[0:00] You're about to watch one of the most
[0:01] advanced YouTube automation courses on
[0:03] the internet. My name is Romero and I've
[0:05] been running Faceless YouTube channels
[0:06] since 2018. And since then, I've gotten
[0:08] hundreds of millions of views and I've
[0:10] made over $2 million in just YouTube ad
[0:13] revenue. In the next hour, you're going
[0:14] to see a handful of videos from my
[0:16] private school community. And the whole
[0:18] point of this is to see how many
[0:19] subscribers I get for giving out a lot
[0:22] of information as opposed to giving out
[0:23] some information and, you know, kind of
[0:25] plugging in my school community. Uh, I
[0:27] want to do the opposite now. I want to
[0:28] hit 200,000 subscribers. So, don't
[0:30] worry. There's literally no gatekeeping
[0:32] in this video. Just sit back, take
[0:33] notes, and hopefully you find
[0:35] information that makes you subscribe.
[0:36] All right, let's get started.
[0:40] So, the YouTube algorithm just had its
[0:42] biggest change ever. Well, kind of
[0:44] because it wasn't done on YouTube. Like,
[0:46] this isn't a an update that YouTube is
[0:48] going to go out and, you know, tell you
[0:49] guys that changed. This is more on the
[0:50] back end of Gemini, and it was more of a
[0:53] developer update as opposed to like a
[0:55] creator update. Uh, so that's why you're
[0:57] probably not going to hear anything
[0:58] about it. Now, the way the old algorithm
[1:00] worked, you posted a video with high
[1:02] click-through rate, which was clickbait,
[1:03] or, you know, just a good thumbnail and
[1:05] title. And then it would get clicks.
[1:07] From there, the algorithm would decide
[1:09] based on average view duration if it was
[1:11] going to continue pushing it, which if
[1:12] you had high CTR, high AVD, you would
[1:15] obviously get more of a push. And then
[1:16] this cycle would repeat until the end of
[1:18] the video cycle. And of course, tags and
[1:21] descriptions and keyword stuffing would
[1:23] make this the meta and just, you know,
[1:24] make it 10 times more powerful. But with
[1:26] this came the spam channels, the AI
[1:28] channels, the rewriting scripts, taking
[1:30] people's content and just rewarding it.
[1:32] There was a lot of duplicates. There was
[1:34] people exploiting this. And essentially,
[1:36] the system no longer worked because of
[1:37] fake spam and abuse. So, Google's idea
[1:40] was to uh involve Gemini. So, every time
[1:42] you post a video, Gemini reads the
[1:44] description, the transcript of your
[1:46] video, and the SEO. And from here, it
[1:48] decides if it gets flagged or if it gets
[1:49] approved. Now, in the beginning of
[1:51] January 2026, literally a few days ago,
[1:54] Google updated Gemini. And what this
[1:55] does is that now it gave Gemini the
[1:57] ability to reason. Meaning that it can
[2:00] see exactly what you search for on
[2:01] Google, on Google Drive, on Google Docs,
[2:04] Gmail, uh, and YouTube. So, this is what
[2:06] the meaning of of reasoning is. It can
[2:08] now see everything that you do across
[2:10] all of the Google platforms. Um, and
[2:12] it's kind of like Facebook. It's kind of
[2:14] more like targeted ads. So, a video is
[2:16] no longer based on just the keywords,
[2:18] the the metadata, and all that, right?
[2:20] Because now Gemini can reason if it's a
[2:23] video to recommend. And what it goes
[2:25] based off of is called semantic ID. This
[2:28] is the biggest change to Google's
[2:30] algorithm overall. What a semantic ID is
[2:33] is when you upload a video, Gemini now
[2:35] sees the editing speed of your video,
[2:37] the colors you use, the volume, the
[2:40] energy, and more specifically the
[2:41] intention behind the words that you are
[2:43] using in your script. So when Google
[2:45] analyzes this, it gives it a semantic
[2:47] ID, which is, you know, a high energy
[2:49] video. Let's say it's a gaming video,
[2:50] it's a male voice, it's a chaotic edit.
[2:53] And this is like the perfect
[2:54] description. It's a code for your vibe,
[2:57] the vibe of your video, the energy of
[2:59] it. So, this is one of the most advanced
[3:01] ways that the algorithm now recommends
[3:03] content. So, let's say a user is on
[3:05] Google and they're searching Minecraft
[3:06] or Fortnite. So, Gemini from here is
[3:08] assuming that the person is in the mood
[3:10] to watch content with high energy,
[3:11] right? Obviously, gaming focused cuz
[3:13] it's it's it's gaming videos, but you
[3:15] know that that that stereotypical
[3:17] YouTuber that's yelling into the mic and
[3:19] you know, very very excited. Typical
[3:20] gaming channel. So Google tells Gemini,
[3:23] "Hey, they're searching Minecraft and
[3:24] Fortnite. What's the next logical thing
[3:26] that this person wants to watch? What
[3:28] what are they in the mood for at this
[3:30] current moment?" So Gemini understands
[3:31] that the person wants to watch high
[3:33] energy content, gaming content. That is
[3:35] their mood. That is their vibe. And it
[3:37] starts thinking of two options. Does it
[3:39] recommend you a gaming video with high
[3:41] energy? Or does it recommend you a
[3:43] gaming video that is storytelling and
[3:45] slow pace? You know, the answer is
[3:46] pretty obvious. it's going to recommend
[3:48] the video with high energy and high pace
[3:50] because if you're watching Fortnite and
[3:52] Minecraft videos, typically it's very
[3:54] high energy YouTubers, but if the user
[3:56] was googling content about Red Dead
[3:58] Redemption, which if you don't know,
[3:59] it's a very storydriven uh video game.
[4:01] It would then choose the slowpaced story
[4:04] to recommend, right? Because it matches
[4:05] the tempo and the vibe that the person
[4:07] is feeling. It's no longer about just
[4:09] the topic. So, this is what makes the
[4:11] win emotion-wise. It's the fast rapid
[4:13] cuts, the high dopamine state. audio is
[4:16] loud and shouting matches intensity
[4:18] sentiment competitive and high stakes
[4:19] and you know it recommends the Fortnite
[4:21] video based on that it is the energy
[4:23] signature the true semantic ID now
[4:26] that's for entertainment videos like
[4:28] gaming right this is for people that are
[4:29] trying to make um you know very
[4:31] emotional videos but for us you know the
[4:33] information niche that is the celebrity
[4:35] news that is all of the niches that we
[4:37] do the algorithm sees it different it
[4:39] doesn't just go off of energy because
[4:41] that's not a fair meter so different
[4:43] goals equals different match matching
[4:45] which is no longer mood match it is now
[4:47] niche match. So Google has a knowledge
[4:49] graph right and every topic has its own
[4:52] web which is called nodes. For example
[4:54] Elon Musk the name Elon Musk on Google
[4:57] has this specific code here M03_D0.
[5:02] A node would be Tesla M07Z_3S.
[5:06] Another node would be Neurolink. Another
[5:09] one would be Mars. Another one would be
[5:10] SpaceX. Now what Google sees is not
[5:13] specifically SpaceX. They see this code
[5:15] and this code represents SpaceX across
[5:18] all of Google. So the idea now is to hit
[5:21] every single node on the topic of your
[5:23] video. So our video script for semantic
[5:26] seating would be in today's video about
[5:28] Elon Musk. There's one. We'll dive into
[5:30] the latest news with Tesla Cybertruck.
[5:33] There's two. The progress of SpaceX's
[5:35] Starships. That is three. The future of
[5:37] Neurolink brain chips. That's uh node
[5:40] number four. and the ultimate goal of
[5:41] colonizing Mars. That is the fifth node
[5:44] that is hit. So when you hit the nodes,
[5:46] you increase the authority of your video
[5:48] because you cover absolutely everything
[5:50] in Google's knowledge graph. 99.9% of
[5:52] YouTubers do not know this. The only
[5:54] people that know this is like Google
[5:56] engineers and back-end algorithm people,
[5:58] right? But when it comes to creators and
[5:59] when it comes to YouTubers, we're
[6:01] focused on like, oh, high AVD retention,
[6:04] how long people watch. Nobody is
[6:06] thinking of Google's knowledge graph and
[6:08] hitting every single node. This one here
[6:10] is the most important one, the
[6:12] originality one, because Google is now
[6:15] going based off of net information gain,
[6:18] which is uh the main purpose of of this
[6:21] update, I believe. So, when you post a
[6:22] video, um, and if you've been around for
[6:24] a while, you know that you're going to
[6:25] have probably like 20 clones, someone
[6:27] that rewrites your script and reposts
[6:29] it. This is uh the sea of sameness,
[6:32] commodity content. So, if you recreate
[6:35] someone's video, you're just going to be
[6:36] added to this huge sea of replicated
[6:39] content that Gemini says, "I've seen it
[6:42] before. I have this in my knowledge
[6:43] graph." What Google wants from you is
[6:45] for you to give it new information.
[6:47] Either that's personal, either that is
[6:49] focusing your video on something very
[6:52] specific, which is micro niching, or by
[6:54] approaching it with a contrarian point
[6:56] of view. So, your video's total info
[6:59] cannot be in the existing Google
[7:01] knowledge base. So if you say something
[7:03] original or if you approach something in
[7:05] in an original way, you add net
[7:08] information gain, something that Google
[7:10] has never seen before. So when you post
[7:12] a video, Gemini starts seeing, okay, I'm
[7:14] going to rank this video against the top
[7:16] 10 and I'm going to see if there is
[7:19] enough new information that I uh that I
[7:22] can see. So are you adding to the pile
[7:24] or are you changing it? Are you
[7:26] approaching it in a different way? And
[7:27] if you are approaching something in an
[7:29] original and different way, uh you get
[7:31] rewarded for that. Which is why the
[7:33] originality score is so important. And
[7:34] not only that, if you make a script and
[7:36] you get an originality score of a 10 out
[7:39] of 10 and you hit every single semantic
[7:42] ID of that topic, Google is going to see
[7:45] your video as high authority and it's
[7:47] going to understand absolutely
[7:49] everything about your script. By the
[7:50] way, this whole time we were [ __ ] up
[7:52] with our scripts. And the perfect
[7:53] example was that uh Gen Z consumer
[7:56] behavior. Logically, we would think,
[7:57] okay, by saying young woman, you would
[8:00] assume that Google understood that you
[8:02] were talking about Gen Z. But no, you
[8:04] have to verbally say it. So the goal is
[8:06] now to create a what we call delta,
[8:09] which is essentially your unique value.
