YouTube uses an automated process to determine which content they should display on their recommendations and trending lists. Determining the amount of "valid" streams is also based on an automated process, the algorithm. Just as in any other social networking site, this information is not made public. However, we can do some things to possibly not get our streams filtered out at a higher rate, such as, avoiding bot-like and spam behaviors.
Sharing the song is a priority. Jimin himself has expressed his desire for their works to reach more people. How should we share his work?
1. Share the link to the audio/video without using shortened links (i.e., bitly).
2. Post the audio/video link as a song of its own.
3. Share and embed it on social media, messaging platforms, websites, and portals.
4. Make sure that autoplay is turned off when you embed. Streams from autoplayed videos get filtered out.
5. Share the link or the QR code of the song in your advertisements and projects.
YouTube content that have great engagement are more likely to land on the top results of YouTube Trending, YouTube search and Google search.
Moreover, sharing an audio/video will impact its charting on YouTube's Popular Videos globally and in countries and territories. This charting helps promote the song, and gives it wider reach.
Introducing an audio or video of a song to more listeners impacts not only streaming numbers and charting. By actively promoting Jimin's song, you are helping increase the level of awareness, interest, engagement, and loyalty towards the song, Jimin's other works, and Jimin himself among fans, non-fans, and/or the general public. For example, sharing an amazing song can convert a non-fan into a casual fan, or a casual fan into a more passionate fan. Such exposure may also build or strengthen positive associations (thoughts, impressions, or beliefs of the viewer or listener) towards Jimin and his artistry.
