      I have about 4000 you tube video urls that I need someone to submit for comment links, and profile links, and other links above pr2 and above. (will consider lower pr too). The ones I see when searching, don't seem to be able to understand how to use their submitters.

      Yes I know PR most likely will not be passed, but at least the vid will rank better with higher pr. My pr4 vids do.

      It seems to be that you tube vids are easier to gain pr. When I do a link search for pr5 vid urls, it doesn't seem to return links that justify the PR, so any info on that is appreciated.

      Any comments about how I should not do this or any form of this will not be appreciated. Thanks

        Hey Joe,

        So, as you correctly identify, the YouTube algorithm does appear to be somewhat less sophisticated than the main Google algorithm in terms of spam detection and often times, if you buy loads of links to your videos - you can get them ranking well.

        Ultimately, I don't think it really matters where you go to buy these links. The PageRank of those links also wont matter a great deal. At such a scale, one low quality link comment spam link will be more or less as good as another and you're clearly taking the risk in knowledge of a potential penalty. So, i'm afraid I can't recommend you any companies to do this, but hopefully I can give you some other tips which would help with your YouTube optimisation and may help mitigate against some of the risks you will be taking.

        • Hotspots

        After running numerous tests, we've discovered that the viewing metrics of your videos make a huge different to their ability to rank. YouTube hotspots (see here for details - http://www.distilled.net/blog/social-media/youtube/youtube-insight-film-critic-reviews-for-your-video-now-included/) give a really comprehensive overview of how individuals behave when watching your video and if you can find a way to scale improving the responses here - it should really improve rankings.

        • Quantity

        4000 videos is an awful lot. Given the scale, I imagine that they're extremely low quality, or duplicate content targeting different keywords. I would really recommend that you consider reducing the quantity here, as the more you scale this process, the easier it is going to be for Google to pick up and then give you a spamming penalty.

        • Channel

        Whatever you do, don't buy tons of low quality links out to 4000 videos coming off the same channel - this will set off alarms very quickly and sooner or later, the channel will be devalued.

        Hope that's helpful - but please do be aware of the risk you're taking here! I fully expect your videos to get a penalty if you buy links to all 4000. You may get away with it for a bit, but please carefully consider whether the cost will really be worth the results.

        Cheers,

        Phil
