I'm testing a hack to going viral. Today's day 17 on the road to reaching 100,000 YouTube subscribers. And after studying recent how-to style shorts that went viral, I found a pattern. Number one, they're between 4 and 7 seconds long. Number two, there's no talking, just showing. And number three, they use super simple edits with raw audio. So yesterday, I created my first video following this pattern and posted it. I will declare this video a win if YouTube analytics says that the views are higher than what's normal for other shorts on my channel, even if it's not viral yet. So, here's the video, then the results. Now, on that video, views are 2.1 times higher than what's normal across my other YouTube shorts, and people watch the video almost four complete times. So, we posted another video today and we'll be sharing those results tomorrow.
