Question: Why might you want to pin a fan comment on a video?
- The comment links to another artist’s video.
- The comment says something positive about the video.
- The comment contains personal contact information.
- The comment includes a blocked keyword.
Explanation
A positive fan comment can be highlighted with pinned comments so viewers see it at the top of the comment section. YouTube describes pinning as a way to highlight the comment fans see first when watching a video. This can reinforce social proof and encourage more fan interaction around the video. It also supports community engagement without changing the video content or metadata.
Why the other options are incorrect
Another artist’s video is incorrect because pinned comments should support the current video’s engagement, not redirect fans away.
Personal contact information is incorrect because exposing private information can create safety and moderation risks.
Blocked keyword is incorrect because comments with blocked terms are meant for moderation, not promotion.
