What is the arrow that is in the pic
Probably nothing. He's had a habit of putting circles and arrows in pics for a long while. It's just to draw attention and isn't actually pointing anything out
 
I'm not surprised, this guy grew up on social media, he knows all the tricks.
It's smart, it also gets people to stay on the photo longer looking for something. Keeps driving the engagement up

It’s also pretty sad tbh lol. The fact that he needs arrows and circles to bait people into lingering longer on their posts is just pathetic lmao.

It's nothing new. Youtubers have been doing that shit in thumbnails from the dawn of time.
Also, I've heard snapchat pays influencers a fuckton of money, which incentivizes them to use every trick in the book to get people's attention

Times like these makes you realize how profitable your attention is.
 
Quality content (like long form YouTube content) doesn't need these hooks. Most social media nonsense is a waste of everyone's time, and the idea that you need stupid little tricks to keep people watching so you can bring in the ad content is sad. Just make good content, and the revenue will follow.

Anyway, Jacob's hot.

lmao that's a fucking lie. look at someone like mr beast. most subscribed channel on youtube. his content is utter shit. just crap to keep kids watching. overly edited thumbnails. overly edited videos. he pulls every trick in the book so he's made millions off it.
the people who make good content aren't prioritized by the algorithm, so their content doesn't get promoted onto people's recommended. so they don't get the subscribers or views. youtubers who make genuinely good, creative, well developed content get paid dust

I did say quality content. His is shit.

There are a great many YT channels making engaging and good content with high production values, making a lot of money from the ad rev.

unless they make kid's content, they're not making much from ad revenue because youtube punishes content that isn't child friendly, as they deem it to not be advertiser friendly. they likely make more money from side ventures like merch
