Video Creators

To get viewers to come back time and time again you need to really get them to connect with you. Just presenting good content will give them good information, but after they get the information they'll leave and forget about you, your brand, and your channel unless you do two primary things to really help them remember you, like you, and come back for more and more.

Last week YouTube announced a new update that creators have been calling a "new algorithm" that's impacted their views, especially from suggested videos. Some people are claiming to have lost 90% of their views! What's the update really about and how do we modify our strategy to take advantage of the new tools YouTube is providing to viewers? That's what we'll discuss today.

You start your YouTube channel because you're passionate about an idea, a topic, and a way of delivering that value to others. But after a while, your YouTube journey becomes less about the passion and more about the data. It's about views, subscribers, money, and doing whatever we can to keep the stats up. If that's you, don't worry -- that happens to most creators over time. Today we want to talk about a few ideas for how to return back to the passion that got us started so we can again focus on what ultimately matters.

As your channel grows, one of the first hires you may want to make is a video editor. They can free up a tremendous amount of time to enable you to continue working "on the business instead of in the business." Plus, you may get better videos, more watch time, hire retention, and more views as a result. But how do you find a good video editor, hire them, and work with them for best results? Today you'll meet Julia, the person who's edited my videos here at Video Creators for about 5 years and we'll share our behind-the-scenes story as well as give you a process to follow for finding, hiring, and working with your own video editor.

In order to make money on YouTube you need to be able to sell. Whether that be your own product, a sponsor's product, or something else, you need to be able to promote something in order to make money. But sometimes selling too much or doing it the wrong way causes viewers to leave your videos or leave YouTube, which YouTube doesn't like. So how do you promote and sell things without hurting your channel's growth and views? Owen Video is here to help us understand how to do that as well as answer your questions about it.

A mistake a lot of creators make is they bring what they know about optimizing websites for Google and bring those same assumptions over to YouTube thinking that it will help their channels grow, too. While there are some similarities, most of how Google.com functions is very different from how YouTube.com functions. They have different goals and provide different opportunities for discovery. In this episode I talk through some of those differences and how we need to think about discoverability on YouTube vs. Google so we can better grow our channels, reach people, and change their lives.

Throughout a normal YouTube creator's video, they ask people to do certain things. Everything from commenting, liking, subscribing, and even clicking a link in the video's description. All of these can potentially have some kind of impact on the video's growth, but there's really only one thing that makes a significant difference in terms of growth. In this episode, we talk through the top 6 call-to-actions that creators make and list them in order of least amount of impact to most impact on channel growth.
