It is the top video sharing platform after Google. It has 2 billion active users per month, and the number of small and medium businesses has doubled in the last two years.

In fact, YouTube is a very competitive place, which means you start uploading videos and get to see results. With more than 50 million content creators making with fresh content per day, making a mark of your own can be challenging. 

 

YouTube offers marketers to enhance their business in two different ways. First, by allowing marketers to create their own YouTube channel to implement marketing strategies. Another way is by letting them advertise their products on videos using YouTube.

 

Let’s start the YouTube Marketing methods!!

1. Create a YouTube Channel:

Still, you have no channel on YouTube? It’s time for you to create! Having a YouTube channel helps promote your marketing on it. While making your YouTube channel, instead of using your Google account, use a Google Brand Account.

 

You have created a YouTube account using your personal Gmail account, and you can only access the account. Or else make a google account with your brand name, the multiple user’s logins, and access to the channel. With two or more people having authorized access and editing permission to your channel, they will frequently work on it. In this way, you can streamline to improve on your channel better.

 

Here are the steps to create your YouTube Channel:

  • Go to YouTube page -> signed with a newly created Google account, and go to your account -> click “My Channel.”
  • In the menu bar on top of the left side, you can make a channel. Click -> My channel, to “Use a business or brand name” option at the bottom.
  • Enter your brand name and create an icon for your channel. Your YouTube channel is ready. 

2. Optimize Your YouTube Channel:

Your YouTube channel is ready, but how to customize your channel. After creating a personalized channel, the first step is to add a unique channel art and channel icon. Whenever the users enter your channel, they will notice the channel icon and channel art. To create your channel easily recognizably, and stand out in the crowd, use images that perfectly oscillate with your brand.

  • Click on the “Customize Channel” -> update the channel icon at the top left corner. 
  • Set the Profile picture, get updated, and appear.
  • Click to “Add channel art” in the middle of the channel(check template for your specifications)
  • Once you have been set all, it’s time to make the “About” section.

3. Optimize Video Title & Description:

Now your YouTube channel is completely created; it’s time to optimize a video title, description, and tags. 

 

Video Title: 

Your YouTube title must be short and informative. Adding effective keywords at the beginning of the title helps to identify the audience easily. Keywords have an essential role in SEO. In YouTube marketing, keywords help to get rank in SERP pages.

 

The video title should not be more than 60 characters. Your title should be attractive and concise. Therefore, add effective keywords in the video titles.

 

Video Description:

This part helps the audience with what your video content is. Adding content related keywords in the description part is as vital for the visibility of the video. Having high-volume keywords can boost your ranking of the video on the search engine and its visibility. 

 

Adding 2-3 keywords in the description part is to improve your ranking. The maximum characters are 5000 to describe your content. 

 

Video Tags:

Tags are an essential key component in creating videos to reach a vast audience. Additionally, video titles and tags have a great time in deciding channel keywords. YouTube channel keywords are terms that make it easier for the audience to search for videos. 

Once you can follow all the rules, your YouTube channel gets the most likes and subscribers.  

4. Create an Effective Thumbnail:

Thumbnails are a more significant part in the YouTube videos. Research says 9 out of 10 most viewed YouTube videos thumbnails are customized.  

 

The thumbnails attracted most of the audience, and they clicked the video to know what the content was. Do you know how to create an attractive thumbnail:
