Trying to understand the horror of the unknown of how popularity and viewers work can be such a sinkhole.
I don't know, they don't know, and you don't know.
Since google and the entire algorithm that we have, with the self-help grifter industry complex, flummoxed on how to crack it. With the scams abound, on what is or not which resonates. Not that this eldritch lottery that continues to somewhere that can't be understood.
Quaint, if it was a reductionistic business opportunity then if it was going to be simple. Creativity persists, though, pulling and pushing through a mystery that's with a slippery meta that shifts beyond our wakes.
Better to not dawdle at such mystery.
