How to get a TON of views on YouTube?

[I hate school]

I'm a movie director on YouTube and a lot of people really like my videos, and I am pretty good at making them for my age of 13. And I think I deserve more views than I get. My channel is cookiemonsterfanatic and I have about 430 subscribers and every video averaging with getting 150-250 views. Please help!!

Posting here may help... or is that what you were looking for??

I have a youtube channel as well but has not been up very long (or I should say have not been posting videos for very long). Couple of things that I would suggest;

- make sure to use tags when posting videos
- send friend requests
- post on similar channels that are popular and ask to check out your channel
- remind your viewers to rate, subscribe etc.
- it also depends on the content... don't use just music as a lot of people do... try and communicate with your viewers, talk to them and build a rapport...

do parodies, ask them what they want to see, and you can go to places and tour them.

To get more views, you need to work a little bit. There are a lot of people on YouTube who are getting popular and also getting a lot of money from YouTube. As I see their videos getting a lot of views, they don’t seem to be special ( or very talented) even gives me a feeling that anybody who is serious about making videos can actually get a lot of views.
You can greatly increase your YouTube views by following basic optimization tips:
1. Title: optimize titles so that they get better search engine results plus get a lot of views on YouTube.
2. Thumbnails: Select a compelling thumbnail that catches eyes.
3. Don't make an Ad(only for commercial purpose): if your video doesn't provide any value it won't be viewed again and again.
4. Be innovative: Innovative videos spread like a virus on social networking sites and easily get on the front page of YouTube. So be creative, be funny.
5 .Optimize tags: Ensure proper tagging to get better position in search results.
6.Social networking: use twitter,facebook,Myspace to promote...
7. Your personal blog: set up a website or a blog. Direct people from videos to blog also vice versa.
8.Use other video sites: use the power of Daily Motion, MetaCafe and other video sites.
9.Never Ever give up: Even if your initial attempts fail, do yourself a favour, don't give up.
