I'm from Arkansas, and I have trouble spelling "receive" LOL

English spelling makes next to no sense — you literally have to memorize how every word is spelled — which is why most English speakers misspell words at such a high rate. You ain't bad at spelling, the system is just broken.

At one point in time, every English word was pronounced how it's spelled, but there have been so many sound changes since they were put to paper (such as the great vowel shift), and since we borrowed so many words from other languages: we've ended up with more than one set of rules.

The key to improving the ranking of your website is an on-page and off-page online strategy. Let me explain How its works

Site Submitting

if you have high-quality backlinks and submit the website to various web directories and article directories, the page rank can be increased.

Web and article directories are as follows:

Dmoz

Yahoo directory

Best of the v

Ezine Articles

Article base

Go to article

Google search console

High-Quality Content

Unique quality content that is interesting for readers. Search engine ranking and site traffic primarily depend on the quality content that is strategically created for targeted users. This helps improve the authority and relevance of the site. Dwell time affects SEO ranking. If one provides useful content, then the visitor stays on the website longer to consume the information, therefore, increasing the resident time.

Adding more value to the product by adding more keywords, adding more outbound links, and creating longer content will definitely help people get you to read and spend more time. Also, if visitors will bookmark your content on Chrome, it will boost your Google ranking.

Keep Updating Your content

If someone regularly creates specific content and posts, Google really likes it and Google will crawl the site and can get more possibilities to increase page rank. Regularly updated content is seen as the best indicator of the relevance of the site so always keep it fresh.

Link Exchange

Link exchange is the oldest technique and can get good page rank from it and will get traffic to your site. Authorities can link it to sites to make the content more useful and worthy so that more in-depth information can be used for readers. Linking to well-respected sites and even a single site will increase relevancy and page ranking. Broken links reduce the same. The following are some tools to check for broken links:

Screaming Frog SEO Spider

Google webmaster tools

W3C Link Checker

SEO

SEO is the only factor that improves the ranking of your website in search engines. SEO is a very complex program and you need to be effective in optimizing every element of web page and website.

Website Accessibility

One should always maintain the reach of the website because Google can reduce the ranking of the site if the website is down for a long time. Using commonly searched keywords

Social Bookmarking

Social bookmarking is a very effective method because by sharing the site on social sites one can get free backlinks and traffic.

Submit your post on

Facebook

Tweeter

quora

Instagram

Page load speed

When looking at website ranking algorithms, both Bing and Google take into account page loading speed. If the user leaves your page, it takes a long time to load. No user intends to lose time processing pages. They just leave the page. SEO ranking is affected by increasing your ranking rate and reducing the number of pages viewed.

To increase page load speed, try using caching plug-ins, make sure the code is clean and streamlined, optimizing image sizes, reduce the number of plug-ins, and of course, with minimal redirect avoidance Come for

Image optimization

On the SEO front, it ensures that the images are working efficiently, apart from just the image file format and size.

Give the search engines a hint by using keywords for your image filename, alt tag, title, description, and caption to bring uniformity and relevance to your content.

Use short Url

Url matters a lot in website ranking google show the research which have short URL so try to use short URL for your post

Any embedded video hosted on YouTube will count as a view when that video is played, with a few exceptions.

Embedded Video Views That Don’t Count There are a few sources of views that don’t count, and a few things that will disqualify a view from counting:

Views from an embedded video set to autoplay may or may not count. This has varied over the years, and there are many conflicting reports available. In general, however, a video set to play automatically is an annoyance that drives users away. Allow them to load the video on their own terms; don’t force it on them.
Views from the creator of the content typically count, to a limited degree. YouTube has no way of knowing, for example, whether you’re showing the video to other people on your computer or not. However, refreshing the page dozens of times to inflate the view count will cause those views to not count.
Repeated views from the same user over a short period of time typically don’t count. Repeat views are legitimate in some cases — typically music videos and tutorials — but they often take place in a single session. If the user is reloading the page each time they view the embedded video, they’re probably trying to game the system, and their repeat views won’t count.
Views from known spam IPs or the IPs of known view sellers. It’s possible to go to a site like Fiverr and purchase hundreds of views, but those views do nothing for you. They may count, temporarily, but when YouTube audits your view count, they will disappear.
Views from robots. A search engine crawler – or a robot designed to earn more views – isn’t going to trigger the code that counts a view. If it does, that view will likely be removed. Views from sites where the embed code is broken. If the embedded video is loading partially and the user refreshes several times trying to get it to work, those views don’t count. The video has to load cleanly and completely for a view to count.

