Car Throttle is the classic UK case......

They went from doing huge numbers but then the stars (AutoAlex) left to do their own thing and it fell off a cliff.
AutoAlex is crushing it but now is getting all the money.

Car Throttle now gets only a fraction of its previous viewership.

These people behind the scenes underestimate the power of the personality to grow a youtube channel.
If you can get people engaged (hooked) they keep coming back which drives the youtube algorithm.

If you look at Baileys Channel its clear why he is getting no traffic.
He doesnt understand what does and doesnt work on youtube.
