đź YouTube is a Game â Here's How to Win đ§” 1. YouTube isn't a platform. It's a game. And the game has rules. Master them, and you'll grow. Ignore them, and you'll quit wondering why no one watches. Letâs break it down: đ 2. Every video = a level.Each viewer = a player.Your thumbnail + title? Thatâs the box art that makes them pick it off the shelf. Your job: Deliver on the picture, and make the build fun. 3. Imagine giving someone a Lego setâŠBut instead of letting them build it, you hand them the finished toy. Thatâs what most YouTubers do. They skip the journey. They give away the answer too soon. Retention = destroyed. â 4. Viewers donât want lectures. They want stories. Because stories are emotional puzzles. Give them the pieces. Let them solve it .Thatâs what makes a video feel like a conversationânot a monologue. 5. Hereâs the trap: Creators try to prove theyâre smart. But the viewer doesnât care how smart you are. They care how smart you make them feel. Thatâs the game. Thatâs the win condition. 6. So next time you make a video, ask:đ§© Did I show them the picture on the box?đ§± Did I give them the bricks to build it?đ Did I let them feel smart? If yes â you're not just playing the game. You're winning it.
