Buying You Tube Views

Marketing

By Meredith Whipple Published 5 years ago 3 min read

Who hasn't dreamed of getting 1,000 new YouTube subscribers at one go? Or just start with 5000 views on your YouTube video? For pretty little money you can now buy YouTube views, subscribers and likes in many corners of the Internet. But does it really work? What do I have to consider when buying YouTube views? You will find out in this article.

Buying YouTube views is widespread. You can easily buy YouTube views, likes and subscriptions from different providers. But is that recommended? It depends on your expectations. And of course also from the selected provider. If you choose the wrong service provider, the deletion of your entire YouTube channel is not unlikely. There are definitely risks involved in buying a YouTube view. Nevertheless, buying YouTube views also offers advantages - unlike in many blog articles on the topic.

You can buy youtube views on every corner. After researching whether that would bring something or not, I decided to buy a few likes, views and subscribers on a test channel. I was curious and also questioned the whole YouTube concept. Because let's be honest: clicks are actually an indicator of the quality of the videos?! At least I thought so.

The (apparent) advantages of purchased YouTube views

The providers advertise with many great advantages that the view purchase offers:

∙ Appear more recognized & more popular

∙ Boost your credibility

∙ Improve your brand image

∙ Achieve the trust of new visitors

∙ Increase your sales & sales figures

∙ Look as popular as your competitors (they also buy views)

∙ Trigger a domino effect, which will lead to even more views in the future

∙ 100% secure, protected & confidential

If you now think that the views you bought on YouTube would really watch your video and possibly (in the case of product videos) also buy your products, you are wrong. Regardless of whether the YouTube views are carried out by bots or by real users - there is really no interest in the content. So you will not get more products or subscribers or likes just if you buy YouTube views.

In general, you can forget all the advantages that the providers advertise with. I also found most of the providers dubious. But more on that below. So you should only look at the purchased YouTube views as a boost to the numbers of your video for real users. The clicks bought (subscribers and likes) don't really care about your video.

The only advantages of buying YouTube views are:

Higher trust through more clicks (and definitely percentage likes)

Man is a herd animal. You probably know that from yourself. A video with 2 million clicks is more likely to be clicked than a video with 50 clicks. What is recognized and popular cannot be bad or wrong. So your viewers don't see a video with 50 views and are therefore critically adjusted but (apparently) watch a video that 5000 people have already seen before. That pretends popularity and relevance .

Better search results

YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world. Those who rank well here will get attention. The search algorithm is constantly being refined. Keywords no longer play a major role in YouTube searches. The so-called watch time is crucial. How long has the user watched the respective video? The longer the user has watched the video, the more relevant it has to be. So if you have bought YouTube views and also get a good amount of watch time (not of course with every provider), you will rank better in the search engine. This can help to drive top dogs from first place faster. But be careful: Your video must of course also contain good content, otherwise it was quickly back to first place.
