4 Sneaky YouTube Tricks That Force Viewers to Love Your Videos

each of these youtubers are using a sneaky trick in the videos you can see on screen right now can you guess what it is all of them went from regular everyday people to some of the most loved creators on the planet but something they don't have in common is the time it took them to hit extreme levels of growth why did the sun blow up so fast whilst others took years to get anywhere and what was

it they all eventually discovered that enabled them to generate millions of views with every video they made i wanted to find out so i analyzed hundreds of videos and discovered four sneaky tricks that didn't just transform their content but actually force you to like them more in fact using these things could be the game changer you've been waiting for with one of them being potentially the best news you've ever heard because it will fill you with

confidence and give you more ideas talking of game changers let's start with the first trick a youtuber used to create what i consider to be a game-changing video for them and it blows my mind that more people are not talking about this because it is genius ryan treyan was doing well as a creator but he had a problem in that some of his videos would do amazing and others not so much to pardon the pressure there

was another gigantic issue which she probably gonna come up against too and that's when you're in a niche where the answer to more views seems to be spend more money and do crazy stunts how could you possibly grow if you don't want to blow your life savings or put your body on the line and that's where this first sneaky trick comes into play because ryan found an amazing solution and what's crazy is it's hiding in plain

sight let's see if you can guess what it is as i explain the almost cheeky way he solved the problem with this video here so in this video ryan sits in the world's quietest room in an attempt to beat a world record but that's not why this video blew up in the intro he sets up that sitting in this room is rumored to drive people insane and he makes out it could be torture ryan stays until

he beats the record and at the end they reveal that sitting in the quiet room isn't dangerous at all so have you spotted the almost hilarious thing ryan has done here let's look at this on a really simplified level this video should have been called i sat in silence for 45 minutes because that is literally all that happened but the way he presented this idea with his thumbnail and title turned it into an exciting low-cost challenge

but an exciting title isn't enough to make a viral hit so to ensure this isn't the world's most boring video in his intro he quickly set some stakes that doing this challenge was potentially very dangerous with previous people who attempted it losing their minds now you might be thinking well that's a lie but actually it's smart because there is a well-known urban legend about this place that it does drive you crazy so what ryan actually ended

up making was an educational video that exposed the truth about this myth the stakes he added to it in the intro and ongoing forced the viewer to want to know what happens next and then he simply uses sound effects and editing to add more tension allowing ryan to turn what is basically just him sitting in a dark room in silence doing nothing into 20 million views it's one of the smartest youtube videos i've seen because it

solved the dangerous challenge and money issue and had amazing results so what was ryan's sneaky youtube trick well it's that you can turn anything into a viral story all you have to do is think about how to present an idea so it creates anticipation and if you're really smart you'll combine that with this next pattern i discovered that once again hides in plain sight so if you've ever tried to make a video you've probably sat down

and started planning and gone how fiddlesticks do i start this bad mama jammer and it's hard right but the biggest youtubers in the world figured out something super simple that enables them to get really high retention solve this problem and allows them to create the perfect introduction every time and what's funny is you're going to start spotting this everywhere now because many of them are using it in every video they make but what is it and

is it actually something any creator can use let's see if you can guess what they're doing from these short clips delivery i ordered 10 000 amazon packages and i have no idea what's in any of them we are currently surrounded by countless sharks maybe even a thousand i don't think it's that many and in this backpack it's a hundred grand and if you retrieve that hundred thousand dollars in cash i'll give it to your number one

fan oh to get some money eh now you're probably wondering what is it they're doing so to help i've written their scripts on screen now and i'll explain so every single one of these youtubers in the first line of their video tells the entire story and what that does is it sets up what's at stake the hero the conflict and it creates anticipation and that builds retention and hooks a viewer let me get changed now the

reason this works is because the viewer straight away knows what's happening meaning there is no room for confusion you're not gonna waste my time with five minutes of rubbish until you finally give me any good information so if you let them in on what's happening fast and then spend the rest of the video showing them why that matters you'll keep them hooked but can you do this too well yes of course try it but i need

