☆☆ [TUT] Increase your YouTube views from within your program ☆☆ - Ubberkid - Apr 16, 2011
Alright so this is a pretty simple way to get more views when people open/use your VB programs (That are hopefully already on YouTube).
I have never heard of anyone that uses this method besides me and my buddy w00d. If i am wrong, sorry? ANYWAYS..
Step 1: Make your program (Whatever it is)
Step 2: Add a web browser control and set it's visibility to FALSE.
Step 3: Set the web browsers URL to a link of one of your YouTube videos.
Step 4: Repeat steps 2-3 for how ever many videos you want to add. I usually make 3 web controls for each 1 of my videos.
It may not seem like a lot, but for the 1 view that you would have got from them downloading your program. You will essentially get 3x the views you would have depending on how many web controls you add to your program.
*Important*
Yes, the sound is going to play from all of your videos at once, and it's going to be annoying. If anyone want's to tell us how to mute what's inside the Web browser controls, i will add it to the TUT.
ALSO, as TraptCode stated, if you are going to use this, i do not recommend it if your users are going to open your program like 30 times, because if your videos get 300+ views from the same person, they will lock your views. Or i recommend making it so that they can only open the program a certain number of times to avoid that. I usually only use this for fake programs like Generators and etc.
Edit: Thanks to "Hell Guardian"
If you want to mute the Speaker Sound then
Declare These
PHP Code
<?php
Private Const APPCOMMAND_VOLUME_MUTE As Integer = &H80000
Private Const WM_APPCOMMAND As Integer = &H319
Declare Function SendMessageW Lib "user32.dll" (ByVal hWnd As IntPtr, ByVal Msg As Integer, ByVal wParam As IntPtr, ByVal lParam As IntPtr) As IntPtr
PHP Code
<?php
SendMessageW(Me.Handle, WM_APPCOMMAND, Me.Handle, CType(APPCOMMAND_VOLUME_MUTE, IntPtr))
PHP Code
<?php
SendMessageW(Me.Handle, WM_APPCOMMAND, Me.Handle, CType(APPCOMMAND_VOLUME_MUTE, IntPtr))

Nice tut, will add this to whatever i decide to make next.

Just a warning: Once youtube gets 300 or more views from a single user, they will lock the view count. I have at least 3 videos that are stuck at 357 because of that.

So you're saying that one person is going to open the program that many times for that to happen. I should probably state that this is only for programs where the users will not open it more than 30 times lol
noted in the tut, thanks trapt.

If i was to go on a program using this way, i would get prompted to let the program
access my internet becuase of my AV ;D
But still bro, this is a nice method, and would work well for programs
that people leave on for hours on end :D

Tbh Ubberkid, The more i think about this method,
it makes me think about the genius of the whole idea :D
this could be very effective programs that users run for ages,
and you could also add codes to start up and minimize to tray automatically on startup :D

This is a great idea and I will add that when I finish my Generator. Thanks.
I got a question tho, could I use this to open up my adfly links?

Yes but then you would have to invoke a click to click the continue button at the top.

Couldn't you add a proxy then switch proxies every x views to avoid that view lock?

Good! I haven't really know about muting a application sound. I will use the Sound muting in my next bot.

Could but proxies like to stop working and if it turns into a bad proxy and ends up not using a proxy at all, then it will still lock your videos.
