nature of google SEO to youtube views? - Lena S - 04-28-2014 04:12 AM
Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me with this...
I'm looking into whether or not to use a service such as fiverr.com to generate some youtube hits on clients videos (i.e. http://fiverr.com/gigs/search?query=youtube+views&x=0&y=0). Will having so many hits from a service like this will actually help SEO within google/other search sites, or could hurt it as spammy results.
Any suggestions???

There's a variety ways of faking views, including software robots, their fraud detection system recognizes patterns of bouncing without waiting for the video to play or other unnatural patterns, like a visit exactly every 60 seconds, or known proxy IP addresses.
Micro task sites like mturk.com, shorttask, microworkers are good sources for people working for pennies, you could require them to report something found on the last frame to insure longer view times.

Yes it will help SEO within Google especially now as they are trying to lean towards results that current/recent ie where something has recently changed or there is a trend of social interest. In your case a video which is getting alot of hits. But as Jake mentioned be careful that the supplier of the views does a good job by posting from different IPs and has long durations. Get this guarantee from him before giving him the go ahead. Or ask for proof that he has done this many times before without having videos barred. You can find some good sellers on http://www.gigtask.com as they are pretty good at filtering out scammers sellers.