[8:11] For example, if you were to make a video
[8:13] about weight loss, Google's knowledge
[8:15] graph already has exercise, diet,
[8:17] calories, metabolism, right? every every
[8:19] single video about weight loss has those
[8:21] four key points. But if you want to hit
[8:23] that net information game, you would
[8:25] talk about brown fat activation and then
[8:28] with the semantic ID code here at the
[8:30] bottom, that would be new data for
[8:32] Google, a new approach. So you can do
[8:34] this with information, right? And if you
[8:36] want to know if Google has something in
[8:38] their knowledge graph, it's going to
[8:39] tell you right here in the originality
[8:41] score. And and also you could go with
[8:42] the easy one, which is the contrarian.
[8:44] You know, say the opposite of what
[8:46] everyone says. If someone says, "Oh, I
[8:48] like Starbucks coffee because it's
[8:49] better than, you know, [ __ ] Dunkin
[8:51] Donuts." You're going to say, "Actually,
[8:52] no. Dunkin Donuts is better." That's a
[8:55] hypothetical, right? That would give you
[8:56] the contrarian aspect, which also in
[8:58] itself is a new opinion that Google can
[9:01] can essentially store. And also very
[9:03] important for you to note, we are the
[9:05] first ones that know about this. Nobody
[9:07] else, no other YouTube community, no
[9:09] other Google community is going to tell
[9:10] you about this. And I'm probably not
[9:12] going to post it on YouTube yet cuz I
[9:14] know the comments are going to be filled
[9:15] with a bunch of bunch of dumb asses that
[9:17] are going to be like um um that's not
[9:19] true. YouTube didn't announce it. All
[9:21] you need to do is just make highquality
[9:23] content. You know that [ __ ] It's
[9:25] like no. You know, now this doesn't
[9:26] guarantee success obviously, but it is
[9:29] coding your script to meet every
[9:32] requirement that Google is looking for.
[9:34] Now, another way to to build net
[9:36] information gain or to give net
[9:38] information gain to Google is to connect
[9:40] two things unrelated. Example,
[9:43] connecting AI to agriculture. So, when
[9:45] the algorithm tries to predict what the
[9:47] transcript of your video is, because
[9:49] it's always done that, um, that's kind
[9:50] of how you get caught with reused
[9:51] content, right? If the algorithm or
[9:53] Gemini could predict the next word of
[9:55] your script consistently, it gets hit
[9:57] with reused content because it's like,
[9:58] okay, this was clearly made with AI. But
[10:00] if you break the algorithm's prediction
[10:02] path with high net gain, um you do a
[10:05] pattern interrupt and Gemini is like,
[10:07] "Bro, this is fire, right? I have never
[10:09] seen this before." So right now in the
[10:11] sea of sameness, everyone that is trying
[10:14] to recreate the same style of videos,
[10:15] the same content, rewrite scripts, if
[10:17] you approach every single script with a
[10:19] strategy, the reward should be priority
[10:21] recommendation. You know, with this new
[10:23] Google update, we literally cracked it.
[10:24] You know, everyone's going to freak out
[10:26] about this if I say it publicly. um
[10:28] they're going to think like, "Oh, the AI
[10:29] is watching everything. It's over." It's
[10:30] like, "Not really. Now it's kind of
[10:32] easier because now we understand exactly
[10:34] what it's looking at." And it's it's it
[10:35] was kind of in front of us all the time.
[10:37] Now the game is to be completely
[10:39] unpredictable. Show the algorithm
[10:40] something it's never seen before cuz
[10:42] Google knows everything. I mean, you
[10:44] know, imagine how many repeats it sees a
[10:46] day. And it goes back to the main point
[10:47] that Google is trying to become an
[10:49] answer engine instead of a search
[10:52] engine, right? And if you Google
[10:53] anything, for example, if I Google
[10:55] myself, there's an AI mode for
[10:57] everything. And sometimes when you
[10:58] Google something alone, you see the AI
[11:00] overview before you see, you know,
[11:02] actual search terms because Google wants
[11:04] to have the answer for everything. They
[11:05] no longer want people to be scrolling
[11:07] through and and looking for for their
[11:09] answer. They just want to give it to
[11:11] them straight up. So, by adding new
[11:12] value, giving it new information that it
[11:14] could potentially use for AI overviews,
[11:16] which is the ultimate goal of Google,
[11:18] that's how we're going to win in in
[11:19] 2026. So yeah, there's a few other
[11:21] things I'm going to mention within this
[11:22] update. You know, when when Google uh
[11:24] made this update with Gemini, it's it
[11:26] sent a ripple effect throughout YouTube
[11:28] and how it works. So yeah, keep an eye
[11:29] out for those videos. It's going to it's
[11:31] going to be coming up pretty soon.
[11:35] So this is going to be one of the most
[11:37] important videos in the entire course.
[11:39] If for some reason this YouTube
[11:41] automation journey or YouTube journey
[11:42] fails for you, you can still take this
[11:44] with you. And that's because what I'm
[11:46] about to teach you right now applies to
[11:47] absolutely everything with social media.
[11:50] Doesn't matter if it's marketing,
[11:51] doesn't matter if it's building your own
[11:52] personal brand, doesn't matter if it's
[11:54] faceless YouTube channels. This is
[11:55] across the board the most important part
[11:58] with Google and YouTube in 2026. And no
[12:01] guru or no coach is ever going to tell
[12:04] you this. And again, that's because they
[12:05] don't know. As someone who has been
[12:07] doing YouTube for years, as someone who
[12:09] runs multiple channels, as someone who
[12:11] has spoken to thousands of people, I
[12:14] know when the algorithm changes, I know
[12:16] when something happens. I can tell the
[12:18] smallest detail. It's part of my like
[12:19] Asberers, okay? I I I get really um I'm
[12:23] really good at noticing slight changes
[12:26] with the algorithm. And I'm not saying
[12:27] that like in an ego way, like I'm a like
[12:29] I'm a [ __ ] genius, right? I'm
[12:30] terrible at 99% of the things in life,
[12:32] but noticing algorithm changes is
[12:34] probably the only thing I'm good at. And
[12:36] then towards the end of 2025, I realized
[12:39] that a change had happened, but it
[12:42] wasn't like the others. This was
[12:43] actually a very big change, one of the
[12:45] biggest ones. A few months later, Google
[12:47] documentation came out. And in fact, it
[12:49] was it was one of the biggest changes
[12:51] that Google and YouTube have done. Now,
[12:53] if you're starting a new channel or
[12:54] you're continuing a channel, it doesn't
[12:56] matter where you are in your journey,
[12:58] okay? This is something that you have to
[13:00] do. And uh I guess the the whole point
[13:02] of this video is offplatform presence.
[13:05] Okay, you're invisible to Google. And
[13:07] for those of you that don't know, Google
[13:09] owns YouTube. They are are now as of
[13:11] today, March of 2026, sharing almost an
[13:14] identical algorithm and it's all
[13:16] connected. Okay, Google bought YouTube.
[13:18] So now they're both kind of the same
[13:20] [ __ ] So you're invisible to Google.
[13:21] Where are you in Google's knowledge
[13:23] graph? In 2024, there was a Google API
[13:27] leak where thousands of internal Google
[13:29] documents were leaked. And something
[13:30] that was in those Google documents was
[13:33] something called Nav Boost, which
[13:35] essentially admitted that Google would
[13:38] push branded channels over unbranded
[13:41] YouTube channels. Now, by branded, I
[13:43] don't mean a cool logo and, you know,
[13:45] cool watermarks in your video. That's
[13:46] not what I mean. The first thing you
[13:48] want to do right now is create a
[13:50] presence outside of YouTube. And here is
[13:53] the key difference. an entity versus an
[13:54] uploader, right? Someone that just
[13:56] uploads on YouTube has low trust because
[13:58] they don't appear anywhere else. But an
[14:00] entity would be someone that is on
[14:03] YouTube, they're also on Indeed, they're
[14:05] also on Pinterest, they're also on
[14:06] Facebook, they're also on Instagram,
[14:08] they're also on X or Twitter. And all of
[14:10] them connect back to the YouTube
[14:11] channel. They have the same name and
[14:13] they have the same branding. Now, by
[14:14] having all of these things connected,
[14:16] you don't just become a YouTuber now,
[14:17] right? You become an entity, which
[14:19] increases your trust score times 100.
[14:22] Okay, this is one of the most important
[14:23] parts with the algorithm today because
[14:25] in 2026, anybody can start YouTube
[14:28] channels with AI. It has AI has made it
[14:31] extremely easy to launch channels and AI
[14:34] has also made it extremely easy to start
[14:36] content farms, which is just, you know,
[14:38] having AIs and n automations posting 50
[14:42] videos a day. And YouTube knows that.
[14:44] And to combat it, what they're doing now
[14:45] is that they don't necessarily care what
[14:48] you're uploading. They care about who is
[14:50] uploading it. So for that you need to
[14:52] become an entity. And the way this works
[14:54] is someone sees our Pinterest, they go
[14:57] to Google, they search us up and our
[14:59] authority goes up. And when this is
[15:01] repeated in every single platform, the
[15:03] authority grows more. So if I was to go
[15:05] and search up Views for Income LLC on
[15:09] Google, you're going to see that I have
[15:10] a Google knowledge graph here. Right? So
[15:12] this means that Google sees Views for
[15:15] Income LLC as a legit company. I have
[15:18] the phone number which I don't know
[15:19] whose phone number this is, the address,
[15:21] you know, location, whatever, the
[15:22] website and the description here. Now,
[15:25] this is ultimately what you want for
[15:27] your YouTube channel. So, the action
[15:29] plan is to add same ass schema to your
[15:32] site. This is going to be a completely
[15:33] different video. This is more of an
[15:35] introduction. You want to link all of
[15:36] your profiles with each other. You want
[15:38] to drive traffic from outside of YouTube
[15:40] and become a net contributor. This is
[15:42] the sauce, right? Especially with all of
[15:44] the demonetization going on nowadays,
[15:46] YouTube won't demonetize you if there is
[15:49] enough proof that you are a entity, that
[15:52] you are a brand and not just a random
[15:54] YouTuber. Now, there is a lot more that
[15:56] you need to know about this, which I'm
[15:57] going to cover in the next video. Uh
[15:59] before we do that, you want to do me a
[16:00] favor, guys, search up Romero, go to
[16:02] this Reddit tab here, cuz Reddit
[16:04] apparently has a lot of weight. You
[16:05] know, go in here, read some of the
[16:07] comments, leave a positive comment about
[16:09] me if you can. Would appreciate that, my
[16:11] boy. But yeah, once you start a YouTube
[16:12] channel, don't forget to make an
[16:14] Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter with
[16:16] the same name as your YouTube channel.
