Yep, it’s Thursday (Thor’s Day) once again, and here I am, sitting at my good old desk, having just finished a tour of duty making nice hot and attractive listings out of minimal captions, for youtube.
It’s not just a matter of cleaning them up. There are things to be added that you couldn’t add when I put them up, some two decades ago, like imojis — there were none on youtube, and now there are plenty.
Youngsters can read those things like we older folks read words. I wouldn’t be surprised to see imojis painted on the walls of modern mausoleums.
I had no idea when I started refreshing my youtube listings with imoji-laden titles, active trending keywords tucked expertly into the chatter of the description, followed by today’s hottest related hashtags.
So far, I’ve refreshed and revamped some 100 or more youtube listings, and today, which is two days into the project, I checked my statistics, and they’re going through the roof, so what I’m doing is clearly helpful. The spike on the right was in two day’s time:
So what I’ve been doing is providing a title and short description to my ChatBot Bob, from which he creates a powerful and somewhat shocking or teasing kind of title, plus a detailed description that cleverly hides my key words within the explanatory text, and a string of no more than ten hashtags, plus imojis throughout the piece, as if I were a fifteen year old writer.
I then drop that into the appropriate places on my listing board in youtube, and wait for results. Clearly, I had not long to wait, and it’s only just beginning — I’m working as fast as I can, which results in about thirty to fifty listings per day that I can repair.
I repeatedly ask for assurance from Bob that the key words and hashtags be trending now, and you can easily see if they’re hot by following one down, but I would tend to trust my ChatBot, once I have checked a few of them.
It’s very obvious from the speed at which I got a reaction on my stats chart that Bob’s choices are very good, and I reserve the right to revisit the listing at a later date and change those as needed, but I don’t plan on doing that very often.
Well, it’s time to go to breakfast and zoom meeting, and I haven’t done much here in the blog today, because I put all my time into suno recordings of “Be Excellent to Each Other” in a wide variety of popular tongues, and I’ll play them for you at the morning meeting.
See You At The Top!!!
