Viewership has been abysmal. As previously noted, ordinary Youtube folks (i.e. not Youtube stars) are finding fewer and fewer views of their videos. Youtube has tweaked their search algorithms in a way that popular people get more views, and the less popular, smaller channels, like those of us mere mortals, get fewer and fewer views.<\/p>\n<p>I did a simple experiment: I posted 6 of the same videos I put on Youtube, up on Flickr. Within 4 hours, they&#8217;ve had more views than they received on Youtube in a week.<\/p>\n<p>I posted one video on DailyMotion. Within 24 hours its had half as many views as Youtube generated in a week.<\/p>\n<p>That seems to confirm its not the content that is the problem &#8211; its Youtube that is the problem. Youtube is prioritizing search results in ways that harm most Youtube video producers and favor a select group.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll have another post on this topic in a moment.<\/p>\n<h6 class=\"zemanta-related-title\" style=\"font-size: 1em;\">Related articles<\/h6>\n<ul class=\"zemanta-article-ul zemanta-article-ul-image\" style=\"margin: 0;