Earning More Legitimate Views

Views are important to ranking on YouTube itself, and a high ranking on YouTube will make your video more visible in Google search results, if those results include YouTube videos. So it’s a good idea to try to increase YouTube views. Here are some things you can do that will help:

Optimize your videos. Apply SEO techniques to the title and description of the video. Make sure your description links to your website. Add video tags that describe the video and your industry. Create and upload a transcript of the video.
Create compelling video content. You need to have a video worth watching if you want users to watch it.
Encourage users to explore your channel. Do this with video endcaps and by creating playlists to load the next video in a series after the first one is done. When using text links, link to the playlist rather than the video, even if the video in question is the start of the playlist.
Interact with users on the site. YouTube is a social media site, after all. YouTube has cleaned up comments in recent years, so it’s easier to engage with active, valuable fans and easier to demote and ignore spammers and trolls.

So, embed your videos on your website and link to them on Facebook and Pinterest. Don’t forget to share them on other social networks whenever relevant. In general, do what you can to put your videos in front of as many people as possible.

Elsevier has declared a war against Sci-Hub and open science. It has been revealed that the FBI has wiretapped Alexandra Elbakyan, Sci-Hub's founder, for over 2 years. Twitter has already suspended the official sci-hub account because Indian academics were organizing on it against Elsevier.

We cannot allow Elsevier and other publishing bodies to limit access to knowledge by imposing extortionate fees for academic papers on universities and researchers.

Help us preserve Sci-Hub's 77TB of scientific articles by seeding a few of their torrents. More information can be found in the reddit thread.

Some trivia about Elsevier

In 2011, Elsevier supported the Research Works Act (RWA), a bill that would have made illegal the NIH Public Access Policy, along with any other similar government effort to make taxpayer-funded research openly accessible to the public.
Elsevier’s author copyright agreement includes language requiring authors to waive open access policies on their campuses

The firm operates on almost 40% profit margin for providing scientific articles. Source

The firm offered a $25 (£15) Amazon voucher to academics who contributed to the textbook Clinical Psychology if they would go on Amazon and Barnes & Noble (a large US books retailer) and give it five stars. Source

Is Elsevier really for science? Or just for profit?

Don't sweat it. I'm also terrible with correspondences. I have 724 messages from 2.5 years that I mean to get to, and about as many emails that I never check.

Larry is taking so long with whatever it is he's doing with my server and I got tired of waiting for my MediaWiki that I started this the other day: /s/Cassy/wiki/index and drafted this: /s/Cassy/wiki/progresslog_2021-05-11 which he nor the others haven't gotten back to me about. I wanted to check with them first for stuff I may have missed and I didn't want to take the liberty of overstepping my bounds by speaking for them. I'm starting to feel like herding cats is not the best way to do things, but if we want Full Spectrum Decentralization (another term I came up with recently that I have yet to fully explain and share) the it means we must try to include and accommodate everyone, but not in a commie way.

I'm almost of the mind that I need to just barge ahead and let the other guys just speak up if/when they don't agree.

Saidit itself appears to be going down too, with people simply withdrawing from the censorship and erratic behaviors by the admins.

Sorry for such a delayed reply. I've been commenting like this since 2005 when I chose reddit out of three contenders for my 'main internet site'. Was reddit, stumbleupon, and one I don't remember. But the commenting environment seems to be crashing, and my patience is growing thin. Saidit itself appears to be going down too, with people simply withdrawing from the censorship and erratic behaviors by the admins.

