I will not apply to any job that includes "Knows how to make content go viral" 100% of the time. Pandering and imitation can spike your views but will always leave you with regrets eventually.

How many views does it take for a video to be considered viral? Does making a viral video help your channel in the long run? Should you try and imitate viral content to boost your views? I'll answer these questions...right now. It's subjective, no, and no. Optimizing your content is not the same as catering to passing trends. The long-term health of any YouTube channel depends on a long-term strategy.
