is the strategy considered bad conduct?

If you do a tag video that asks about your favorite youtubers, or if you refer to a diy that they did (like you tried and loved a recipie) is it considered bad conduct to tag them in the video tags to get more views by associating yourself with them?

If the video is based on your favourite YouTubers then its ok, otherwise don't use other channels in tags as you can get closed by Spam404 :/

as long as they are relevant, tag them.

Send them a threatening note telling them if they don't accept, they wont be able to feed the cat in the morning due to a....unexplained incident.


So ya, its fine, I believe so anyway

I would not make a video with a whole list of favorite YouTubers and then have them listed in the description. It could easily appear to be spammy.

What I would be comfortable recommending is making a video of a few of your favorite YouTubers, just a few, and make them into groups so that it appears focused, and not spammy. One video on a few of your favorite female vloggers, one for male vloggers, one for favorite science channels, news channels, etc.

Okido. Thanks everyone. I was just curious because there was a list of tag questions, and one was your favorite youtuber and then talking about them for a little bit so you can tag them in the video tags. The idea didn't sit right with me, using their work for more views on your channel.

Thanks again!