With the government now planning to fund communist witch hunts for internet wrong thinkers - who they refer to as domestic terrorists - this may be the moment to to stop offering them data they could characterize as incriminating. But that's more secondary to the sites themselves becoming untenable, which is leading me to some days not go on the internet at all. And it feels nice to be completely out of the loop on some of this bullshit.

I wanted to regain some balance, grow a garden, build some things around here, and be self-sufficient and autonomous. Maybe even at fucking 50 to try to find a lady again.

Sounds worthwhile. The balance especially. Doesn't mean you have to go out and associate with maskers and vaxxers, but just keep a toe or two in the waters of real life. And btw, 50 is pretty young. At least you'll know anyone interested isn't after your money, and your organs are probably too old to be worth much on the medical black market! See, there are positives in any situation! But seriously, the gardening and balance should remain a part of your life.

Garydivine · 2021-05-13T16:38:10+00:00

To get people to watch multiple videos in a playlist, that means you have to organize your playlists a little bit differently.

You have to give them really good titles. Like title these playlists the same way that you would title a video. Make it enticing. Pitching value, tease a story.
Write the description for your playlists, as well, something many people overlook. And just like you would write the description for a YouTube video itself, same principles apply for writing descriptions for playlists. That is, keep your keywords in mind that apply to that playlist, but write them out in normal conversational English, pitching value, teasing what’s in the playlist itself, so that people feel like, ooh I want to watch this entire playlist.
Pick a strong thumbnail for that playlist. Now you do that by picking one of the videos that’s in that playlist to be the representative thumbnail for that full playlist. So again, just like you would do with a video, pick a good thumbnail for that playlist that complements the title very well.
Place your strongest video first in the playlist. And the reason for this is that most people when they start a playlist, they start with that number one video. So to keep them watching through the whole playlist, that first one needs to be the best video that sets the context, that hooks people, and keeps them watching the rest. Whenever you feature this playlist as an interactive card or as an end screen element on your videos, or someplace like that, that first video will be the one that plays for them first.
Keep your playlists short. And it makes sense, if you think about it, from the perspective of how do we get people to into playlist mode are watching more videos. If they see there’s 200 videos in that playlist, they’re probably like I ain’t got time for this. And they probably won’t even start. But there’s like a manageable number of playlists, like if the videos are long– maybe there’s five, six, seven, eight videos in there– or if the videos are shorter, maybe you have somewhere like up to 10 videos in a playlist. That’s way more manageable and people are more likely to start and watch through all the videos in that playlist if they are more manageable like that.

/f/ for the win

But even there we just post old swfs to have a nice group nostalgia masturbation session. Flash was the best thing to ever happen to the internet.

people are making counterintuitive designs for web pages, instead of keeping it simple. Beautiful websites can be made from nothing and they can be made very light. But then again, if it does not flex on others and shows how many gigabytes of javascript you have written, it is useless from the perspective of the site owner. I like websites that look friendly and despise those that are designed to make you feel small. I am talking about Facebook, Instagram et al. I am browsing on a 21 inch full HD monitor and all you give me is 3 huge bloated buttons that don't do much and every website function works in exactly the opposite way you expect it to, and the page itself has little content and very little information density.

Contrast this to websites like saidit, forums and imageboards. The design is simple and functional, the buttons and links are small and scattered but somehow you always find exactly what you were looking for and works in a way you expect. the actual content is plenty and you can skim through information worth a hundred Facebook pages in just 2 or 3 pages. This helps because half the content is bullshit which you don't care about anyway.

This person is kinda right but also kinda wrong. I think Peak Web has passed when we entered the 2010s, about over the point of the hill of 2012 to be specific. What we accomplished in feats for the web, has pretty much dried up. Social Media is running in place now and it has been for a while. In fact, there's nothing new you can do it on now than you could in the time period this blog post picked.

