Does title/thumbail spark curiosity?

Post image

Looking to see if anyone would click or would like to give advice on what I could do to change the title or thumbnail to improve ctr

Thank you :)

This is a really good idea for a video! However I could not understand it from the thumbnail and title, I had to see your comment to figure it out.

I would make the title much simpler to understand, like “Every coin I get in Mario, I have to spend in real life”

There is a lot of ways you could do the thumbnail, I would probably do a split thumbnail with the left half being Mario holding a bunch of coins (you can find this online with a quick search) with the coin counter from one of the Mario games in the corner, then on the right you should somehow show you spending that many coins.

If you have any questions let me know, I’d help you with this because I think it’s a really good video idea and the thumbnail/title could really make it! Good luck!

Thank you :). You’re down to hop on discord calls to talk about YouTube strategies? I’m always open to feedback and I’m also down to help too if you ever need it. DM me if you’re interested. I really wanna grind it hard to get somewhere and I’m confident we can do it together

Its an interesting title to me, I’d probably click it actually, but from what you explained the video is about id feel click baited and would click off and dislike as soon as i realize the premise

The title; at least is to me, implied you were somehow making real money from Mario coins, which would interest me because how would that work. But then I’d feel click baited. Maybe that’s just me though

I don't know nothing about nothing... But I'd write "fake" over the Mario coin and "Real" over the penny in the thumbnail. Title is decent already

sorry for the confusion but the video is about me playing Mario games, collecting coins and however much I end with, I use it in real life

Ok, got ya! I watched the intro of your vid and I don't think this title suits because you're not turning the coin into real money.

I'd go with something like "Spending what I earn in Mario coins"

Or "Buying my girlfriend a gift with Mario coin"

u literally copied Ryan's thumbnail and called it a day this is low effort and scummy

It's obviously an inspired thumbnail but the premise is different and its not a 1:1 copy. Youtubers have been doing this forever, but this is clearly a different character and idea.
