YouTube is Testing New Design Changes - YouTube Update 2021

 

We know that nowadays youtube is releasing so many new updates like YouTube Shorts, Youtube Tax Update, Copyright Check, and many more.

Now youtube is testing a new design update where the design and sequence of subscribe button and comment section and video description are change. 

See the below images for a better understanding.

Old YouTube UI

YouTube New UI

Currently, this update is not rolled out for all users or browsers, I am seeing this update on my channel "The Tech Trackers" If you are getting this update on your browser do let us know in the comment section.

My thoughts on this new update as follows:

I didn't like this new update because in the old version there subscribe button was on the right side here it's on the left side.

From a conversion point of view, The standard location for a CTA is on the right-hand side of the page above the fold. It has been proven that CTAs on the right side of the page receive more clicks than those on the left.

So here YouTube Put subscribe on the left side which might reduce the subscriber rate for creators.

The second thing I didn't like about this update is here, the Video Description section which was beside the subscribe button, here it is now above the subscribe and comment section, and that too not visible properly. 

Also here, if you click on to see more links in the description section your whole subscribe and comment bar goes down, far down from users reach which means this will again hamper your subscription rate.

The above points are my personal opinion, Youtube might be fixed this or change UI but that totally up to YouTube.

Now what you can do is check the above screenshot of both designs and let me know your thoughts in the comment section below.

Stay tuned for more updates!

Instagram Introducing Native Affiliate Tool for Creators

 

Hi Folk,

Yesterday, at creator week Instagram announced New ways for creators to make a living.

Creators have always used Instagram to share products they love, and people trust their favorite accounts for inspiration and new products. Now only selected creators can tag products from the brands they work with or use Shops if they have their product line.

Instagram aims to give more creators access to their shopping tools and allow them to get rewarded for any purchase they drive.

So, in the coming months, Instagram will begin testing a new "Native Affiliate Tool" which will allow the creator to discover new products available on checkout, share them with their followers and earn commissions for the purchases they drive — all within the Instagram app.

When people come across an affiliate post from a creator featuring a tagged product, they will see “eligible for commission” at the top of the post, so it’s clear that their purchases help support that creator.

This update will make it easy for people to directly shop from the creators or brand they follow and all this from the Instagram app itself.

Currently, this Instagram Affiliate Tool will be available for a small group of US-Based Creator and Businesses and will expand for more partners in the future.

Stay Tuned for more updates.

So, here in this article, we will see what steps you should perform if you have been scammed, Yes here is the full guide on "what to do when you get scammed online in India".

First of all, let's clear one thing anyone can be scammed those scammers use various social engineering and other methods to lure victims to their scam. So we must stay alert and beware of such unbelievable or mind-boggling offers like "you have won the lottery of $500000 in a lucky draw, just pay XXXX amount and get reward credited to your account".

What to do when you get scammed online:

We have personally dealt with many victims of online scams or fraud, people think that people will laugh at them that they got scammed and everything, I have seen people committing suicide after getting scammed. so our suggestion is the first concern with your elders or someone who can understand you. Explain the whole scenario to them clear your mind and then think about what you should do next.

The first thing you should do after you got scammed online is that contact your bank to seal or freeze your account which will prevent any more loss.

After that report that crime to the cyber crime department, in India if you got scammed then you should file an online complaint on the cyber security portal https://cybercrime.gov.in/

While filing a complaint online you have to submit all details like your personal details, address, your bank account number, and other details with proof of you got scammed like any transaction receipt or UPI details, etc.

Once you submit an online complaint cyber crime department will take a look into it and after 4-5 days they will transfer your complaint to your nearest police station and they will take action against that scammer or fraudster.

Still in the meanwhile, we suggest that you should visit your local police station and filed a complaint about your scam or fraud.

Also, you should report that scammer account, from which you got scammed to that particular social media platform, every platform has that option to report a particular user or account for spam or fraud activity. 

once you reported that account that particular social media platform will take strict action against that user or account.

And the main thing is don't hide or ignore such scams be brave and spread awareness about that scam with everyone so what happened to you will not happen with anyone in the future.

[EXPOSED] Instagram Online Bitcoin Trading Scam 2021 - Lost Rs.20,000

 

Hi Friends,

Welcome to The Tech Trackers, From the last few months, there are lot of scams happening on Instagram. 

So here in this article, we will expose one most trending scam that is "Bitcoin Trading Scam"

Exposing Instagram Trading Scam :

Last week I got a call from my friend saying "he has been Scammed".

Here is the full story.

Firstly My friend got a message from some traders on Instagram that we invest in bitcoin and US trade with 100% return on your invested money in 20 minutes.

Sounds fishy, right??

Yes, a rational person will not fall for this offer, so they have come up with a new technique where first they gain your trust and then break it. 

How?? Let's see.

With the above message, they send the below plans, where they have mentioned that how much will you get in return on your investment.

As per the above image, if you invest Rs.1000/- after 20 minutes you will get Rs.1250/- and so on...

Here, my friend send Rs.1000/- to his account via UPI(as shown below)

And after 20 min. as promised he received Rs.1250/- in return as promised.

Here customer believes that this trader is legit and helps me earn more by investing in bitcoins and the market.

But the main game start after this. after first trading they create trust and greed in minds of the customer and throw the next offer that if they invest Rs.10,200/- you will get Rs.23,800/- in return.

People think that the last time when I invested I got my money back with profit so now I can trust this trader and let's go for this offer and let's make some extra money(My friend thought the same thing.)

My friend fall for this offer and sent Rs.10,000/- to invest and after receiving the money trader asks him to wait for some time and we will invest your money in trade.

And after 10 minutes got a message from a trader that Hi, our trade is going down, and to boost our trade you need to invest more 10K and you will get 38K in return and if you stop now you will lose the previous 10K also as our trade is going in loss and they send some fake graph screenshot.

Here some people send more 10K to save ourselves from loss same my friend did and sent 10K to him...

Now after receiving 10K trader sent a message saying that thank you our trade is going up now wait for 20 min. and we will transfer your profit to your bank account.

My friend waited for 20 min and when he message trader for asking about the update, he found that his message is not going through, he tried calling Video call, again same. He tried calling the phone number he shared. That number is now switched off. 

And at this moment he knew that he's been scammed.

All this above happened in less than 1 hour and in that one hour my friend lost Rs.20K

So, this is how those scammers lure people with various offers. so beware of such scammers.

In the next article, we will see what you should do if you have been scammed.

So stay tuned for the next article and share this article with your friends and family to aware of these scams.
