[0:00] YouTube just released a brand new shorts
[0:01] algorithm that completely changes
[0:03] everything because now they're using AI
[0:04] in order to actually monitor your
[0:06] content to determine whether or not they
[0:07] should push it out. They change the
[0:09] [music] settings that you need to make
[0:10] sure are turned on and so much more. And
[0:11] if you simply adapt to the changes that
[0:13] I share with you in this video, it's
[0:14] easier than ever before for you to be
[0:16] able to get subscribers on YouTube. In
[0:17] fact, I just helped this creator, this
[0:19] creator, and this creator get over
[0:21] 100,000 subscribers on YouTube by simply
[0:23] implementing what I'm going to share
[0:24] with you. Change number one that YouTube
[0:26] has now implemented is now they're using
[0:28] Gemini to actually watch your content
[0:30] before they ever upload it. And
[0:31] essentially the way that this works is
[0:33] that Gemini is a multimodal model. If
[0:35] you don't know what Gemini is, it's
[0:36] basically YouTube's version of ChatGPT
[0:39] or Google's version of ChatGPT. And
[0:40] Google owns YouTube. So now what they're
[0:42] doing is they're running your content
[0:44] through that before your content ever
[0:45] gets posted. And what they're looking
[0:47] for is alignment on three things. First
[0:49] and foremost, they want to make sure
[0:51] that whatever you're creating content
[0:52] about, you are actually showing in the
[0:54] video. For example, if I was making
[0:55] content about an iPhone, I'd want to
[0:58] make sure that I actually show an
[0:59] iPhone. And you need to make sure that
[1:01] you're doing this in the beginning of
[1:02] your content. In fact, the first three
[1:04] to five seconds is really where they're
[1:05] looking for whether or not you're
[1:06] showing whatever you're actually
[1:08] telling. In addition to that, they want
[1:09] to make sure that the text that you have
[1:11] on the screen, which yes, their AI model
[1:13] can also see, matches the text that
[1:16] they're going to find in the title of
[1:17] your video, in the description of your
[1:19] video, in the subtitles of your video,
[1:21] and in the tags of your video. And then
[1:23] the other thing that they're looking for
[1:24] is they want to make sure that your
[1:25] content isn't just a carbon copy of
[1:28] somebody else's content because if
[1:29] you're not providing people information
[1:31] on a topic, well, guess what? Your
[1:33] content isn't going to get pushed out.
[1:35] What I'm saying is that you need to make
[1:36] sure that you can still create content
[1:39] about topics that are popular in your
[1:40] niche or topics that are outliers or
[1:42] that are trending in your niche. But you
[1:43] need to make sure that whatever you're
[1:45] actually saying about that topic is
[1:47] going to be something that's new because
[1:49] otherwise YouTube's going to say, "Hey,
[1:51] we have 100,000 people interested in
[1:53] this, but they've already seen this
[1:54] information. So if they get shown this
[1:56] information again, they're going to get
[1:57] bored, they're not going to watch us,
[1:59] and then they'll just stop pushing out
[2:00] your content." This brings me to change
[2:02] number two, which is kind of
[2:03] piggybacking on that point. And that is
[2:05] that you can't just upload content that
[2:07] already exists on YouTube now. So you
[2:09] can't repost content, you can't take
[2:11] somebody else's content, and you can't
[2:13] just take somebody's content and change
[2:15] the script a little bit. You need to
[2:16] make sure that you're actually giving
[2:18] YouTube new information. And I actually
[2:21] have a really easy way for you to be
[2:22] able to do this by leveraging AI. Check
[2:25] this out. So, let's say for argument's
[2:27] sake that I wanted to recreate this
[2:28] video right here about the five best
[2:30] online business ideas for 2026. What I
[2:32] would do is I would come over to ChatGPT
[2:34] right here, or you could use Claude or
[2:36] any other AI that you want, and you
[2:38] could say, "I want to create a YouTube
[2:41] video on this topic." And then you're
[2:43] going to put in the title right here,
[2:45] and we're going to say, "But I want to
[2:47] include completely different
[2:50] information." And then what you're going
[2:52] to do is you're going to get the
[2:53] transcript of this video. You're going
[2:55] to put this in here and say, "I want you
[2:57] to give me different information than
[2:59] other people have thought of." Or what
[3:00] you could do is just say, "I want you to
[3:03] give me five things that aren't popular,
[3:06] but would appeal to a very large
[3:10] audience." Now, what this is going to do
[3:12] is this is going to give you other
[3:13] things that aren't going to be things
[3:15] that are really popular. For example, AI
[3:18] inbox manager, it literally goes through
[3:19] everything that you could do here.
