How to Make Yourself Famous on YouTube

 

Becoming popular on YouTube is not simple, but it's possible! The following instructions will help you to understand how to create a successful channel and entertain thousands of subscribers. Follow these steps, and you'll be famous in no-time!

1. Brainstorm what your videos are going to be like. Check the most viewed videos and most subscribed list often, and keep a look out for new YouTubers on the latter list. Looking at the top subscribe list will give you a good perspective on who your audience is and what kind of videos people like. If you can't top the best you probably won't get noticed unless you're really good at what you do. If you find a smaller niche that you can fill and get noticed in try that approach. Make interesting things. Everything may have been done before but there is always something new you can do.
2. Find out what you are interested by. If you make something that you wouldn't enjoy watching, what makes you think anyone will want to watch it? You won't have fun making it and you will lose interest if it's something you're not really that into.
3. Make a few videos. This includes getting a camera, recording, editing, and uploading. You need a few good videos already on your profile, and you'll see why later on. So make something worth watching, about ten videos over the course of a while, maybe a month, so you actually get your own show going. It is not going to be well-known, but this is the first step. If you want to choose an alternative, go to the next step.
4. Use animation. If you don't want to expose yourself to the world, you can try animation. On the downside, you will need to purchase or download some software. If you have a Mac, iMovie is a great software to use.

   Also, YouTube is in partnership with GoAnimate, so you can make your own animations.
5. Make one more video to raise the interest of your audience. Show your appreciation to those who have already seen your videos. This will show your audience that you care about them and it will also trigger the interest of people who haven't seen your channel before.
6. Upload one of your videos as a video response. Find someone who is already famous on YouTube or even someone who might become popular in the future. Hopefully other people will check out your video, notice your appreciation towards your audience and pay a visit to your channel. If that happens, they will be able to watch the videos you have uploaded in the past.
7. Keep your audience entertained. Post more responses and upload more original content, but make sure that you don't post too many videos over a short span of time. Improve the look of your channel too.
8. Be active. If you log in frequently, people will watch your channel frequently.
9. Tag your content properly. Make sure to put relevant tags to all of your videos. People dislike mistagged videos. It's essentially false marketing and people are less likely to appreciate your work.
10. Spread the word. Spread the word by posting your videos on Facebook, Twitter, or Google+. People that follow you or are your friends might show your content to their friends!
11. Learn from the pros. A detailed book written by a real YouTube star will teach you everything you need to know. The best guide available can be found at http://www.moneywithyoutube.com

Tips

• Make sure your video contains popular content.
• Do something you want to do. You'll get the most views if you're happy doing what you like to do.
• Read the comments regularly, and try to connect with the viewers.
• Don't listen to others who are mean to you; just ignore them.
• Take advantage of trailers, especially if you are planning to make a sketch or a play. Also, parodies tend to receive many views. Be creative and original. Put some good effort into your content and you will be rewarded.
• Try not to copy some popular YouTuber's ideas or phrases, for example, TheSyndicateProject says "But why?!" in a funny way. Don't copy him! Make up your own ideas.
• In the middle of every video, YouTube takes a snapshot and uses that picture as a preview. It's called video thumbnail. Most people judge a video by the thumbnail, so make sure to make it interesting.
• Take the constructive criticism in the comments but ignore the hate comments.
• Be yourself! If your going to show the world who you are, make sure you have fun while doing it, and don't pretend to be someone your not.
• Make sure the video is about something worth watching. You are not going to become popular by uploading senseless content. Most of the times you only get one chance at becoming famous.
• Just remeber, nothing happens overnight either. Give it awhile, and maybe even try to do collaboration with other famous youtubers.
• Read comments and ask for feedback from others who watch your videos .
• Be confident and funny. If you don't believe to be funny, nobody will.
• You may want to become a YouTube partner once you're popular enough. If you're a partner, your content will appear in the top of the related videos list, allowing you to receive more views.
• Be creative in what you do to get more views.
• Tell friends or anyone at school or somewhere then friends will pass it on.
• Don't become selfish and conceited when you make it to the top. Remember that your fans and viewers were the ones that got you there and remain humble!
• YouTube does allow videos longer than 15 minutes. You just have to make sure its not copyright infringement, and for viewers' sake, make sure its interesting and relevant.
• Don't hate or block others.If others are being rude to you then you have the right to block them.
• YouTube doesn't allow videos longer than fifteen minutes in length. If your video is longer than fifteen minutes, you can split it into as many parts as you need to. If you've been good standing for a good amount of time and uploaded a few videos, YouTube will let you upload longer videos.
