Every time I google a solution for a simple problem (like where to find a feature of a software in its menus or how to calculate something) I always have to navigate past the dozen youtube links to find the article or manual that tells me the solution in 10 lines of text.
If your tutorial could be a webpage then you shouldn’t do it.

Edit: to all the people that suggest to make a specific query in the search, that’s just a partial solution because there are times I don’t know the entity of the solution and youtube could be a good place to look for.

    I think a lot of it has to do with monetization - YouTube pays much better than text. (also has less embarrassing ads than all the gut doctor / weight loss / toenail fungus / 15 Celebrity Wardrobe Fails crap that text sites seem to all be using these days)
