Growing a YouTube channel requires patience and effort. For some people you can get tons of views and subs in a few month but for some it may take more then a year. The points that will matter as per priority are:
Content quality:
If you are not making good content for your viewers they will not see it all and turn away. This will also make the YouTube algorithm aware of the fact that the content is not keeping the audience engaged hence your video will not be shown in recommendations.Using catchy titles and thumbnails:
As they say first impression is the last impression. Remember that your video will be shown with other similar videos in search or suggestions so they will have to decide which one to watch and if it is not presentable then you will most likely be left unnoticed.Keywords and description:
It is important for you to write about your content and include the keywords which your audience will search for. If you want to make a video on say ‘how to boil an egg?’ you should write a title like ‘how we boil an egg?’ or to make it more catchy ‘Amazing way to Boil an egg?’ but see you must include the word ‘boil an egg’ to let the video pop up in search results. Also don’t become lazy to just write a line of description. Write at least a paragraph of 9 lines and in first three lines fill the description with hashtags and keywords.Analytics:
Use the analytics of your videos to get most useful information like how long does your audience watch your video, what is the better traffic source for your video, which type of videos are performing well and so on. This information can be useful for your future videos and you will need to modify your content accordingly, e.g if your audience engagement is less you will have to modify your content so that they stay at your video for longer period of time.Learning from others:
See what other creators are making on the same topic and learn what makes their videos successful. Read their description, see their thumbnails and also notice what mistakes they did or what information they left then try making an updates version of the same content with better title thumbnail and description.
Detailed Guide for growing your YouTube Channel:
As far as YouTube is concerned, it is important to note that no matter how good your content is or what your intentions are, the fact that it wants to keep the audience engaged so it can get most useful data form them, audience engagement becomes a key factor for your success. Your content should be such that it keeps audience engaged on the platform. What is a better way to make such content is to decide how others would like to see it. Also it is very important to keep in view your audience, the people who are watching your videos. A good strategy to gain more subscribers is to ask your audience to subscribe themselves. For this you must provide a well define reason why they should subscribe to your channel.
A good practice to create better content is to plan before production i.e. you should know and have at least an idea of what you are about to make and how it must look. You can check out some better ways to create good content here.
Keywords also play an important role to make people discover your content. Hence it is suggested by everyone to do a keyword research before deciding the title of your content. A free option available to use is the Bing's Keyword Research tool but Google keyword planner or Semrush are proven to be more useful. It’s important to pick your keyword before you craft your video content as it helps you construct the best information around that specific topic. It also helps you remember to include your keyword naturally throughout the content so YouTube picks it up when closed captions are added. Once you choose a keyword, check out the videos that currently rank for that topic to make sure you’re on the right track in terms of intent and always optimize your title and descriptions.
The fact that Growing on YouTube is not an overnight process, you should be ready for a long term time investment plan and it will indeed take time to grow your audience. For some people it might be as quick as in a month to pass 1000 subscribers but on average it will can take 4-5 months to surpass this milestone. An easy way of achieving this milestone is to distribute it in small goals like I was trying to stress my audience to make me get 100 subscribes and when I reached the goals i celebrated it with my audience by making a video and thanking them for sharing my content. These small things will add to the audience engagement and they will watch your videos for more time. Thus your engaging with your audience will make your videos successful and growth faster. You can always plan giveaways or leave a link for some coupon codes/discounts in your videos or a link to E books or PDFs as a reward for them to increase their interest in your videos.
What is a mistake that most often new youtubers do is that they fall prey to different promotion programs telegram channels or sub for sub policies. That is a completely flop way o growing on YouTube! It may seem that you are gaining subscribers or likes but the fact is that they are not an audience who will watch your video. This way It will be more difficult for your videos to pop up in suggestions. Some even get scammed by purchasing subscribers form these unknown channels or sites. Thus try not to share your videos in those platforms also try not to share it with friends. As some of them might just click and not watch the whole video as my friends did with me (-_-). Try to just upload the video and let the YouTube find the right audience for you.
Trick to get subscribers faster
Alright we know that humans are impatient and you need more subscribers fast. So what is a good way to get more subscribers quickly is to make YouTube Shorts. The fact is that these shorts get listed in shorts feed and it is very much likely that your short will be given a chance to reach thousands of people in shorts feed. This is faster than getting suggested and if your content is good you will be able to get more people to subscribe to your channel. You can reffer to the channels like dental digest or iballcelebs to get to know how fast they grew using shorts.
Know Your Niche:
What is a must thing for a successful youtube journey is to have a clear thought of what your videos are about to be. For instance if they are about tech then you must not post food or vlogs on this channel. It will disturb the discipline of the channel and will result in poor ranking of your videos.
You must take a serious note of the fact that deciding to work on YouTube with an intention to earn money only will not give you success. The thing is that you must have a clear understanding of what you are about to do. This is an important strategy for successful YouTube journey.
In the end you can promote your content using ads. This is the last thing I say you will need. Ads can help you gain viewers or subscribers fast but it will need a good amount of money to flow out from your pocket. Some good ad platforms that you can use is the YouTube ads. As it will let the viewers already on YouTube to explore your content. You can try other ads services also like Google ads or Facebook ads or any other media but as I said it should be the last resort of all issues.
