How do I promote my videos?

Reddit. If you're looking for a free and easy way to promote your videos, reddit is a great site. There are thousands of people with nothing better to do that look for original content to entertain/occupy their minds. Some of my videos have gotten hundreds of views from there. Highly recommended!
 
Unfortunately the thing about reddit is that the criticism is very harsh sometimes. However, you could try forums of your particular genre, facebook, and other social networking sites like twitter.etc
 
Yeah, reddit is full of trolls.
Really? Reddit is kind of known for being huge circle-jerkers. At worst, I'll get some downvotes and maybe a negative comment or two. If you try enough though, one of your videos might get some traffic. It's worked for me in the past. I can't speak for everybody though.
 
Forums are usually the best in my experience, When we did some Nintendo themed videos we hit up some gaming forums, across 3 forums we managed to rack up an addition 1000 views in traffic. Just don't blatantly Spam, if you actually contribute to some other conversations and some other threads besides your own I think you will find you will have a much better result. Plus if it's a niche your interested in, it isn't really hard work :up:

Normally I find a specific subreddit that is relevant to the video topic. For example, in my feminism video, I found a subreddit about feminism, and one about men's rights. I submitted it to both. If there's no specific subreddit that would be perfect, I use a general one, like videos, wtf, funny, politics, gaming, or something basic.
