If a video uploaded to YouTube is shared on another platform, will the number of views increase?

If a video uploaded to youtube is downloaded from youtube and the videos are shared in places such as tiktok, likee, will the number of views of the video on youtube increase?

For example, since I stopped uploading videos to tiktok, my short videos and long videos started to be watched less. But for some reason, when I share a video that I downloaded directly from youtube by entering my channel on tiktok or another video sharing site, the number of views suddenly increases thanks to sites other than youtube, although my video is watched less under normal conditions. I can't understand why. Are people searching for my video on youtube by taking the risk of getting tired even though it is tiktok or likee? Or is it the number of tiktok views added to youtube?

It absolutely will increase because you are providing more avenues for people to see your product.

It's the same as if you owned a store. BornToDie's Candle Shop. Let's say you sell 50 candles every day because 100 people come to the shopping center where you're store is. BUT, if you sign a deal with Target to have your candles in their stores across America, you might sell 5,000 candles every day -- more people have access to it.

Same thing for YouTube videos every time one of us embeds a YouTube video here on GaG -- we drive traffic to that video.

Depends.

If you share the link - then the views increase. But if you reupload somewhere else, then you're potentially stealing their content, but will get more views on that platform instead.

It's kind of strange that this is going on. Doesn't really make a lot of sense. you might want to just ask YouTube directly with the deal is

Well I can say for sure that tik tok is kicking Youtube's ass in viewership, even after implementing shorts.. Anyway, yeah if you embed your youtube vid elsewhere it will increase the kill, er I mean view count. Whore it out!

[LemiaOfThunder]

If people click on it. Sometimes I see my numbers increased.

[Dav1dTh0ma389]

Should. Since it's getting more exposure, right?

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Yes, I would think so

[Jamie05rhs]
