We let our son of 2 years old watch children songs on YouTube using the iPad. He can change the movies himself. Something strange has occurred and really intrigues me now, for some reason or another, he always ends up on videos of '(Kinder) Surprise Eggs' unwrapping. I started to see a pattern for each of these videos:
> SEO optimised titles e.g. "Disney Cars 2 Kinder Egg Toy Surprise Angry Birds Easter Egg Spongebob Squarepants Holiday Edition"
> Recent publishing dates
> Very high page view (videos of less then one year with xx,xxx,xxx views)
Are these channels 'spam'? From where the high pageview? Is the underlying motive of these videos just to earn money with ads?
Some examples:
3 month old video with >3M views https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oo-SWIAVxTo
5 month old video with >26M views https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YKmbKRElHY
Isn't this all going against the Google view of adding quality and all that..
