How to rank high on YouTube

Simplified YouTube traffic

Did you know that YouTube is ranked #3 on the entire internet as one of the most popular sites in the world according to Alexa.com?

I’m sure you knew that. Look at these stats:

o Total number of YouTube videos = more than 120,000,000
o Number of videos uploaded per day = about 200,000
o Time required to view all videos = more than 600 years
o Number of videos viewed daily = more than 100,000,000
o Amount of content uploaded every minute = 13 hours
o Number of accounts on YouTube = more than 300,000,000

Obviously this is the best place to drive traffic to your website or become popular online, but the competition is stiff and getting people to watch your videos gets harder by the minute.

So, today I am going to share some of my tricks that I personally use to get more views, ratings and subscribers on your YouTube account.

Page 1 of YouTube Traffic Made Easy

YouTube is like Google, people search for something and expect to get results (in this case videos) related to the keywords they used.

Well let’s say you wanted to post a video on “How to Blog” if you go on YouTube now and type the exact same thing about 85,000 results they will show up but of course most people only look at the first page your goal is be on that first page and here’s how to do it.

SECRET TIP #1: Every time you go to upload a new video, search for keywords related to the content of the video you are uploading, the video with the most views will appear on the first page, so before you upload your video, click in the first video on the first page and see your video information. You must copy their tags, but not their description. The purpose of this is to get your video in their related videos, even though yours is new, giving you a higher chance of exposure.

NOTE: If your video has a lot of views, it will instantly dominate the keyword you’re searching for, making it #1 on the first page, and even if you don’t have a lot of views, it’s possible to only be on the first page. copying the tags of the most popular video.

Increase your YouTube views.

Some people try to trick YouTube into trying to get more exposure for their videos by using auto-updates and software like Tubeincreaser to give fake views to their videos. I think this is unnecessary because the whole point of uploading videos is for people to watch them.

But, if you still feel the need to do it, you can do it with simple YouTube.

SECRET TIP #2: After you’ve uploaded your video, go to My Videos > Change Audio and click “I’m Feeling Lucky” as many times as you like, this action will reload your video over and over again with different songs in seconds , giving you instant views every time you reload, once you get the views you want just quit and don’t save your changes, since you’re doing it inside YouTube, your views won’t freeze once they reach a certain amount, but if you use software like tubeincreaser, there is a chance that your views will freeze.

AUDIOSWAP: Allows you to replace the background sound of your music with music provided by YouTube.

Get subscriptions, comments and ratings on YOUTUBE

Subscriptions on YouTube are the main topic, people like to have subscribers, which is equivalent to followers on Twitter. Now I will share some tips that will help you gain subscribers on YouTube.

o Offer something free to share with viewers, or give viewers something for free, for example an e-book or share something someone might enjoy, usually giving gifts can help you gain subscribers.

o Upload videos every month constant activity and videos on your channel will earn you subscribers, there are more chances of getting subscribers if you have 5 videos than someone who has 1

o Subscribe to other people’s channels, sometimes they will re-subscribe

o Comment, rate and compliment videos as well as channels you like, some users will appreciate it and subscribe in return.

o Also add as many friends as you can, it will not only make you popular but your videos will be seen more.

YouTube and Google

Since YouTube is owned by Google, your videos may sometime show up as results on Google, the more views you have, the more traffic you get and the more popular your channel will be.

One more tip when uploading a video, make sure your video title is always clear and related to the content of the video, when a user performs a search on YouTube or Google, they look for titles related to the keywords.

If your title is “How to Blog” and a user types in the same keywords, your video will most likely show up as the first result, numbers and symbols may not be helpful for better ranking on YouTube or Google.
