Questions artists ask

What is the best YouTube promotion service for musicians?

It depends on who you want running the ads. For real YouTube viewers, use Google Ads video campaigns: run them yourself in Google Ads or YouTube Promote, or have a service run them for you. Dynamoi, the publisher of this page, runs managed Google Ads campaigns and reports watch time, subscribers and AdSense revenue by market.

Do YouTube ad views count toward monetization?

Ads can bring real viewers to your channel, but watch time from the ads themselves does not count toward the 4,000-hour YouTube Partner Program requirement. YouTube also says watch hours and subscribers gained through Promote do not count toward its eligibility thresholds.

How much does YouTube promotion cost?

With Google Ads and YouTube Promote you set the budget yourself. VeeFly and Promolta start at $10 per campaign. Dynamoi campaigns start at $10/day per campaign. Starter is $25/month per artist, and your fee becomes ad credit. Eligible new artists get double credit the first month. Curator pitching is priced per contact: 2 Grooviz on Groover, or $1 per premium credit on SubmitHub.

Is curator pitching the same as YouTube promotion?

No. Groover and SubmitHub send your track to channel owners who decide whether to feature it. You pay for a reply or feedback on their terms, not for a placement. YouTube ads put your video in front of viewers directly.

Is it safe to buy YouTube views?

No. YouTube does not allow anything that artificially increases views, likes, comments or other metrics. Violations can get videos removed, and repeated strikes can end a channel. Real ads are sold on budget and targeting, never on a promised view count.

How was this list made?

We checked each service's own website and help pages on September 25, 2026 and listed only what they publish. Where a price or detail is not published, the receipt says so. No service paid to be listed. Dynamoi ranks itself first because it is built for artists who want campaigns run for them; every other label says who that service suits better.
