For All My YouTuber Friends in WA - This Might Help You
Hello Everyone! I've been reading a lot of posts recently and I saw that many of us have taken our hands on YouTube. I too myself wanted to start a gaming channel on YouTube. But unfortunately I do not have the required "Gaming Machine".
It is kind of controversial. I talk about Gaming PC's in my site but I don't have one. I just wanted to share a small Piece of information that I found useful for my first "Test Video". The video is about the game PUBG. But anyways getting to the point.
Check Out the Popular Video
First you should head over here. One of our WA members has created this awesome tool to find out the tags. But that is not all. Once you get a hold of the tag, there is one more thing that you might wanna do. I do not know if your already aware of this. But here goes nothing.
You should definitely use his tool to get all those tags and use them on your video. Once you do that, you should first check out the most popular video in your niche. In my case, the zombie mode is the particular area I was interested in. I'll include the screenshot below.
Yes, it was three months before. But I stopped hitting YouTube after that. That was around the time I reached WA. It was so exciting to join the community. I'm sure that If I kept doing it, I would have reached a lot more subscribers. But it was 5 subscribers who still haven't gone even after 3 months lol.
Copy Their "Secrets"
Do use his tool and make sure you are making copies of all their tags. Add those tags to their videos. Keep on reading and You'll know why it helps. The next thing you would want to do is see their watch time. It is the amount of time their video is.
The top video in my niche has like 10 mins of watch length. But I made it 12.38. That is like 2.38 mins extra. Youtube is just like Google. The better and greater the content, the more attention you are gonna get.
But Our goal is not to come out as the first
Yeah! Without the right amount of content density we cannot come on top. IF your Youtube channel has a lot of content, then there is a "Huge possibility that you can come out on top". BUT Our goal is to show up as a suggested video.
A suggested video is the one that shows up in the "up next". Tab. If you analyse the last year searches on YouTube. I did a while back i forgot the link. I'll share it once I get a hold of it again. 60-75% of the views of the now high ranking channels have come from suggestions. Yeah!
This is a very good example of a healthy suggestions video. You can just look at it and say it's SEO'ed. The first video Thumbnail : PUBG ZOMBIE MODE. Yeah the thumbnail. The next is the titla and the third the description.
If They can do it, We can too!
The next best thing you can do after copying their tags is analysing their title and thumbnail. Most of the thumbnails have keywords in them if you look closer. There is more there than meet the eye. Do you know where I'm going with this?
Yes, copy their target keyword! Write an even better eye attracting video title for that. If you see a lot of scary videos, you can see that they use the keyword (Very Scary) in their titles? Yeah, SEO My friend.. SEO..
The final step that comes is to take a look at their description. See what they have done. Copy whatever keywords they are using and write a better longer description. Insert your links. Trace them back to your websites.
By the way guys, if you want me to make videos on YouTube SEO'S I would be more than happy to do that guys. LONG LIVE THE COMMUNITY. You can see from the above pic that those videos are enjoying all the traffic because of that.
I hope that you found this post helpful. By the way, if by chance you know any more awesome tips on YouTube please do share them!
