Hi everybody!
there's one easy way to understand if this was all set up. and let me tell you, it is.
just go to the information section of her yt page and you will see that she linked other profiles in her family section:
Cleopatra https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIcId8eEhNKbF8NVwSgv-AA
opening with a "my first vlog video" just like her mum, same graphics and editing
Shakespeare https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-JoPN5HWRBkUR5nED8vOUQ
he is JUST A CHILD and already has an adv-like page cover with logo and quotes
Leonardo https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAncU2fIXWZir-7qExAeEEQ
who's clearly not confident or spontaneous in front of the camera, playing "TryNotToLaughChallenge" which can be defined a clickbait nowadays do we all agree on that...
Jenna https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCN7nc6j-NvNqVafYyQbasZA
Leonardo's wife, opening her channel with a totally constructed and promotional video about herself like...elementary content.
So it's very easy to understand now that
there's a business behind all this, I mean not the whole family itself but the Youtube thing is a very constructed and coordinated business of course.
Here explained how they're growing so fast.
Product Placement: I dont even have to explain this point I guess
Every profile is linked with each other, which is a pretty good strategy to reach multiple targets at the same time, and they tagged themselves very well through all the videos. So they can reach moms, minimalism lovers, vegans, teenagers in general, religious people...i expect to see one of them becoming a huge Fortnite streamer very soon XD
Every profile look the same, similar copy, similar visuals, similar background music too.
Quality and frequency: even though we're not talking about a Hollywood production...these videos look good, average creativity, perfect house, high quality recording, basic editing and as other guys noticed before
content has been planned and organised through the year for a daily publishing which instantly raises youtube kpi's and puts these videos on top.
That's the total opposite of "spontaneous"!!!! shouldnt it be the first thing you expect to see in a vlog???
Older sons are big enough to play their part with constructed roles, and younger ones are too young to even understand they exist. It's a play! There's one of Taina's videos of them having breakfast together, in which you can clearly see the fakeness of it all: the kids are not even realistic and they are not spontaneous at all! One of them keeps hiding her face from the camera.
You know what, I think that if someone decides to start a business like that to earn some money i mean...i'm not anyone to tell them what is right or wrong. But what I DO think is wrong is to fool people. To sell young kids for what they'r not. To use religion as a tag to attract a bigger target.
But that's just my opinion. I won't follow them because I feel the fakeness of it all and I dont need that.
Hope I gave you some more elements to better understand them.
If God had a Youtube channel it might look like this.
Thing is, they've blown up on Youtube. A week ago they were barely touching 1000 subs and now, in less than a week they are at 116,000! It's crazy.
Their stats are so new that their Social Blade page hasn't been able to properly reflect their growth yet.
How? Is it just because they are so unique and they've caught people's attention? She has only just started posting on YT, there's been no steady increase, just this sudden explosion of interest.
It looks like someone knows exactly what they are doing as the videos they are releasing now were filmed in the summer time, so they have a whole stockpile ready-made to put out on a daily basis. This is exactly the right way to grow a channel quickly; upload daily as this catches the YT algorithm and you get put on people's recommended lists. Maybe the older kids are helping her as they do all seem quite switched on when it comes to technology. This is no religious cult where the kids are kept ignorant and passive.
I do hope the growth is organic and they're not bought subs.
I fear for them though as they are so charismatic that, out of all the Youtube families, they are the ones I can see fans getting really obsessed with.
Can't abide religion personally, but defend their right to practice whatever it is that gives them purpose.
Just worried that there's usually some pretty nasty beliefs , like being anti choice etc, that can go alongside the nice stuff. I fear they might be in for a backlash that is as swift as their growth if they're not careful.
Love to hear any thoughts.
