How do I advertise my youtube channel?

[karl]

I'm completely sick of having no views on youtube. If I have 44 subscribers, why do none of my new videos get any views? It's just crazy. My channel is a gaming channel with commentary. I've branded myself as the "N00B Gamer and Commentator." I've shared to my facebook and twitter, though I don't see how that helps me since I don't have friends or followers. The only explanation I have for my viewcounts being 0-3 is that no one knows I exist. Is there anything I can do or am I stuck in limbo?

Hello

You are calling yourself stupid. Remove NOOB! You are branding yourself as a stupid person. Ask yourself why would people want to watch a stupid person's videos.

Become smarter, and then post your videos on youtube.

Posting advertisements on the comments of other popular videos is always a good idea, of course you might get a lot of hate for that...But you could also ask friends and family to watch your videos, then they might like it and share with their friends and family! Also, posting on tumblr, instagram, and any other social media network is great too. What's your channel, maybe I could help you out by watching some videos and spreading it along (if that's not too creepy, haha xD)?

well first off there already seems to be a few people who use the name and idea noob for gaming videos. im not sure if the ones i found looking this up were you, but its definitely a taken idea. you need to be a little more unique. especially if your trying to get into the youtube gaming community. its pretty vast, and having something unique to you like a character you play, a crazy unique name, a unique theme to your videos, or anything else that makes you stand out will help a lot. a lot of the really successful people on youtube who make it big have an education about film as well as their chosen video topic. you may want to do some research and study a bit about the things that make net videos successful. you may also want to start criticizing your own work a bit. have people you know give you some tips about what you need to do less, and what you seem to be best at, and make any necessary changes to make yourself stand out.

Anything else that makes you stand out will help a lot.

Hey

Well I guess you are looking for some popularity on YouTube.
I have a couple of tips if you want to read and benefit so you can get more YouTube Views.

1- Make a good quality video, and if possible set it to high definition. Also make it widescreen. People prefer to watch videos in HD and fully wide including me.
2- Choose popular topics and review your videos before releasing them to the public.
3- Try to use content targeted keywords and create eye-catching thumbnails. I don't know why people look at thumbnails before watching the video but I guess the saying "Don't judge a book by it's cover" goes wrong here.
4- Share it with your friends and family, spread it on social networking websites like facebook, twitter etc.
5- Post it on your blog, or forums like digitalpoint etc. And you can even post it on digg, stumbleupon etc.
6- Make the videos short and to the point so you get good rating.
7- Interact with the commenters and subscribers.
8- Add in RELATED video responses to videos which are already popular. 9- Ask people to subscribe saying you'll upload new content regularly, use the call to action strategy and you could ask for it at the end of the video.
10- Add in a link at the end which would take your user to your other videos.
11- Be patient, it takes time to get noticed. However if you are not really patient, there are some paid methods out there aswell.

Check out http://www.YouTube-Views.Net
Those are two sites I would recommend since I used their services and I trust them.. I don't know how they do it but whatever method they use seems to have worked for me.
I have gotten about 50K Views on almost all of my videos and average views is 220K , plus my subscribers list is about 11000 so yeah you could say I'm a big youtuber who's giving you these tips. So yeah trust me

If your video is stuck on 301 views, don't worry it's just a new video and YouTube wants to verify the views count to see if it's real views or not. It'll go away as soon as you get more views.
Ask yourself this question, why do you want so many views? To get more popular, to earn money, to rank higher in search engines, do get more subscribers and the list goes on. So work hard for it or trust an expert with the job.
You can even earn money from YouTube once you get popular. Like Google Adsense or YouTube partnership. So do try that you are able to benefit from that extra revenue

I also know of a software you might want to use. It's automated YouTube Marketing, so yeah it's pretty cool!

Hey

It's tough to get youtube views but main thing is ranking in the youtube search or showing up in YouTube first page because of a lot of popularity..
That's possible if your video is already very popular..

I would say you could use some help to promote your YouTube Videos.
Try http://www.ViewsGuru.com
They'll help you get a boost for your video..
I have used them and got a big package so my video shows on YouTube first page in certain categories..
Now I get all the views naturally through the first page of YouTube or through the YouTube search..
