Exactly. With the way YouTube intentionally fixes the search algorithms to work against the little guys and smaller channels, I hope this will help it get better exposure.

Does your Twitter account have to meet certain requirements in order for celebrities or other verified accounts to actually see your tweets to them? The reason I ask is because whenever I treat to any of these accounts, none of them ever respond: I don't remember how many times I've tweeted to Frank Oz and he's never responded, but I've also tweeted to Brad Garrett, Tom Bergeron, Jerry Seinfeld, even SS's official Twitter account, and other companies like Kellogg's, and they never respond.

I mean, I just signed up last month and have gotten numerous likes/responses from many celebs I follow (most being voice actors).

I just don’t let stuff like this bother me because at the end of the day, they’re still people and they have lives of their own.

Well again, not just them, but also like companies and such (like I mentioned, Kellogg's being one of them).

I think it just comes down to the case of maybe your comments being overlooked or what have you.

But like I said, best thing to do is just let stuff like this go. The most I’m fine with is a simple like and nothing more.

Well, it's not like I can't let go of anything, I was asking out of genuine curiosity, because I know it seems like almost every social media platform has some form of limitations that are imposed unless your account meets certain requirements.

Fair enough.

Far as I’m concerned, I don’t believe so. Cause if that were the case, my twitter account being only a month old, no one would give me any likes or responses.

It wouldn't surprise me if Frank chose like one random tweet out of 1000 to respond to.

I'm assuming all the celebrities/companies you mentioned do respond to fan questions, even if not yours. I know Weird Al Yankovic has said on his social media that he doesn't respond to fans posts because he's too busy, there might be others who have that policy as well.

Though I believe the "too busy to reply" explanation, I wonder if they are really too busy to reply to any post. Surely they could make time to reply to some every once in a while when they're not doing anything (and I could be underestimating how busy these people are), but I wonder if such an explanation is also an excuse to avoid certain fan posts they don't want to deal with (and there probably are a lot that famous people don't want to comment on). Or would responding to just one post when a person normally doesn't feel like too much? After all, they could respond to that one post and then more people would think they can get answers.