[3:21] Personal AI setup, goes through
[3:23] everything that you could do here. And
[3:24] basically, you want to use AI in order
[3:27] to be able to uncover things that other
[3:28] people haven't spoken about on YouTube.
[3:30] Because if you're just copying what
[3:31] other people have already spoken about
[3:33] on YouTube, it's going to increase the
[3:34] odds that YouTube actually flags your
[3:35] content and says, "Hey, this isn't
[3:37] original content. We're not going to
[3:39] push this out because we already have
[3:40] two creators, three creators, 10
[3:42] creators that have said the same exact
[3:44] thing." That's what you're trying to
[3:45] prevent, especially as YouTube rolls out
[3:47] more and more of their AI systems that
[3:49] are going to be detecting these things
[3:51] and are going to be blocking content
[3:52] that is low quality.
[3:54] Change number three is you need to make
[3:56] sure that you're not only relying on
[3:58] YouTube to push out your content because
[4:00] there's so many other ways for you to
[4:01] actually push out your YouTube channel.
[4:03] And guess what? None of these really
[4:04] require doing that which work. But I do
[4:07] want to warn you, there's a right way to
[4:08] do this, and there is a wrong way to do
[4:10] this. So I want to show you the wrong
[4:12] way, I want to show you the right way,
[4:13] and then I want to show you how I'd
[4:14] actually do this.
[4:16] Okay, so the wrong way for you to
[4:17] promote your YouTube channel is doing
[4:19] what Dr. Jones is doing right here. We
[4:20] could see it has youtube.drjonesdc.
[4:22] This is at the end of his description.
[4:24] This isn't really helping. The other way
[4:26] that would be the wrong way to promote
[4:28] your YouTube channel is if you put a
[4:29] link to a YouTube video in your bio, or
[4:32] if you just put your YouTube channel in
[4:33] your bio. Instead, you want to do what
[4:35] this creator does right here. If we come
[4:37] over into their content, for example,
[4:39] this video right here, we could see in
[4:41] their description they have this right
[4:43] here. "Start at the start here playlist
[4:45] on my YouTube channel, or go to the 100%
[4:49] free course." And then we could see
[4:50] right here, "Search baddie and business
[4:52] torrent." So actually, if we grab this
[4:54] right here, and we come over to YouTube
[4:57] and we do a search for this, here's the
[4:58] experience that we're going to have.
[5:00] When we do this, we're going to see a
[5:02] bunch of their viral videos. We could
[5:04] see that they recently dropped this
[5:05] video. We could click on their channel.