Because in 2006, you had messenger programs, on the go. You had your MySpace, Facebook was a thing too. You could already surf the web on your phone then. Sure, I'll accept the argument that things got increasingly better over time as newer devices came out, standards got more ironed out and vice versa. Which makes me re-route to the year I think we peaked, in 2012. Nothing from that point could really get any better. Things instead, just took questionable detours based on the idea of "we shouldn't do this...but we're gonna anyways".

Oh and the browsers of today? Pffft, they're a joke. Firefox is desperately trying to shove in it's own tools and now it's own VPN, but do nothing about it's performance issues that have stemmed from 3.0. While Google has been doing quite a job, dismantling everything that once made them great to use at a time and has become nothing but a brand anymore.

But to give myself some credit, I don't give a shit about Chipit and don't spend much time thinking about him. I already wrote him off long ago and simply consider him only a danger to simpler minds and occasional visitors on SaidIt.

I was thinking that myself. I had assumed /u/Tom_Bombadil was still standoffish at me for the drama I caused exposing M7. Tom was thinking that I was could be a long-con disruption agent of some kind. Anything's possible I suppose. Perhaps M7 is a limited hangout, a LEO who's got a few dozen truth-seekers addict-trapped in his forum that he's determined not to improve. Anything's possible. Too much effort for so little payoff doesn't make sense in either scenario. It'd be cheaper and easier to hire a hitman to take out the leaders and non-anons like me.

It could also be that Tom is gardening more or something in the good weather. Maybe he's doing better with his resources than I am.

would seem to be particularly unprofitable.

Destroying the economy would seem to be particularly unprofitable. Yet they're doing it on purpose.

We all do better when we all do better. But the ruling class never wants that. They want it all to themselves. So, we all do worse when we all do worse - except for them. They print money and bail themselves and their friends out.

It's going to get worse too.

JasonCarswell · 2021-05-06T05:56:46+00:00

Yes, I'm always interested in good ideas.

There are people with worse problems than I have - and that may be my future, especially if I can't get out of this rut. But this rut is stable. For now. My first 25 years I was young and in school. After that I was an animator, senior animator, supervisor, and finally director. Then Big Pharma poisoned me for a decade. I've been beyond hell and back - and lost much of my life, yet remain alive, now 50. I've now had a few years where I might have been able to get a shitty job here in Windsor, where my family brought me when down. Windsor is not my kind of town and it took everything I had to escape it before. There is no work much less heart and soul for me in this banal suburban nightmare. I'd rather be downtown in a big city or in the woods. Regardless, here I am, stable, on disability, finally with ambition again, but without means and with a much shorter future. Plus folks don't see potential in a 50 year old "bum", much less one who's a "professional" truth-seeker and skeptic. I never could and I never will never be able to bite my tongue in any work environment, much less any that exploits me even a little. I'm not out to fight or burn bridges, and even try to avoid that, though it happened on occasion. I've never been too timid to quit or be fired. All that has has it's pros and cons on my career and life.

So I've seen the darkest depths of apathy and despair, but I'm back and motivated and ambitious - but extremely limited. I had limits before but there was more elbow room. I was even able to go to Burning Man every year which was not cheap, but I always managed to scrounge up a few thousand to make it happen. These days I can't even scrounge up a few hundred (no one properly values art much less commercial art around here). That's why I need to finish my "Why I'm Quitting SaidIt" series and focus on finishing my epic screenplay that I'll storyboard/illustrate and publish as a new kind of graphic novel. We're setting up a new server for my sites (a new forum, wiki, PeerTube, etc). There I can present my many options and hopefully the SaidIt community can weigh in and help me determine my destiny. All this sounds great - but it's all taking much longer than I'd like, as things usually do. But the worst part of it is that it's all computer stuff. I wanted to regain some balance, grow a garden, build some things around here, and be self-sufficient and autonomous. Maybe even at fucking 50 to try to find a lady again. But the real world around here has problems, including my new landlord and Judas neighbour, not to mention lockdown, shrinkflation, etc. It seems like my only choice is to escape into my computer life - if only just to get some footing and funding to reemerge into real life, which won't be getting any better under Agenda 2030.

