5. Promoting Your Videos through Other Media

As a video blogger, have pages on different social media where you can promote your videos. This helps you create a circle of users outside YouTube and drive organic traffic to your YouTube channel.

You can use the following social media to promote your page: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest. There is a tool called social pilot that you can use to schedule the sharing of your videos on other social media.

6. Making Use of the Video Playlist

Using a playlist is one way of increasing views on YouTube. Once you are done creating and uploading your videos, add them to a new playlist or an existing one.

Tips for playlists:

  • Give the playlist an eye-catching title and include keywords
  • The playlist should contain a detailed description and keywords
  • Similar videos should be grouped
  • A video can feature in more than one playlist.

A playlist can also be found on the search results on YouTube; creating a playlist will help you increase the visibility of your video.

7. Call to Action

While on social media, you need to tell your viewers what you want them to do. It could either be to like, comment, or share your video.

A Call-to-action can be placed in the middle of a video or in the end; using a call-to-action will help increase the exposure of your video.

8. Interview Influencers in Your Niche

One benefit of using influencers is that it gives you access to an already-grown community with large users. When you interview an influencer, it means that the followers of that influencer will get to know you and likely follow you too.

If you do this, you will increase your exposure to the industry because more people will get to know about you. Look for top influencers in your niche and interview them. You can interview them on Skype, Zoom, Instagram, and the likes.

Thanks for your powerful comment, Ahimbe! You've said it right; creating videos without promoting them is like building a mighty house in the middle of the desert where no one will ever see it.
