  1. 0:00As a small channel, if you putting a lot
  2. 0:02of work, you upload your videos and you
  3. 0:03get less than 500 views on your videos,
  4. 0:06please stop posting and watch this video
  5. 0:09to the end. Look at this video for
  6. 0:11example. This video has gotten over
  7. 0:12350,000
  8. 0:14views and has made over $2,000 for me.
  9. 0:17Now, let's look at the analytics where
  10. 0:19the traffic is coming from. So, if you
  11. 0:21look at the traffic source on this
  12. 0:23video, you see that it's coming from
  13. 0:24YouTube recommendation. So, as a small
  14. 0:27creator, the biggest secret you need
  15. 0:29right now to start getting a lot of
  16. 0:30views on your videos is YouTube
  17. 0:32recommendation. In this video, I want to
  18. 0:34show you two things you need to do to
  19. 0:37get YouTube to start recommending your
  20. 0:38videos because with YouTube
  21. 0:40recommendations, you will get a lot more
  22. 0:42views on your videos than you currently
  23. 0:45get. Look at this video again. You see
  24. 0:47that in the last 48 hours, this video
  25. 0:50has gotten over 5,000 views in just 48
  26. 0:53hours and this is an old video. So, let
  27. 0:56me show you what I did in this video
  28. 0:57that's making this video to get a lot of
  29. 0:59views and even earn a lot of revenue for
  30. 1:02me.
  31. 1:03The first secret I applied on this video
  32. 1:06that helped me get a lot of views on the
  33. 1:07video is in the video itself, the file.
  34. 1:11It will take you a little more work, but
  35. 1:13if you're willing to put in extra 20
  36. 1:16minutes or 30 minutes work in the video,
  37. 1:18you will get more views on it. This
  38. 1:21first hack is one of the biggest secret
  39. 1:24why videos get a lot of recommendations.
  40. 1:26YouTube start pushing the video and that
  41. 1:29is the file optimization, the video
  42. 1:32itself. So, if you want to get more
  43. 1:34views on your videos, you need to
  44. 1:36optimize the file itself even before you
  45. 1:39upload it on YouTube. I'm going to show
  46. 1:41you step-by-step how to optimize it
  47. 1:43whether you're using an iPhone or you're
  48. 1:45using an Android phone. But first, let
  49. 1:48me explain how it works. When you are
  50. 1:50done recording the video, editing it,
  51. 1:53just before you upload it on YouTube,
  52. 1:55you need to optimize the name of the
  53. 1:58video. I'm not talking about the title
  54. 2:00of the video. I'm talking about the file
  55. 2:02itself. If you are able to add a
  56. 2:04relevant keyword to the name of that
  57. 2:07video file, you will double and even
  58. 2:10multiply your chances of getting this
  59. 2:12video recommended or pushed by YouTube
  60. 2:15itself. So, say for example, you would
  61. 2:17edited the video with CapCut. You are
  62. 2:20going to see something like this as the
  63. 2:22name of the file.
  64. 2:24If you're able to add a keyword to this,
  65. 2:26to move the file name from this to this,
  66. 2:30you increase your recommendation. So,
  67. 2:34this is the video file when I was done
  68. 2:36editing it and this is the name of the
  69. 2:38file when I was done with this
  70. 2:40optimization. Now, guess what happened?
  71. 2:43YouTube recognized this one better and
  72. 2:46faster and as a result, it started
  73. 2:48pushing the video. So, like I said, it
  74. 2:50takes extra work to move the file from
  75. 2:53this to this, but if you are able to do
  76. 2:55that, you will get 10 times more views
  77. 2:58on your videos than you normally get.
  78. 3:01So, when you are done editing the video,
  79. 3:03you save it to your phone or your
  80. 3:05computer. You can go on immediately and
  81. 3:08change the name.
  82. 3:09But before you do that, you need to go
  83. 3:11on YouTube and research relevant
  84. 3:13keywords you can actually add to the
  85. 3:15name of that video file. So, if you're
  86. 3:17using an iPhone, it is just easy. When
  87. 3:19the video is done, you can simply go on
  88. 3:21and change the name. But if you're
  89. 3:23working with an Android phone, you will
  90. 3:25have to save this file maybe in your
  91. 3:28Google Drive and from Google Drive, you
  92. 3:31can now go on to change the name like
  93. 3:33this.
  94. 3:34If you work with your computer, when
  95. 3:36you're done editing the video, send this
  96. 3:38video to your laptop and then go to your
  97. 3:40laptop and change the name.