[16:18] Make sure that you link your YouTube
[16:20] channel in the bio of each. And make
[16:22] sure that in your YouTube channel, you
[16:23] also link all of those things. And I'm
[16:25] going to show you how to do that real
[16:26] quick. So, go to YouTube, click on the
[16:28] top right profile picture, go to view
[16:31] your channel, then go to customize
[16:33] channel here at the top, scroll down,
[16:35] and you're going to see links. Share
[16:38] external links with your viewers.
[16:39] they're visible on your channel's
[16:41] profile and about page. So then you
[16:42] would click add link from here. You
[16:44] would do Instagram, put your URL there,
[16:47] add another one, do your Twitter. So
[16:49] yeah, go ahead and start doing that. I
[16:51] think this is a pretty good pretty good
[16:52] intro for now on on what you're about to
[16:54] see next.
[16:58] All right, so I'm going to break this
[16:59] down again. And this is like uh the how
[17:01] to problem solve your channel. And I
[17:02] know this was covered in another video.
[17:04] I already broke it down. I already
[17:05] showed you guys how it is. But I feel
[17:06] like there was a some sort of
[17:08] misunderstanding. Okay. So, what I'm
[17:10] going to do is pull up some screenshots
[17:12] of what students have sent me for the
[17:14] channel reviews during the the live
[17:15] calls and I'm going to show you like so
[17:17] you can see my perspective of the of the
[17:19] [ __ ] that I see. Right. Here's
[17:20] screenshot number one. Now, this guy in
[17:22] the last 28 days has gotten 9.9,000
[17:24] views, 166,000 impressions, 5.2% CTR,
[17:28] and a 3 minute and 50 second AVD. Right?
[17:31] And he's been sort of consistent here.
[17:33] Uh whatever he posted on May 9th, that
[17:34] popped off. probably a diddy to be
[17:36] honest. And then after that it kind of
[17:37] slowed down, picked up a little bit. Um,
[17:39] and the peak that he got was 1,900 views
[17:42] in a single day. And now 166,000
[17:45] impressions is not a crazy amount for
[17:48] the last 28 days, but what is bad is the
[17:51] views he got. And you see this and and
[17:52] what the what I see here is like, okay,
[17:55] YouTube completely ignored his channel
[17:57] uh at the end of April, beginning of
[17:58] May. And then on May 9th, it took it
[18:00] into consideration and it tested his
[18:02] channel, right? So then every single
[18:03] time he was posting, uh, obviously he
[18:05] was getting some peaks. YouTube was
[18:06] testing it out and this student was
[18:08] asking me, "I don't understand what I'm
[18:09] doing wrong." Like, "Bro, your CTR is
[18:11] 5.2
[18:13] and your AVD is 350. What the [ __ ] do
[18:15] you mean you don't know what you're
[18:16] doing wrong? It's so simple. It it it's
[18:19] so it's right there, right? It's right
[18:20] there for you. It's a 5.2% CTR. And yes,
[18:23] this guy's in celebrity news. He was
[18:24] posting Diddy videos. You have a 5.2%
[18:27] CTR." And I asked him during the call. I
[18:29] was like, "Well, okay, your thumbnails,
[18:30] you know, they're not the worst. They're
[18:32] different, but they're not the worst.
[18:33] You can switch to to the normal style of
[18:35] thumbnails that I teach in in the
[18:36] course. And also, how do you do your
[18:38] titles? And he said, "Oh, I use Chad
[18:39] GBT." Bro,
[18:45] you know, guys, for celebrity news, you
[18:47] can't use Chad GBT for titles. You
[18:49] can't. It's not going to be as good. And
[18:50] that that's not how this works. Yes, you
[18:52] can use Chad GBT for titles with
[18:54] literally any other niche. You know,
[18:55] anything that's evergreen, cool. But
[18:57] celebrity news, it can't be that way.
[18:58] Remember, we have to beat our
[19:00] competitors with creativity, right? So,
[19:01] a 5.2% CTR. YouTube tested it. He didn't
[19:05] impress YouTube with the CTR, but not
[19:07] only that, it's a 3 minute and 50 second
[19:09] ABD, which is not the worst that I've
[19:13] seen. Okay, it's not the worst, but it's
[19:15] also not great. So, not only did he not
[19:17] have the bare minimum of CTR that you're
[19:19] supposed to have, I mean, a 9% is like,
[19:21] okay, if you had a 9% CTR and you did
[19:24] and these were your analytics, I promise
[19:26] you, you would have way more views,
[19:27] right? If you're going to have low CTR,
[19:29] you better have [ __ ] high ABD. And
[19:31] same goes for ABD. If you have low AVD,
[19:35] you better have really high CTR. Okay?
[19:37] Vice versa. Same [ __ ] And this guy
[19:39] didn't have any of them. So, it's like,
[19:40] okay, well, here's time to problem
[19:42] solve. Number one, stop using ChatGBT
[19:44] for your titles, right? Use a little bit
[19:46] of creativity. You know, again, put
[19:48] yourself in the perspective of the
[19:50] audience. Um, and that should fix. Now,
[19:51] for Evergreen, that's a completely
[19:53] different story. I'm going to cover that
[19:54] in other videos, but for celebrity news,
[19:56] this is unacceptable. Okay, for AVD,
[19:58] same thing. And sometimes it's the
[19:59] smallest changes that you can do. It can
[20:01] be the background music. It could be the
[20:03] voice you're using because a lot of
[20:04] students have shown me their channels. I
[20:05] I sit there and I watch. I'm sure if
[20:07] you've joined the live calls, you can
[20:08] see that the voices are dog [ __ ] I can
[20:10] tell you're not using 11 Labs. Some of
[20:12] them are okay. Some of the voices that
[20:14] that are being used are okay, but the
[20:16] majority of them sound so bad. And I
[20:18] always have to say, and if you sit
[20:19] during those calls, I'm like, "Okay, cut
[20:21] the gaps in between the audio. Okay,
[20:23] change voice." Like, guys, yes,
[20:24] celebrity news can be dog [ __ ] like
[20:27] quality of the content, but come on now,
[20:29] you know, there, come on now. It can't
[20:31] be that bad. And this guy, you know, he
[20:33] wasn't shadowbanned. It took a while for
[20:35] YouTube to to push his content, but when
[20:38] YouTube gave him the opportunity, he he
[20:40] fumbled. That's what he did. Next one is
[20:43] this. I believe it's the same guy. Last
[20:45] 7 days, 16,000 impressions, 972 views,
[20:49] 5.1% CTR, and an average view duration
[20:51] of 2 minutes and 33 seconds. At this
[20:54] point, when you see these numbers, guys,
[20:56] you have to problem solve something,
[20:58] right? You can't just keep posting and
[20:59] posting and posting and hopefully, you
[21:00] know, it's going to pop off, which, yes,
[21:02] it can happen. It's very likely that one
[21:04] video is going to pop off regardless of
[21:06] what these numbers look like. But
[21:07] problem solve, you know, if your AVD is
[21:09] 2 minutes and 33, add some phase 2 twos
[21:11] at the beginning. Maybe remove some
[21:13] phase twos if you have them. Change the
[21:15] voice, change the background music, cut
[21:16] the gaps of the voice, switch up the
[21:18] script a little bit, right? Change
[21:20] change your prompt. do something because
[21:22] 2 minutes and 33 seconds of ABD is
[21:24] unacceptable. That's like a [ __ ]
[21:26] YouTube short. So, you have to problem
[21:28] solve. It's always going to be the
[21:29] dumbest, smallest thing. Just change
[21:30] stuff. Change stuff every single video.
[21:32] Instead of just repeating and sending
[21:33] the same [ __ ] out, change something of
[21:35] it, post it, and then analyze, right?
[21:38] CTR. I mean, if if you just don't got
[21:40] it, you don't got it. It's one of those
[21:41] things, and I mentioned that in in the
[21:42] course as well, the the VIP. If you
[21:45] don't have the creativity where you can
[21:46] sit down, put yourself in the in the
[21:48] shoes of the audience and come up with
[21:49] something creative, something original,
[21:50] continuing the story, um, for these
[21:52] celebrity news niche, you know, some
[21:55] people just aren't built for it, man.
[21:56] Some people I just can't teach. You
[21:58] know, it's not something that you you
[22:00] teach. I showed you guys how I did it in
[22:01] one of the VIP videos. I showed you how
[22:03] I came up with the titles, putting
[22:04] myself in the shoes of of the audience,
[22:06] and, you know, for some people that just
[22:08] doesn't click. That doesn't mean you
[22:09] can't, you know, your YouTube automation
[22:10] career is over. That just means the
[22:12] niche isn't for you. Or at least that
[22:15] subniche, you know what I mean? Like,
[22:16] okay, maybe Diddy won't hit for you. You
[22:18] know nothing about Diddy. You knew it
[22:19] from the jump. It's not going to hit for
[22:21] you. Okay, well, go for old Hollywood.
[22:23] You know, go for any of the I put so
[22:25] many evergreen niches in there and
[22:26] subniches of celebrity. And you have a
[22:28] lot of options, right? For those, you
[22:30] don't need to be that creative. Next one
[22:31] is this guy. Last 28 days, 23,000 views,
[22:35] 362,000 impressions, almost double from
[22:37] the other guy. 5.2% 2% CTR 3 minute 49
[22:41] second AVD and then he stopped posting
[22:43] like bro peak views he got looks like uh
[22:46] 4.3 4.5 right here didn't adjust
[22:50] anything YouTube was begging this
[22:52] [ __ ] to fix something and to
[22:54] adapt his CTR adapt his AVD change
[22:57] something and he didn't and then he just
[23:00] stopped posting and the second I'm
[23:02] assuming he posted something here but
[23:03] deleted it picked up you know when he
[23:05] posts it picks up but when he doesn't it
[23:07] dies Look. So, every time he posts it,
[23:10] it peaks. So, this is a good channel.
[23:11] This is a really, really good channel.
[23:12] He's just not fixing things. It's about
[23:14] problem solving, guys. This is YouTube
[23:16] automation is just pattern recognition.
[23:18] It's just pattern recognition. It's all
[23:20] it is. Okay? So, if if you're going to
[23:22] send us a channel review and you're
[23:23] like, I don't understand what I'm doing
[23:24] wrong. I don't understand why the
[23:25] channel isn't working. And you show me
[23:27] these [ __ ] numbers, dude, I'm going
[23:28] to be like, come on. It's the AVD or
[23:31] it's the CTR, right? Change something.
