There\u2019s no denying it; video marketing has been on the rise over the past few years, growing ever more popular and accessible for brands. And while popular sites such as SnapChat, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and even your own website are great places to invest, YouTube remains the giant in the space, with individuals spending a billion hours each day watching videos on this platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to a recent HubSpot survey, <\/span>54% of consumers<\/span><\/a> say they prefer to see video from businesses they use over other types of content.<\/span><\/p>\n

Often referred to as the world\u2019s \u201csecond largest search engine,\u201d YouTube can help your content be found quickly and engaged with thoroughly – if you know a few tricks. Here are 10 effective ways you can grow your YouTube channel.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Find Your Subscriber Magnet<\/span><\/h2>\n

A subscriber magnet is a video that has significantly outperformed the other content that you\u2019ve published. Access your YouTube Analytics report by clicking on \u2018Subscribers\u2019 and \u2018YouTube Watch Page\u2019 to determine which video has performed the best. Your subscriber magnet has proven to get your channel more subscribers so it\u2019s time to promote it. Insert it into your video\u2019s End Screen, put it as the first video on a playlist, and promote it on your other social media channels to drive traffic to your video and get more subscribers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Invest in Custom Thumbnails<\/span><\/h2>\n

The thumbnails on your YouTube videos are one of the first impressions that potential viewers have of your channel. By investing in custom, professionally-designed thumbnails, you\u2019ll be able to put your best foot forward every time. Adding custom thumbnails to your videos helps to establish your brand\u2019s authority on the video platform and encourages people to subscribe to your channel because they know that you\u2019re someone that is invested in the success of your channel.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Create Actionable Playlists<\/span><\/h2>\n

While the majority of playlists are organized by topic on YouTube, organizing your playlist <\/span>by outcome <\/span><\/i>can help grow your channel. By titling your playlist with an outcome instead of a topic, people will be more likely to watch your videos and subscribe to your channel because you\u2019re presenting the value of your content to them directly. For example, instead of titling your playlist \u201cYouTube Videos\u201d, title it \u201cHow to Grow Your YouTube Channel\u201d instead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Make the Most of Your End Screen<\/span><\/h2>\n

By including ten seconds of time at the end of your video for your End Screen, you\u2019ll be able to add links to related videos and call on your viewers to subscribe to your channel. The more of your videos that someone watches, the more likely they are to subscribe; so why not invite them to continue enjoying your content by providing a direct link to another video at the end of the one that they\u2019re watching?<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Add a Branding Watermark\/ Subscribe Button to Your Videos<\/span><\/h2>\n

This is one of the best ways to get more subscribers on your YouTube channel. As you may know, you\u2019re able to include a branding watermark on your videos. This watermark allows viewers to subscribe to your channel while watching your video. However, instead of using your company\u2019s watermark, insert a \u2018Subscribe\u2019 button that looks like one that viewers would see on YouTube. This trick is known to generate up to 70% more subscribers than using a traditional watermark.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Publish Longer Videos<\/span><\/h2>\n

It\u2019s been proven that longer videos rank better in YouTube\u2019s search results. The average video on YouTube is<\/span> just under 15 minutes in length<\/span><\/a>, leading to longer videos consistently outperforming shorter videos in search rankings. We recommend publishing videos that are at least 10 minutes in length to improve your search rankings. The more that people that are exposed to your content, the more people will subscribe to your YouTube channel.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Host a Giveaway\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

A giveaway is one of the quickest ways to get more subscribers on YouTube. By offering your viewers a prize, whether it\u2019s a product, service, or e-book, you\u2019re enticing them into engaging with your channel. Tell your viewers that in order to enter your giveaway, they must be subscribed to your channel. Not only is this a loaded call-to-action, but it will almost guarantee a quick uptick in your subscriber count.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

8. Reply to Every Comment<\/span><\/h2>\n

Replying to comments on your channel is one of the easiest ways to get subscribers on YouTube. By taking the time to interact with your audience, you\u2019re encouraging active participation from your viewers which ultimately results in a larger fanbase. Most YouTubers don\u2019t reply to comments on their videos which is why you\u2019ll instantly stand out once you start communicating with your audience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

9. Write an Engaging Channel Description<\/span><\/h2>\n

When it comes to your video\u2019s SEO, your channel description plays a huge role in the success of your YouTube page. By informing potential subscribers of what your channel is about, when they can expect you to upload new videos, and including a strong call to subscribe, you\u2019ll be able to convert a casual browser to a loyal subscriber in no time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

10. End Every Video with a Call-to-Action<\/span><\/h2>\n

When someone gets to the end of your video, they\u2019re often thinking, \u201cWhat\u2019s next?\u201d And unless you give them an answer to that question, they\u2019ll start watching videos on another channel. Telling your viewers to like, comment, and subscribe is a simple and direct way to increase your subscriber count. Insert another video for them to watch on your End Screen and you\u2019ll have more subscribers on YouTube in no time.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
