Takeaways

• 😀 Make sure your YouTube account is verified to help the algorithm properly target your content to the right audience.
• 😀 Adding value to your content is crucial—don’t just repurpose other people's videos or use AI-generated content without adding something unique.
• 😀 Avoid the 'post and ghost' trap—engage with your audience and other creators after posting your videos to help boost your visibility.
• 😀 Optimize your videos (titles, descriptions, tags, thumbnails, etc.) to give the YouTube algorithm the information it needs to recommend your content to the right viewers.
• 😀 Don’t upload too many videos at once when starting a new channel—YouTube might mistake it for spam.
• 😀 If you’re using a new account, spend time engaging with other content before you start posting to establish credibility with YouTube’s algorithm.
• 😀 Posting more than one video per day can hurt your growth—stick to one video per day to give each video enough time to gather data and reach the right audience.
• 😀 Use a well-established account or engage with your new account for a few weeks before posting to help YouTube recognize it as a legitimate user.
• 😀 Engagement with the YouTube community (liking, commenting, and watching content) is key to becoming a valued contributor in the YouTube ecosystem.
• 😀 Remember to create content that’s original and offers something of value; content that’s too similar to others or lacks quality won’t perform well on YouTube.

Q & A

Why is account verification important for getting views on YouTube?

Account verification helps YouTube confirm that a real human is operating the account, not a bot. It also enables YouTube to target your content to the right geographical and demographic audience, increasing your chances of getting views.

What is meant by posting and ghosting, and why should creators avoid it?

Posting and ghosting refers to uploading a video and then not engaging with the YouTube community afterward. Creators should avoid this as YouTube rewards active contributors who engage with their own videos and other creators, which helps boost visibility and engagement.

How can a creator optimize their videos for better reach?

Video optimization involves using proper SEO strategies, such as a relevant file name, title, description, tags, hashtags, and thumbnail. This helps the YouTube algorithm identify and recommend your content to the right audience.

What should you do if your YouTube account is new and you're not getting views?

If your account is new, engage with other videos by liking, commenting, and watching content to help the algorithm recognize that your account is human-operated. Also, ensure your profile is set up with a description, photo, and channel tags to improve visibility.

How does YouTube's algorithm respond to AI-generated content?

YouTube’s algorithm tends to restrict AI-generated content if it's poor quality or lacks originality. While AI content can work, it must provide value to the viewer. Content that’s simply repurposed or overly basic will likely be suppressed.

What impact does uploading too many videos in a day have on a new channel?

Uploading too many videos in a single day can split the algorithm’s focus, causing it to prioritize multiple videos instead of pushing out the best-performing ones. It's better to upload no more than one video per day to give each video enough time to perform well.

Why is it important to engage with your content after uploading it?

Engaging with your own content by watching it, commenting, and interacting with others shows YouTube that you're active and contributing to the platform. This helps increase your visibility and may lead to better performance in the algorithm.

What are some key areas to focus on when optimizing video content?

The key areas for optimization include the file name, title, description, tags, hashtags, and thumbnails. These elements help YouTube understand your content and recommend it to the right audience.

How can AI tools like Nexus Clips help YouTube creators?

AI tools like Nexus Clips can help creators by automatically generating viral Shorts from long-form content. These tools extract the best parts of videos, add animated subtitles, and make the content more engaging, boosting the chances of it going viral.

What’s the recommended upload frequency for new YouTube channels?

For new channels, it's recommended to post no more than one video per day. Uploading too frequently, especially with fewer than 10,000 subscribers, can reduce the algorithm's ability to focus on promoting individual videos.
