I have a question... YouTube suggests using a strategy involving three types of videos for channels: Help content - evergreen, searchable content that informs people Hub content - regularly created content designed around viewers' interests Hero content - content that may appeal to a broad...

I am a casual gamer (playing Hearthstone) and my first few videos do not have too many views. I know this is a common complaint, but is it my tags/descriptions/titles? I try to make good looking thumbnails and use informative and honest titles. I also fill my description and tags with keywords...

Does having links linking to my video from other high authority / high rated videos improve the rating / rank or my video? :unsure: Either link to my video from other video descriptions and/or links from on the video (annotations, cards, etc..). :P

Hey friends, Over the last 13 months, I have created a vlogging/music channel on YouTube that documents my travels as a musician. I've made a few hundred videos of my tours playing songs all across Europe and America. I feel that with each video I make, I am gaining more confidence in my...

Hey all, Relatively new youtuber in the gaming sphere; I keep seeing a lot of people talking about optimizing their SEO by finding a niche or a market within the market to really show up in searches. My question is simply how does one find this mystical and evasive combination of tags...

So I posted a new video today, and I cannot get it to rank on any of the keywords I targeted (Shopkins Blind Basket). Tag Buddy gives a Keyword Score of 83/100 with the Search Volume as Very High and Competition Low. This includes on weekly/monthly filters. Can someone illuminate what I'm doing...

This got my interest. Many channels have a "discussion" section, you can enable it too if you want (if you don't have it already), and I'm wondering what impact does it have for SEO.. If your viewers comment there a lot of keywords, will you rank higher in search results? Same goes for regular...

I thought I would share some of my strategies since they seem to be working fairly well for me. Let's start with demotivation. It will never be enough. I have earned 509 subs in 90 days, 150 in 28 days and 25 the last 7 days. This growth is more then I could ever imagined, and yet I still find...

Hey everyone. I know how important SEO is on Google related platforms. Now I understand how you can generate traffic for other channels, by using specific keywords. But as a vlogger I can't write titles like "top5 reasons for ..." or "How to get ...". So my question is, how can I leverage SEO as...

Hey guys, I came across this video it isn't mine, but it has a lot of information on Youtube SEO and is just an overall motivational video for all Youtubers out there. I learned a lot from it and I felt it was necessary to share this with as many people as I could. Hope everyone enjoys it and...

I don't claim to be an expert on SEO or metadata, but it seems to me that in threads talking about these subjects, there is a basic misunderstanding that a lot of people have. Based on everything I've read so far, I thought of an analogy to explain SEO & metadata very simply. Please let me know...

At the end of January I tried harder at SEO. With each new video I used the free Tube Buddy program and tried to select tags with high search volume and low competition. Sometimes it was pretty hard to find these. I then used these phrases in the title and description. Basically I tried to...

Hi everyone. I created YouTube Channel with my wife about artists some months ago. The concept is sharing artist creativity and behind their works. Audience could be some people who loves art or beautiful things. We started from local artist in Toronto, Canada where we live and update every...

Am I the only one who dislikes the new youtube and how it's become substantially less user friendly to growing your channels? When I started, I could average near 1000 views in any one day and video responses were thing, new videos stood a chance of appearing first in searches. I just found now...

Hey there everyone, its been awhile since I've made a thread here but here goes. So I've been researching Youtube SEO for a week or two and I came across a topic called "Backlinks", I did some research on it and it is actually putting some of your video links on other website (small small links...

Does anyone have any experience testing whether the language specified in the advanced settings when publishing ones video has any effect on where your videos are promoted eg. in related videos and search? We've left ours unspecified on most of them but I see there is an option for English US...

There was a recent thread in which HambyGirl said that her YouTube contact told her how titles and descriptions are FAR MORE important than tags. Then, YouTube took away the "suggested tags" feature and they explain it like this: This is from Derral Eves' latest video and although he...

With all the talk about SEO, tags and searches being important and such. Just a thing I'm really curious about is that: How many views do you get per search term per day (on average) for your highest search term you have? Mine is approximately around 37 views per search term per day on...

Most of my videos are tutorials but I believe it is not so easy to create a relationship with your viewers with educational slide show presentations if you don´t show your face on video once in a while. What do you think? will changing video category i.e from education to entertainment once in...

Here is an infographic explaning the YouTube ranking factors. I have found it on the German blog from Simon Rueger and thought that it may be interesting for you. The original content is in German, so I edited it with MS Paint. Please forgive the poor editing quality, but it was quickly done...

So, many of you know I've been a long proponent of TubeBuddy and even helped with some tutorials on this site, as well as made a few videos for their channel, but I wanted to see what you all had for success with the app!

Now YouTube lets people to translate other youtuber's videos... Now I'm asking myself (and so to you too) what exactly is the advantage on translating contents of other youtubers? [except the satisfation of helping a friend or a youtuber we love, naturally] :twins: Initially I thought "maybe...

So I just did another experiment on a video I did a couple months ago to see how to optimize a similar video I'm going to make today. Before I added the bottom 6 tags in the picture, searching for "dog barking at dogs on TV" my video did not show up on the first two pages of search results even...

Hey all, so I've been trying to do as much as I can to "step things up" moving into 2016, and titles are something I need to think about. Main question: How important is each side in the balance of a creative/compelling title versus SEO-friendly title? Premise: I run a tech channel where I...

SEO: Search Engine Optimization is something I picked up while making websites and blogs for people. Optimizing your content for search engines is the single most important thing you can do IMO. Aside from having quality content of course. YouTube is a search engine like GOOGLE, Bing, yahoo...

Hello everyone, Just wondering: I read on a book by some decent YouTube consultant that in order to get views and consequently subscribers, I need to craft very interesting, eye-catching titles. What I don't understand is, I don't think that people are going to type exactly the title that...
