- JohnTHaller 6y agoA large percentage of followers that don't engage in watching videos hurts you in the YouTube algorithm. Twitter and Instagram likely just want to show high user numbers.
- crznp 6y agoRather: fake youtube followers have a negative ROI. Perhaps because they don't matter, but perhaps because they are more difficult to create or Google is better at spotting fakes.

- b1ur 6y agoThat's my guess. On twitter/ig, advertising deals would be done directly between accounts and advertisers, so the social media provider itself wouldn't really care; fraudulent engagement numbers are third-party. YouTube is different, where the host also provides the advertising service, and fake numbers hurt Google's bottom line. So they're probably both harsher on fakes and better at detecting them
- cwkoss 6y agoOr maybe search priority is related to percentage of followers that interacted with a given video
