You want to grow your Youtube channel or to increase the views of your videos and you don’t know how? Here are some tips on how to obtain more Youtube viewers and subscribers.
Join Forces with Other YouTube Vloggers: YouTube partnerships have become a fairly common thing lately. That’s not a surprise given the fact that they can help YouTubers get much more views, free of charge! The whole point of YouTube partnerships is sharing the viewership. By teaming up with another vlogger, you can double up your viewership easily. Of course, the number of new views, as well as the number of subscribers that a partnership can bring, is something that depends on a large number of factors. In order to get the most of the partnership, you need to pick the right partner. That YouTuber needs to have a similar number of followers as you, deal with a similar subject, and share similar work ethics as you. If a partnership is good, both you and your partner will be satisfied with it, that is, both channels will get new viewers and subscribers.

Create search-friendly (but still human-friendly) titles and descriptions: Before people can watch your videos, they’ve got to find them. That means your SEO strategies have got to be up to scratch. When writing titles and descriptions, Cochrane recommends typing potential keywords into the search bar to see what comes up in the autocomplete. You might get ideas for related search terms you might not have thought of. If they’re relevant to the video you’ve created, include them when appropriate. If not, you may have uncovered an idea for an entirely new video. You can also click on the auto-completed search terms to see what kinds of videos (and how many) already exist for those keywords to get a sense of the competition. Google Trends and the Google Adwords Keyword Planner will also help you uncover powerful keywords to include in your title and description. But don’t include keywords that are not relevant to your video—YouTube will penalize you for doing so. You can also include up to 15 hashtags in your video description.

When someone comes in and only sees the first 10 seconds of your video, they send a signal to YouTube. YouTube interprets how the audience interacts with your video. A powerful indicator is the average viewing time. As you can see, for me it is 30%. Let’s illustrate with a practical example: Suppose you have a clip displayed 100,000 times. The average display duration is 10 seconds. The second video only exceeded 10,000 views. Here, the average display duration is 50 seconds. The second clip will have priority. It is preferable to make quality video content.
