Just starting out with Youtube Marketing

19 replies
I'm wondering how can I get views for my videos. I've tried this before and I usually only end up getting about 20 views or less. I see others getting thousands of views for the same topic.

    Views can be artificially generated! With scrapebox for example!

    you should have many subscriber on your youtube channel. Or, you can just buy traffic(youtube views) for your video from seller out there.

      The best thing is also to have a blog with a lot of traffic. Then you can post you YouTube video there, and you will get more views.

    1) You can buy views, which most people do nowadays
    2) You can piggyback on videos with lots of views with some sneaky tactics so your videos shows up in the "simila videos" section
    3) You should produce lots of videos, make up in volume what you cant make up in number e.g if you average 300 views per one video, create 100 videos to get 30k views :-)
    4) some say if you have a video sitemap on your website, keyword focused title, your video will show up on Google search page...

    etc
    4) Submit videos regularly and your channel will be taken seriously by youtube

      You can always buy views, which I don't think is really the way to go. The best way is to get your videos ranked in Youtube and Google.

      1) You can go first optimize your video with using the keyword first in the Title

      2)You can also write your description using your keyword plus 2 more LSI keywords( no brainer: always make sure you have your link first in description)

      3) You can use your keywords and LSI keywords in your tags

      4) Also Go to some of the top videos for your keywords and steal some of their tags so you can get referred traffic.

      5) Next Go to socialmaximizer.com and purchase 48 pr 3 social bookmarking backlinks for less than $10 bucks.

      6) They will have your backlinks in a couple of days then you can submit your Backlinks or your rss backlinks to Rss submitter or mass pinger for instant indexing of your backlinks.

      7) Within in a couple of weeks or sometimes days you should see your video moving up in the rankings and getting tons of REAL views which in turns will make you $$$$$

    You can get views by many different ways.

    Driving traffic by promoting your video or ranking it in the SERPS is one way of getting views to your video.

    However, if you are just starting off and do not have it ranked then what I recommend is going to YouLikeHits or Twiends.com and registering your video there so you can drive natural traffic (of real people) to watch your videos for free.

    You can also use Viewet which is a free software to get views. I like using this for the first 300 views, then your view count will do something called "freeze" which is when no more views will be registered for a while.

    To break that "freeze" time I will send it on over to YouLikeHits or Twiends to go for beyond the 300 view count.

    Good luck.

    - Paul

    You want to build up a YouTube following too. Post lots of videos to your channel & work to get subscribers. Make your videos educational, entertaining or, depending on the topic, make them a little controversial - those are the type of things people like watching & will share with their friends thus getting you more views.

    But to reiterate my first point, strive to create an active community with your videos.

    Are the videos interesting, or different? I find a lot of marketers aretrying to get views to very boring 'me-to' videos. All of the following like, keyword in the title, description and in the tags and comments can help, but it starts with a good video.

    You need to visit a site called "pimp my views" where they'll offer a service to increase your views which will increase your ranking. Also, another tool you could use is tube tool box. Your ranking in youtube depends on quite a few things: you need to have a good long description in your description with your tags/keywords scattered within it at least 3 to 4 times. Also, pinging and getting backlinks to your videos URL also helps the ranking and increases the chances of your videos getting indexed. Hope that helps some...

    Youtube marketing is good,but it also depends on the demographics you see I don't think youtube can bring targeted traffic even if someone comes to your site the chance of getting a sale or getting a lead is too low.

    first i am going to say, i don't really know anything about youtube marketing.

    now with that said, i do have a youtube channel with 13 videos.
    i have not done anything, haven't tried to work the keywords,
    haven't purchased views. all i did was upload them and give a description.

    i don't even have a call to action.
    i don't have a link

    but some how they are picking up momentum, and i am am selling products directly thru these vids. not a lot. but a few a wk. ( 130.00 ) product
    and a ( 67.00 ) product.

    they do come up in number one in google, so maybe that is how

    and i did nothing special to get it there, it happened all on its own.

    i know this does not answer your question,

    but then again , maybe it does

    edit--
    i forgot to mention, i only have 4 Subscribers and approx 1700 total views and 2 comments

    Pick good titles for your videos that are in a HOT niche.

    Offer REAL value in the videos i.e show a secret or something else that no-one is showing.

    Leave comments on other Youtube videos that are similar - obviously don't spam but what you CAN do is leave comments and mention what your channel will show people.

    Make sure you get your site ranked and add the video to your site in the niche and you will get more views.

    Encourage people to subscribe to your channel and "Like" your video with annotations within the video.

    Use a site like tubemogul.com which is free and will blast your video to all the popular video sharing sites.

    I hope this helps?

    You have to use your keywords in the title of the video as well as in the description.

    Make the description at least 200 words filled with your keywords and you'll come up more in search results.

    You have done the (fun) part of creating your video, which is 25% of the equation.

    Now, the tedious part: seo-ing it, the other 75%, where many people (me included and first) absolutely hate to do or don't want to do.

    You can use YouTube view exchange sites to get more views to your video. That is how I used to increase my video views

    I've heard you can gain a lot of traffic by leaving video responses to popular videos (in the same niche)