[5:07] We could come over into their playlists,
[5:09] and we could see that they have all
[5:10] these playlists about how to get
[5:11] started, and a ton of people are
[5:13] actually coming to these. In fact,
[5:14] playlists on YouTube don't get a lot of
[5:16] views unless you drive people there. We
[5:18] could see this right here, 14 people
[5:20] every single hour are coming over here
[5:22] and watching this. I know that that
[5:24] doesn't sound like a lot. But if we
[5:25] actually click into this playlist right
[5:27] here, we could see that all of these
[5:29] videos are going viral. And more
[5:31] importantly than going viral, I bet that
[5:33] all of these videos are making this
[5:34] creator a ton of money because she is
[5:37] actually directing people to a very
[5:38] specific place instead of just saying
[5:41] type in my YouTube channel. Because what
[5:43] if other people made content under that
[5:44] or something along the lines of that,
[5:46] they might not actually go to your
[5:48] specific channel. And you want to make
[5:50] sure that they're searching for it, not
[5:51] just going in and trying to find your
[5:53] channel because they might not be able
[5:54] to find it. Now, if you want to make
[5:56] doing this as easy as humanly possible,
[5:58] I would strongly suggest that you use
[6:00] Metricool because Metricool's going to
[6:01] allow you to publish your content to
[6:04] YouTube shorts, Instagram, to Facebook,
[6:06] to TikTok, to almost every single social
[6:07] media platform you could think of, all
[6:09] from one click. On top of that, they're
[6:11] the only platform I've ever used that
[6:13] doesn't actually decrease your views
[6:15] when you schedule out your content. And
[6:17] if you go to the pinned comment below
[6:18] right now, you could get 30 days free
[6:20] access to any of Metricool's premium
[6:21] plans with code Robert. In addition to
[6:24] letting you schedule out content and put
[6:26] content across all these different
[6:27] platforms, they also make it incredibly
[6:29] easy for you to be able to figure out
[6:30] exactly what's trending in your niche,
[6:32] and you could respond to all your
[6:34] comments and all your DMs from all these
[6:35] different platforms from one place, so
[6:37] you never miss a message that your
[6:39] audience sends you. So what are you
[6:40] waiting for? If you want to grow faster
[6:42] on YouTube while spending less time
[6:43] creating content, I would strongly
[6:45] suggest you go to the pinned comment
[6:46] below and get started with Metricool
[6:48] today. Again, use code Robert for 30
[6:50] days free access to any of their premium
[6:52] plans.
[6:53] Now, change number four is you need to
[6:54] make sure that you stop YouTube from
[6:56] auto dubbing your content into any
[6:58] languages that are destroying your
[6:59] views. And I can pretty much guarantee
[7:01] you that this is probably happening on
[7:03] your channel, so you need to make sure
[7:04] that you stop everything right now, see
[7:06] what I'm about to show you, then look
[7:08] into this for yourself. Okay, so in
[7:10] order to actually figure this out, you
[7:11] want to come over into your analytics.
[7:13] From here, you want to click on advanced
[7:15] mode. You're now going to come over into
[7:17] breakdown right here. You're going to
[7:18] click on geography, and this is going to
[7:20] show you who is actually watching your
[7:22] content the most right here. So if we
[7:24] come over here, we could see average
[7:26] view duration 46 seconds. Now, this is
[7:28] including both long-form content and
[7:30] shorts, which is why it's showing so
[7:31] low. But we could see right here that
[7:33] the United States watches my content for
[7:35] 59 seconds. India watches my content for
[7:38] 30 seconds. The Philippines, 38 seconds.
[7:41] And if we scroll down a little bit, we
[7:42] could also see that some other countries
[7:44] are really poor like Nepal or
[7:47] Bangladesh. And I'm not saying poor
[7:48] monetarily, I'm saying poor in terms of
[7:50] watch time. So if we actually come over
[7:52] here, what we're going to notice is if
[7:54] we come over into one of my videos, for
[7:56] example, this video right here, and we
[7:58] come over into languages, we could see
[8:00] right here that we have all of these
[8:03] different audios that my content is
[8:04] being published in Arabic, it's being
[8:06] published in Dutch, it's being published
[8:08] in French, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian. So
[8:12] what I want to make sure that I do is
[8:14] actually want to look at those analytics
[8:15] and see if there are any countries that
[8:17] are really holding things back. Because
[8:19] the last thing that you want to do is
[8:20] have one of these languages turned on.
