It is going to get harder for us to find content on YouTube as the streaming company has decided to remove suggested video links when you watch a particular video on December 14. This decision came about because only one out of twenty people actually clicks the links at a time, people that did click the links are taking to dead live stream making people think that it is a spam.
Because of this conclusion, YouTube had no issues removing the links, limiting us to clicking on cards and links at the end of videos to promote other content and any related links that the content creator would want to put at the end of their video. For those of you that don’t click on the suggested links will see a cleaner design on the website, but you will be lead to finding new videos and content on your own.
I believe this is a hit and miss for some of us as I myself have found great content in the suggested links and frankly, I actually like to see what YouTube can recommend to me. What do you guys think about losing the suggested links, let us know.
