How do I get my youtube video to get lots of views? - Evie - 04-16-2013 04:05 PM
I made a youtube video yesterday and posted it today. It's my first youtube video and I'm trying to promote it. I've posted it on Twitter, but no-one was really interested haha. I don't want to post it onto Facebook because I really don't like the people in my school, is there any other social media platform I could use to advertise it, or any other hints or tips to get some more views? haha omg I sound so desperate but thanks in advance!
Here's the link to my video if you're interested:

Well you are promoting your video right now. Keep doing it on popular forums such as http:///www.yttalk.com

You lack proper tags, file name optimization, title optimization, and description optimization at first glance. Also have you shared it everywhere else you can think of besides social networking sites? You can use things like blogs or forums to share it around to people who don't know you in real life after all.
For more info try checking out the YouTube Developer's Guide or take a look at the following article:

1) Name your video file with relevant keywords before you upload to YouTube.
2) Title your movie with catchy keywords AND BE SURE TO DO YOUR RESEARCH.
3) Fill out the video description with at least 2 - 3 paragraphs of text.
4) Put all the keywords from the title and description in the "tags" section.
5) Share your video with all your friends.
6) Make a video response to an already popular video on YouTube.
7) Encourage sharing, allow comments, video responses and embedding of your video.
8 ) Embed your new video prominently on your website to create 2 way traffic.
9) Have your fellow bloggers reference or embed the video on their site as well.
