And we're not talking about expensive cameras and cool photography here. To create interesting content, remember the rules. You say it, show it. This is especially applicable to vertical rollers. Very fast-paced content requires changing angles because viewers have a clip-based mindset and want to see something new every second. And especially if you are an expert and talking about some useful things. Well, demonstrate it during filming. Yes, don't show yourself, show what you're talking about. The video quality should be high, but not necessarily professional. And there is no need to cut long videos into short ones on your channel. Viewers will immediately sense that you haven't put enough thought into vertical interesting, especially if you're in an expert niche. It's better to write separate plots and create shorts from scratch. And these shorts will definitely help you gain popularity, but you shouldn’t just churn them out on the fly. The theme for each individual shorts must be carefully and meticulously selected. Analyze a bunch of videos then create a video. And this same advice applies to long videos. Tip two. analytics on your first videos. Start by creating your first twenty videos and improve them from release to release. the story more engaging, work on the editing, add some elements, and experiment with covers. And when you release the twenty-first video, you fifty-first, large views will begin to appear . And rest assured that at 101 videos, you'll already have real success, provided you've created quality content. What is this connected with? Yes, it's all simple. This is how YouTube algorithms work . The shots from the first videos do happen, of course, but this is more likely an And when it seems to you that you have made the perfect video, believe me, it is not always something to improve and refine. Success on YouTube takes creating content even when you're not getting anywhere. And patience is that very underestimated factor of success on YouTube. Third tip: link your video The best call to action you can put in your videos is to invite viewers to watch a similar video on the topic another video you already have on your channel. talked about the nuances that exist for small channels, why it’s impossible for them to become big. So, a casual viewer will watch you not for 3-5 minutes, but for two, maybe even three times longer. And this will give a powerful signal to YouTube that you are a cool, you for one video and watched three. Ideally, such a call to action should other is at the end. Where there is a call in the middle, a hint will appear, like I have now. And by the way, watch this video, it will tell you about a business idea interested. And the second call to action will be at the end, when you will be at the end, when you see these end screens. my channel to piece together the full picture of my YouTube work, bit by bit. Bye everyone. And you, as the presenter, at the end of the video need to give a reason to stay and watch this video or this one. What's so good about them and why should they watch them? This is what you should spend your time on at the end of the video, and not say goodbye , see you later, and sum things up. Tip number four: Cool video ideas and titles . Be sure to pay attention to finding an idea. How to do this? You need to cover in your video, enter a keyword on that topic into YouTube search, find all your table, and then determine what works well and come up with an idea for your to copy them, but to take a little bit from each successful competitor—in the titles, previews, and ideas of the video itself—and create something completely To analyze a great idea for a YouTube video, you need to analyze the 100 best works on a similar topic from your competitors' videos. From these hundred, select the 10 best ideas and leave only one for filming. And when you choose the final title, remember that it should arouse curiosity and a desire to watch the video. The fifth tip is content creation. that interest you, but never you'll never burn out, and YouTube won't become a soulless viewing machine for you . Over time, you will learn to present any interesting topic to a wide audience. Two perfect examples: Kuplenov and Wilsa.com. Sixth To do this, it is enough to simply communicate with them , yes, communicate directly the audience is the engine of progress, but within each video, we can control the viewer's attention through reactions. When we see that someone is writing something to us, we need to listen to the wishes of the viewers. If they ask something, answer. If they ask for something, give it. And this principle will allow you to create more regular the return rate of those people who have written to you at least once will be higher and higher. And in general, any reaction from viewers, comments, likes, subscriptions, anything, it increases activity and a secondary indicator on your channel. The better your likely your video is to perform well . And be sure to take into account opinions in the comments. It happens that we think it’s hate, but in fact they are giving some valid comments. And this way you can simply improve your video, problems inside. How many channels have been saved with one simple comment: "Your music is too loud, I can't hear you." Be sure to listen to what they your video will take off further. The seventh piece of advice is to not chase channel growth. Small expert channels have a very narrow audience and a small number of subscribers, but this audience is very deeply engaged with the content. And such channels bring in much more money than other entertainment hype channels. It is the number of subscribers and views on a channel. Yes, here is a living example. Business syndicate. Their videos get between 3,000 and 6,000 views on average. But even on the first day of publication, they collect at least 110 leads from each video. And this is a cool result in income. Each video they make pays for itself small, starting a YouTube channel opportunities. And because of the channel, you may experience rapid career say? On YouTube, you can easily find a spouse or future children. Dad. Dad, is that you? To my spouse and future friends. There's also this specificity: the narrower the channel's niche, the greater the income per subscriber. Tip 8: Choosing the Right Niche Don't worry too much about what niche to choose. Just shoot what you like. Over time, you will figure out what develop your own niche. This is what happened to me too. I've tried everything. And I filmed training sessions, showed how to train a dog, filmed a vlog about a dog, then filmed what visualization is, what neurographics is, then just silly videos. And when I made training videos about YouTube, of course, it didn’t bring me any results, but I realized do it. Not because I'm a cool producer, not because I was great at it , but because I liked it. The ninth tip is trends. to follow trends and use them in your niche. An example from the gadgets niche. This is the simplest and most in-demand niche. Interest in a new gadget peaks on the day it's released, but after the release, it begins to slowly wane. This means that on the day of release it is at the peak of its trend, and then the trend fades away. But few people take into account that the trend begins long before the release of this gadget. If starting to talk about it a year in advance. That's what Wilsak does. The sixteenth iPhone hasn't even been released yet , and people have started discussing some rumors and insider that this situation can be observed in other niches as well. Mazda and Toyota returned to Russia. All content related to this topic will interesting to see what models were brought in and what has changed during the time they were not in Russia. Dubai chocolate has been released. This means that people would like to see some Dubai chocolate. You just need to learn how to spot these trends, as well as identify specific and general triggers in a niche. In previous issues I talked about Here's a hint. I understand that many people don't like the word "trend" so much, something similar to TikTok trends, but this is a little different. Trends help always be one step ahead and take advantage of new waves of popularity. Trends, in fact, in a global sense, are the key to the development of any Monetize your content immediately. It's really bad when newcomers to YouTube plan to make money only after they've gained their first reach and right away, and only after a year does their video start to be well recommended. And decide that they need to sell something, they need to advertise something. This is the wrong approach, because all year you have been releasing content to nowhere audience. If you integrate your advertising and hint at how you can help people for money, then from the very first videos, whether they accidentally or not go viral, you will start earning money. It happens that a video that was released a year ago did not gain any popularity, but a year later it right audience for him, and he became popular. And such a video will definitely bring in money if it has advertising embedded in it. And he also definitely . And if you don’t have any service or product, you have nothing to sell. But make money. For example, affiliate programs with other stores. You drive traffic through YouTube, and you get paid a percentage for it.
