How can I get more noticed on YouTube as a gaming commentator?
Here is my YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/itszerogs
As you can see I don't have that many subscribers, but what I really want is a viewer base to watch and enjoy my videos. Is there any tips you guys can give me on how to improve or get more noticed? Answers are much appreciated

add tags to all of your videos, a lot of tags. also, you have to put out content that people actually want to watch. Minecraft isnt as popular as it once was, and honestly, your videos are boring. the reason people like watching Seannaners or Captain sparkles do mincraft is because they do do innovative things and provide plenty of humerus laughs along the way. its harder than ever to get noticed on Youtube, manly because everyone thinks they can be the next seannaers. there isnt much you can do other than to make good videos.

Getting your channel/video's viewed is all about content, presentation and networking.

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 video description.
d) A good network of friends and subscribers.
e) Getting 'Likes'.
f) Don't forget to 'Share' your video's and 'Post a Bulletin' to your friends.
g) Video respond with your videos.

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.

Always do a full, and detailed description of your video (this will help when Google 'crawls' for videos). Provide links as needed.

Make friends. Reach out to other similar channels, 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.
On your channel, use the [Post Bulletin] to send your video (with a message) to all your friends.

Post video response to your own video's. Seach for videos similar to your own, and then post your video's as a response.

Channel design and multiple views:
Thought should be given to your channels appearance (back ground, colour scheme, play list's, profile wording, ect). A nicely designed channel, with multiple playlists will encourage your visitors to stay and watch more video's.

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. Be careful of spamming. Some people get very upset.

Hope this helps
