is what made him this much money so if you guys want to go in the direction of automation with YouTube you have to automate a personality so think about
644:36
Speaker A
the personality you want to curate and then move toward that direction that's why commentary is so important especially voice actors because voice actors The way they talk, the way voice actors articulate their words, and the way humans speak, it's so much different
644:50
Speaker A
than AI, right? The way AI speak, it's predictable. Everything about AI is predictable. And guess what? The YouTube algorithm that detects if something is AI is also run by AI, right? So, it's able to detect that stuff. So, guys,
645:02
Speaker A
just think about that for a second. Okay? Anyways, guys, again, I am not trying to fear monger. I have no SAS to sell you. All right? I'm not trying to spread misinformation. I'm telling you guys exactly what I'm seeing across all
645:14
Speaker A
the channels we're running right now, across all the data points we're running right now. And guess what? This happened on Twitter yesterday. Animation channels getting hit with inauthentic content.
645:22
Speaker A
And guess what they all have in common? AI voices. Guys, switch to voice actors.
645:26
Speaker A
You're welcome. And one last thing. All right, if you guys do want to use AI voices, you can. All right, I'm not going to stop you from using AI voices, but guess what? If you just move your 11
645:37
Speaker A
laps to more instability, right, where it's a little bit more unstable, it talks a little bit weird, right? But I'm just warning you guys that a lot of channels are getting removed for AI voices. I'm not saying your channel
645:49
Speaker A
will. I'm not saying completely stop it, right? But I'm telling you guys the data and you can do whatever you want with that information that I'm giving you here. If you don't want to listen to me, fine. If you do want to listen to me and
645:59
Speaker A
you want to find voice actors or you want to buy a microphone and start really putting in effort into making your own voices for your content, that's great, too. But the point of the matter is these are the facts. This is exactly
646:09
Speaker A
what I'm seeing across all my stuff. But guess what? You know, I only have 250 channels that I have access to and data points. You know, maybe there are other people who have more access to data points, right? I don't want to be right.
646:19
Speaker A
I just want to make sure you guys are being careful and you guys don't mess anything up. Right now, something big is happening in the YouTube space. A lot of you guys have seen the inauthentic content or reused content, you know,
646:29
Speaker A
people getting banned for no reason. Animation channels, you know, very, very mass-produced channels, everyone just getting banned. And there's something bigger at play that's happening in the background that people don't seem to grasp the picture of. So, in this video,
646:42
Speaker A
I'm going to explain everything happening with the inauthentic content, why it's happening, and also solutions on how to fix this with actual actionable steps because a lot of you guys have seen these videos or seeing this going around, but don't really know
646:53
Speaker A
what to do, right? And I've done research cuz we're currently running 31 YouTube automated channels right now.
646:58
Speaker A
Originally, we were running 35, but guess what? Four of them got hit for intented content. So, I'm going to be explaining exactly what's going on, how to fix it, how we also won our appeals.
647:05
Speaker A
I'm going to go over the entire appeal process in this video as well. This is going to be a very juicy video. So, let's get into it. So, the first thing, if you guys have seen all over Twitter,
647:13
Speaker A
all over Reddit, everywhere, you guys have seen basically everyone getting hit with inauthentic content, right? If you look up inauthentic content on YouTube, this is just from three minutes ago, 10 minutes ago, 10 minutes ago. Like these are just all creators who were doing
647:24
Speaker A
this for multiple years just getting banned for no reason, right? Getting hit for inauthentic content. I'm going to go over why that happens in a second. And also you'll see like even like top um softwares like NextLab for example
647:34
Speaker A
tweeting about this saying that like you know YouTube's doing this on a mass scale. There's no reason why. And you know there's actually is a reason. So first you guys need to understand a couple things right this year in 2026
647:46
Speaker A
YouTube got 200 billion views per day. All right, just in the past couple of months, they've calculated 200 billion views per day.
647:55
Speaker A
This is a surplus of over 200%. Originally, it was 70 billion views per day around 3, four months ago. Right now, we're getting 200 billions of views a day. Right? So, why is this happening?