[23:33] Change the approach. Right? And you can
[23:35] I'm not saying don't send channel
[23:37] reviews for that reason. And if if you
[23:38] need more ideas on what you can change
[23:40] or what exactly would I start with, for
[23:42] sure, send them. But the answer is very
[23:44] obvious, right? This isn't rocket
[23:45] science. It's very simple. If your if
[23:47] your channel looks like this and you
[23:48] have the these amounts of uh
[23:50] impressions, YouTube wants this channel
[23:52] to work. You're just not letting it. The
[23:54] only issue that you should have is like,
[23:55] okay, your CTR is like a 9 plus and and
[23:58] your AVD is like 4 minutes and you just
[24:00] want to know how to how to reach five
[24:02] minutes in AVD or 15 minutes in CTR,
[24:05] right? those little micro adjustments.
[24:07] It's this is what you're going to
[24:09] benefit with the most. And yes, I'm
[24:10] going to be covering that a little bit
[24:12] more in in these videos. Cool. Just
[24:14] wanted to let you know if we're all on
[24:15] the same page and what I'm seeing with
[24:17] the majority of the students and what
[24:19] you're probably seeing and then we're
[24:20] going to problem solve this together in
[24:21] these videos before we go into the
[24:23] channel reviews. Okay, awesome. Let's
[24:25] move on.
[24:28] So, if you hear anyone say that average
[24:31] view duration is the most important part
[24:32] of the algorithm and that your ultimate
[24:35] goal should be to have someone watch
[24:36] your video for as long as possible, that
[24:39] is a lie. Sort of kind of because with
[24:42] the new Gemini update, that did change
[24:45] the way that YouTube perceives average
[24:47] view duration. So before, if you had a
[24:50] 10-minute video and you had a 2-minute
[24:52] average view duration, immediately the
[24:54] algorithm would be like, "This video is
[24:56] dog [ __ ] People left after 2 minutes.
[24:58] They didn't watch the full 10 minutes.
[24:59] Therefore, I'm not going to recommend
[25:01] this video." Which makes sense. That in
[25:03] itself is logical. But now that Gemini
[25:05] has the ability to reason and to
[25:07] understand what the viewer is doing
[25:10] before and after it clicks the video. So
[25:12] then Gemini goes and investigates, why
[25:14] did the person leave at 2 minutes and
[25:15] didn't watch the entire 10-minute video?
[25:17] Because again, Gemini now watches what
[25:19] you do before and after you view a
[25:21] video. So it asks, did the viewer leave
[25:23] because you got the answer? That would
[25:25] be good abandonment. The viewer is
[25:27] satisfied. Or did the person leave
[25:29] because they were bored or clickbait?
[25:32] That would be bad abandonment. And it
[25:34] knows this because let's say your video
[25:36] title is how to change a tire. Bad
[25:38] abandonment would be if the viewer
[25:40] clicks off of your video and starts
[25:42] searching for another YouTube video that
[25:45] is a tutorial on how to change a tire.
[25:47] This tells Gemini that the problem of
[25:49] the viewer was unsolved. Now, good
[25:51] abandonment would be when the viewer
[25:53] watches after 2 minutes and then either
[25:55] closes the app or starts searching for
[25:57] other content on YouTube saying that
[25:59] your tutorial video on how to change a
[26:02] tire. You know, you you teach people how
[26:04] to do it within 2 minutes of the video
[26:06] and then the rest is just like a vlog.
[26:08] Completely irrelevant, right? People
[26:09] don't care about that. They were just
[26:10] there to learn how to change a tire. So,
[26:12] that would be good abandonment if they
[26:14] leave and they don't search for that
[26:15] topic again. So again now that Gemini
[26:18] has not a conscious but you know it can
[26:20] reason it can now fully go forth with
[26:23] Google's objective which is uh
[26:24] satisfaction. Did it satisfy the viewer?
[26:26] Did it answer their question? And the
[26:28] more you get this right with Gemini
[26:30] understanding this now um that builds
[26:32] channel authority for you. Meaning that
[26:34] even if you get a 2-minute average view
[26:35] duration for 20 videos back to back if
[26:38] the viewer leaves happy you're going to
[26:40] be recommended every single time. That
[26:42] is impressions and that is views. So
[26:43] yeah, I mean average view duration is
[26:45] still important, right? There there are
[26:47] some niches um that you guys are in
[26:49] which are more like storybased I suppose
[26:52] where you kind of have to have a high
[26:53] AVD because anything else besides that
[26:56] would be the person got bored and left.
[26:58] But it's still too early to tell. Um at
[27:00] least we know that Gemini is now going
[27:01] to start doing this. So um not every
[27:03] metric is bad. That's why some of you
[27:05] see like a two 2 minute 30 average view
[27:07] duration. Uh but you get a [ __ ] ton of
[27:09] views. So yeah, again, if we think about
[27:11] this long term and we think about where
[27:13] YouTube is headed, not bad. Not bad at
[27:16] all, right? But yeah, let's see what
[27:18] Gemini does and hopefully this starts
[27:20] building a little bit more of an answer
[27:21] for us, a little bit more of an accurate
[27:23] answer. Um, so yeah,
[27:27] now before you start a faceless YouTube
[27:29] channel, there is a very very important
[27:31] question that you have to answer and
[27:33] that is, are you going into a trendy
[27:35] niche or are you going into an evergreen
[27:38] niche? both have their pros and cons.
[27:40] Now, if you already have an idea of what
[27:42] you're going to do, I want you to pause
[27:44] for a second um and hear me out, okay?
[27:46] Because you might not like what you're
[27:47] about to hear. A trendy niche would be
[27:50] anything that revolves around news. You
[27:53] know, for example, celebrity news. An
[27:55] evergreen niche would be documentaries,
[27:58] top 10s, you know, things that aren't
[28:00] time-sensitive. Because if you go into a
[28:02] trendy niche like celebrity news, you
[28:04] have to consider that you're going to
[28:06] have to be on top of this [ __ ] right?
[28:07] If you're going to be doing uh news
[28:09] about rappers, you have to be checking
[28:11] TMZ every single day. You have to be
[28:13] checking what the competitors are doing
[28:15] every single day. But most importantly,
[28:17] you're going to have to be uploading
[28:19] almost every single day. As opposed to
[28:21] an evergreen YouTube channel where you
[28:23] do history documentaries about World War
[28:25] II, you can get away with uploading two
[28:27] to three times a week. And you're not
[28:28] necessarily pressured about getting a
[28:30] video out. For example, let's go ahead
[28:31] and say that uh Jay-Z and Beyonce get
[28:34] divorced. You're going to have to post
[28:36] as soon as possible. Well, you're going
[28:37] to have to drop everything you're doing,
[28:38] right? And post about the divorce. But
[28:40] in the evergreen niche, you know,
[28:42] there's no pressure. You don't have to
[28:44] be first to anything. There isn't uh,
[28:46] you know, trends. Now, let's talk about
[28:48] money. With a trendy niche like
[28:50] celebrity news, again, using the same
[28:52] example of Beyonce and Jay-Z getting a
[28:55] divorce, that is gold, right? If you
[28:57] start posting videos, pumping out two to
[28:58] three videos that same exact day, and
[29:00] the next day you do it again, that month
[29:02] you're probably going to make a [ __ ] ton
[29:03] of money. The issue is that when nobody
[29:06] cares about Beyonce and Jay-Z's divorce,
[29:09] the views go down a lot. So, you're
[29:11] going to have to be on your toes 247.
[29:12] But in the evergreen niche, it's slow
[29:14] and steady. You post a documentary video
[29:16] and it doesn't go crazy the first day or
[29:18] the first week, but it slowly starts
[29:20] getting views. Let's say 200 views a
[29:22] day. Then you post another video, same
[29:24] thing. 200 views a day, starts growing
[29:26] slowly until eventually one of them
[29:28] picks up to like, let's say, 10,000
[29:30] views a day. and another one picks up to
[29:32] 10,000 views a day. Now you have two
[29:34] videos getting 10,000 views a day. Do
[29:36] the math on that. You're making about 30
[29:38] bucks a day. And the more time goes by,
[29:40] the more you start posting, the more you
[29:43] start stacking on top of each other
[29:44] until eventually you build out, you
[29:47] know, consistent passive income. You can
[29:49] skip an upload here and there. You can
[29:50] start uploading once a week. It doesn't
[29:52] matter cuz you're still making, you
[29:53] know. But in the trendy niche again,
[29:56] Beyonce and Jay-Z, you post a banger, it
[29:59] gets a million views within 4 to 5
[30:01] hours. Or you post two videos that day
[30:02] and they both get 100K views. But it all
[30:05] goes back to the same thing. Once that
[30:06] story dies, you have to move on to
[30:08] another one. So, it goes back to you.
[30:10] How do you want to approach this? Do you
[30:11] just want to chill and just start
[30:12] posting here and there, or do you want
[30:14] to go full-time all the way and go for
[30:18] for that jackpot? In my opinion, they're
[30:20] both great. So, my advice to you is if
[30:22] you have a full-time job, you're not
[30:24] very big on tech, you know, you're not
[30:26] very uh familiar with celebrities or
[30:28] you're not very um you don't care, you
[30:31] know, you would just want to spend a few
[30:32] minutes a day doing this, don't do
[30:34] trendy. It's not for you. If you're
[30:35] someone younger or if you're someone
[30:37] that has a lot of time and you think to
[30:38] yourself, ah, you know what? Yeah, [ __ ]
[30:40] it. I'll post a video about the
[30:41] Kardashians. Who cares? I'll knock it
[30:43] out real quick. You know, what is it
[30:44] going to take 20, 30 minutes? Then the
[30:46] trending niche is for you. I highly
[30:47] recommend it. paydays are pretty good.
[30:50] But again, it's completely up to you.
[30:52] Oh, one last thing. If you're going to
[30:53] go into the evergreen niche and you're
[30:55] going to hire a video editor, just know
[30:57] that it might be a little bit more
[30:59] expensive than, you know, doing the
[31:00] celebrity news niche or any trendy
[31:02] niche. So, yeah, that's completely up to
[31:04] you to decide. If you go into the
[31:07] classroom and you head to the list of
[31:09] niches, you can see that some of these
[31:11] are already marked. For example,
[31:12] celebrity news is a trend. WNBA is a
[31:15] trend. Vintage Hollywood is evergreen.
