How they work
The video is promoted through ad placements. Real people see it as an ad and some watch it. Views are counted the way YouTube counts views from ads.
Why they're stable
Because they come through YouTube's own ad system, they rarely drop.
Why minimums are high
Each order sets up a campaign. Small orders aren't practical, so minimums start around 10,000 and go up to 1 million.
Targeting
India-targeted ad views help if you want your audience geography to show India. Note: ad views typically don't add much watch time.
