The name is Strategist. Born Strategist. and as a gamer, incorruptible content creator and advocate of high quality entertainment I have often wondered how far some will go for YouTube stardom? Not just for the attention, but for the monetary gains that go along with it. For whether we believe it or not, there are a great deal of people that are all to willing to renounce their moral values for financial gain. Don't believe me? Just go to YouTube and I'm sure you'll find something that'll prove my point, if you haven't already.
That said, many don't mind doing less than questionable things to become a YouTube success. Think about it. How many YouTubers have you seen begging for likes and subscriptions? How many times have you seen misleading thumbnails and simplistic titles to entice potential viewers? Or scantily clad women attempting to utilize sex appeal to garner attention? Trust me, the list of shameless practices are numerous.
But, just because I don't agree with it, doesn't mean it's an ineffective strategy. In fact, it's a very effective strategy, and that's why they use it. And as a result, YouTube is overpopulated by dull, unimaginative, drivel. And that's the problem. For the majority of people have become content with crap. Simply put, low standards lead to low quality content.
And make no mistake, this isn't sour grapes. For I too have had many opportunities to do the same questionable things, but I didn't. Why? Because I hate hypocrites.
With that said, what are your thoughts? What are your opinions? Are you willing to sacrifice your integrity for YouTube stardom? Let us know below.
