9. Create YouTube playlists based on SEO keywords

Playlists on YouTube are useful for better organizing channel content and for having extra text-based content (and target keywords), which will result in more views and, again, a better image compared to YouTube.

10. Take care of the authority of your YouTube channel

Many times it is easy to get hundreds of likes and views on a video but that does not mean that you are doing everything right.

To achieve a comprehensive classification in your work, you must take care of the authority of your channel. That is, promote the channel as a whole, not just promote the videos.

A clear example of this would be when someone uploads a video to YouTube and makes it reach the public. Then time passes, a long time, and no one else knows about that person who managed to viralize that video. What happened? He didn't worry about taking care of his channel!

What I am saying is that you should worry about issues such as the title, the tags, and everything else that I have been talking about in this post, but also about the amount of content you create and the frequency with which you create it.

11. Interact at the comment section in your videos.

Interacting is important to your channel, and responding to comments is part of this interaction that YouTube hopes its users can have.

The more willing you are to establish fluid communication with your subscribers, the more authority your channel will gain and the more comments you will get. It is a dynamic feedback that will be very pleasant for the public, and useful for the SEO of your videos on YouTube.

12. Prioritize user experience (UX) in your SEO for YouTube

Google is the king when it comes to user experience (UX)

Those who go to YouTube are because they want specific, simple, understandable and fast things. Time matters a lot in the multimedia world we live in. Prepare your videos trying not to be unnecessarily long, rather take advantage of the first 15 or 30 seconds to give interesting messages to your audience and urge them to watch the entire video.

Sometimes an image will speak for itself! Now, if you have a 15 minute video but the first two minutes were spent giving an introduction that nobody cares about, I assure you that people will think that your channel and your videos are a waste of time.

Keep your audience hooked!

If someone who came to watch a video leaves the channel at the end of the video, then YouTube interprets that the channel was not useful to that person. If, on the other hand, the person continued to watch video then it is because they got hooked on the content they got, which is the purpose of this platform: to keep users as long as possible on it.

Statistics don't lie! The most viewed videos on YouTube are between 4 and 6 minutes long on average.

13. Use YouTube Cards and EndScreen

Cards are annotations or notifications that are created and placed on videos to sponsor other videos or invite the public to subscribe to the channel. They are simple to create and very useful.

As for the EndScreen or final screens, these are similar to the cards, but they are reserved for the end of the video. They are a bit more detailed and more visually appealing. You should know that there are certain parameters that you must comply with to create final screens suitable for YouTube, among which it stands out that these are useful for the user and not only used to gain publicity or other benefit.
