The Importance of Targeted Viewership
A primary focus for creators is to attract the right audience. Many creators aim for a maximum of 500,000 views to maintain the quality of their audience. Going over this threshold can lead to attracting viewers who are not aligned with the creator's objectives, such as sponsorships and engagement. Thus, creators should prioritize creating content that resonates with their desired audience rather than merely chasing viral numbers.