648:08
Speaker A
Right? Because right now, we are in a creator surplus. There are more people than ever trying to be creators and there's more content being distributed than ever before. And guess what? There are also so many viewers who are edging
648:21
Speaker A
and just grasping for content they want to get, right? But the problem is the amount of people producing content and the uniqueness of that content does not correlate, right? Which is why we're having so many people hit with
648:32
Speaker A
inauthentic content because so many people are making high quality content. But guess what? If everyone's making high quality content in the exact same niche about the exact same stuff, like you can only watch so many Zack D films
648:43
Speaker A
videos of what happens if you put everyone inside the entire Empire State Building, right? Because once you watch that video one time, you're not going to want to watch it again. And if 10 or 15 or 20 other animation channels all make
648:55
Speaker A
that same video, guess what happens? A lot of channels get banned. And there is a way to avoid this. All right? So, I've gone over in other videos before of my strategy of how I scale multiple channels, right? I use a strategy to
649:05
Speaker A
make $120,000 in January. For example, like here's one channel that's only up around $20,000 a month. You can see here, I can even change the currency right here. But you do Gondan shillings, it'll change. Go back to USD, right? But
649:18
Speaker A
you guys can see here that back in around December um to January, we were absolutely cooking. Um we were getting some crazy numbers. I'm talking like we had a $75,000 month on this channel, right? And I've done this for so many different
649:32
Speaker A
channels. we've helped scale so many different channels up. We have students that we've helped scale so many channels up. You can see here here are all the channels that we're working with and running right now. And also, if you
649:40
Speaker A
check out our Discord as well, we have so much different students that are just absolutely crushing it right now. Look at all these guys crushing it. Like for example, German, I mean, he's getting an insane amount of views across the five
649:51
Speaker A
different channels that we helped him scale up, right? So, we have a lot of experience with YouTube and understanding how YouTube works, right?
649:57
Speaker A
So, what exactly is happening? there's an increased amount of views and uploads um that are going around, right? Because we have two billion 200 billion views um a day of videos getting produced on YouTube shorts, but the amount of unique
650:10
Speaker A
content around it just isn't enough, right? So, over my past videos, I've gone over the strategy of replicate and reiterate. Look at your competitor, replicate what they're doing, and then reiterate later, right? And a lot of people are doing this, but they're not
650:20
Speaker A
reiterating. They're just replicating and replicating and replicating and replicating, and all of a sudden, they have to massproduce amount of content, right? And it's also important you guys understand how YouTube works out of business because remember YouTube is not
650:31
Speaker A
just a video sharing platform. It's also a business where they make money. So how does YouTube actually make money in the first place, right? So there's actually three or four different ways that YouTube makes money on the actual
650:43
Speaker A
YouTube shorts um page, right? They make money through advertisers or Google um advertisers spending money on the Google ads to basically make money there. So you have Google ads, right? And then we also have super chats where you can just
650:55
Speaker A
like basically super comment or super chat. No one really uses this feature. We also have subscriptions um where you basically can sub to your favorite creator and pay like a monthly fee. No one really uses this either if I'm share
651:05
Speaker A
with you. And then lastly we have affiliates, right? And affiliates are pretty awesome because you basically can have an ad already on the video. You click on it and then you get paid. And this is going to be really important
651:17
Speaker A
later in this video and going over the actual solution to get not hit with inauthentic content, right? So if you look at these things here, really these two don't really matter. Super chats and subscriptions don't really matter, right? But Google ads and affiliates are
651:30
Speaker A
the two main ways YouTube is really trying to push out um people to make money. And if you guys have noticed, anyone who has gone on YouTube Studio, you've probably seen a popup that's shown up saying like, "Hey, you should
651:40
Speaker A
try out our YouTube shop, right? You should try it out. Go and enable on your channel." And a lot of you guys probably clicked no, right? But this is actually an OP feature to staying in the program because guess what? If Google
651:50
Speaker A
advertisers are spending money on shorts, right? And we'll go over how this works and why Google advertisers actually been pulling back and people are spending money through affiliates and it takes YouTube no money to make money through affiliates and it takes
652:01
Speaker A
YouTube money to make money through Google ads. YouTube will push affiliates harder because they understand it's more sustainable. If they can get creators to do it and it converts, YouTube is going to make way more money doing this,
652:12
Speaker A
right? But right now it hasn't fully launched and people aren't you currently using this feature to the max capacity.
652:18
Speaker A
It's also currently only in the United States. If you want to, you can just switch your channel location to United States and you'll be able to do it that way. But regardless, let's talk about Google advertisements and how it works,
652:27
Speaker A
right? So YouTube Shorts is basically a giant pool, right? So if you imagine a giant pool of money and every single time a advertiser spends money in the YouTube short space, the pool basically expands a little bit or a lot depending
652:37
Speaker A
on the advertiser. If Nike spends a billion dollars in ads, the pool expands by a billion, right? But just because it expands by a billion does not mean it's distributed all equally, the advertiser is going to be served to the ads of
652:48
Speaker A
whatever viewer is going to be ideal for that advertisement, right? So, let's say, for example, I am Nike and I'm making, you know, an advertisement about buying soccer cleat, right? If I'm trying to buy um, you know, soccer
652:59
Speaker A
cleat, right? Um, you know, I'm probably going to push it to football edits, right? Edits that have soccer in them because guess what? those viewers are most likely going to convert higher on those videos. Now, the problem is there
653:11
Speaker A
are so many of the same soccer edits, right, that advertisers are probably basically testing this and when someone sees the same video twice, they just scroll away and their buying intent basically decreases. There was a study that shows that short form converts way
653:25
Speaker A
less than long form. I think short form has only around like a 2% conversion rate compared to long form that has a 15 to 40% conversion rate depending on the video. And I'm not joking, 15 to 40%.
