While YouTube itself is not inherently Game related, Gaming channels seem to be among the most popular uses for YouTube (Except funny cat videos). As a result multimillion subscriber channels have developed such as
Woody'sGamerTag or
Syndicate. While your ultimate goal may be internet fame, this will never materialize if you don't put in the basic work to Increase your Channel's Popularity. Lucky for you I have just the list.
- Perhaps one of the most unused and ignored features for YouTube is SEO (Search Engine Optimization). YouTube is after all the second biggest search engine in the world. While some people devote their lives to mastering the art of SEO (You think i'm kidding!) YouTube makes it easy for us. Use the tag options at the bottom of the video. This has a few basic rules. First use relevant tags. You want people to stick around and subscribe, so don't use tags that aren't relevant to your video.
- YouTube annotations can be a great way to get organic traffic to one of your related video's or just to get people to subscribe. With that being said if people are annoyed you won't be getting any new subscribers or pleasant comments. The lesson don't use annotations spammy.
- Releasing on a schedule can keep people coming back. People like order and routine, so releasing the same time every week in the long run will benefit your channel
- While on the topic of a routine try to create your videos with the same format every time You will get people who hate how you do videos and love it. When switching around how you create them you run the risk of making someone who loved your videos hate them.