[8:22] In fact, you could literally just come
[8:23] over here and unpublish it or delete it,
[8:25] and it will stop YouTube from serving
[8:27] content to those people. Because what
[8:29] you don't want to happen is for YouTube
[8:30] to be showing your content to a specific
[8:33] language, it lower your average view
[8:35] duration or lower your click-through
[8:37] rate, and then as a result, YouTube
[8:38] thinks that your video wasn't good, and
[8:40] they stop pushing it out. That is the
[8:42] last thing that you want to happen. So
[8:44] please make sure that you're going
[8:45] through, you're fixing these, and you're
[8:47] adjusting these. Because if you're not,
[8:48] this could silently be holding your
[8:50] content back, and I see this happening
[8:52] to so many people's channels. Change
[8:54] number five is that thumbnails on
[8:55] YouTube are quietly becoming the most
[8:57] important part of you getting views on
[8:59] YouTube. Because here's the deal. In the
[9:00] past, the main thing that required you
[9:03] to get views from a YouTube short was
[9:05] one, that people watch your video past
[9:07] the first three seconds, aka they didn't
[9:09] swipe away, and two, that your average
[9:11] view duration was high. But now we have
[9:13] a problem because YouTube shorts are now
[9:15] getting shown in Google search results,
[9:17] they're getting shown in Gemini, inside
[9:19] of ChatGPT, on the homepage, inside of
[9:22] search. And now guess what? This
[9:24] introduces a new metric that YouTube
[9:26] needs to care about because before
[9:28] somebody ever gets a chance to swipe
[9:30] away from your video or they ever get a
[9:32] chance to watch your video all the way
[9:34] through, they're now going to have to
[9:35] click on your video, which silently made
[9:37] YouTube thumbnails more important than
[9:39] ever before. So I want to show you a few
[9:41] examples of how you can do this
[9:43] correctly. Now, the first example of
[9:45] this that I want to show you is actually
[9:46] going to be looking up something like
[9:48] how to upload a YouTube thumbnail. So we
[9:49] could see right here that all these
[9:50] videos have done pretty well, but this
[9:52] one right here has a custom thumbnail.
[9:54] And look at it, it got 1.4 million
[9:56] views, which is quite frankly almost
[9:58] more views than every single other video
[10:00] here. Reason for that is because they
[10:01] put text here that says how to change
[10:03] your YouTube Shorts thumbnail and they
[10:05] circled it in bright green. That
[10:07] captures people's attention and it makes
[10:09] them think, "Hey, I need to click on
[10:10] this." Now, if we come over here and
[10:12] type in something like YouTube settings,
[10:14] we could see something very similar
[10:15] here. This video right here crushed it.
[10:17] It's actually my video that got 3.3
[10:19] million views because I did the same
[10:20] thing. I pointed with my finger. I have
[10:23] bright red text. This creator right here
[10:25] did something similar, but they're just
[10:26] showing their laptop. And this one right
[10:28] here has Mr. Beast, which is why it did
[10:30] well. And this one right here also
[10:32] pointing their finger, it just wasn't as
[10:34] bright, so you could see that these
[10:36] different types of formats that capture
[10:37] people's attention do lead to people
[10:39] getting more views. And if we come over
[10:41] here, we could see the same thing with
[10:43] squats right here. We have a squat
[10:44] checklist right here. Captures people's
[10:46] attention. We have this woman. Looks
[10:48] like she's not actually squatting
[10:50] correctly and green check mark, which
[10:52] captures people's attention. And then
[10:53] fix your squat mistakes also has this
[10:55] red. So, you can see that the creators
[10:57] that are getting the most views are
[10:59] choosing a very specific frame inside of
[11:02] their content. They're adding in very
[11:04] bright colors. And this is all capturing
[11:06] people's attention to increase the odds
[11:08] that people click on the video. As a
[11:09] result, they watch your video and the
[11:11] YouTube algorithm pushes out your
[11:12] content more. Now, if you enjoyed this
[11:14] video and you don't still have your
[11:16] first 1,000 subscribers on YouTube, I
[11:18] would strongly suggest you check out
[11:19] this video right here that walks you
[11:21] through how you could get 1,000
[11:22] subscribers on YouTube in 24 hours or
[11:24] less. That sounds interesting. I'll see
[11:26] you over there.
