Do you utilize the YouTube Shorts feature?

Based on my own experience, sometimes they can get a lot of views really fast.

Do you think this could work for your website?
 
I do utilized this feature on YouTube when I ran an animal blog. The best part of the feature is that viewers can capture the message you are passing in a short video since there is a whole lot of distractions out there in the world.

It can be tricky, though!

You only have about 2 or 3 seconds to create a hook that will keep them watching.

My best has been animal-related actually! Snakes.
 
I find Youtube Shorts are more viable than TikToks. If you're already on youtube putting out content, it makes sense to keep it on the same channel and just put shorts out there to bring more eyes to your other content on your youtube channel.
 
I've started modifying my shorts titles to have more of a hook in them as an experiment.

Yesterday's short got over 7,800 views in 24 hours!
