How to advertise a youtube channel?

[Jesse]

It's a minecraft channel, and I've got some really good reviews from people who have seen my videos, especially my newest parkour fail montage, but that's a very small number. I already have it on the minecraft forums, I comment on others channels, I use twitter, and facebook, and I can't really think of anything else :/ what should i do!? Is there any other ways to get videos out there?

Try to reach out to other successful youtubers that do what you do and see if they will give you a shout out on their next video. Make friends with them.

-Bleepit84 is somewhat right, people might help you and you guys can do videos together but hardly any famous/successful youtuber would have time to play with a small crowd. There are people that are also youtube beginners. Try to do collabs with them and offer "I'll sub for a sub". Once you become more known, you'll have more people wanting to collab and half of their viewers might check you out.

-Commenting on other peoples channels is a start but keep going. There are google+ gaming groups, you can join in and share your videos there to catch people's attention. Just ask gaming groups you run into (but shouldn't if they have a rule against it). Also, ask friends around to sub and share about your channel. Spread the word around as much as you can.

Don't bother reaching out to big well known YouTubers, the reason is every other new channel is trying that. Instead look to channels that are the same size or slightly bigger then yours and work up from there. Collaborate, comment on other videos, post response videos, etc. Basically anything you can to get attention.

Also make sure to spend time going over your keywords and video description, a lot of people forget these which can really help get your videos out there.

And finally you should spend a little time and research different methods to promote your videos online.
