How do YOU convert YouTube viewers?

by daviddifranco
7 replies
My channel of 100,000+ subscribers is primarily focused on technology. I typically list my websites in the video description, as well as any Amazon affiliate links that apply to a product review, unboxing, etc. This method seems to do fairly well, but I am looking to take the next step.

So what do YOU do on YouTube to generate revenue? I'm interested in swapping ideas with one another.

    May I ask you what your YouTube Channel is because I'm really trying to grow my channel and I see you have grown to a pretty big channel now.

      Patreon is awesome for making money out of YouTube channels. Your fans pay you a small amount per video and you get paid every time you publish a YouTube video!

        I've actually been running a successful Patreon campaign for a few months. I'm more concerned with getting viewers to visit my website and possibly sign up through one of my web host affiliate links in the process.

      Another effective method is to add a call to action in the video (User clicks on the video and gets directed to offer.

      Creating clear and concise CTA's can be highly effective! Depending on your message you can use the beginning, middle or end of the video to direct viewers actions.

      Also to many prompts can be confusing so try and keep them minimal and simple. The goal is to make it easy as possible for the viewers to perform the action.

      Here are a few other tips / actions you should have on your videos :
      --> Subscribe = give them a reason to subscribe
      -->Like / Add to Fav / Share = Ask them!
      -->Comments = Ask specific questions, get them engaged.
      -->Video Graphics = Create an end slate at the end of your videos that direct viewers to your site.

      Hope this helps a bit! Good Luck and Cheers to your success!
