Why become a digital opinion leader by having a YouTube channel?
To be a thought leader (and especially a digital opinion leader) with influence, it depends on your ability to communicate effectively with the widest possible audience. Of all the programming channels that allow you to do that, YouTube is clearly at the top.
According to one study, people collectively watch about one billion hours of YouTube videos every single day. To put that into perspective, that’s more than the time spent watching Netflix or browsing videos on Facebook – combined.
According to the latest YouTube statistics, the video-sharing platform has 2.6 billion users worldwide as of 2022 (Statista, 2022). It's ranked as the second-most popular social network, and the only platform that has more active users than YouTube is Facebook.
