Why does YouTube behave more like search than social?
Because people arrive with a question. A well-optimised video answering "how to choose a CRM" keeps collecting views for years, while the same effort on a social post is invisible within days. Title, thumbnail and the first thirty seconds decide whether it gets distributed.
Advertising on YouTube
YouTube ads reach people before they start searching, which makes it useful for demand generation rather than demand capture. Targeting by the videos and channels people watch is often more precise than demographic targeting.
No. Clear audio matters far more than camera quality, and over-produced corporate video often performs worse than someone knowledgeable explaining something plainly. Bad audio is the one thing viewers will not forgive.
