Simply put:
1. How do you get people's information so you can market to them?
2. What do you do with that information.. so you can market to them?
But first, YOU have to embrace the reason you want to collect people's name email address. It's so you can email them.
Why do YOU want to email them? So you'll be more successful and make more money. Because you understand that email marketing is what drives a huge amount of retail success. Look at your own email inbox and think about how often that's inspired you to buy something.
Why do THEY want you to email them? Because they'll save money. (Sale) They'll learn about the latest products/options (exclusivity, prestige). So they won't forget.. something. (Holidays/Gifts/Occasions)

The key to it all
The key to building a good list is having people who want your emails.
That doesn't mean they love every email you send every time. It means that they want to remain on your list and don't want to unsubscribe. When your email is relevant in subject matter or timing, they react.
E.g. You don't open every email from Home Depot, but you are thinking of remodelling your kitchen, and an email comes out about how to pick paint colors. You may have deleted the past 3 emails, but you didn't delete yourself from the list because you still liked getting them.
This is what you want from your customers and potential customers.
Build a list of people who like getting your emails. When the email and timing is right, it will cause them to take action!

About the Site 🌐
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥
Origins of the Idea 🌱
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠
Challenges Faced 🤔
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍
Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
About YouTube 📺
YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. 🌟
Content and Users 🎵
Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.
While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.
Monetization and Impact 🤑
YouTube and creators earn revenue through Google AdSense, with most videos free to view. Premium channels and subscription services like YouTube Music and YouTube Premium offer ad-free streaming.
As of February 2017, over 400 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute, with the site ranking as the second-most popular globally. By May 2019, this figure exceeded 500 hours per minute. 📈
