Traffic was NOT coming from people clicking a link on Linkedin. Linkedin allows you to upload videos, which I did. My video post was about 3 minutes long, yet people watched the Linkedin video for dozens of hours. At this stage, we are still on Linkedin, we never left. There are no external/outbound links. Next, a few virtual friends ask for YouTube link to share the video on Facebook. I'm exclusively on LI and X, I don't like Meta products (except when they are open-source). But they insisted, and I uploaded the video to YouTube. When I published the article 2 days ago, the total view number was 209. It had been static for months. Today, the video has gotten 372 total views since it was published. As soon as I shared my article on HN, the view jumped from 209 to 372. Here's the breakdown of the cumulated views after upload. Day 1: 44 views (most of which probably came from external sources. But that's just 44 views. Day 2: 170 views. At this stage, the video ranks at the top for its keywords on YouTube and in Google SERPs. Day 3: 173 views. Day 4: 173 views. Day 5: 173 views. Day 6: 173 views... Keep in mind I'm sharing the total number of views here.