[31:17] car niche is a trend, but this is kind
[31:19] of both. Uh, MMA, UFC is a trend. Top 10
[31:21] TV shows is evergreen. Streamers is
[31:24] evergreen/trend, depending on how you
[31:25] approach it. Point is, they're all
[31:27] marked for you here. Okay, but yeah,
[31:28] let's uh let's go ahead and move on.
[31:33] So, what should you pick? Should you
[31:34] pick an evergreen niche or should you go
[31:37] into something trendy? That was usually
[31:38] the first question. Now, that's changed.
[31:40] And that changed because because this
[31:42] community blew up around October,
[31:44] November of of last year, so it's still
[31:46] relatively new, right? I've done a [ __ ]
[31:48] ton of live calls. I've done one-on
[31:50] ones. I've spoken to a lot of students.
[31:52] And the conclusion that I came to is not
[31:55] everyone is built for these trendy
[31:57] niches. Not everyone's going to get the
[31:58] hang of thumbnails. Not everyone's going
[32:00] to get the hang of clickbait. Um,
[32:01] working with some people in the
[32:02] community, I realize that you just, it
[32:04] sounds kind of bad, but they're
[32:05] unteable, right? because I feel like
[32:07] that's a creative part of the brain that
[32:09] you you have to turn on and some people
[32:12] just can't. That sounds so bad, but it's
[32:14] true. Now, that doesn't mean that you're
[32:16] not going to make it with with a trendy
[32:17] niche, right? I'm not saying that. And
[32:19] I'm I I'm going to say it. It's usually
[32:20] older people that don't succeed in the
[32:22] trendy ones. I'm talking about like 40
[32:24] plus. Not saying that's like super old.
[32:26] I'm just saying like from what I've seen
[32:27] and the people I've spoken to, that's
[32:29] around the the age range. Okay. The
[32:31] success rate with people over 40 is
[32:33] really low for trendy niches. But I
[32:35] would say that 95% of the students that
[32:38] have been successful in this community
[32:40] over the age of 40 have been in
[32:41] evergreen niches. And I'm going to
[32:43] explain this in the next video. So if
[32:44] that's you, just hold on.
[32:49] So I didn't mean to scare you, but I
[32:51] wanted to tell you the truth. You know,
[32:52] I don't want to sit here and tell you
[32:53] to, you know, hey, post videos about
[32:55] this, when in reality, deep down, I know
[32:57] that it probably won't work. Some of you
[32:59] just don't have it. And I'm saying that
[33:01] because I've spoken to so many. I feel
[33:02] like if you're confident, if you know
[33:05] you can make good packaging videos and
[33:07] good thumbnails, good titles, you're
[33:08] good. This doesn't apply to you. It's
[33:10] good to have an ego when it comes to
[33:11] that. But I've spoken to a lot of you
[33:12] that are just like, "Oh man, you know,
[33:14] this is tough. I don't know about any of
[33:16] this." And it's kind of like, damn. But
[33:18] again, 95% of people who succeeded in
[33:21] evergreen niches inside of this
[33:22] community were 40 years old plus. I
[33:25] think the reason that older people
[33:26] succeed in evergreen niches more is
[33:29] because you guys understand something
[33:30] that we can't. you know us younger
[33:32] people just like we have that thing in
[33:34] our brain where we can make where we can
[33:35] succeed in trendy niches you have that
[33:37] thing in your brain where you can
[33:39] succeed in evergreen niches and I
[33:40] believe it's because most of the
[33:42] evergreen topics are kind of so adultish
[33:45] you know uh it's not celebrity news it's
[33:47] not like YouTuber gossip right that's
[33:49] [ __ ] teenagers watch or you know people
[33:50] in in their early 20s but you guys know
[33:53] exactly what people your age want to
[33:55] watch and I don't feel like they're
[33:57] attended to as much which is why it's so
[33:59] easy to succeed in these niches Right.
[34:01] Again, it goes back to the case study
[34:03] channel, the country talk one. I didn't
[34:04] know anything about country artists. I
[34:06] just put it all together with Chad GBT.
[34:08] You guys saw I was crashing out and it
[34:09] worked because nobody else was doing it.
[34:11] So, I was making videos about country
[34:13] artists from the '60s. So, for those of
[34:15] you that are about 40 years old, you
[34:17] would connect with that because it's
[34:18] music that your parents probably listen
[34:20] to. And if you search, you know, for
[34:22] evergreen niches, there's not that many.
[34:24] I mean, there's barely rock and roll uh
[34:26] evergreen channels coming out, which is
[34:28] crazy. Now, imagine all of the things
[34:30] that I don't know, that we don't know,
[34:32] the younger people that you do. And
[34:35] here's the best part with Evergreen. You
[34:37] don't have to go that crazy with
[34:38] thumbnails, right? It's not a thumbnail
[34:40] CTR based thing. And I mean, this makes
[34:42] sense. You know, people your age don't
[34:43] do YouTube. It's very rare for someone
[34:45] over the age of 35, 40 years old to be
[34:47] doing YouTube. There was this whole time
[34:49] period of culture, finances, way of
[34:53] speaking that was completely skipped on
[34:54] YouTube. Again, these are things that
[34:56] only you know. Now there's YouTube
[34:57] channels doing rock and roll. They're
[34:59] doing country, but only you can identify
[35:02] like the micro niche of it. Like that
[35:04] very specific part of country that
[35:06] nobody else has talked about or a very
[35:07] specific time period. Let's say it only
[35:09] lasted like 2 years during country music
[35:12] times. I don't know, like when it was at
[35:14] its peak or just artists that people
[35:16] forgot about. And I'm I'm just using
[35:17] artists as an example, guys. I'm talking
[35:19] about everything else in general. You
[35:20] know, like maybe [ __ ] credit. Talk
[35:22] about Consumer Reports. You know,
[35:24] there's a lot of people with their face
[35:25] talking about it, but hey, [ __ ] make
[35:27] an automation one. What else? Fishing.
[35:29] There's no channels for fishing.
[35:30] Faceless channels. I don't know. Only
[35:32] you know what what hits. Something I
[35:34] forgot to mention as I'm editing this, I
[35:35] noticed. The reason I was saying this is
[35:37] because 99% of people that do YouTube,
[35:40] and I'm sure you agree with me, is
[35:41] around my age or younger. Like, I'm
[35:43] considered one of the older guys that
[35:45] does YouTube automation, right? Everyone
[35:46] else and on Twitter, on YouTube, they're
[35:48] much younger than me. And it goes back
[35:50] to the country one. You know who was
[35:52] making the country video? someone that
[35:53] was born [ __ ] 40 years later. So,
[35:55] that was my point. My point was that
[35:56] people that are making these evergreen
[35:58] channels are people like me, but
[35:59] younger. That's why there isn't that
[36:01] connection or that bullseye that only
[36:03] you can do. But anyways, let me continue
[36:04] editing this. There's no specific
[36:06] YouTube channel for I think like the 70s
[36:09] or 80s, you know, during that Elvis uh
[36:12] Michael Jackson pop Madonna. Hold on.
[36:15] I'm thinking of a song, a specific
[36:17] sound. Let me see if I find it.
[36:19] Everybody wants to This song
[36:26] that I don't know what that genre of
[36:28] music is called, but it doesn't exist
[36:30] anymore, but you still hear it all over
[36:32] the place. Why isn't there a YouTube
[36:34] channel, Faceless, and I've looked that
[36:36] covers, you know, music artists from
[36:37] this time, from from this from this
[36:39] genre. What is this type of music
[36:41] called? Oh, they're going to be in Vegas
[36:43] Wednesday. I might actually go to that.
[36:45] I'm not even joking. I'm going to study
[36:47] my target audience. But yeah, whoever
[36:49] whoever makes a a YouTube channel on
[36:51] that and covers artists that maybe not
[36:53] everyone talks about, maybe they weren't
[36:55] as big as those guys, that's game,
[36:57] right? You don't have to go that crazy.
[36:59] What did you used to do when you were a
[37:00] kid or a teenager or young adult? What
[37:02] is one of the things that was just
[37:04] known? What would you see on TV? TV
[37:06] shows that everyone forgot about, you
[37:07] know, think of think of that. Maybe make
[37:09] a top 10 video on it. Just bring
[37:11] nostalgia back, right? People will see
[37:12] that and be like, "Oh my god, I remember
[37:14] that show. How did I forget it existed?
[37:15] I've never seen that on YouTube before."
[37:16] But as you watch this entire program, I
[37:18] hope you know it starts flowing a little
[37:20] bit. You start getting some ideas
[37:22] because again, you guys are all sitting
[37:23] in a gold mine and it's deep in the back
[37:25] of your head and there's a niche there
[37:27] that we never thought of. You know,
[37:29] something that I want to know. So use it
[37:32] to your advantage, man. You know, you
[37:33] don't have to compete with with people
[37:35] like me posting videos about Diddy. You
[37:38] know, you don't have to do any of that
[37:39] for you guys. I think the more simple
[37:41] the better because your audience and and
[37:43] people in your age group, they love
[37:45] simple stuff, right? That's why I always
[37:46] say if you can't do uh thumbnails or or
[37:48] Photoshop, do evergreen because they
[37:51] don't care about thumbnails. It's not a
[37:52] big deal. But yeah, I mean, I could rant
[37:53] about this all day cuz it is very very
[37:55] exciting. I want to see what you guys do
[37:57] with it. But if I don't end this now,
[37:58] I'm never going to shut the [ __ ] up. So,
[38:00] thank you so much for watching.
[38:04] So, we know that there was a huge change
[38:06] in the algorithm, right, because of
[38:08] Gemini. One of the things that changed
[38:09] the most was script writing. And I
[38:11] believe that the script writing of our
[38:13] videos is responsible for getting us hit
[38:15] with reused content and or if the
[38:18] channel gets pushed. Almost every single
[38:19] company, every big company like YouTube,
[38:22] they're investing a lot of money right
[38:23] now into figuring out what was made with
[38:25] AI. They have their own servers that run
[38:27] their own agents pretty much that job is
[38:30] to detect AI. You know, they they have
[38:32] to, especially if they're monetized,
[38:34] like Twitter's the same way. Now, the
[38:35] system that Gemini uses is predicting,
[38:38] right? Can it predict what you're going
[38:40] to say next? For example, if your script
[38:42] says the company was founded in
[38:46] right there, Gemini is already guessing
[38:49] the company was founded in 2015. The
[38:51] company was founded in California. You
[38:53] know, it's it's trying to figure out
[38:54] what the next word's going to be. And
[38:55] this is when it analyzes the whole
[38:56] thing. And if it can keep correctly
[38:58] predicting what that word is going to
[39:00] be, that's a red flag. It's going to
[39:02] know that it was created with AI and
[39:04] it's going to lower your trust score. So
[39:05] the way to beat this, the first key
[39:07] thing is perplexity, which means
[39:09] surprising AI with what you're saying.
