Part 2/10:
At the core of this venture was a bold strategy to play with the YouTube algorithm by trimming a video in half shortly after its release. The goal? To maximize watch time and viewer retention, two pivotal factors that the algorithm favors heavily. The theory posited that a 10-minute video watched at 50% retention could transform into a spectacular 5-minute video with a 100% retention statistic after being cut. This mathematical sleight-of-hand was designed to launch the video into YouTube's algorithmic stratosphere, promising untold views and delightful ad revenue for the creator's corgis’ treats.
