10 effective tips to boost your YouTube channel’s viewership
If you want to increase the audience of your YouTube channel, you need to pay special attention to the quality of your videos and the development of your channel. People around the world watch more than 1 billion hours of YouTube videos every day. You can use some tips to keep your video on that list.
Choosing the right name for your channel
It is easy to remember that the channel name should be like this. The topic you are making videos on should be understood from the channel name.
Determining the content
Decide what type of video you want to make. For example, cooking, yoga or gaming, etc. This will make it easy for viewers to find you.
Optimize the channel
Give the channel profile picture, banner, video watermark, channel description, contact information and featured videos correctly. This makes the channel look professional and viewers trust it easily.
Focus at the beginning
Keep the same type of topic in the first few videos. This will make it clear to the viewer what the main topic of your channel is. For example, if it is a graphic design software channel, first make a video series related to this.
Create an eye-catching thumbnail
Video thumbnails are the first thing that catches the viewer’s eye. Use clear images, large and concise text. Add colorful or creative elements if necessary.
Attracting viewers
The first 10 seconds are important. Use questions, interesting facts or short stories to attract viewers.
Upload videos regularly
Set a schedule for uploading videos, such as once a week or once every two weeks. It is more important to stick to a rule than to how many videos you post.
Write a complete video description
Write clearly what the video shows in the description section. Use keywords if necessary, give timestamps and include your social media links, website and contact information.
Create a video series
Video series attract viewers quite a lot. That is why after watching one video, viewers are interested in watching the previous or next video. This can be made easier by creating a playlist.
Don’t try to be perfect first
It is important to make a good video, not a perfect video. You can start with a smartphone, tripod and good lighting and sound. The most important thing is to create content regularly and learn from your mistakes.
Entertain your audience with videos
The most important thing about videos is to provide information, solutions, or entertainment to your audience. Create simple tips, how-to videos, or any educational content and upload them to your channel.
