You have been receiving positive reviews from the few who have watched your video and you are convinced that your videos are worthy of a larger audience. Yet, you haven't been able to expand the viewership for your videos on YouTube. Here are some ways in which your videos can get more YouTube views.
Network with other users
Networking with fellow video publishers is a good way of generating more interest in your video. Comment on videos by other members that have a similar theme or subject as yours. They are likely to respond to your comments and in the process, also see the video you have uploaded. Keep your comments polite and add the link to your videos in your comments.
Maintain quality
Make your videos using the best equipment. When people see poor quality videos made with cell phones and inferior cameras, they will instantly be put off. As it is important that people view your videos and comment on their content, you have to make videos that look good. If your focus is on building your viewership and getting more people to subscribe to your channel, then in addition to using the best equipment to make your video, you will also need to use the best software to edit it and to add attractive graphics and text.
Content
Another important aspect of making your video popular is to ensure that the title of your video is relevant to the content, as viewers want to see what they have been promised. Also, abstract videos may not have a universal appeal. Create videos that have a well thought out plot, a good script and dialogues. Audiences like their videos to be colorful and interesting. However, videos shot aesthetically in sepia or black and white are also popular with people. Knowing what kind of audience you intend to reach with your videos will help you plan out their content and presentation.
Promote your videos
Send out bulletins and messages to friends before and after you upload your video to create an initial viewership. Inform your contacts on YouTube and other social media platforms about your new video. Blog about your upcoming video, add details about why it has been made and what the video intends to communicate. This will pique the interest of your blog followers and encourage them to view your video. The initial popularity of a video matters as it will increase your credibility and that of your video.
Be persistent
Even if you do not receive the kind of response and viewership you initially set out to achieve, you should keep your present viewership interested. Ensure that the quality of your videos remains consistently good and your passion in creating your videos is effectively communicated to your viewers.
With YouTube attracting millions of viewers each day and a huge number of videos vying for attention, you need to follow these suggestions to get more YouTube views. An appealing video, a consistent presence and effective networking can give your video a large number of hits.
