Thankfully, there are a lot of things we can do to avoid this problem. We will talk about those today.   Links in this Episode: Creator Spotlight:  https://www.youtube.com/@prestonflanikensellscars9640  JOIN THE POD SQUAD AFTER-PARTY IN VOLLEY: We love answering questions, hearing your feedback, and discussing each podcast episode with you and hundreds of other creators in our video chat Volley space.

Part of being a YouTube creator is finding that balance between what we think is good and what the data actually tells us is good content. We want better content and better results, but we have a tendency to do things that irritate our viewers. Because of these things, no one clicks or people abandon our content quickly which makes the YouTube algorithm throw us in its proverbial garbage bin. If only there was a way to know what these things were so we can prevent that.... Good news: There is! And that's what we are going to talk about today.
