Hey guys, I've created a video for my channel I select a good title and everything looks good but after 1 day I don't even get 1 view! Nobody even clicked on my video! How can I pass that?
 
Hi 88888888.

Okay, first of all, congratulates on your first Youtube video. Second, don't feel rejected. There's probably over 500,000 hours of video uploaded to Youtube every single day with 50 million creators.
That means the average person uploading to YT has a very slim chance of their video even being noticed let alone clicked on.

I'm not that successful myself, so I can only pass on to you the advice I've heard from others.

#1. Make custom thumbnails that grab people's attention.
#2 Don't use too many tags, the almighty algorithm will actually penalize you for that.
#3 Promote your video, you can't just expect people to find and watch it.
(I started getting more views after I joined sites like reddit and pinterest. Take note
of the sites youtube ask you if you want to share to when you upload your video and
join some of them if you can. You can automatically share your vids there when you
upload them.)
#4 Try to be relevant to what's trending. For example, if you're doing a gaming channel, try
to have the latest game that just came out and do videos of it. Gamers will always search
for vids, tricks, tips, hacks of the latest video game and want to watch those vids.

You can also have a link to your channel in your account details under your profile.
 
Hi, there are many reasons for this:

1. YouTube recommendation system assigns the most impressions to your video

2. The factors of the video itself, the length of some videos, the optimization of the title, whether there are fewer relevant tags in the description section, and whether the thumbnail of the video can attract viewers to click and watch the video.

These reasons are easy to find, hope my answer is helpful to you

I've moved this too the reviews and channel feedback forum.

Also @Call me tom, please note that YTtalk is an English-speaking forum. Please use English when replying to users (even if your reply is put into Google translate before being sent -- that usually works pretty well!). Thank you!
 
Hey, don't worry we've all been there. With all the content uploaded all the time, it's hard to stand out.
Maybe check if your thumbnail is enticing enough, uses a lot of tags so that your video pops up when people search for some keywords on youtube, also titles, check if they're interesting.

Also, try to post your video on forums (such as this) and that will surely improve the likelihood of people watching more of your videos.

I had no idea about this. How many tags is too many tags?

I honestly have no idea how many is too many. I heard some people say you're okay with as many as 10, others say to keep your tag totals to under 120 characters.
But I do know that once you start adding a bunch of abstract tags to try to broaden your search hits youtube considers it to be spamming.

Took me weeks bro don't stress
 
Be patient. Continue creating new content. Try to focus on the process not on the views.

If you'll do it for long enough time, you'll get better at it, but you have to really love what you're doing and create just for the fun of the process.
