I’ve posted dozens of videos which have generated either 6 figure or 7 figures views by following these two key principles. 1 - Trend stacking: Instead of creating a video just on one topic, collide two trending topics together to appeal to a much wider audience. For example, I just posted a video on Jordan Peterson & Elon Musk which lead to nearly half a million views. This helps draw views from audiences of two of the most popular and influential people on the plant. 2 - Check out large media channels for out performers. If, for example, you go onto CNBC or Piers Morgan’s channel, two media outlets that cover a wide range of topics, you can check to see which videos are far outperforming the rest. Doing this you can see which topics people are CURRENTLY extra interested in, likely leading to increased views.
