How can I become a YouTube star?

Idk what to do. I want to get thousands of views but I cant think of video ideas!

To get comments, you need views.

To get views you need:
a) Good content.
And/or:
b) Good 'tag' words. The more the better (Youtube dose have an upper limit on the number though).
c) A good network of friends and subscribers.
d) Getting 'Likes'.
e) Don't forget to 'Share' your video's and 'Post a Bulletin' to your friends.

So, good content is the hard one. There are no rules, but try to be original, or stick to a theme, or both. Here's an example. Have a look at this:

The trick is to engage your viewer from the start, and keep them watching till the end. Hard to get your video 'Liked', if it's not watched in total.

Tagging your video with as many of the right words is very important. People find your video's with these 'Tags'. Use many tags.

Make freinds. Reach out to other simalar chanels, and [Add Friend]. Offer Sub4Sub to increase your subscribers.

Double check your editing (smooth transitions, clean/even audio, ECT) before uploading. Sloppy editing on your videos, effect your chances of getting 'Likes'. Remember too 'Like' your own video (people in your network will see this, and be only one click away from watching your video).

After uploading:
Use the 'Share' button, to put your video's on FaceBook/Twitter/MySpace/ETC.
Subscribers automaticly get sent your new video. Friends don't. On your channel, use the [Post Bulletin] to send your video to all your friends.

Also:
If you visit random pages and comment. People will see your avatar (one click, and there at your page), and have a link to you. Becareful of spamming. Some people get very upset.

Hope this helps

Hello,

I will share with you some tips in getting as much youtube views as you can

FREE METHODS ------>

1.Share your videos on social networking sites like facebook, twitter etc
2.Use content targeted words and find appropriate tags.
3.Build up a email list and tell them all bout your new video.
4.Place it on your blog/website or tell your friends to put it on theirs.
5.Post it on digg, stumbleupon etc
6.You can post it on forums where there is free review service or post it on sites where you refer other's and get free views.

These might be good for fun but for business purposes, I won't only rely on them..
As they would get you some traffic but they won't make it go viral and won't be sufficient.
You could also choose some paid methods which I have myself tested upon and completely satisfied with.
Those whom I'll mention are pretty reliable and always get back to your queries.

1. http://www.youtubeviews.info/

This is the first site when you search on Google, so it must be good enough to top up on the SERP.
They had recently closed down because of the change in YouTube policies, But I had been satisfied again with the services they provide.
I got a email few days back that they are back on track. Co-incidentally I had to increase youtube views on one of my videos. I had two offers for them. In one I took the standard rate which was quite fine and as always up to my expectations. For the other one I tried the fast rate, though it is a bit pricey but as I had to promote it for my business so it was fine for me. Plus, they also told me that increasing Youtube views is not enough, therefore I also ordered Youtube Subscribers, Comments and Youtube Likes too. And once again the order was finished before the deadline. Moreover, people get banned as they use cheap ways to get more youtube views but they don't hack Youtube views which is why it is safe as my videos have never been banned.
Moreover, they also offer views for other channels like metacafe, dailymotion etc

2-Get this program from http://www.tubetoolbox.com/?Secure=A1302

They have a network of people who view, comment, like etc on your video that could be helpful to promote your video.
Though it does not provide views that fast, but again it will work in the longer run.
Even though, it's a bit costly but I feel it's worth the investment.
Moreover, it also has a free trial so if you like it you can always upgrade

3- Other recommended site of mine would be http://www.viewsguru.com

They also offer you discounts when purchasing in bulk, this'd get it cheap for you compared to others. And they also address your query immediately(at-least they did it for me).
My friend has a promotion agency and I recommended him of their services. He tried it & was totally amazed. Now he uses them mostly to get all he needs and his clients have also been enthralled to their delivery rate.

I hope these will be as satisfying for you as they had been for my friend.

Need any help, let me know..

Regards!
