OIl filters and YouTube

[srfdude]

This is ostensibly about an oil filter comparison between two common filters, but this "comparison" is so totally inane that I was wondering do "influencers" make a lot of money just blabbering away on line? Its not even worth going to this as there is absolutely nothing to gain, but he babbles on as if he is some sort of expert. I suppose everyone has a right to be whatever, and that is not really the point here. I am sure anyone who has even a slight filter cognizance will scratch his head watching this, so why does some yahoo do this sort of stuff?

You hit on it in your post; they make money from the clicks and stupid people actually subscribe to these people's stuff.

Clicks and cash. Most YT oil filter reviewers aren't that knowledgeable about oil filters. They just cut them open and ramble on about what they see and think.

When the minimum cost of entry is just a cell phone that takes video, it is going to attract a lot of self proclaimed Rocket Surgeons to have a voice.

It's not exclusive to YouTube where people act like experts on oil filters....

Don't talk about Z like that! He's sensitive and his dog will bite you.

Yeap. It's kinda the whole point of YouTube that so many fail to comprehend.

Blowing stuff up or hot girls listening to music and showing their reactions get a lot of subscribers and hits, lol.
