重点摘要

1. 利用YouTube算法实现大幅增长

YouTube会先将你新发布的视频推送给部分订阅者,通常是那些观看过与你新内容类似视频的订阅者。

了解算法。 YouTube的算法旨在推广能够保持观众参与的内容。它会首先将你的视频展示给一部分观看过类似内容的订阅者。如果他们的参与度高,算法会扩大视频的覆盖范围。因此,在你的领域内保持一致性和高质量内容至关重要。

优化观看时间。 算法非常偏爱那些能让观众长时间观看的视频。专注于制作既有趣又有价值的内容。使用预告即将讨论的要点、提问和保持动态演示等技巧来吸引观众。

鼓励互动。 评论、点赞和分享是算法的重要信号。积极邀请观众与内容互动。及时回复评论,培养社区感,增加重复互动的可能性。

2. 通过战略性视频结构创建引人入胜的内容

视频结构实际上是你在所有视频中都要融入的两个理念。

立即吸引观众。 在前15-45秒内用强有力的“钩子”抓住注意力并承诺价值。使用H.O.T.公式:

  • 钩子:一个引人入胜的陈述或问题
  • 结果:观众将学到或获得什么
  • 证明:你的可信度或成果的证明

保持全程参与。 结构化你的内容以保持观众的兴趣:

  • 使用图形、B-roll或语调变化等模式中断
  • 预告即将讨论的要点以制造期待
  • 包含故事元素使信息更具亲和力
  • 使用视觉辅助、图表或演示来说明关键点

以强有力的行动号召结束。 明确告诉观众接下来该做什么,无论是订阅、观看另一个视频还是与内容互动。

3. 优化元数据以提高可发现性和参与度

元数据只是描述其他数据的数据。在这种情况下,元数据是描述你的视频内容的信息。

研究并使用战略性关键词。 使用TubeBuddy或Keywords Everywhere等工具找到搜索量大但竞争较小的相关关键词。将这些关键词融入标题、描述和标签中。

制作引人注目的标题和缩略图。 这些是搜索结果和推荐视频中的“第一印象”:

  • 在标题中使用数字、问题或引人入胜的陈述
  • 将标题控制在60个字符以内以确保完全可见
  • 创建自定义缩略图,使用清晰、高对比度的文字和生动的图像
  • A/B测试不同的缩略图样式,看看哪种最适合你的观众

撰写详细的、关键词丰富的描述。 用前2-3句话总结你的视频并包含主要关键词。然后提供更详细的概述、时间戳和相关链接。目标是至少200字,以便YouTube充分了解你的内容。

4. 在YouTube上建立强大的品牌和社区

无论是在YouTube上还是在任何业务中建立品牌,都需要大量的思考和努力,但不能忽视。

发展独特的品牌形象。 在你的频道上创建一致的外观和感觉:

  • 使用可识别的频道图标和横幅
  • 为你的视频开发一个标志性的开场或结尾
  • 保持一致的色彩方案和视觉风格
  • 打造独特的个性或展示风格,使你与众不同

培养社区参与。 积极努力在你的频道周围建立忠实的社区:

  • 定期且认真地回复评论
  • 使用社区标签发布更新、投票和幕后内容
  • 创建鼓励讨论和互动的内容
  • 开发频道特定的语言或内部笑话,营造归属感

保持真实和亲和力。 分享个人故事、挑战和成长,帮助观众与你建立更深层次的联系。这会建立信任和忠诚,将普通观众转变为忠实订阅者。

5. 多元化收入来源,不仅仅依赖广告收入

如果你想在YouTube上赚钱,你需要一个通过多种来源赚钱的策略!

探索赞助和品牌合作。 随着你的频道增长,积极寻找与内容和观众匹配的赞助:

  • 创建展示你频道统计数据和观众人口统计的媒体包
  • 向你领域内的品牌提出合作建议
  • 考虑长期合作以获得稳定收入

利用联盟营销。 推广你真正使用和相信的产品或服务:

  • 在视频描述和置顶评论中包含联盟链接
  • 创建诚实的评测视频或“最佳”列表,推荐联盟产品
  • 清楚地披露联盟关系,以保持观众的信任

开发自己的产品或服务。 为观众创造额外价值,同时产生收入:

  • 与你领域相关的在线课程或研讨会
  • 电子书或模板等数字产品
  • 带有你品牌或口号的商品
  • 咨询或辅导服务

6. 利用设备和编辑技巧提升专业质量

将YouTube作为一项业务意味着你需要合适的设备并知道如何使用它们。

投资基本设备。 虽然你可以只用智能手机开始,但升级设备可以显著提高质量:

  • 一台不错的单反或无反相机以获得清晰的视频
  • 外置麦克风以获得清晰的音频(对观众保留至关重要)
  • 基本的照明设备以增强视觉吸引力
  • 编辑软件以制作精美的最终产品

掌握基本的编辑技巧。 学习制作引人入胜、专业外观的视频:

  • 使用跳剪保持动态节奏
  • 添加文字覆盖和图形以强调关键点
  • 结合B-roll镜头以说明概念
  • 对你的镜头进行色彩校正,以获得一致、精美的外观
  • 谨慎且有目的地使用过渡效果

不断提高你的技能。 定期寻找教程并练习新技巧,以随着时间的推移提高你的制作质量。

7. 通过博客和社交媒体整合扩大影响力

将你的频道扩展到YouTube之外是超越普通创作者并真正增长频道的最佳方式之一。

开设配套博客。 使用你的博客来:

  • 嵌入YouTube视频以增加观看次数和观看时间
  • 创建与视频互补的深入书面内容
  • 通过Google搜索提高SEO和可发现性
  • 建立电子邮件列表,以便与观众直接沟通

战略性地利用社交媒体。 不仅仅是分享链接——创建平台特定的内容:

  • 在Instagram Stories上分享幕后内容
  • 使用Twitter提供快速提示并与社区互动
  • 为Facebook创建本地视频内容以增加覆盖面
  • 使用Pinterest创建长期驱动流量的常青内容

跨平台交叉推广。 鼓励你在每个平台上的观众在其他平台上与你联系,创建一个支持你YouTube增长的整体在线形象。

8. 通过直播与观众建立更深的联系

在YouTube上直播视频对许多创作者来说可能是一个可怕的想法,甚至比最初开始频道的想法更可怕。

克服对实时互动的恐惧。 虽然令人畏惧,但直播提供了独特的好处:

  • 实时互动建立了与观众更强的联系
  • 自发性和真实性对观众来说可能是耳目一新的
  • 提供了一种额外的内容形式,制作时间较少

有效地计划你的直播。 虽然更自发,但仍需有结构:

  • 选择鼓励实时参与的主题(问答、教程等)
  • 提前宣传你的直播以最大化出席率
  • 有一个松散的大纲以保持直播的重点,但要灵活

利用直播功能。 使用YouTube的直播工具来增强互动:

  • Super Chat用于货币化和突出显示观众消息
  • 投票以实时收集反馈并鼓励参与
  • 置顶评论以突出重要信息或行动号召
