Avoid bot-like behavior : search for the video manually, turn off autoplay, interact with the video and so on.

Get Youtube Premium if you can. Refer to the Youtube Premium page.

Views from embedded videos, such as those found in media articles and on Weverse, may be filtered; thus, please refrain from watching embedded videos during the first 24 hours of release. Please also remember to log into a YouTube account before watching embedded videos, or the views will not be considered.

Do not use playlists for at least 1 week after the video has been released.

Do not watch unofficial videos such as reactions and lyric videos, at least for the first 24 hours.

Do not delete the watch history as it allows YouTube to search and include the views.

Leave a like and a comment after your first watch to push the video to the recommendations.

Don't forget to share the MV on your SNS.

Comment but do not spam. Avoid using the words "stream" and "views".

Do not use the replay button.

Do not watch the video in incognito mode.

Don't watch the video on multiple tabs on the same browser. Instead use different devices with different accounts on each one. NOTE : don't use too many accounts for one IP address, not more than 3-5 accounts.

Disable your ad blocker.

Do not use a VPN.

You can skip ads.

Do not mute the video, instead mute the device if you are on a computer or plug in headphones/earphones.

Streaming the official main video is the priority.

During the first 24 hours, refrain from pausing, fast forwarding, or rewinding the music video consistently and/or excessively.

After 24 hours, it's actually fine if you pause or rewind some parts. According to YouTube, rewinding actually helps with ranking because it tells them that the video has some content worth rewatching.

NONE of the music shows count performance videos' Youtube views in their broadcast points.

If you are using Youtube Music and you have downloaded the video, your offline and background streams will be counted once you're online.

Add a compelling description that includes the keywords you want to target (e.g. Dreamcatcher, Follow Us etc.)

Interact with the playlist at least once an hour by pausing, liking, commenting, etc. on videos.

Optimize the playlist for search by editing the title and description of your playlist.

Choose an eye-catching thumbnail.

PAUSE sometimes. It will make it look more organic.

Add non-Deukae videos in your other playlists (most organic listeners don’t tend to listen to only one artist). You can add kpop or also songs of the same categories such as rock, jpop, etc. You should also add songs that you just genuinely want to listen to as this would motivate you to not dislike streaming so much if you actually are actively listening.

Use different BROWSERS, do not use incognito.

Don’t title your playlist anything that says “STREAM”, "STREAMING" etc.

Try not to title it based on the song’s name and/or album’s name as we can imagine other InSomnias would do the same. Try to use titles like “study playlists,” “work playlist,” “workout playlist.” Basically, titles that people usually would use for genuinely listening to songs rather than for streaming.

Views from playlists are added at a slower rate; thus, please do not use a playlist during AT LEAST the first 24 hours of release.
