Here Are 7 Dead Simple Strategies I Used ( That’ll Grow Your Channel Too)
-Thread🧵-
1. Do Research
If your quality videos are not getting views, nobody may be searching for that topic
How to do quick research:
• Use YT autocomplete
• Use an extension like VidiQ and check the volume for a keyword
• What channels your subscribers are watching
2. Engage With Your Audience
Engagement comes in two parts:
1. While Recording
• Guide your audience to comment on the video or check another video
• Ask their opinion and problems
2. After Publishing
• Reply to the comments
• Take suggestions and solve problems
3. Create Playlists
This is an underrated way to grow your channel
YouTube will prioritise your videos if people are watching multiple videos from your playlist
If you have many videos, group them as a playlist
That's why teaching something through your videos is important
4. Don't Ignore Thumbnails
Thumbnails are your first contact with your potential audience
A few thumb rules for thumbnails:
• Use your image
• Use minimum words
• Choose good colours
• Stay consistent with the design*
*You will confuse viewers if you change design too much
5. Pay Attention to The Title And The Hook
You know the importance of hooks in tweets & threads
The same is true for YouTube as well
A good title is:
• Short
• To the point
• Creates a curiosity gap
A good title doubles as a good hook as well
6. Deliver On The Promise
Click-baits can get clicks but they won't help you retain the audience
Don't promise something you can't deliver upon
You love your favourite YouTubers because you trust them
People will watch your videos & return if you deliver on your promise
7. Answer the "Whys"
This is the one secret that helped me grow
Good YouTube videos answer why something is right, wrong, this way or that way
Bad YouTube videos don't do that
Study the topic and go deeper than anyone else to answer those whys

What you'll learn:
• Finding a niche

• Ideas for more videos
1. Find An Unsaturated Niche
You won't initially get views if you talk about broader topics such as productivity, habits, lifestyle etc
Teach something or solve a specific problem
Try to learn a skill solely through YT and you will find the gaps
