With what?
Well, long story (fairly) short:
The way YouTube operates nowadays, not even our subscribers get all of the videos we make recommended to them by YouTube. We need to perform better, according to YouTube, to be "rewarded" with being recommended more to people.
We need our videos to be watched to survive. And for our videos to be watched, people first of all need to be shown that they exist.
Now, the only two things YouTube cares about performance wise are "view time" and "click rates". View time (quite obviously) means for how long people watch a video after clicking on it, and our view time is above average on all videos.
But - people also have to feel curious or interested enough to actually click on a video in order to watch it. That's what click rates are: the percentage of people who click on our videos when they come across them. This is where we perform poorly, below average.
So, we need to increase our click-friendliness, and that means making our thumbnail pictures and video titles more attractive to people. This isn't us wanting to create cheap "clickbait", it's us wanting to get our videos the reach and attention they deserve. And more importantly, we have to in order to survive.
This is where you - our trusted TimeGhost Army members - come in.
Because we need to learn what people find intriguing enough to do that click, and we want to pick your brains and hear your opinions on just that.
Below you have three options for the title of the War Against Humanity 041 episode we just posted here. We'd like for you to have a look at them and try to honestly assess which one you believe is most "click-friendly".
Which one would spark your interest enough to click on the video, especially if you weren't already following WW2 Weekly or War Against Humanity.
If you want to, you're also very welcome to tell us in the comments why or why not any of these titles would make you click the video.
We value your input on this greatly, Thank You!
For those of you who want to learn more about all of this, here is a really interesting and eye-opening video on the subject called Clickbait is Unreasonably Effective
