    Why aren't your video views increasing? And not reaching people? The reason is: Your video thumbnails aren't eye-catching enough Lack of audience Your content is fantastic. With the right thumbnails and editing, it can attract more viewers and keep them engaged. If you improve these aspects, you should see a significant increase in views and engagement. Feel free to ask me any questions!

    Interesting. I live in Wyoming, along the Idaho border, where the oldest roads are a little over a century old. An artifact from an early explorer was found on my property, and it was two centuries old, and is now in a local museum. It is fascinating to learn about roads that date back to before the fourth century A D.

    • @StansCloserLook
      @StansCloserLook 6 месяцев назад

      Thanks for the comment Rob. I was raised on the Canadian prairies and the oldest road there was along the Red River. An ox track from the beginning of the 19th century. Exploring England gave me a real sense of history.

    Shared your channel with my Hubby, as he also has a love for history. Those flooded fields remind me of the rice paddy fields we lived near in Japan.
