How To Get More Views On YouTube Tip #1 – Interesting Content

The first thing you need to pay attention to is the actual content of your video. I know this may sound obvious, but so many people really miss the boat on this. They just put up a boring video that no one wants to watch. Your videos need to be entertaining in some way. If it fits, work in some humor. Everyone loves to laugh. Watch some other people’s videos that are getting lots of hits. See what they are doing. Make your video your own style but use a similar format and your video should be just as popular.

Also, don’t put up a title to attract attention and then have your video be about something else. This is a sure way to be sure people who find your video and start watching it, won’t be back to look at more of your videos.

How To Get More Views On YouTube Tip #2 – Video Length

People’s lives today are very busy. The last thing someone wants to do is to sit down to learn some new information or find out about something they need information on and get a really long drawn out video. We live in a instant gratification society today. People want the answer and they want it right away. So, for this reason, be sure to get right to the point in your video and unless it is really necessary, don’t go much longer than 5 minutes. If your video needs to be longer than 5 minutes, consider breaking it up into smaller segments. This will help keep your viewers attention.

How To Get More Views On YouTube Tip #3 – Laughter is Key

Have you ever watched a video that was just down right funny? How did you feel when you got done? Great, Right? Well, wouldn’t you like your viewers to feel the same way when they get done watching your videos? Humor is a great way to keep your viewers coming back for more videos. Learning something new isn’t as painful if your having a good time doing it. Don’t try to force the humor in your video, try to let it come naturally if possible. The more you practice this the easier it will get to work humor into each of your videos.

How To Get More Views On YouTube Tip #4 – Brand Your Content

After you are done recording your video, be sure to brand it so people know where it came from, who was in the video. You never know how your video will be shared. Someone may see it and not be on your website, if there isn’t anything to let them know who you are or where your video came from, they will just be left wondering.