653:38
Speaker A
Right? That's just what the data says. So the long form has obviously a much higher conversion rate than the short form, right? That's the first thing. The second thing you have to understand is advertisers will pull their money away
653:50
Speaker A
from the pool if they see that they are not making money from the advertisement.
653:54
Speaker A
And this is where it gets really important into understanding how the YouTube system and algorithm works, right? So if we are making money through, you know, uh, Google ads, which is the main way we make money through RPMs and all this stuff, getting paid
654:09
Speaker A
through views, right? Basically, we're hoping that people like Google advertisers are spending money on our videos and hoping we get a conversion.
654:16
Speaker A
Let's say we're making AI slop, right? You got to think about the viewer intent when they're watching these videos, right? When the viewers are watching these videos of AI slop, it's just basically something they consume ranking. It's something they just
654:28
Speaker A
consume and they keep scrolling. It's also been shown that nearly 40% of viewers that come from ranking channels, I'll give you some analytics in a second, but 40% of viewers that come from ranking channels usually come from the TV, right? If you guys do run a
654:42
Speaker A
ranking channel, look in your analytics. It's probably around 25 to 40% of your viewers come from the TV. Here, I'll give you an example right now. So, here is one of my top students. Keep in mind this is my student's channel, but before
654:53
Speaker A
he started working with me, he was making only around $20,000 a month. And you can see here after he started working with me, he started making around 8070 to $80,000 a month on one single YouTube channel, right? And yes,
655:05
Speaker A
it's crazy numbers, but this is what we do in our program, right? So, in the past 20 days, we've made $72,000. And basically, I took this long form channel that already had a brand around it, and we basically converted it to short form
655:16
Speaker A
ranking commentary. And if you look at the audience here, right, you can see the consistent increase. But if you actually look at where our viewers are watching from, you can see that TV is 43%. And keep in mind, this is a ranking
655:29
Speaker A
niche, right? And the RPMs for this channel is around 24 cents, right? So, it's pretty insane the amount of money you can make. And this is just an example of one of the students that we've helped scale. We've helped other
655:39
Speaker A
students scale to something like this before. One of our students also at a $75,000 month as well. Um, but regardless, understanding that people who are usually watching the slop content comes from TV will also help you understand that advertisers will not
655:52
Speaker A
want to spend money on those channels because guess what? TV has the lowest conversion rate of any device or any platform on the internet, right? If advertiser is spending 30 cents per thousand views and 40% of those,000 views, which is 400 views, coming from
656:07
Speaker A
TV, the advertiser ends up just losing money, right? And YouTube can't really do anything about this, right? There's nothing YouTube can really do other than saying, "Hey, you violated our terms of service. We're going to have to demonetize you, right?" And this is why
656:21
Speaker A
a lot of people are getting demonetized. Now, this is one example, right? The TV isn't one example. There's other examples where like, for example, there's one niche that's making the exact same videos over and over again.
656:32
Speaker A
There's one niche that's having the exact same background over and over again. When viewers see the same thing over and over again, their mind basically becomes blank and there's no actionable steps for them to buy, right?
656:40
Speaker A
Because if there's repeatable content, if there's TV on the screen, right? If there is content that basically has no money involved for the advertiser, YouTube is basically going to do this thing called a silent demonetization where they hit you with the inauthentic
656:54
Speaker A
content, right? Because if you look back, a lot of these guys, right, a lot of these guys who were complaining, saying they're getting banned, YouTube isn't giving a reason, right? Even read this right here, right? No specific explanation is given, just labeled as
657:05
Speaker A
inauthentic content, right? The actual reason is because YouTube's cutting their losses right now. YouTube's trying to find a way to stop advertisers from losing money because at the end of the day, YouTube is a business and they want
657:15
Speaker A
to make money. If they're losing money from these videos that are being uploaded, guess what? YouTube is burning cash and advertisers aren't getting money. And they then we'll have another ad apocalypse like 2017 where advertisers pulled back all of their
657:29
Speaker A
advertising budget and everything goes to zero. And YouTube doesn't want that, right? The reason why this is happening is because back in 2017, right? There was this thing called a YouTube ad apocalypse. And if you guys don't know
657:39
Speaker A
what the YouTube ad apocalypse is, basically advertisers on a mass scale were basically putting in lots of money into YouTube and they weren't seeing conversions. And also, the amount of content that was kind of getting pushed YouTube was so like much slop, it just
657:53
Speaker A
didn't convert for advertisers. So, they're like, "Screw this. I'm not putting money into YouTube." They pulled a billions of dollars out of the ad spend for um the YouTube creator program and YouTube was forced to make this policy change that's enacted today where
658:05
Speaker A
right now people are getting banned on mass scale. Now here's the important part. All right, some creators do have right good content, right? They have really reformative content. They have authentic animation content that spends hours and hours on Blender, right? So
658:18
Speaker A
why are these channels getting hit with inauthentic content? Well, there's two reasons, right? And we talked about a little bit earlier, but we need to understand as well. um where the actual views are coming from and the amount of
658:31
Speaker A
growth that YouTube has had. Right? So in 2025, YouTube was getting around 70 billion views per day on YouTube. Now fast forward 2026, they're getting around 200 billion views a day, right?
