In my entire life of using YouTube, I received a featured comment only twice, and that too during the days of Covid-19. During those days, people were connecting via social media platforms, sharing reels, commenting in support of unity in difficult situations, and liking content to encourage creators.
I was over the moon when I found out my comment had been highlighted and I thought it was done by the creator of the video content. Guess what? I was living in a dilemma. Let me tell you, the math behind this is completely different.
You want to solve this theory behind the highlighted comment on the Youtube puzzle, then tune in.
Sometimes you may have scoured the Youtube comment section for fun purposes and caught a highlighted comment. Dozens of questions may have arisen in your brain, so let’s first answer the question “What does it really mean?”
Comment highlighted simply means that Youtube has highlighted your comment among others to attract the audience in the comment section. “It could be highlighted by the content creator himself” is always conjectured at the top, but it is completely false.
People participate in comment sections to share their views, and a featured comment is one way YouTube engages its user in its services. Comment highlighting is a YouTube tactic through which people focus more on the comment section and get to know the thoughts and criticisms of others.
If your comment or someone else’s comment is highlighted for you, it simply indicates that “it’s a design through which the YouTube services allow users to stay a little longer.”
Also, if you are worried about any highlighted comment, please allow me to relieve your stress as the highlighted comment visible to you will not be visible to the other users or any audience, so take a deep breath.
Now let’s know who is highlighting those comments in contrast if they are not the owner of the content.

If you were living in the same dilemma that “the highlighted comment is made by the content creator of that YouTube video”, then let me whisper the secret to you.
No, it is not the content creator of the same video, who has highlighted the comment, but rather the gullible YouTube and its strategy behind it. YouTube obviously wants you to stay on their entertainment services and watch content, if it’s not your desired video, then the comments section of it.
Yes, it’s YouTube’s way of luring you into reading the reviews, thoughts and ideas of the same YouTube video.
YouTube has more than 120 million users a day, who watch more than 16 minutes of content. Everything YouTube does, from the ad to the poll to the featured comments, is a way to cast a spell on the audience.
To make you an addicted user, YouTube in the comments section exploits its “top comments” tactic to entice users to read them and help them in their marketing strategies. The longer you stay, the more popularity data and content YouTube receives.
