Why does it take cooking YouTubers 40 minutes to explain how to make Mac and Cheese?

>> No.19095661

Ad revenue.

because the algorithm has dictated that the videos which get the most views (and therefore the most monetization) are 40 minutes long

Why are you like this? Why didn't you just search for something like "most profitable length YouTube"? Faggot know-it-all you are. You really ought to stop, and not just for the benefit of others, sure, it's annoying to us, but it's faggot-defining for you.

But lots of dumb zoomie kids will purely based on the fact their favourite 'e-celeb' features in it. They'll gobble up every word spewed from their mouth no matter what they say - brand (personality) loyalty. These long length videos are not for you and me.

to qualify for the privilege of displaying and shilling decently paying ads in the first place, you need family friendly "content" and a long video

it's search engine optimization. if you post JUST recipes you less priority with google searches. it's gaming the algorithm, like thumbnails with human faces in them.

SEO is part of it but vanity is also a factor. Everyone wants to be an e-celeb and that means adding vapid "personality" to otherwise simple information.

Google is a wasteland whose results have been increasingly garbage for a decade. Bookmark a few recipe database sites and go there directly.

People love long-form content nowadays. YouTube's algorithm also factors in watch time, so making a 10 hour video that keeps a viewer watching for 1 hour ten times is also weighted favorably because it means YouTube can roll more ads.

BBC is surprisingly readable even if it's just simple home recipe material imo