658:44
Speaker A
Look at that growth. That's nearly a 200% growth. All right? So because of that, right, YouTube is seeing it right now. There's so much views or sorry, so much videos that are going around and so much views are getting increase. The
658:57
Speaker A
amount of money that's going around isn't enough for the actual advertisers to make their money back because there's so much slap going around. So what does YouTube do? They go through a silent purge. They demonetize channels on a
659:08
Speaker A
mass scale. Why do you think no one's getting banned right now? You look at all these channels and everyone is still has their channels up, right? But they're basically just demonetizing everyone, right? And even if these guys are getting demonetized, people are
659:21
Speaker A
starting new channels and YouTube isn't really attacking them for it, right? Because in their policy, YouTube also says you if one of your channels gets demonetized, you can't start a new channel. And there's other ways to avoid this. Like for example, I have 30 uh,
659:32
Speaker A
you know, plus different channels running right now. I've gotten demonetized and banned lots of times, but if you make an LLC, you can basically just avoid it, right? But guess what, right? Right? A lot of these guys are just making accounts on the
659:41
Speaker A
exact same Gmail, another Gmail, connecting the same AdSense account, and their AdSense account isn't getting banned because there's three types of ways to get banned on YouTube. Right?
659:48
Speaker A
The three ways um or has three different terminations is one, a demonetization where you basically get demonetized. You lose the ability to make money on the individual video, right? The second way is basically getting your channel banned. Right? And channel banned is
660:05
Speaker A
basically when you basically lose access to upload on that specific channel. And the last thing is an AdSense termination. This is where they basically um hold um all of your money in your AdSense account. And this is the worst one to
660:19
Speaker A
get. So this is in order of best to worst case scenario. A lot of these guys are just facing number one, right? This is what's happening to mass majority of people. And some people are getting their AdSense withdrawn. And we'll go
660:29
Speaker A
over that a little bit later. I think it's a little bit scummy what YouTube's doing, but regardless, um a lot of people are getting demonetized and not banned. The reason why is because YouTube is trying to basically take out
660:39
Speaker A
all this AI slot that's going around right now because advertisers are not making money. And also there's so much content going around right now that there's just not enough or there's too much supply of it and there's the demand
660:49
Speaker A
is just already reached this max, right? When it goes over that, guess what? The views just start going down for everyone. And that's why the top dogs, the top sharks like me and my students are scaling so quickly and getting so
660:59
Speaker A
many views while everyone else is being left in a dust. That's why 30K view jail is a thing by the way, right? but because there's so much people creating such amazing content and not enough people making, you know, very very high
661:10
Speaker A
quality content. Um, so yeah, that's kind of the reason for all of this. So, let's say your channel has been hit with inauthentic or reused content and you want to basically win your appeal. I'm about to show you exactly how to
661:20
Speaker A
actually win it. I'm going go through an entire presentation one of my friends sent me and it actually ended up being very um informative and it helped me and a lot of my students out as well. It has
661:27
Speaker A
around an 80% success rate. I did this and I got three of my channels that you know actually won the appeal and I've sent this to many of my students and they've won as well. So let's get into
661:36
Speaker A
it right now. The first thing you need to understand is how the actual reuse and content policy works. Basically what you got to do in your appeal is read the dos and don'ts of the appeal. Right? So say hey my channel does all these things
661:46
Speaker A
that the that you know I'm supposed to be doing. It does not do any of the things that it says not to do. Right?
661:51
Speaker A
Another thing you guys need to understand is you have seven days to do the appeal. So even if you know you get to monetize let's say on the 10th right then that means on the 17th you can actually do the appeal and this is very
662:03
Speaker A
very important because you know YouTube holds funds right so if YouTube's holding funds let's say you get banned on the 15th you have seven days which means you know the 22nd you actually can get the appeal fully submitted on the
662:13
Speaker A
21st you can actually get paid from YouTube right so if you want to make sure you guarantee that payment if you get banned on the 15th do your appeal on the 22nd that way you can actually guarantee your money to come in just a
662:22
Speaker A
for sure way to actually make sure you get your money Another thing you guys need to understand as well is make sure in the seven days that you actually do have the option to do the appeal, you basically have the opportunity to change
662:32
Speaker A
your channel as you would like, right? If you have repetitive titles, you have repetitive videos, fix that stuff, delete some stuff, upload some things, change the things you need to change. So when YouTube reviews it, it's much more
662:42
Speaker A
likely to actually win, right? And I've seen a higher success rate of channels that I've changed rather than channels that I haven't changed, right? Just don't delete any videos. I'd recommend privating them, right? Okay, because when you delete videos, it flags
662:53
Speaker A
something in YouTube system as well. Now, another thing, do not yap. I see a lot of people basically just yapping and their stuff saying like 15 minute appeals and stuff. Like YouTube doesn't have time for that. 3 to 5 minutes max.