I don't feel good about it but I also don't feel guilty about taking government money for the disability that I don't really have anymore. They were the ones who fucked me in the first place. They certainly aren't paying me much to live on, so it's certainly not a scam I'm pulling as the conservative media would have everyone believe - and the left media who want to promote UBI are selling folks a trap. You won't find a single homeless person who planned to be that way when they were young. Same thing with UBI / disability.

Your theory could be valid. I don't know much about the internet propaganda industry. Used to have a call center in SF back in the old days. We paid the workers a minimum wage, with some compensation for each successful sale. It was a pretty marginal lot though.

We made 50 bucks per sale, with a 30%+ success rate from the lists we were getting. I'm not immediately seeing a source of profit from paying people to back up comment bots on the internet (reddit, faceberg, etc) unless it's more about political propaganda. Paying someone to post on saidit would seem to be particularly unprofitable.

Node · 2021-05-06T01:54:15+00:00

Well, I can't because I've diversified onto so many other sites. I would be making tens of thousands daily if I were still in my long gone consulting business. But it's all just killing time now.

Socks could actually be one of those bot/human partnerships. There's definitely a human there some of the time, but other times it's exactly like it's a bot posting.

Yesterday I bought bunch of groceries. Now I'm fucked for this month. I wanted to get a used circular saw and/or a used air conditioner and/or a new hard drive as I need all desperately. Being so profoundly limited I'm faced with, again, seriously rethinking my strategy for my life and path forward.

Interested in any ideas to potentially help mitigate this situation? I've had some high and some low life experiences, and may or may not know of some coping strategies you haven't thought of. It does sound like you're kind of in a rough spot. No guarantees, of course. Maybe I'd come up with nothing. Maybe something you could use.

I just assumed they were minimum wage workers.

JasonCarswell · 2021-05-05T17:07:27+00:00

You blew my mind this morning. It makes many of our semi-nonsensical "conversations" make more sense.

I wonder if they know that because they are semi-nonsensical they piss people off more? Is there a threshold where people just check out and don't bother with them? Is there a fine line where you can string people along for a while yet also piss them off? Makes me wonder.

LarrySwinger2 · 2021-05-05T16:55:39+00:00

I agree. There are times when you'll want to give him the benefit of the doubt. But when I analyze his post history at a random moment, he seems like a bot, and that's telling.

JasonCarswell · 2021-05-05T12:04:45+00:00

How can he have time to spend all day everyday posting links on saidit?

LOL. This applies to some of us humans too. (And subhuman shills like socks also.)

Email Marketing

Sending out regular newsletters and promoting offers through email is a great way to stay in touch with your customers and can also help to get traffic to your website. Provide useful information and links to pages on your website where they can learn more, such as through blog posts and landing pages for particular offers. Just make sure that you don`t continually bombard your readers with emails or your customers will either disengage with, delete, or unsubscribe from your emails.

Also, put careful thought into your email subject lines. These heavily influence whether or not a user opens your email. If your emails never get opened, they can’t supply traffic to your site!

Online Directories

Another way to increase traffic to your website is to get listed in free online directories and review sites. For most of these sites, your profile will have a link to your website, so actively updating these listings and getting positive reviews is likely to result in more website traffic. In addition, many directories like Yelp have strong domain authority on Google. There’s a chance that your business’s free Yelp page could rank high for relevant searches.

Build Backlinks

A backlink is a link to your website from another website. Backlinks from complementary businesses or industry influencers will not only get your business in front of a larger audience, but it will also drive qualified traffic to your website. In addition, Google picks up on backlinks and will increase its trust in your business if it sees other trusted sites pointing to yours. More trust from Google leads to higher rankings, which leads to more traffic. Get noticed on Google for free with quality backlinks.

