Short Description:

YouTube uses algorithms to make personalized recommendations based on users' preferences, previous views, subscriptions, and interactions with videos. Once in the recommendations, the video gets additional traffic and popularity. It's important that the content is in-demand and attracts viewers' attention, as well as adhering to a few key criteria.

How YouTube recommendations work:[one]

  1. Mobile and web platform: Recommendations are displayed on the homepage and on the right side of the screen when watching a video. It is important to note that they are different for the mobile version and desktop version of YouTube.
  2. Similar Videos: Recommended videos often show videos that are similar to ones the user has already watched or that are popular with viewers interested in similar topics.
  3. Video popularity: Videos with high popularity (lots of views, likes, comments) have a better chance of getting recommended, especially if the content is relevant and in demand.

Key factors for getting recommended:

  • Content quality: Videos should be interesting and relevant to current trends. This is important for the content itself as well as the design of the content (preview, title, description).
  • Number of views and interactions: A video that quickly gains views, likes and comments has a higher chance of getting recommended.
  • Video topic: The more popular the topic, the higher the likelihood of the video being featured in recommendations, especially if the video is about global trends.
  • Clickability (CTR): High video clickability (when users click on your video after it has appeared in recommendations or on the homepage) also promotes promotion.

Statistics and Dynamics:

  • First days: A video that gets a lot of clicks and views in the first few days can get into recommendations.
  • After a while: If the video continues to gather views, likes and comments, it will be promoted to a wider range of viewers.
  • Decline in popularity: Over time, a video's reach may decrease, especially if the content is no longer relevant or interesting to new viewers.

How to increase your chances of getting recommended:

1- Optimize your video: Pay attention to quality content, attractive previews, and accurate tags. This will help the video become more visible to viewers. 2. Utilizing ads: Attracting traffic through ads or active subscribers can increase the likelihood of getting featured in recommendations. 3. Keeping active: Interact with your audience regularly, respond to comments, motivate viewers to take action (like, subscribe, etc.). 4. Use promotion services: For accelerated growth, you can use platforms for scoring views, likes and subscribers, such as SMMFast. Thus, a combination of quality content, audience engagement, and keeping up with current trends is necessary to get into YouTube recommendations.
