I've made a free open-source tool that helps YouTubers
3 Years Back, When I used to post on YouTube regularly. I've encountered a challenging situation that cost me a huge number of social media engagements.
As a small content creator, most of my audience is my friends, followers and family. I used to share my YouTube video link on social media. But as my views on social media increased, I realised that the channel growth was the same as zero.
And the #1 culprit of that is my social media, Why? you may ask.
My friends and followers watch my videos with their full interest but because Social media apps keep them on their application using in-app browsers.