Social Media

Social media is one of the most popular free marketing tools around and plays a role in driving traffic to your website. Use Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn to promote blog posts and other useful pages on your website. This way you can turn your social media audience into website visitors, and draw traffic from their networks if you post shareable content.

Creating useful content is free, and is not as hard as it may seem. You are the expert in your product/service; your job is to simplify it for your audience.

Include Hashtags

By adding hashtags to posts that promote your website pages and blog posts, you can extend your reach beyond your network and get discovered by users searching for your products and services. The more eyes on your links, the more free traffic you’re getting to your website.

Use Landing Pages

Landing pages are another free source of the traffic to your website. These are pages specific to your offers, such as for redeeming a discount code, downloading a free guide, or starting a free trial. They contain the details users need in order to move forward and convert, and focus on one specific call to action, making it more likely to happen. Because landing pages are so specific, you can get very targeted in your messaging, increasing the traffic coming to those pages.

Guest Blog

Having an industry influencer publish a blog post on your site or turning an interview with them into a blog post can help to drive traffic both through organic search but also via that influencer promoting the content to their audience (see the backlinks section above). This can also help to add more variety to your content and show your visitors that you are active in your field.

Alternatively, you could ask the influencer to mention your business in their own review or round-up post. This method is still free, but you still need the collaboration with the influencer to be an exchange with mutual benefit.

You can also be a guest blogger. Identify complementary businesses in your area whose audience is relevant to your business. See if you can contribute a post to their blog with a link back to your website. Make sure your content is relevant and useful to their audience so that it’s more of an even exchange.

Engage Online

It’s free to be active in online groups and on websites that are relevant to your business and community—and it helps you to obtain more traffic. Comment on blogs and social media posts, answer questions people are posting and participate in conversations about your industry. The more you engage with your community, the more exposure and profile visits you get.

If your social media profiles contain a link to your website, then you’ve turned your engagement into another channel for website traffic. Just be sure to engage moderately and in a sincere way, and avoid including links to your website in your comments—lest you appear spammy and hurt your online and business reputation. Increased traffic should not be the goal of your engagement, but rather a secondary result.

Getting more website visitors does not happen overnight. By using Google My Business and the other safe and quality traffic sources, you can get the right visitors coming to your site and more importantly, more of those visitors converting into customers. If you have a newly created website then you can consider buying website traffic from a reputed service provider like Simpletraffic.co. They increase the traffic by promoting your content on social and online platforms. In this way, you save some time and effort.

Node · 2021-05-04T03:21:16+00:00

One of the theories on what's happening there is bots doing the grunt work, with teams of humans backing them up. Similar to robo calls, where the human only steps in once a live one is on the hook.

Are some of the shills, such as Chipit, actually bots?

How can he have time to spend all day everyday posting links on saidit? The human/bot hybrid theory makes a lot of sense, both to explain what's happening, and from an efficiency and effectiveness perspective.

FuckMasks · 2021-05-04T03:00:36+00:00

No, but similar. It's going to drive me crazy now.

cm18 · 2021-05-04T02:59:13+00:00

Really need trusted link and comment sharing where you match links and comments to known human counterparts.

LarrySwinger2 · 2021-05-03T21:59:01+00:00

It's a scary thought. Does the immediate link clicking reveal them to be bots, though? It could be that the shills have scripts in place that do automated posting, while it's still primarily a human that makes the comments. It could be that they use software that simply clicks links for analytical purposes.

To what degree do you guys think this is going on here? Are some of the shills, such as Chipit, actually bots? I'm looking at his comments a little bit. He resorts to personal attacks, and refrains from refuting anything. His comments are very similar to each other, especially the personal attacks he makes. And when he gets called out for anything, he never defends himself properly. His commenting really is of a level that AIs must be capable of.

