Tips & Tricks Any tips for getting videos seen by more people ?

[Brandon weeks]

Has any one got any good tips to get YouTube videos seen by a larger amount of people ? As I have been told that my videos are very well presented and are entertaining however I don't feel they get the right amount of views ? Any tips would be much appreciated

Improve some of you thumbnails, make them better and some of your videos havent custom thumbnails I think if you use more custom thumbnails (and they must looking like "I wanna click on this sh*t" ) then you get more views Maybe improve your video desc too, its a little bit confusing

I do try to make custom thumbnails but sometimes I cannot access the screenshots I take with my current computer but I should be getting a new one soon so hopefully that will help, thank you for the feedback as well man I really appreciate it and what is a video desc ?

 

[Der Sky]

Oh sorry i mean the video description

In Adobe Premiere you can take while editing the Video Screenshot, if you use this Software

It looks just better Try to use more custom thumbnails and better thumbnails, then you see a nice effect and dont forget to use "special" video titles, but not to extreme titles xD

No Problem You can ask me if you need more tips

 

[Brandon weeks]

Nice one I will try to use all of these tips to the best of my ability

If you need or don't know how to make custom thumbnails then I can make them for you. I can make you thumbnails for only 25 cents. Here is my portfolio:

Have a good title and a lot of tags!

Have a good title and a lot of tags!

Tags are not the main point You can have some good tags, but 100000 tags dont work
You need a good title, a thumbnail you wanna click on and good video content for generating watch time. With Watch time you can get a higher "video rank" on the youtube search page

What helped me out a lot is finding Facebook groups similar to my video and commenting on them and posting a yt link of the video. You can't just drop your link and leave the link needs to be relevant to the post,
Example:
I have a taste test video of a soda called Dirt Soda so I did a facebook search for weird drinks and found a Facebook Group about weird food, another one about taste test and even another one called Wierd Soda Review. I weaved my link into the comments of each and I got over 2k of views and 5 new subs which is big for my channel.

You can use the same method on Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, etc.

Hope this helps.

Please know I'm telling you this so that you can improve and i'm focusing on the negqative as it's what needs changing. The positives won't be listed.

your thumbnails are drab and don't "pop" try to play with ways to make them stand out and be more easy to read and make distinguishable. You can make dark thumbnails that aren't "drab" here are two examples 1 and 2 those might be a bit too cartoony but here is one that might help you find your art style as it's dark, grungy, and it pops.
