Hipset Boost: A little app we made to help you get subscribers on YouTube
- maddddddddddddd 14y agohow to get more subscribers: don't let people watch your videos. #GENIOUS
- schlichtm 14y agoThis isn't something you should do for every video. That would definitely stunt your growth. Boost is something you should use once and a while with the specific purpose of converting your existing fans on other social networks to subscribers on YouTube.
- stcredzero 14y agoApril fool's joke?
- schlichtm 14y agoDirect link to the app: http://boost.hipset.com http://boost.hipset.com
- dechols 14y agoThis is evil. Please don't force users to do something they can already choose to do.
- schlichtm 14y agoThe best use for this is if you wanted to have content, other than your usual content, that is exclusive to fans that specifically subscribe to you on YouTube.
- chrischen 14y agoWhat, like pay to download a movie instead of torrenting it?
- _lex 14y agoI think evil is a little strong. It's similar to the "pay with a tweet" and the "sign up to our newsletter for a discount" schemes companies regularly run.
- tshadwell 14y agoWhy do you embed the video anyway? Wouldn't it make more sense to insert the video /after/ the user has subscribed?
- rsingla 14y agoI can't stop myself from reading this as Hipster Boost. Take that for what you will.
- edwardunknown 14y agoYeeeaaah... you know what happens, I don't watch the video. Maybe this is a good idea but I'll never find out.
- wtracy 14y agoIf the exclusive video is hosted on YouTube, I'm struggling to understand what sort of API Hipset is using to control access.