663:04
Speaker A
Make sure you're giving as much information as possible in 35 minutes. And I'll go over the script in a second.
663:08
Speaker A
Another thing is you need to do is use your webcam. If you don't have a webcam, you know, available, just get someone on Fiverr or get a friend to do it for you.
663:14
Speaker A
Just make sure the script is read properly in the 3 to 5 minute period.
663:18
Speaker A
But a webcam will also help increase your um chance of actually winning the appeal. Um lastly, guys, this is not an apology video. All right? Do not say, "I'm sorry." If you say I'm sorry, it'll flag something in your YouTube system
663:28
Speaker A
that basically says, "Hey, like this guy messed up. We know he was wrong. We're just going to deny it anyway." Right?
663:33
Speaker A
Pretend you're in court and the other guy on the other side is basically you just are all the time saying he's wrong, right? And that's YouTube. So say it's YouTube's fault. You know, YouTube messed up here. You guys messed up
663:42
Speaker A
because your algorithm is messing up right now. My channel is very formative. And do not say I'm sorry or apologize for anything in the video. Explain clearly and concisely why this matters to you. Basically explain it's unfair and you need to rightfully get your
663:55
Speaker A
channel back. Um guys, doing the guilt trip of like, hey, YouTube's my job and stuff like that. It doesn't really work.
664:00
Speaker A
Just tell them they're wrong. Tell them they're wrong because that's the most important part. All right. Make sure your video is also very well edited. If it's not well edited, you probably will not get back into the program. You need
664:09
Speaker A
to edit things. Have text on the screen. Don't do so many funny sound effects.
664:13
Speaker A
But, you know, remember sometimes when people are watching this, um, it'll actually end up getting pushed to people and then they'll laugh because watching the videos or it'll be easier for them to actually watch all the way through.
664:22
Speaker A
Remember, you're a video editor at the end of the day. As long as you are doing this appeal, you need to make sure it's high quality as possible. And here's the appeal script right here. I'm actually going to make it on a document form for
664:30
Speaker A
you guys right now so it's easier to see. But basically, you want to go into the appeal basically saying like, "Hey, I own this channel. I'm making this appeal to basically explain why, you know, this, you know, strike that I've
664:39
Speaker A
dealt with is basically not right." and then briefly explain your channel and proof of how you align with everything.
664:45
Speaker A
And then, you know, show them the entire editing process of the video. This is very important. Go through your entire editing process. If you have a team like I do, ask your editors to send the editing recording for you. I've done
664:54
Speaker A
this for multiple of my appeals because I don't edit anymore. I have teams who weren't in place for me because we run 30 plus channels. Of course, I don't edit. And then at the end, basically just say thank you for watching. A lot
665:03
Speaker A
of creators are getting hit with this right now. And I completely understand it's a misinformation on the YouTube side. It means a lot for you, you know, because I try to transfer my content as hard as possible. and I really
665:11
Speaker A
appreciate that giving the opportunity to make videos on YouTube. I hope this video can help everyone understand more what goes on behind the scenes on my channel. Have a good day. And this is how you do the appeal. I'm going to
665:20
Speaker A
leave this linked in the description. Um, so you guys can check it out for yourself. So, one problem that some people have been facing as well is their funds are basically being held on YouTube AdSense, right? And this is
665:29
Speaker A
basically the worst thing that can happen to you. And I do have a solution for it. But the thing you need to understand is when this happens, it's basically because you violated some type of, you know, terms of service. It is
665:38
Speaker A
basically just something YouTube does not really like, right? For example, like you've uploaded some type of content that's really against like very very sexual or something like that. And if you do something like that, guess what? Um, you guys probably will lose
665:49
Speaker A
your funds and you probably won't get it back. Now, something else you need to understand as well, right, is if you do end up losing, you know, the money that you end up, you know, making on your channel, um, there is a way to get it
666:01
Speaker A
back and that's talking to a YouTube rep. And, you know, in my program, I usually refer people, um, YouTube reps.
666:06
Speaker A
And when you have a YouTube rep, it basically has a way for you to basically to have an insider to basically be able to look at your channel, review it, and maybe, you know, let those um funds be
666:15
Speaker A
uh, you know, not withheld any further, get your channel, you know, unbanned, something like that. And if you look in our student success, we have like a whole playlist on our on our channel.