[39:11] So adding uh specific dates, specific
[39:14] events, or your own opinion in itself
[39:17] already throws off the AI. If you use a
[39:19] voice uh from 11 Labs that is used by a
[39:21] lot of people, and your scripting is
[39:23] very similar or the AI can predict it,
[39:25] that's the automated system that gets
[39:27] you hit with reused content. Now, moving
[39:29] on to the second thing, which is
[39:30] burstiness. Do your sentences all sound
[39:32] the same? You know, we all know that AI
[39:33] writes very formal like Wikipedia. You
[39:35] know, it's very uh long sentences with
[39:38] 15 to 20 words. But if you add wild
[39:41] variations in there and you break that
[39:43] pattern of of like an article style of
[39:45] writing, that's it. The third thing is
[39:48] complexity, which is how interesting is
[39:50] your vocabulary? You know, Chad, GBT,
[39:52] Claude, Gemini, if you ask them to
[39:54] script right, they're going to play it
[39:55] safe. And the phrases they use, you
[39:57] know, are very article-ish. The correct
[39:59] term is generic vocabulary. For example,
[40:02] AI would say the office environment was
[40:05] disorganized. A human would say there
[40:07] were three empty Red Bull cans stacked
[40:09] on the desk next to a dead plant. You
[40:11] know, it's like super random [ __ ] Now,
[40:13] below this video, you're going to see
[40:15] pretty much my entire report on what
[40:17] I've uh learned and what I've
[40:18] discovered. Um the wording may be a
[40:19] little bit complicated for some of you,
[40:21] so you can just copy paste it into Chat
[40:23] GBT and ask it to translate it for you.
[40:25] Um, also under this video, which I'm
[40:27] going to do it now, I'm going to add all
[40:29] of the words and phrases that you want
[40:31] to um, block. For example, thus heading
[40:34] phrases to avoid. It may seem, some
[40:36] might argue, it remains to be seen. It
[40:38] is important to know like these phrases
[40:40] that I'm telling you right now are
[40:41] marked into Gemini already. These are by
[40:44] default what Gemini says. Oh, this is
[40:46] AI. Buzzwords to avoid. Delve, leverage,
[40:48] comprehensive robust holistic
[40:50] optimize. So the formula is high
[40:52] perplexity plus high burstiness plus
[40:55] high complexity equals human detected
[40:58] content. Now the easy translation for
[41:00] that is surprise the AI break the rhythm
[41:02] of your sentences and sound like a real
[41:04] person. So again, I do recommend that
[41:06] you read everything under this video.
[41:09] And then in the next page, I'm going to
[41:10] add the list of uh words and sentences
[41:14] that you have to block. And in the next
[41:16] video, I'm going to share with you guys
[41:17] the the script prompt.
[41:22] So no matter what topic you choose,
[41:24] celebrities, cars, vintage Hollywood,
[41:26] you know, whatever it is, they're going
[41:27] to have micro niches. Okay? And this is
[41:29] very, very important. And it does matter
[41:31] what it is that you choose. And the
[41:32] reason for that is because the level of
[41:34] difficulty depending on the microniche
[41:35] is going to change. Some are harder,
[41:37] some are easier. Um, the amount of
[41:38] uploads that you have to do also
[41:39] changes. The slang that you have to use
[41:41] in the actual script and and the video,
[41:43] the type of background music you use,
[41:45] the voice style, the thumbnail style, it
[41:46] it's essentially completely different.
[41:48] And of course, the editing pace, but
[41:49] overall, I'm talking about the way
[41:51] you're going to mimic the competitor,
[41:52] right? Depending on the micro niche that
[41:54] you're going to choose, that's going to
[41:55] decide how you have to camouflage your
[41:57] channel. Now, for those of you that are
[41:58] in the celebrity news niche, I'm going
[42:00] to start with this one, but I'm going to
[42:01] talk about a few. Okay, here's one micro
[42:04] niche of celebrity news, which is Diddy.
[42:06] It's literally just trending. There's no
[42:08] specific audience on this one. It's just
[42:09] whatever is happening, that's what
[42:11] they're going to post about. This is one
[42:12] of those where, you know, Blake Lively
[42:13] and Justin Baldoni were trending,
[42:15] they're going to post about that. Rachel
[42:16] Zgler was trending, they're going to
[42:17] post about it. Diddy is trending,
[42:19] they're just going to post about it. So,
[42:20] just think about the audience that
[42:22] watches these videos. Now, here is
[42:23] channel number two. This is a little bit
[42:25] more towards influencers, but
[42:26] technically, I mean, nowadays, they're
[42:28] celebrities. And sometimes, yes, they
[42:30] talk about actual celebrities like Haley
[42:32] Beaver, Kylie Jenner, you know, not
[42:33] necessarily just social media people.
[42:36] And it's completely different. We're
[42:37] talking about packaging. We're talking
[42:38] about the audience that they're
[42:39] targeting, right? This is obviously
[42:41] white girls, right? We go over here,
[42:43] African-Americans. Well, this one
[42:44] actually, it's a mixture. There's a lot
[42:46] of white people that care about Diddy,
[42:47] right? But if we go to this channel,
[42:48] Batty Radio, this is 100% targeting
[42:51] African-Americans. And it's not just
[42:52] Diddy that they're posting. They're
[42:53] posting about people like Remy Ma,
[42:55] Kamura Lee, Tasha K. You know, who the
[42:57] [ __ ] are these people? I don't know.
[42:59] But, you know, obviously they're
[43:00] different cultures, right? Now, let's go
[43:02] ahead and look at the cars niche, right?
[43:03] If you tell me, "Hey, I'm in the car
[43:05] niche." I'll be like, "Okay, cool. What
[43:06] type?" Right? Are you doing just bad
[43:08] investments about like protecting
[43:09] people's finances, what cars they should
[43:11] buy? This channel's doing 7007,000 views
[43:13] a month. But then we go to garage heads.
[43:15] These guys are taking a completely
[43:16] different approach and it's the car
[43:18] niche, but they're talking about like
[43:19] the economy, what's affecting the, you
[43:21] know, like Tesla's Africa released
[43:23] $5,000 EV and crushed Tesla. Uh, dealer
[43:25] lots are overloaded, you know, just
[43:27] [ __ ] like that, right? And this
[43:28] channel is doing 3.2 million views a
[43:30] month, which is crazy. That's crazy.
[43:32] Now, if we go to R.J.'s garage, this is
[43:34] another channel. It's very similar, but
[43:36] the packaging is obviously different.
[43:37] So, it's talking still about Amazon's
[43:39] $20,000 pickup truck. Dealers panic
[43:41] giving away 70k Rams. Still talking
[43:44] about the same thing. 2025 car market
[43:46] apocalypse. One day ago, 116,000 views,
[43:49] which is crazy. 1.9,000 views in the
[43:52] last 28 days. But if you're going to hop
[43:54] into like the finance and uh the economy
[43:56] car niche uh or micro niche, sorry,
[43:58] these are your two competitors and they
[44:00] have different styles of packaging.
[44:02] Okay? So, that's something you have to
[44:03] look at. Now, if we go to Piston Zone,
[44:05] this is completely different. Now, this
[44:06] is a whole 180, right? This is like a 10
[44:09] things only stupid people do to their
[44:11] cars. Don't be one. Windshield wipers
[44:13] are a scam. Things they forget to tell
[44:15] you in driving school. Super random,
[44:17] right? Nothing crazy. This channel gets
[44:19] 218,000 views. Started about 5 months
[44:21] ago. Has has a banger here, actually.
[44:23] But, you know, this is obviously more
[44:24] relaxed, right? You can run a channel
[44:26] like this and post every single day.
[44:28] You're not going to get the same amount
[44:29] of views as these guys. You're not going
[44:30] to get 116,000 views in in one day, but
[44:33] now you don't have to post as many
[44:34] times. It's not that competitive. This
[44:36] is another example. A serious warning to
[44:38] all drivers, stop using this engine oil
[44:40] immediately. And this channel is pulling
[44:41] in half a million views a month. Now,
[44:43] the last one that I found for the car
[44:44] niche is this one. And this is just like
[44:46] the best cars that you can buy. Honda
[44:48] strikes back at Toyota. Top three Subaru
[44:50] cars to buy. Six SUVs so reliable you'll
[44:52] regret not buying. You know, blah blah
[44:54] blah, whatever. Boring [ __ ] But if you
[44:56] go to the views, 700K in the last 28
[44:59] days, which is not bad. And this niche
[45:00] I'm assuming has a really high RPM. So,
[45:02] I wouldn't even doubt it if they got
[45:03] $1,000 per 100,000 views. So, we can say
[45:06] that this channel is making $6,900 a
[45:09] month. Nothing too crazy. Packaging is
[45:11] chill, you know. Just get a random
[45:12] picture of the car, red text at the top.
[45:14] [ __ ] it. Don't even put it in the
[45:15] middle, bro. Just let let it lean on the
[45:17] left. Who gives a [ __ ] right? But now,
[45:19] if you hop in this one, you have to do
[45:20] change expressions, AI images, you know,
[45:23] there there's a lot of ideiation behind
[45:25] this. Now, the next one is Vintage
[45:27] Hollywood. This one has too many. Okay,
[45:29] so I just chose a few. Um, we have
[45:30] channels like this that are just kind of
[45:32] all over the place, right? They talk
[45:33] about 30 celebrities who have aged
[45:35] terribly, Val Kilmer's heartbreaking
[45:37] final letter to his fans, random [ __ ]
[45:39] This channel is doing 831,000 per 28
[45:42] days. And if you look at this, you know,
[45:44] first view, you'd be like, "Oh, last 7
[45:45] days, nothing really has popped off. But
[45:47] it doesn't matter because this is
[45:48] evergreen. Never wear these dresses on a
[45:50] talk show." Like, what? 9,200 views,
[45:53] which again is not crazy. High RPM
[45:55] niche. Why not? Now we move into the
[45:58] second channel which is very old
[45:59] Hollywood. This is like golden age
[46:01] Hollywood. I guess this would be like
[46:03] the ' 50s, '60s,7s. Completely different
[46:05] packaging. 1 million views in the last
[46:07] month. More chill. Topics are more
[46:09] relaxed. If we go to Timeless Vintage,
[46:11] which is another channel, they're kind
[46:13] of all over the place as well. Super old
[46:15] Hollywood mixed in with new Hollywood, I
[46:18] guess. 1.1 million views. Here's another
[46:20] one. Different style of packaging, a
[46:21] little bit closer. And it's good to look
[46:23] at channels like this cuz you can see
[46:25] what not to do, right? like this [ __ ] he
[46:27] was trying here definitely definitely a
[46:28] no-go as in like the style of of
[46:30] thumbnail. But going back to my main
[46:32] point, right, level of difficulty is
[46:34] kind of attached to everything else. Do
[46:35] you want to upload every single day? Do
[46:36] you want this to be a little bit more
[46:38] relaxed? And as we saw, micro niches
[46:39] have their own thumbnail styles which
[46:41] require different levels of Photoshop
[46:43] skill or Canva, whatever you use. The
[46:45] amount of uploads does matter as well.