Comments are more telling than posts, but we can infer things from posts as well. Chipit is guilty of voatification, posting headlines that this site's userbase would welcome, but it's always the most polarizing stuff, and he makes it more polarizing on top of that through deceptive titles. Here's a recent example. Unto itself, the title seems to follow his trend of first giving the actual title of an article he's linking to, and then giving a short summary. When you click it, you discover that it's just a short entertainment video that invites you to laugh at a protester, instead of having actual content. The title isn't an appropriate description at all. So where does it come from? It turns out to be assembled from the video title, the first line of its description, and a random comment to the video, all concatenated. Who comes up with that idea? It really is bot-like behavior.

I've posted another example 5 months ago here.

It's starting to make sense to me. Why would adversaries pay people to comment on sites like these full time when they can just pay devs once to write and train AIs to do then do it for free?

Node · 2021-05-03T21:57:09+00:00

Not the best title,

It was an impulse post after seeing that elsewhere. I agree that they will at some point, as this kind of technology is the inevitable result once you enter the race to advance beyond humanity. At first it will just be the masses controlled and manipulated by AI, but it won't stop until the machines rule our species.

Rethinking your strategy can be a good move. Maybe you'll still come up with your current strategy, or maybe you'll find ways to improve.

My Trillion Dollar Idea is about an anit-corporate, anti-consumerist, cooperative decentralized advertising/marketing network where everyone (site hosts, platforms, products, services, advertisers, cryptocurrencies, mining, rewards, voting, audience, demographics, etc) has a say in the system and what platforms, topics, etc. they wish to see - and how much. I have yet to actually draft it all up but I've been thinking about this for a year. People want info about stuff, including products, services, markets, etc. I'd guess that most people aren't against ads so much as want better ads and data under their own customized control.

JasonCarswell · 2021-05-03T13:20:11+00:00

/s/DecentralizeAllThings - ALL things
/s/Decentralize4Dummies - how to for everyone
/s/FLOSS - Free Libré Open-Source Software
/s/PhoenixForum - next-gen forum
/s/ResistanceAnalysis - resist as hard, as long, as much as possible
/s/Rights - government only takes away rights
/s/Solutions - we know the problems, prioritize fixes
/s/Voluntarism - aka few rules but no rulers

What have I overlooked?

The STABs (shills, trolls, and bots) are not winning yet - but they will. Unless we organize our resistances adequately in a timely manner. The powers that be will never stop and they have UNLIMITED FUNDING as they literally and virtually print money.

Use tags!

You should tag your videos appropriately. That's how people find your stuff on Youtube as well. Add relevant tags.

I've read from somewhere that you're not suppose to put tags in the video descriptions. I guess that's why Youtube have dedicated text boxes for tags.

Share your videos on other social media sites

If you have other social media sites, you can also share the video at those sites so that your video reaches more people. You can also use the same brand name, profile picture on other social media sites to create a consistent identity. And add links or embed your video to your social media sites so that people can check out your other sites.

Collaborate with other influencer

This will get you new views and subscribers. You can collaborate with other influencers and use cross-promotion to grown both channels! Look for related channels to collaborate with though.

Post Great Thumbnails

They may seem like a small thing (because they are), but thumbnails can have a big impact. YouTube advertises other videos via thumbnail in its sidebar, so you want yours to stand out among the pack. The same goes for YouTube search. Videos with a catchy title and appealing thumbnail usually rank higher, even if the content itself isn’t as valuable, because they have a higher click-through-rate (CTR). To get your CTR where it needs to be, try using tactics such as highlighted areas, arrows, large text, and unexpected or unusual images.

Leverage YouTube Cards

YouTube rewards channels that keep viewers on their pages longer. These longer average watch times mean people are truly engaged with your content. (You can see how long people are staying on your videos by using YouTube analytics). By adding YouTube cards, you can add additional recommended videos at the exact point where users are currently dropping off. Though they may abandon that video, users will be taken to your other content and stay on your channel, increasing your channel’s ranking.

Increase Your Uploading Frequency

This tip may sound intimidating at first, but to grow your audience, you need to increase your posting frequency to at least one video a week. Consistency is of the utmost importance. Try to post at the same time each day or week (depending on your frequency), and keep your subscribers updated about when new videos will arrive. Then stick to your schedule.
