Identify keywords that already have video results displayed on Google&#8217;s search pages. This way, your video can be featured on the first page alongside other videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before finalising a video keyword, ensure it has a substantial search volume, ideally ranging from 100 to 1,000 searches per month on Google. This ensures that your efforts to rank in Google will be worthwhile.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/topdeal.app.link\/X9PS3jMXzBb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/earnkaro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-696x348.jpg 696w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-1068x534.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-840x420.jpg 840w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Optimise your YouTube Video<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlocking the true SEO potential of your video is easier than you think! Follow these essential steps to ensure your video stands out in the vast YouTube landscape:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>SAY Your Target Keyword<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Engage with your audience and let YouTube &#8220;hear&#8221; your target keyword by mentioning it in your video. When you verbally include the keyword, it helps YouTube understand the video&#8217;s content and relevance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Video Title<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Craft a captivating title that spans at least 5 words. This allows you to include your full keyword naturally without resorting to keyword stuffing. For an extra boost, consider placing your keyword at the beginning of the title to enhance video SEO. Look at this example below<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"791\" src=\"https:\/\/asset20.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/video-title-1-1024x791.jpg\" alt=\"video title\" class=\"wp-image-22440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/video-title-1-1024x791.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/video-title-1-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/video-title-1-768x593.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/video-title-1-1536x1187.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/video-title-1-696x538.jpg 696w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/video-title-1-1068x825.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/video-title-1-544x420.jpg 544w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/video-title-1.jpg 1650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Description<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Your video&#8217;s description holds immense importance.

Include a few relevant keywords to aid YouTube and Google in understanding the video&#8217;s content better. Pro Tip: Using targeted tags helps you rank for your target keyword and positions your video as a related suggestion in YouTube&#8217;s sidebar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feel free to use tags that your competitors employ. Embrace this tried-and-tested YouTube marketing best practice that has shown its effectiveness over the years. Matching your video&#8217;s tags to what viewers are watching increases the likelihood of appearing in the coveted Suggested Video section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Create Scripts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An engaging, well-crafted script can enhance your authenticity and spontaneity while captivating your viewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A thoughtfully written script is your guiding compass, preventing you from veering off track and losing your audience&#8217;s interest. It helps you refine your language, eliminating those pesky &#8220;ums,&#8221; &#8220;ahs,&#8221; and moments of confusion. Instead, you&#8217;ll grasp your viewers&#8217; attention with precision and confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, using a script can significantly speed up your video creation process, freeing you up to focus on producing more incredible content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of your script as a powerful tool that opens the door to success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Craft a short, snappy introduction that immediately hooks your viewers, telling them why they should stick around. Consider it a pledge you make to your audience \u2013 a promise you will fulfil by the video&#8217;s end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Make Longer Videos<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Contrary to popular belief, longer videos are the ones that thrive on YouTube. Next time you search for any keyword or phrase, observe that the top-ranking videos are lengthy. Look at this example below of Minecraft&#8217;s top-ranked videos. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"791\" src=\"https:\/\/asset20.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/longer-videos-1024x791.jpg\" alt=\"longer videos\" class=\"wp-image-22434\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/longer-videos-1024x791.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/longer-videos-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/longer-videos-768x593.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/longer-videos-1536x1187.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/longer-videos-696x538.jpg 696w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/longer-videos-1068x825.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/longer-videos-544x420.jpg 544w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/longer-videos.jpg 1650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The reason behind this phenomenon is intriguing: YouTube uses total view duration as a significant ranking factor. It makes perfect sense if you think about it. The longer viewers stay engaged, the more likely they are to watch more videos, including advertisements. This benefits YouTube commercially, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the key to higher rankings is <a href=\"https:\/\/earnkaro.com\/blog\/increase-youtube-audience-retention\/\">creating longer, high-retention videos that hold audiences<\/a>&#8216; attention for extended periods. YouTube favours content that keeps viewers hooked and engaged throughout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, this doesn&#8217;t mean you should artificially stretch your videos. Instead, focus on providing comprehensive answers to questions, ensuring your content is informative yet engaging. Avoid dividing one topic into several parts; aim to cover it fully in a single, captivating video. You can even check out our list of interesting <a href=\"https:\/\/earnkaro.com\/blog\/faceless-youtube-channel-ideas\/\">faceless YouTube content ideas<\/a> mentioned in our recently published blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Engagement with your YouTube Video<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Video Comments<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Engaging with your audience through comments can significantly impact your video&#8217;s success on YouTube. When viewers leave comments, it signals to YouTube that they enjoyed your video or were actively engaged. You may encourage your audience to express their ideas and opinions by encouraging people to leave a remark. Be sure to reply to any comments you get. This interaction fosters community and tells YouTube that your content resonates with your audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Subscribers After Watching a Video<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/earnkaro.com\/blog\/how-to-get-1000-youtube-subscribers\/\">Gaining subscribers<\/a> after someone watches your video is a powerful indicator of your video&#8217;s appeal. It shows that your content left a lasting impression and convinced viewers to join your community. Be bold about asking people to subscribe to your channel at the end of your videos. The more subscribers you have, the stronger the signal to YouTube that your content is top-notch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Social Media Shares<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The power of social media cannot be underestimated. When people share your video on platforms like Twitter and Facebook, it&#8217;s a sign that your content is valuable and share-worthy. After all, no one shares low-quality videos. YouTube recognises this and rewards videos with substantial social media attention with a rankings boost. Encourage your audience to share your videos with their networks and watch your reach expand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6. Create Custom Thumbnails<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the competitive world of YouTube, two elements decide whether a viewer clicks on your video: the title and the eye-catching video thumbnail. Since the human brain processes visual information 60,000 times faster than text, your thumbnail holds immense power!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While YouTube automatically assigns a thumbnail to your video, it&#8217;s often just a random shot from the content. You must<a href=\"https:\/\/earnkaro.com\/blog\/make-thumbnails-for-youtube-video\/\"> craft a unique, attention-grabbing thumbnail<\/a> to truly stand out and entice viewers.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"791\" src=\"https:\/\/asset20.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/thumbnail-1024x791.jpg\" alt=\"youtube video thumbnail\" class=\"wp-image-22435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/thumbnail-1024x791.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/thumbnail-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/thumbnail-768x593.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/thumbnail-1536x1187.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/thumbnail-696x538.jpg 696w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/thumbnail-1068x825.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/thumbnail-544x420.jpg 544w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/thumbnail.jpg 1650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Look at these custom thumbnails by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@junkeyy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Junkeyy<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>When creating your custom thumbnail, adhere to YouTube&#8217;s recommended image specifications: 1280&#215;720 pixels, representing a 16:9 ratio, saved as a .jpg, .gif, .bmp, or .png file, and no larger than 2MB.

This could be anything from a series of tutorials to related vlogs or product reviews.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Create a Themed Playlist:<\/strong> Once you&#8217;ve gathered the selected videos, group them in a playlist based on their shared theme or topic. A well-organized playlist keeps viewers engaged and encourages them to watch multiple videos.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Feature Playlists on Your Channel Page:<\/strong> To make your playlists easily accessible, include them on your channel page. Viewers visiting your channel will find your thoughtfully curated playlists, enticing them to explore and discover more content.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rinse and Repeat:<\/strong> Don&#8217;t stop at just one playlist. Continue to create and organise multiple playlists with different themes, ensuring your channel becomes a treasure trove of captivating content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/topdeal.app.link\/X9PS3jMXzBb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/earnkaro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-696x348.jpg 696w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-1068x534.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner-840x420.jpg 840w, https:\/\/asset7.ckassets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/07\/Ek-Banner.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>8.
