Question about recent YT traffic method

    Recently youtube (now owned by google) has changed their video format and comments to put 2 comments with the highest 'thumbs up' at the top of the video comments.

    noticed some webmasters have found a way to get about 60 'thumbs up' to their comments that are clearly affiliate link spam accounts reaching tens of thousands of views for these comments. But only one user account can thumbs up a youtube comment at a time. Any idea how this is done? Thanks

    Some people who are selling the "vote" already create many youtube account, that's the reason
    And yes, most of the top "thumbs up" are buying the "vote"

    People are selling votes, views, and comments in YouTube. You can find many seller in DP's BST >> Traffic Section.
