  1. Качественный контент

    2. It is possible that the point is not at all in optimization of the video and its promotion, but only in the fact that no one is interested in it. Снимать интересное видео – вот универсальный совет на все времена.

    There is no doubt that truly good material will inevitably attract the attention of viewers. At the same time, meaningless and filmed on a bad mobile phone will, at best, cause a bewildered shrug of the shoulders. В худшем же зритель больше никогда не вернется на канал.

  2. Оптимизация ролика

    3. Но на самом деле порой бывает малоTo make a good video, you need to know how to promote it in search rankings. After all, it is often from the search bar that the viewer comes to this or that channel.

Skillfully compiling a title based on key queries and to please the viewer. A potential viewer cannot assess in advance what the video is about. But if you attract his attention with a catchy but meaningful title, the chance of viewing increases significantly

Paid promotion on YouTube, where is the best place to order?

Картинка с логотипом Youtube You can order paid promotion both from YouTube itself and from the owners of third-party resources. In this case, the video may end up in the TOP of YouTube, which will inevitably lead to an increase in the number of views.

Perhaps this is the fastest and easiest, but at the same time the most costly method from a financial point of view.

Of course, you need to be careful and not fall for the bait of scammers who can promise an instant rise to the TOP, but in practice they will only take your money.

  1. “Look at me”

    2. The promotion of a video is largely influenced by the total number of views. Therefore, at first, you can ask to watch videos of your friends and acquaintances. It only takes a few seconds of viewing for YouTube to record it.

    There are entire groups on social networks where participants exchange mutual views, subscriptions, comments and likes. So it makes sense to look there too.

  2. Comments and likes

    3. For some reason, YouTube is more likely to index videos with more comments than those without them. If the video sparks a lively discussion -this will have a very positive impact on his promotion. You can also ask your friends to comment on the video.

    But the situation with likes and dislikes is complicated. Contrary to popular belief, YouTube practically does not react to their number. Another thing is that the viewer, seeing that there are many more likes, may instinctively like himself.

  3. Promotion in social networks and blogs

    4. It makes sense to duplicate each newly uploaded video on a social network or blog. Unfortunately, YouTube currently does not take into account the number of views from third-party resources, but you can always specify in the video settings that viewing is allowed only from YouTube itself.

    The viewer will inevitably switch to the channel to watch what interests him. You can give a link to the video in thematic groups.

  4. Activity on channels

    5. A good way is to be active in the comments on the channels of other YouTubers.Someone will inevitably pop in to see who the person is leaving the comments, and it's quite likely that they'll become another viewer.

  5. Posting on your websites

    6. If you have your own website, you should definitely take advantage of this and post the video on it. Firstly, this will attract additional viewers, and secondly, it will have a positive impact on traffic to the site itself.
