Abstract
YouTube has become one of the most influential channels in recent years. There are an enormous number of videos on the platform, but few of them are popular, getting placed in the “Trending” section. But, videos on this list have different stories. Some of them will get constant popularity and others will fade out. Many researchers have analyzed what will make a video become popular. However, no study has focused on how long a video maintains its popularity. In addition, the content similarity between the thumbnail image and the title has been neglected, although it appears to play an important role in social media posts (e.g. blogs, Instagram). We measure the variable, content similarity, by analyzing the thumbnail image and text. This study investigates the impact of this new variable on popular videos’ survival to give YouTubers and advertisers insights into video marketing. Also, our suggested approach can achieve new academic results in the research of YouTube.
