Hype is a new feature announced at the just-concluded Made on YouTube 2024 event. With Hype, YouTube aims to help smaller creators get their channels and content discovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The concept behind Hype is to help \u201cemerging YouTube channels grow by connecting them with new audiences.\u201d Additionally, YouTube says it\u2019ll allow passionate fans to get involved in their favorite creators\u2019 success stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

YouTube Hype is essentially an audience-led promotion of content by small-to-medium-size creators<\/a>\u2014channels with 500 – 500,000 subscribers. Hyping a video earns it points required to feature on a weekly hype leaderboard. The more Hype a video gets, the higher its chances of climbing (further up) the leaderboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leaderboards are country-specific and consist of the top 100 most hyped videos, with the top-hyped videos earning a special badge. For creators, the key benefit of being featured on these leaderboards is exposure to a potentially new audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hype has a 7-day availability window on new videos. Viewers or fans can only hype a video within its first week of publication, and videos older than seven become Hype-ineligible. The 7-day window and leaderboard, according to YouTube, are elements that give Hype a \u201cperfect balance of urgency and flexibility.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To create a level playing field, smaller channels with fewer subscribers<\/a> can use a \u201csmall creator bonus\u201d to multiply their points. That\u2019ll help boost their chances of making the leaderboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Viewers can only Hype a video up to three times weekly. However, YouTube plans to let fans or viewers extend this limit by purchasing additional hypes. That\u2019ll open up a new monetization opportunity for YouTube creators<\/a> as they can earn from hype purchases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hype is currently a beta feature on YouTube mobile in Taiwan, Turkey, and Brazil. YouTube\u2019s official blog post about Hype<\/a> provides more information about the feature. Other tools and features announced at this year\u2019s Made on YouTube event<\/a> include an Inspiration tab, Communities, Community Hub, Auto-dubbing, Gifts, and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
