Is it unpossible to drive traffic to my youtube videos?

Moderated: YT topics should be posted in the Social Media Marketing forum.


2 days ago I created my youtube channel ( to promote some affiliate products)
and yesterday I uploaded 11 videos, I have a large number of twitter folowers
when I send out one tweet I usually get about 600 clicks I tweeted about 40 times in a day that usually get me about 10,000 to 50,000 clicks with this message: pic.twitter.com/qZ8JY3Ty6Y How to blabla youtube.com/blaba How to blabla … l5978
the youtube link works and my videos are live and accepted by youtube, I have also tested it and a friend of mine on a other pc could go to the link too, but after I finished my campaign (should get about 10,000 to 50,000 vieuws) I saw that my most populair video has 26 vieuws and no comments and no affiliate link clicks, How is this possible?:confused:

I did another test instead of this tweet pic.twitter.com/qZ8JY3TY How to blabla youtube.com/blabal How to … l5978

I used a url shortner instead of the youtube link after I tweeted I saw that 20 people clicked on the link but when go back to my youtube statics I still see 26 views :confused:

    maybe 20 people clicked on the link, but some of them watched your video twice, so you got 26 views. or some people found your video from google.

      no that is unpossible I got a 100k twitter folllow account when i send out one tweet I get atleast 600 clicks in one time and i tweeted this 48 times so that should give me about 28800 vieuws

      the 20 vieuws are probably from the youtube seach engine

    one of my best methods:
    fb ads to your video
    google adwords for videos (specific)
    finally look at classified ads in this forum: some packages for 30-50 dollars will give you alot of traffic.
    --------------------------------------
    another method, i hired someone from odesk.com and they brought me alot of targted traffic very cheap.

    Hi,

    It isn't just about the QUANTITY of your clicks it's the...

    ...QUALITY of your traffic that is MOST important.

    If it were that easy to send 100,000's of people to our offers etc and see
    instant success it would soon become over saturated as every man and
    his dog would be jumping all over it.

      no but the things is that I just want to have 10,000 vieuws I understand not everybody will click and buy the product in the youtube description, But i only want youtube to show my real vieuws, because only having 26 vieuws while I tweeted a video 50 times to 100k followers, is very very unrealistic I am sure I have to have at least 10000 views not 26 views

      why i want this:
      1. from these 10k views I have a big chance somebody will click my affiliate link and buy the product
      2. having 10k views will make my video more notable so I will increase my chance of selling a offer even more

      How is still possible doesn't youtube like me to promote/drive traffic to my own videos?
      or do i have to wait ( I uploaded 10 videos yesterday and signed up 2 days ago) and youtube tells me all my video are live but the statics are very worng,

      what do I need to do,my whole campaign is just ruined