666:22
Speaker A
Um, you can see we have had multiple students that have joined our program, basically had a conversation with the YouTube rep to be able to actually save their channel from getting um, you know, completely just terminated. You know, we
666:35
Speaker A
have 16 students success stories, you know, publicly on our channel. If you want to check it out, you can check it out for yourself right now. Okay. Now, for the part you guys have all been waiting for, the solution to actually
666:43
Speaker A
fixing the inauthentic content. Let's say you've been hit with it. You know, first of all, how do you appeal it, right? And then also the solution of how do you fix it? How do you avoid getting hit in the first place? Right? So, if
666:52
Speaker A
you guys don't know, if you guys go to your YouTube studio right now, there is this feature on your YouTube studio called products, right? Or affiliate shopping. And I talked about this a little bit earlier inside of the video.
667:05
Speaker A
Basically, if you go to any different type of channel that you're running right now, right, and you look at any short, if you look in the description, you're going to be able to have this option called tag product. Now, keep in
667:14
Speaker A
mind this only works if your channel is in the United States. So, I recommend changing it to United States. If you're not able to, then you may have to start a new channel. Um, which is very, very unfortunate, but you know, this is the
667:24
Speaker A
only way to do this right now. Hopefully, they roll this out to more people as time goes on. But if you look in your description, you'll see this option called tag product. And this tag product basically allows you to add a
667:34
Speaker A
product to YouTube's um video, right? So, if you actually watch the video, um you know what's going to happen is there's actually going to be an option right here called affiliate where you click on it, you click a little
667:44
Speaker A
affiliate link, and then it takes you to wherever to buy whatever you want, right? So, what's awesome about this is remember, like I said in the beginning of this video, YouTube at the end of the day is a business and they're trying to
667:54
Speaker A
make money and they're not making money as much money as they would like to from short form because of all the data that's proven that short form content does not really convert as well as long form content. Now, a good way to, you
668:04
Speaker A
know, basically turn this around is having affiliates. And remember that of Tik Tok's revenue that they pull in every single month, 23% of that comes from Tik Tok shops. Keep it think about that. That's one/4 of their entire
668:14
Speaker A
platform revenue, which is a multibillion dollar company, just comes from their Tik Tok creator program for their Tik Tok shop, right? So, think about this. If YouTube implements this as well, and they have way more viewer base, I'm talking 200 billion views a
668:27
Speaker A
day, they can convert more of those people, guess what? They're going to end up making more money. And this is why it's so important for you guys to understand that YouTube is going in the direction toward becoming a shopping
668:38
Speaker A
platform, right? So, this means two things, right? Uh, one, we need to make sure that we are starting to make our content around brands, right? Branded content is very, very important. If we make our creating content around basically targeting people rather than
668:52
Speaker A
being a person, rather than just uploading junk, for example, the reason why ranking commentary, my top student, right, is making $72,000 a month is because this is something that's in demand right now for YouTube and there's not a lot of supply of, right? Everyone
669:05
Speaker A
wants to make the faceless content, no one wants to add the personality. And guess what? You can automate it really easily. Just add an AI, add personality to it, get a voice actor, and then bam, you got a personality on your channel,
669:14
Speaker A
right? This is what we do for a lot of our students. We get them on voice actors and then their views just shoot up, right? A lot of our students who are in our program, they'll see immediate results as soon as they start joining.
669:23
Speaker A
Like for example, like look at this. This is like instant growth after using voice actors. It's just absolutely absurd, right? So, if you guys want to, you know, grow, you need to start doing branded content. Branded content is so
669:35
Speaker A
important for scaling. And remember, you can do things like voice actors, uh, you know, making a person doing a PNG character or something like that because there's lots of money to be made there.
669:43
Speaker A
It's the future of YouTube. The other thing you guys need to understand is using the actual description for the affiliate links, right? Put it in every single video. If YouTube sees that people are actually buying from your thing, then it's going to be really easy
669:55
Speaker A
for you to stay in the program because you're just going to keep making money because remember, they're not actually demonetizing people because or they're partially demonetizing people because of replicated content. The other portion is just because they want to cut their
670:06
Speaker A
losses, right? It's handinand, right? And if you want to basically derisk yourself to not getting banned, basically just do put the affiliate link in in your your description. It'll help you from not getting banned, right?
670:16
Speaker A
These are the two ways and two solutions that I've seen that have worked across multiple channels, right? Why do you think we have a channel that is making $72,000 a month in our program right now and hasn't gotten hit for unauthentic
670:26
Speaker A
content? And keep in mind, if you look at the lifetime of this channel, it's nearly at a million dollars. a million, right? The channel hasn't gotten demonetized. Why do you think that is?
670:35
Speaker A
Because we know what we're doing, right? So, I'm sure you've heard of view jailing, where basically YouTube limits the amount of reach you get on a video because YouTube deems that it's not trustworthy enough to get pushed out or
670:47
Speaker A
it doesn't keep people on the platform long enough. This is usually known as like the 30,000 view jail or maybe the zero view jail or even, you know, a 100red or a million view jail. But this is completely different. I have two
670:58
Speaker A
example channels here that were previously getting millions of views per day that have been dropped to just a couple thousand views per hour. You can see the giant drop. I'm sure a couple of you guys have seen it already. This is
671:11
Speaker A
what I'm calling a viewbomb. It is so recent with YouTube's like algorithm. I think I'm one of the first people to talk about this. Um YouTube is basically viewbombing channels now. And first it came with, you know, YouTube was banning
671:23
Speaker A
channels because they were thinking some channels were not worthy to be in the program and then they would just straight up terminate other channels.
