The video website YouTube is great way to promote your creativity in making cool videos or even using them, if you own a business, to get more customers. However if no one sees them whats the point right? Here are some tips to better your YouTube experience.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • A YouTube account
Step1
Do it yourself. You don't need a professional video crew to make a good YouTube video. In fact some of the most downloaded videos are ones created by ordinary people with a digital camera.
Step2
Keep it short. Keep your video to under two and a half minutes. Any longer and it takes to long to load and viewers may lose interest if it takes them too long to get to the point.
Step3
Properly describe what the video is about. YouTube allows you to enter in some text to briefly describe what the video is about. Make sure you description tells potential viewers what they will be watching and why.
Step4
Tell everyone. Now that you have a video, you think it is a good one, tell everyone you know. You have an email list of friends, relatives, neighbors and so on. Send them the link to your YouTube video. Ask them to rate it and if they enjoy it to pass it along to everyone on their email list.
Step5
Social network. Hit all the social network sites. i.e. MySpace, Facebook, Indocquent and so on. Post a link to the YouTube video there. Also hit the social bookmark sites (Furl, Stumble, Digg).