[46:46] It's the slang which is connected to the
[46:48] background music and the voice style,
[46:50] the AI voice you use. I'm I'm sure you
[46:52] guys understand what I'm trying to say
[46:53] here. This decision is obviously going
[46:54] to affect how many views you get. You
[46:56] know, we can't compare this YouTube
[46:58] channel here, half a million views, to
[46:59] RG's Garage, which is doing 1.9, or
[47:02] Garage Heads, which is doing 3.2 cuz
[47:04] it's timesensitive. It's trendy stuff,
[47:06] right? This is more of like quantity.
[47:08] This is building your video portfolio,
[47:10] if that's what you want to call it. And
[47:11] this is just [ __ ] it, send it out, you
[47:14] know, send it out. Who cares? Also,
[47:15] another very important thing I want to
[47:17] mention is just because you're choosing
[47:18] a niche like this doesn't mean it's
[47:19] going to take months to blow up. It
[47:21] could be quicker, right? Maybe like fix
[47:23] things, right? Improve from this. Like I
[47:24] mentioned earlier, why the [ __ ] isn't he
[47:26] putting the text in the middle? Instead
[47:27] of making it red, try yellow. Try, you
[47:29] know, black. He's using images of cars
[47:32] from like eBay or Craigslist. You can
[47:34] definitely make this more appealing.
[47:36] Cool. Cool.
[47:40] So, the craziest thing just happened,
[47:42] and this goes to net information gain.
[47:44] The day after I posted that update
[47:46] video, Google released the documentation
[47:50] of what I was saying, the official
[47:52] documentation. So, I'm going to give you
[47:54] guys a quick recap. Okay, this is
[47:56] actually crazy. And I kind of talked
[47:58] about this in my last YouTube video, the
[47:59] net information gain, and I got a [ __ ]
[48:01] ton of comments of people like, "Oh, no,
[48:03] this is cap. He's he's literally lying.
[48:05] None of this is proven." Isn't it funny?
[48:08] Isn't it funny how the world works? very
[48:10] quickly for those of you that also want
[48:11] to do research on on your end. Um
[48:13] because I did realize what I was saying
[48:14] was kind of crazy um especially without
[48:17] it being backed up or anyone else
[48:19] talking about it. Net information gain
[48:21] on October 18 uh Google filed a patent
[48:23] called contextual e estimation of link
[48:26] information gain and the patent number
[48:28] is US-2020-0349181-
[48:33] A1. Okay, that's that's how that's how
[48:35] far I'm willing to go. Now, the patent,
[48:38] this patent in specific, it was filed on
[48:40] 2018, but it was granted in 2022. Now,
[48:43] it was never used in the actual YouTube
[48:45] algorithm, but on December of 2025, it
[48:49] was presented at the Neure IPS AI
[48:52] conference. The official Google research
[48:55] reports came out on Friday, January 23rd
[48:59] of 2026, 4 days ago from the time I
[49:02] recorded this, but they explain exactly
[49:04] how it works. Now, so the issue that
[49:06] YouTube was having was obviously uh AI
[49:09] generated content since Chad GBT,
[49:11] Claude, Gemini, they can all make very
[49:14] informative kind of like default
[49:16] scripts. They created a filter called
[49:18] Gist that is GIS T. Okay, so information
[49:22] gain is the metric and gist is the tool
[49:26] in charge of giving it a score in that
[49:28] metric. Now, the reason they added the
[49:31] gist filter is because it's expensive to
[49:34] give Gemini 10,000 identical videos.
[49:36] There's no point in that. So, gist
[49:39] allows the AI to pick the best version
[49:42] of the topic and then mathematically
[49:44] block anything else that is too similar
[49:47] to it. So, for example, imagine you and
[49:49] I both make a video about how to bake a
[49:51] cake. And if our scripts are 90%
[49:54] similar, gist will see us as the same
[49:57] data point and it will pick the one with
[49:59] the higher authority score. Everything
[50:01] else it literally deletes from the
[50:03] recommendation pool and that's to save
[50:05] uh processing power. So it creates a
[50:07] redundancy radius. That's what they call
[50:10] it. So if your video falls inside of my
[50:13] radius of of my how to bake a cake
[50:15] video, you don't just rank lower, but
[50:17] you don't actually exist in the
[50:18] recommendation pool. Like you your video
[50:20] is not going to get recommended. So
[50:22] yeah, again, the documentation was
[50:24] uploaded on January 23rd, but who knows
[50:26] how long this has actually been in the
[50:28] algorithm, which explains why all of
[50:30] these new brand niches have worked for
[50:32] me, right? Because no one else is doing
[50:34] it. There is no one else to compare my
[50:36] videos to. I had the highest authority
[50:38] because I was the only one doing it. You
[50:40] know, if you go to any of my YouTube
[50:41] videos, if you go to the recent course
[50:43] videos, I'm like, "Dude, you have to
[50:44] start brand new niches because for some
[50:46] reason they're just popping off." So, we
[50:48] were right the whole time. and we just
[50:49] didn't have words or names to to give it
[50:52] because you know Google never announced
[50:54] it. So this all ties back to semantic
[50:57] IDs. Gist cannot calculate information
[51:00] gain of a video without semantic IDs. So
[51:04] here's here's an example of how it
[51:05] works. Okay. When you post a video, the
[51:07] AI assigns semantic IDs to your video.
[51:10] You you have to think of semantic IDs uh
[51:12] like a GPS coordinate for your for your
[51:14] video's topic. If you make a a copycat
[51:16] video, you are standing on the same
[51:18] exact GPS coordinate as the viral video
[51:21] you're copying. The algorithm sees it
[51:23] and it's like, okay, there's already a
[51:25] building here, right? And that would be
[51:26] that viral video. So, information gain
[51:28] is the measurement of how far you are
[51:31] from the existing content. Now, it
[51:33] doesn't mean you have to make something
[51:34] completely different or original, but
[51:36] you need to have a slightly different
[51:39] GPS address or or coordinate. So you
[51:42] need to move your semantic IDs enough
[51:43] just to prove that you're adding new
[51:45] territory to that map. Now uh according
[51:47] to YouTube engineering papers in 2024
[51:50] 2025 it explicitly states that they
[51:52] replaced random ID tables with semantic
[51:55] IDs to better understand relationships
[51:57] between videos. So yeah just essentially
[51:59] means removing irrelevant videos or
[52:01] copycats. That's what it is. So this
[52:03] means that we actually made something
[52:06] really really useful and that's with Vid
[52:07] Ninjas and the sauce. So, I put one of
[52:09] my own uh scripts in on the Romero
[52:12] channel. Um the one where I talk about
[52:14] YouTube automation, and I was curious to
[52:15] see how it works. So, if you haven't
[52:17] seen this yet, um it essentially tells
[52:19] me every semantic ID that I'm hitting
[52:20] within my script. And it also gives me
[52:22] like a full recap of what I'm saying,
[52:24] right? For example, minor deduction. The
[52:26] phrase Google developer files is vague.
[52:28] Specific document names would strengthen
[52:30] semantic ID fingerprints. So, in my
[52:33] video when I said Google developer
[52:35] files, it was so vague that the
[52:37] algorithm did not consider it or give it
[52:40] a semantic ID. So, in Google's eyes,
[52:42] it's like I never said it. But if I was
[52:44] to have given the specific document
[52:46] number in the video, when someone would
[52:48] Google that specific uh term, my video
[52:51] would appear on Google and it would also
[52:53] appear in the recommended of other
[52:54] similar videos that talk about Google's
[52:56] algorithm. And Vid Ninjas also tells me
[52:58] which ones I'm missing. for example,
[53:00] deep neural networks missing technical
[53:02] depth to YouTube's DNN ranking
[53:04] architecture. Uh, collaborative
[53:06] filtering script mentions co-visitation
[53:08] but doesn't use the established ML term.
[53:10] So, when I talked about co-visitation in
[53:13] my script, again, it didn't consider it
[53:14] because I didn't use the correct term.
[53:16] The actual technology behind semantic
[53:18] IDs that YouTube uses is called RQ-V AE,
[53:22] which is residual quantized varial
[53:25] autoenccoder.
[53:27] I call them semantic IDs cuz it's
[53:29] easier. Okay. And there was also a few
[53:31] fuckups. So, some claims appear
[53:32] exaggerated or unverifiable. The January
[53:35] 14th, 2026 update and 31 days of users
[53:38] activity are not confirmed in public
[53:40] documentation. Whoops. I don't remember
[53:42] where I got that from. It wasn't
[53:44] actually January 14th. It was January
[53:46] 23rd. But that date didn't happen yet.
[53:48] All right. Here's a confession. I come
[53:49] from the future. Now, the best part
[53:51] about Vid Ninjas is that with this click
[53:53] of a button, it will refine the script
[53:55] and it will fix everything that I
[53:57] missed. If there was a specific word I
[53:59] missed in order to to build a semantic
[54:00] ID to give context to the algorithm,
[54:03] something that Vid Ninjas understands
[54:05] what you're trying to say, but in
[54:06] Google's eyes, it won't understand. Do
[54:08] you know what I mean? So, yeah, with
[54:09] that, it fixes it. Again, guys, one of
[54:11] its kind. So, yeah, just wanted to make
[54:13] that quick uh update for you guys. Um,
[54:15] anyways, I need to shave because I know
[54:17] I look homeless right now. Uh, so I'm
[54:20] going to go do that.
