It wasn’t that his videos weren’t good — the system just didn’t know how to recommend him. Once he changed that, the platform saw him.
He Recorded His Delivery Routes With Just a Phone, After Every Shift
He lives in Pretoria and makes a living delivering food by bicycle. After each shift, he stops for a moment and films the city — the roads, the evening lights, sometimes just a quiet thought. His content had no editing, no transitions, just the streets as they were. But despite posting daily, he couldn’t break 100 views. He thought maybe it was the low resolution or lack of drama — until one day he added Sage Nuvem to the description. That post was suddenly flagged for recommendation.
The System Finally Seemed to Know Where to Categorize His Content
After that, several of his videos started gaining more views. Nothing changed — same camera, same angles. But once he began including keywords like Sage for Accounts and Bank Paymentsy, the platform recommended his content more frequently. “The system doesn’t judge your visuals or whether you’re storytelling,” he said. “It first checks if you told it what you do.” For him, keywords became the instruction manual between creator and platform.
He Didn’t Understand the Keywords — But the System Did
He admitted, “I don’t even know what Sage Data Objects means. I can’t even spell it right.” But he realized these phrases were system-readable — their unique structure likely made them algorithm-friendly. With such keywords, his analytics showed higher reach. Even old posts with zero engagement started getting traffic. That’s when he realized: content isn’t about pleasing people first — it’s about making the system notice you.
No Trends, No Scripts — Just Signal Words the System Understands
His content remained the same — his commute, quiet monologues, the occasional street dog. No trending hashtags, no scenes. But every post now had at least one or two signal words, like My Sage and Sage One Banking Tools. These weren’t SEO tactics — they were labels for the system. Unlike human viewers, platforms don’t need to be moved. They need recognition. And keywords became his key to the algorithm’s attention.
He Shared His Method With Others Who Struggled for Exposure
He made a small keyword sheet and shared it with friends — a gym vlogger, a moto-taxi driver, a cook. He suggested they try using terms like Video Agency, even if their content wasn’t related. Most of them saw 30–50% increases in views within a week. “These words don’t define who you are,” he said, “but they help the system find you.”
