# Commentfluencer > The public home of comment virality: an index of the most-liked YouTube comments, the people who wrote them, and the creators they show up under. Commenters can look themselves up and claim their page; everything is readable without an account. The index currently holds 86.8K live YouTube comments from 72.6K commenters across 3.1K creators. 1.7K comments have 100,000+ likes; the biggest has 2.7M. Last checked Oct 3, 2026. Eligibility: a comment qualifies at 10,000 likes anywhere on YouTube, or by being the most-liked comment on a video we have read. Comments a creator leaves on their own videos, their alt channels, and brand accounts are kept in the data but never counted on a commenter board. ## Hubs - [YouTube index](https://www.commentfluencer.com/youtube): stats, top creators, top commenters, this week's top comments, search. - [Leaderboard](https://www.commentfluencer.com/leaderboard): paged board of every indexed comment and commenter, with like-count tiers. - [Niches](https://www.commentfluencer.com/youtube/niche): the index split by YouTube's video categories. - [Countries](https://www.commentfluencer.com/youtube/country): top creators and most-liked comments by the country a channel reports to YouTube; only countries with ten or more indexed creators get a page. - [API for developers](https://www.commentfluencer.com/developers): the read-only JSON endpoints behind these pages, with live examples, the caching and rate-limit facts, and the attribution rule (link to the Commentfluencer page you cite). - [Insights](https://www.commentfluencer.com/insights): pages generated from the index.

In our index of 33,587 YouTube comments with 10,000+ likes, 51% of top comments were posted within an hour of upload, the earliest viral comment on a video finished on top 1.33x more often than chance, and comments that quote the video earned 1.45x the likes per view while emoji and generic compliments got rarer the bigger a comment grew. - [Can you get paid to comment on YouTube? Real ways vs scams (2026)](https://www.commentfluencer.com/guides/get-paid-to-comment-on-youtube): Not directly: YouTube pays $0 for comments and for likes on comments, and most "get paid to comment" job ads are task scams, which the FTC says drew about 20,000 reports in the first half of 2024 alone. Commenters do earn indirectly: through moderation and community jobs, brand-paid comments that are disclosed, affiliate links in a link page, and by turning comment attention into an audience of their own. - [How to get a YouTuber to notice your comment: hearts, pins and replies](https://www.commentfluencer.com/guides/get-a-youtuber-to-notice-your-comment): Be early, be specific, and be a regular on a channel small enough to read its comments. Creators see the top of their comment section first, and in our index 51% of top comments were posted within an hour of upload. Commenters who earned several viral comments mostly did it under one creator: 69.7% of them under a single channel. ## About - [How it works](https://www.commentfluencer.com/how-it-works) - [For commenters](https://www.commentfluencer.com/for-commenters) - [For brands](https://www.commentfluencer.com/for-brands) - [Methodology](https://www.commentfluencer.com/methodology) - [API for developers](https://www.commentfluencer.com/developers) - [Sitemap index](https://www.commentfluencer.com/sitemap.xml) Structured data: every public page carries JSON-LD (ItemList, Person, Comment, VideoObject, Organization, BreadcrumbList) and a canonical URL.