[54:23] So before you post a video on your
[54:25] channel, just know that there's a new
[54:26] strategy. And this is something that I
[54:28] discovered within, you know, the last
[54:29] few months of going into Google's
[54:31] algorithm, going into YouTube's
[54:32] algorithm, and seeing how the whole
[54:34] function works. Nowadays, it's not hop
[54:36] into a niche and just start posting
[54:37] videos. Okay? There is a strategy to
[54:39] this. And the way that I came up with
[54:41] this is, you know, from seeing so many
[54:44] people struggling to get impressions,
[54:46] not views, impressions. I came to the
[54:48] conclusion that when you launch a
[54:50] channel, it has to be a specific way,
[54:51] especially in 2026. When I say launch a
[54:54] channel, I mean the titles and the
[54:56] structure format of them. And that's
[54:57] what I'm going to show you guys right
[54:58] now. There is five different styles of
[55:01] titles that you can do or video topics.
[55:03] There is the pillar, the anchor, the
[55:06] cluster, the collision, and the bridge.
[55:08] The pillar node would be the first video
[55:11] on your channel. Okay? Now, this video
[55:13] is not meant to get views. Okay? It's
[55:15] not meant to go viral. It's not meant to
[55:17] do anything besides tell the YouTube
[55:19] algorithm what your channel's about.
[55:21] Using the history of cheese, right, as a
[55:24] niche or as a topic that, you know, I
[55:27] would be going for hypothetically. In
[55:28] this example, my title would be the
[55:31] complete history of cheese from ancient
[55:33] caves to modern kitchens. I would
[55:35] probably switch, you know, this part
[55:36] right here, but that's the idea, right?
[55:38] super boring title, super um specific
[55:42] and broad. But when the algorithm sees
[55:44] that and it sees it's the first video on
[55:46] your channel, every single video after
[55:48] that, it is going to associate it with
[55:50] cheese and or the history of cheese.
[55:53] Again, the pillar node, your first
[55:55] video, this is your video's identity or
[55:57] your channel's identity. It's not trying
[55:59] to go viral and it's not chasing a
[56:01] trend. It's basically you walking up to
[56:03] YouTube and saying, "Hey, I am the
[56:05] cheese channel. I cover history about
[56:07] cheese." Now moving on to the anchor
[56:09] node which should be uh the second,
[56:11] third, fourth upload. What an anchor
[56:13] node is is video titles or video ideas
[56:16] with the intention of targeting very
[56:18] popular things. For example, the history
[56:20] of cheddar, you know, cheddar cheese,
[56:22] the world's most popular cheese. How
[56:24] parmesan became Italy's most famous
[56:26] export. Mozzarella from water buffalo to
[56:29] pizza. Again, the titles don't have to
[56:30] be this [ __ ] right? Notice how it's
[56:33] mozzarella, parmesan, and cheddar,
[56:35] right? You're targeting things that are
[56:37] very very popular. And essentially what
[56:39] the anchor works as is search bait. When
[56:42] people search for cheddar, parmesan,
[56:44] mozzarella, which is the most searched
[56:46] for cheeses, your video will get shown
[56:48] to them. Again, still nothing crazy. All
[56:50] right. Now, the next uploads are going
[56:52] to be the cluster node. Now, the cluster
[56:54] node is just things in your in your top
[56:56] in your niche, right? This is nothing
[56:58] specific. Some title examples would be
[57:00] when priests use cheese to predict the
[57:02] future. The secret bacteria that makes
[57:04] every cheese taste different. Nothing
[57:06] crazy. This is like targeting cheese
[57:08] fanatics, right? Whatever. Moving on to
[57:10] the next style of titles and video
[57:12] ideas. It's the collision node. This one
[57:14] is my favorite. Okay. Now, a collision
[57:17] node is like uh not clickbait, but how
[57:20] do I explain it? It's just like out
[57:21] there, you know? It's let me just read
[57:24] from from here, right? A collision video
[57:26] has nothing to do with any other
[57:28] specific niche, right? It doesn't invite
[57:30] anybody over politely to your channel.
[57:32] It just shows up on the home screen of
[57:34] every person on the internet. That's the
[57:35] idea and the objective behind the
[57:37] collision node. You know, fans of your
[57:38] niche, fans of other niches, people
[57:40] who've never thought about your topic
[57:41] once in their life. And the objective is
[57:43] to make people stop scrolling. Now,
[57:45] examples of collision nodes would be the
[57:48] cheese that's literally made with live
[57:50] maggots and it's legal. I don't know
[57:53] about you, but I if I saw that on my
[57:55] homepage, I would probably stop. I'd be
[57:57] like, "What the [ __ ] are you talking
[57:58] about?" And by reading that title, you
[58:00] can sort of imagine what the thumbnail
[58:01] is going to look like, right? Another
[58:03] example of a collision node for the
[58:05] title would be, "The US government once
[58:07] stockpiled 2 billion pounds of cheese."
[58:10] Again, you could imagine what this
[58:12] thumbnail would look like. Um, it has a
[58:14] lot of viral potential, nothing in
[58:15] specific. It is just a interesting
[58:18] title, right? Interesting concept. The
[58:20] tone of your collision node should be
[58:22] shock danger conflict curiosity.
[58:25] That's what makes people stop. And the
[58:26] last style of title would be the bridge
[58:28] node. This one's very self-explanatory,
[58:30] right? This is going for people in
[58:32] different niches and trying to bring
[58:34] them over to yours. For example, the
[58:36] science of why cheese is literally
[58:38] addictive. This right here would capture
[58:40] the attention of people that their
[58:42] homepage is full of science [ __ ] How
[58:44] the cheese industry became a $900
[58:46] billion empire. This steals the finance
[58:49] viewers. Gordon Ramsay versus history.
[58:51] Was ancient Roman cheese actually good?
[58:54] I don't understand that title, but but
[58:55] it steals the food of yours with this
[58:58] strategy here. It doesn't have to be all
[59:00] in a specific order. This is the closest
[59:03] mathematical road map or blueprints to
[59:05] get impressions with YouTube and Google,
[59:07] right? If you follow these steps and you
[59:09] do these style of thumbnails in this
[59:10] order, I'm not saying it's going to work
[59:12] 100%. But mathematically, based on how
[59:16] Google, Gemini, and YouTube are coded,
[59:18] this should get you impressions. This
[59:20] should give you authority within your
[59:21] niche. Now, below this video, you're
[59:23] going to see this link here. It's going
[59:25] to take you to this. You guys can go
[59:26] ahead and check out the dashboard. Um,
[59:28] understand it a little bit more. Ignore
[59:30] the dates. 4 months is not is not
[59:32] correct. You know, we just kind of
[59:33] drafted this up for you. Now, for those
[59:35] of you that are a little bit skeptical
[59:36] about this, I know this is the first
[59:37] time you've you've you hear this um at
[59:39] least this strategy, but I'm going to
[59:41] prove it to you very quickly that I'm
[59:43] not just saying [ __ ] okay? This is me
[59:45] asking Gemini directly. Okay, to be
[59:48] completely direct, no, you will not find
[59:50] the terms collision, bridge, or cluster
[59:52] in any official YouTube Creator Academy
[59:54] documentation. Those are highle industry
[59:56] frameworks created by those uh by top
[59:58] strategists and agencies to make sense
[60:00] of the algorithm. It is completely valid
[60:02] to question if this is just a guru
[60:05] theory. But while the termin terminology
[60:07] is ours, the strategy is 100% proven
[60:10] because it is reversed engineered
[60:12] directly from YouTube's actual
[60:15] documented algorithmic mechanics. It's
[60:17] the underlying math of the platform. I'm
[60:20] not teaching a hack. I am teaching how
[60:22] to feed the algorithm exactly what it is
[60:24] programmed to reward. Now that we're on
[60:26] topic, if I open an incognito tab and go
[60:29] to Gemini and I ask it who was the first
[60:31] person/YouTube coach to discover
[60:34] slashinttroduced semantic ids, Gemini
[60:37] and net information gain. The primary
[60:40] person credited with breaking the news
[60:41] and popular popularizing these specific
[60:44] technical concepts is Romero. Often
[60:46] referred to at Nope, he's okay spelled
[60:49] my name wrong. While the underlying
[60:50] technology semantic IDs was developed by
[60:52] Google and YouTube engineer engineers
[60:54] like uh Devanch Tanden, it was Romero
[60:57] who translated these Google developer
[60:59] files into strategy for creators. Now
[61:02] I'm just showing you guys this because
[61:03] you know a lot of people every single
[61:04] time and for the last four or five
[61:06] months that I've been saying this
[61:07] especially semantic IDs and net
[61:09] information gain everyone called me a
[61:10] liar. This is coming directly from
[61:12] Google that yes it's true. Romero was
[61:14] credited as the first creator to
[61:15] discover and translate these highlevel
[61:17] technical leaks into actionable
[61:18] strategies for the general public. He
[61:20] did not invent a technology. No [ __ ] He
[61:23] acted as the primary pioneer of the
[61:25] information. Romero is a coach who first
[61:28] identified the January 14th, 2026 core
[61:31] update as the moment these technologies
[61:33] were fully integrated into the live
[61:36] YouTube ingestion system. He is the one
[61:38] who popularized the term net information
[61:40] gain and the gist filter. Romero's
[61:43] discovery wasn't just finding a paper.
[61:45] It was connecting the dots between three
[61:46] separate things. Leaked developer files,
[61:49] Google patents, and the Gemini
[61:50] integration. In short, Google built the
[61:52] engine, but Romero was the first person
[61:54] on YouTube to open the hood and explain
[61:56] to creators exactly how the new gears
[61:58] were tuning. So, if you're launching a
[62:00] brand new channel or you're not getting
[62:02] impressions, this right here is what you
[62:04] want to do. Click the link that I'm
[62:05] going to send you guys below and study
[62:07] what it says. But, yeah, you get the
[62:08] point. So, this was just an
[62:09] introduction. And of course, I'm going
[62:10] to be making a little bit more videos
[62:12] and showing you guys um examples of how
[62:14] to make each one of these titles. Okay.
[62:16] Now, as for how many to do for each, I
[62:19] don't necessarily know. Got to start
[62:20] testing that a little bit more. Um so, I
[62:22] expect you guys to to also start
[62:24] freestyling and and figuring out what
[62:26] the best format is for all of these
[62:27] nodes. But, I do know for a fact that
[62:29] the pillar node should go first. And I
[62:32] would say low-key maybe two or three of
[62:33] these. Maybe two or three of these first
[62:35] before posting anything else. That's
[62:37] just my my gut feeling. Bye-bye.
