Thread: The methods to optimize our Youtube site

I have found out a few ways to bring in lots of visitors to watch my videos on Youtube which I would like to share with you people as below :-

1) Always upload a video with more then 2 minutes length, you won't find any video with 30 seconds in length that get lots of viewer to watch it.
2) Make a cool thumbnail for your video to attract people attention.
3) Always upload your video at 11.00 am from Monday to Friday in order to get lots of traffic.
4) Join a group in Youtube and post your video there.
5) Leave a comment on those videos that are really hot so lots of people can notice you as well.
6) Finally, insert a link of your video in facebook to tell your friend about it.

I hope this help, thank you !

You can Bookmark your video at various social bookmarking sites, too.

Tag your videos, make a little keyword research toget more tags releated to your video.

This is true, but how do you get that thumbnail to be selected by Youtube? They select the thumbnail for your video.

In what time zone?

You will have to excuse me if I don't believe this to be a very valuable tip. It's always 11am at somewhere on the planet.

I read that embedding a video into a web page can help with SERP positions. I also wonder if it works the other way around where videos rank higher in YouTube search if they have been embedded on a page somewhere. Sort of how backlinks help with SERPs. That's just speculation, though.

Thank you These are some good tips. I do notice a lot of quick 1 minute videos on youtube just offering tips, and I thought this was the right method for optimazation rather than the long 10 min vids, however, the vidoes will get more views if you offer valuable advice. I think the title of your video should be keyword optimized though. You can find out what people are searching for by using the google ad words tool.

Hi,

I don't get the 11 am deal or the fact of more then 2 minutes length.

If it only takes 1min 30 sec to tell the story don't add 30 sec of wasted time.

Is this about your own website or a youtube channel?

And why do you upload videos mainly in 11.00 every day? Why is this time the best for generating traffic?

Sure, you will need a camcorder to do that, the price is around 200USD. then you need a model, the price is around 300USD per night (depend on where you from). Then you need to buy some software for video editing purposes.

The total amount to make a high quality video and upload it to youtube is around $600USD. I hope that will help.

I think facebook is best option to promote your video and always try to choose unique and attractive title for video.

Unique contents, submit unique article related your site title. Directory submission and traffic boosting use twitter's tweets.

I agreed with Benhuebner. You can do Bookmarking of the link of the Youtube video in different Social Bookmarking site and get many visitors to your video. More you can tweet about the video on Twitter.

I think social networks like Facebook, twitter, Orkut, Myspace etc are the best strategies to promote your videos.

nice thread thanks buddy for this kind information this will really help me a lot thanks