671:28
Speaker A
There was a whole thing about it. It was so big Moist Critical made a video on it talking about, you know, YouTube basically just banning a lot of creators out of nowhere. I think almost 8 million channels have gotten banned and it's
671:37
Speaker A
still an ongoing issue. And now YouTube's AI has a new issue where they're bombing channels like this or like this or even in our Discord server where people are just getting absolutely viewbombed like this right here. It just
671:51
Speaker A
keeps happening to creators and I have just noticed this keeps happening over and over again. So I want to take the time today to talk about it and an actual solution on what to do to actually fix it because there's a lot of
672:03
Speaker A
creators suffering from this viewbombing. It is absolutely absurd. But luckily I do have a solution today for you guys to temporarily and hopefully permanently fix this. And then also I'm going to drop some sauce about why this is happening. So, in order to
672:16
Speaker A
actually fix a problem, first we have to understand what causes the problem in the first place. So, YouTube's new AI that they recently released the past couple of months ago has basically been going haywire. You guys have seen it
672:28
Speaker A
with the banning and everything like that. But the reason why this AI is temporarily banning or I guess viewbombing specific channels is because they believe that the channels are actually viewing, right? So basically the AI bot is assuming that the channels
672:44
Speaker A
that are getting millions of views are botting. So the actual YouTube algorithm viewbombs this entire channel. Now what's awful about this is there's a lot of channels including my own that get views you know just organically of course and you will randomly get
673:00
Speaker A
viewbombed because YouTube's algorithm thinks that you're view botting. Now, the reason it thinks that channels are view botting is usually because a increase in substantial views over a very short period of time or a just a glitch in the actual algorithm itself.
673:15
Speaker A
There's actually not been a specific identification for this. I have noticed this is happening with faceless channels much more than face channels, which is going to go into our first solution in a second. But the main cause of this is
673:28
Speaker A
faceless channels that have low trust scores or did something wrong. So, for example, this video here had a very high trust score. Sorry, this channel here had a very tr high trust score. And you can see here, you know, we were making
673:41
Speaker A
like $67,000 a month on um this channel. This is actually one of my students channels and they randomly got a strike, right? When they got this strike, they basically instead of appealing the video, they actually deleted the video
673:57
Speaker A
instead. Rule number one, when you delete a video after you get a strike or a copyright claim or anything like that, when you delete a video, your trust score decreases because YouTube thinks you're hiding something. And guys, you
674:10
Speaker A
cannot hide a video from YouTube. YouTube owns the platform. It's impossible to hide a video from them.
674:16
Speaker A
So, you guys trying to hide these videos actually end up banning uh or sorry, viewbombing your video or your channel, which makes your trust score go down.
674:26
Speaker A
All right? And when your TR score was down, of course, you get suppressed. Now, if you get suppressed at this level, it's probably because it was actually a serious offense strike and before you appealed it, you took down
674:34
Speaker A
the video. And this basically just makes YouTube lose all, you know, trustworthiness with you and you'll get banned or shadowbanned. This is the first cause. The solution, do not take down a video that has been strike, copyright claimed, or anything like
674:48
Speaker A
that. All right? Don't delete the video. You can private the video. Do not delete it. You will ruin your trust score. All right? Now, if you want to fix this, what you can do is start uploading videos with your face on long form
675:01
Speaker A
content. So, we've actually tested this and uploading long form videos with your face starts rebuilding your trust score slowly. So, if you don't know what trust scores are, if you just go to my channel, you'll literally see this 1hour
675:12
Speaker A
video. It's like 1 hour long. It just explains everything with trust scores. But, it kind of goes into depth of everything you need to avoid when you are actually dealing with this problem.
