Master YouTube Growth with Dabi's In-Depth Algorithm Guide
Hi, I'm Dr. David Liu, but most people in the YouTube world know me as Dabi.
After years of consulting with YouTubers ranging from a few hundred subscribers to 17,800,000+ subscribers, one question comes up more than any other: “How does the algorithm actually work?”
So I wrote this guide. It's a comprehensive, no-fluff breakdown of everything you need to know about the YouTube algorithm — drawn from real data, real experience, and real results. Not recycled advice from the internet.
If you want to understand why YouTube recommends certain videos and not others, this guide will give you the clarity you need.

The guide is a comprehensive 6,000+ word PDF document, accompanied by audio recordings of each section. You’ll get instant access to download both formats after purchase.
Is this different from the storytelling course?
Yes. The storytelling course focuses on how to craft videos that retain viewers. This algorithm guide focuses on how YouTube’s recommendation system works — how it evaluates, ranks, and distributes content. They complement each other, but cover different topics.
Will this guide become outdated?
The core principles of how YouTube’s algorithm works have remained consistent for years. While YouTube makes small tweaks, the fundamental metrics (CTR, AVD, satisfaction) have been stable. This guide focuses on those lasting principles rather than short-lived hacks.