to be honest with you although it sounds easy knowing by writers is one of the hardest things to do don't beat yourself up at the start but ed you hypocrite if it's so good why didn't you use it in the intro of this video well there's two reasons for that firstly i did it just wasn't the opening line look here's the script and secondly because i decided to use the next thing i discovered i'm about to

show you instead because i think it's one of the most powerful tricks out there but first let's have a look at the big youtuber third sneaky trick now this is the one i mentioned in the intro that youtubers use to actually make you like them more seriously now what's funny is it's probably the exact opposite of what you'd expect it to be and i think it's something that nearly every creator starts out fearing but when they

realize that they need to embrace it and show it off they start to make videos that get view numbers like this see if you can spot it in these clips here but i'm so thankful for everything for real and this is actually making me so upset because it's happening with my own family it gave me permission to build to let you guys know did you guess it let me drop you some more hints you know that

person you follow on social media who's super hot and has the perfect body and it's always on holiday how do they make you feel not great right and let's be honest do you even like them no you don't you just seem to torture yourself following them but sadly this kind of content has set up the idea that people have to show themselves being perfect and as you're about to find out it's literally the opposite i mean

which do you prefer from these two stories story one at the age of 10 john took to the streets to sell christmas cards to help support his family they were so poor they only had 27 cents to their name as time passed he managed to land a job and took out a 700 loan which he invested into his own product and attempted to sell door-to-door sleeping in his car he tried to get by today john paul

de gea's net worth is 2.7 billion as a result of this product john paul mitchell systems versus story two his mother let out a final cry as a newborn baby entered the world he opened his eyes and took his first glimpse at the planet where he was already one of the richest men in history donald trump went on to you know the rest of the story the first one will win every time because viewers are not

perfect they have insecurities and problems so they love to watch people like them struggle to overcome them what they heavily dislike is when everything is handed to someone on a plate and it's why you'll now notice some of the best youtubers in the world showing their flaws vulnerabilities and more heavily feature when things go wrong or get tough because that's what makes a story so relatable and human thus hooking a viewer can't believe we just said

thus which brings us on to the trick massive youtubers use daily which is an extension of my previous point and the one i used in the intro of this video so let's see if you can spot them from these short clips if someone was following you do you think you'd notice what would you do if you only had seven days to live how would you like to make millions by pressing a few buttons on your computer

did you spot it those videos play off one of the sneakiest retention hacks you'll ever find and it's to do with the viewer's brain to really understand this try this next the next time you watch a good film or a tv show or a great youtube video try and catch yourself talking to yourself now i promise you will do this what you'll find is as you watch along you'll start to put yourself in a character's shoes

as you see their flaws in yourself and the result of this is in your mind you literally become the hero in the story and you start questioning their actions questions like if my parents had died when i was young what would have happened to me would i have wasted all my money on supercars or would i have tried to defend gotham would i take a throat sweet to sort out my croaky voice or would i just

embrace it and that's what these youtubers sneaky intros do super fast they show a situation the view will relate to which fires up their brain and makes the viewer talk to themselves and say i do that or oh gosh that's me or can i live without social media and then they're all suddenly pulled into the content and boom another viral hit and that is the ultimate trick these top youtubers all understand very well a video shouldn't

be a one-sided lecture it should become a two-way conversation that fires up the viewers internal dialogue and the simplest way to achieve this can be to ask the viewer a question in your intro so why was it some of these creators blew up so fast whilst others took years to get anywhere well there's a lot of reasons but in truth the simple pattern you'll find on top youtube channels is a combination of all of these four

things you've learned about today and the fact that they all just took different lengths of times to discover that the more relatable your videos the more human you are the more you think outside the box and overcome your problems and the more your videos start to feel like a two-way conversation with your viewers the better you become at hooking people and the faster you'll grow but there's still one gigantic issue that everyone faces and it's this

you now know some of the most powerful tricks to hook viewers going but if you can't deliver that information in an engaging way it's useless so to make sure you're equipped to really take advantage of all of the things i've just taught you watch this video here to learn how two of the biggest youtubers on the planet hook viewers with some simple tricks you're gonna love
