Video Ratings

""Likes and Dislikes" are a rating system on YouTube videos which consist of two buttons - a thumbs up for likes, and a thumbs down for dislikes. This can be used to give creators a quick overview of how their audience has received their content. It is speculated that likes/dislike may also increase the exposure of one's content in search engines by making it more visible, however this has never been confirmed by any YouTube insiders