675:20
Speaker A
Now, the other thing you need to understand about fixing this is face content is one good solution. Another good solution is actually going to your settings and turning off a specific feature called publish to subscriptions feed. So, for example, if you actually
675:33
Speaker A
went to your channel or whatever video you're about to upload, if you scroll down, it's going to be right underneath licensing right right here. It'll say publish to subscriptions feed. If you turn this off, what it'll allow it to do
675:45
Speaker A
is it'll publish to nonsubscribers. I've noticed a big issue a lot of these channels that are getting suppressed are having is these videos are only getting pushed to people who are subscribed to your channel, right? So, if you want to
675:57
Speaker A
basically negate that, we basically turn off the feature where it shows our video to subscribers and it gets a new audience. Now, this is also another way to jump start your channel. The third solution is also making sure you keep
676:09
Speaker A
uploading. A lot of people when they see a dip, they get scared and they stop uploading because they think they did something wrong, which is probably true, but don't stop uploading because this will actually decrease your trust score
676:17
Speaker A
further. Consistency builds trust with YouTube and it'll also just build um, you know, just more credibility with the algorithm. So, for example, like this channel right here, it's getting suppressed pretty hard right now, but I'm pretty sure in a couple days it will
676:32
Speaker A
pick back up. I've had a couple friends tell me the same thing that like, hey, their channel got suppressed and then they uploaded a couple days and within like eight days or so, they were able to get pushed back out. Another thing,
676:42
Speaker A
eight days. This is a very, very important metric for you guys to understand, right? This is actually 8 to 12 days is what I've seen from my testing. And keep in mind, this is an ongoing issue. So like these solutions
676:53
Speaker A
may not exactly help you how you would like, but it can definitely start you in the right direction to getting the help you need to push your channel. But this 8 to 12 days, this is called the test
677:03
Speaker A
and rebalance period. I talk about this in so many of my videos. YouTube takes around 8 to 12 days to go through a a TB period, a test and rebalance period.
677:12
Speaker A
What this does is it allows YouTube to gather enough information to determine if they should increase or decrease your trust score. So remember, if you already watched the 1hour video, you understand what trust scores are are. It's kind of
677:22
Speaker A
like a credit score, right? And as you guys know, every month your credit score either goes up or goes down, right? This is kind of like YouTube's updated version of their credit score, but it's for, you know, the YouTube trust score
677:33
Speaker A
itself. It takes 8 to 12 days for your, you know, trust score to update. There's no actual way to see the number your trust score is at. When you're making a software that kind of helps you see it,
677:42
Speaker A
but in general, you don't you don't need that. As long as you look all your analytics, you see everything is doing well, then your trust score is high. If you're getting suppressed, your trust score is low. All right? So, this is an
677:51
Speaker A
ongoing issue. I just wanted to bring this to a lot of people's attention. If you are suffering from this issue, comment down below and actually go and join our Discord and we can talk about this a little bit more because we're
678:00
Speaker A
helping students right now individually, you know, help um break out of this and just people in general in the Discord for free. We're just helping them break out of this. So um yeah, I recommend just really try to implement everything
678:10
Speaker A
I said here with the face videos um trying to upload consistently and making sure you turn up that, you know, setting with publish to subscription feed. It'll help. Also, the last solution sometimes it's just starting new channels, man. I
678:22
Speaker A
know it sucks, especially when you're making thousands of dollars and you randomly just get suppressed. YouTube's AI has been so stupid recently with all the banning and everything and it's been very difficult for us as creators to survive because of everything that's
678:36
Speaker A
happening right now, you know, with all the banning. It's scary, bro. Like, if you guys don't know, man, I run 36 channels. Like, I I run a buttload of channels and I have all of this underneath different LLC's and, you
678:46
Speaker A
know, different Gmails. Um, and it's very scary for me because if I lose one account, I'm probably going to lose five others. Um, and with YouTube's stupid AI banning, like I I make sure, dude, I have a very big team that goes behind me
678:58
Speaker A
and helps me make sure we pass the policy every time. And we've had a couple accounts getting terminated.
679:02
Speaker A
Luckily, these are underneath smaller LLC's, so I didn't actually lose that many channels with the entire process.
679:08
Speaker A
But I've had a couple channels that just, you know, have gotten just completely wrecked because, you know, uh we've just gotten terminated, you know, and it it's just it's very unfortunate.
679:17
Speaker A
It's it's very difficult for us because, you know, YouTube's AI has been so so gay recently, but you know, like for example, this channel, it got it got terminated and there was nothing we could do about it and there was nothing
679:27
Speaker A
we can do about it. just it's just gone the and there was no reason behind it, you know. Um now the best way you can do um I actually have a YouTube rep that helps reinstate a lot of my channels. So
679:38
Speaker A
like I've gotten banned other times and gotten reinstated because of him. Um but um you can also contact them on Twitter as well, see what's going on. Say, "Hey, am I, you know, my views are getting suppressed or something like that and I
679:48
Speaker A
believe this is a mistake. Can you please take a look at this?" I don't think they're probably going to help me too much, but you can definitely contact them and contact and support can also help as well. But um yeah, I mean those
679:57
Speaker A
are the main things you can do. Also, live streaming can help increase your reach as well. If you start live streaming temporarily, it could maybe boost your views up. Um but yeah, those are all the solutions I got for you
680:06
Speaker A
guys. I hope this is helpful, man. I mean, I know this like this video may seem a little bit like air, but at the same time, this is an ongoing uh problem. You know what I mean? So, there's not too many solutions. This is
680:16
Speaker A
what I've seen have worked for other YouTubers and it's kind of worked for me a little bit, right? It hasn't completely revived my channels, but a couple of my channels have gotten picked up just a little bit from the algorithm
680:25
Speaker A
from doing those changes.