  98. 3:44So, when a file is not optimized,
  99. 3:47algorithm does not understand this and
  100. 3:49even who to recommend the videos to. But
  101. 3:51if you optimize that video, algorithm
  102. 3:54understands exactly who to show this
  103. 3:56video to. So, immediately you upload
  104. 3:58this video, YouTube algorithm picks it
  105. 4:00and start promoting it and start sending
  106. 4:01it to everyone that needs to see this
  107. 4:04video. But for this one that's not
  108. 4:05optimized, it's going to take algorithm
  109. 4:07extra work to discover who it's meant
  110. 4:11for and in some cases, it will end up
  111. 4:14not even pushing it to the right
  112. 4:15audience. And that's exactly what I did
  113. 4:17in this video. As you can see here,
  114. 4:19recommendations are coming simply
  115. 4:22because the file name got optimized.
  116. 4:25Now, the second thing. This one will
  117. 4:28blow your mind. What this particular
  118. 4:30hack does is to help you get more views
  119. 4:32on the videos without anybody clicking
  120. 4:34on the video. So, this one is done in
  121. 4:37the settings of your channel. If you
  122. 4:39turn the settings on, anybody that comes
  123. 4:41on your channel will be watching this
  124. 4:43video without even them clicking on the
  125. 4:45video. So, let me show you example from
  126. 4:48my channel. So, when you open this, you
  127. 4:50can see it. I just opened the channel
  128. 4:52right now and this video is playing.
  129. 4:54What really happened here is a simple
  130. 4:57settings and this has helped me get more
  131. 5:00views on a daily basis on this video
  132. 5:02even without anybody clicking on it. So,
  133. 5:05as a small channel, you need to activate
  134. 5:07it immediately. How do you do that? You
  135. 5:09need to turn on the settings in your
  136. 5:10studio and it's something you can do
  137. 5:12with your smartphone.
  138. 5:13All you need to do is to go to Google
  139. 5:15Chrome and then you are going to type
  140. 5:18YouTube dashboard. You click on it. It's
  141. 5:20going to bring you to this place. Then
  142. 5:22you click on this to continue and then
  143. 5:24it's going to bring you to the desktop
  144. 5:25version of your smartphone. It has to be
  145. 5:28desktop version before it works. Once
  146. 5:30you come over here, the next thing you
  147. 5:32want to do is to go on and click on
  148. 5:34customization. Once you open it, it's
  149. 5:36going to bring you to this place. You
  150. 5:39can see this profile and you can see
  151. 5:41home tab. Go on and click on home tab
  152. 5:43and it's going to bring you to this
  153. 5:45place. A lot of small creators have not
  154. 5:47activated this and it's the reason why a
  155. 5:50lot of them are struggling to get views
  156. 5:53cuz this simple settings helps to
  157. 5:55optimize your channel in a way that
  158. 5:58people who come on your channel will see
  159. 5:59the right videos to watch and it will
  160. 6:01also help YouTube to start recommending
  161. 6:04just the videos you want YouTube to
  162. 6:05recommend for you. And that's exactly
  163. 6:07what I did in this particular case. So,
  164. 6:10what you need to do is to first of all,
  165. 6:12come over here and toggle this button
  166. 6:13on. So, it will show you sections of
  167. 6:16your home tab you need to activate. Now,
  168. 6:18there are a lot of sections here you can
  169. 6:20activate, but the one that really helped
  170. 6:21this video to get a lot of views is this
  171. 6:24one called featured video for returning
  172. 6:26subscribers. So, you are going to
  173. 6:29activate this.
  174. 6:31By activating it, you simply make this
  175. 6:34video to play every time anyone that
  176. 6:36subscribed to your channel comes over
  177. 6:38here. Without watching the video, you
  178. 6:40are getting views on the video just like
  179. 6:42I showed you. So, this is what you're
  180. 6:44going to do. You click on this and
  181. 6:46you're going to see spotlight for
  182. 6:47returning subscribers. You turn it on.
  183. 6:50And once you turn it on, it's going to
  184. 6:52request that you select a video you want
  185. 6:54to use for this section. So, you go on
  186. 6:57and select that video you want to get a
  187. 6:59lot of views on. Make sure it's a video
  188. 7:01that offers value. So, once you select
  189. 7:03it, you activate this settings. So,
  190. 7:06anytime someone who subscribed to your
  191. 7:08channel comes over here without clicking
  192. 7:10on the video, you're getting a lot of
  193. 7:11views. Another thing you can do is also
  194. 7:14to make this video your channel trailer.
  195. 7:17Let's say for example, you want to get a
  196. 7:18lot more views on this
  197. 7:20video. So, after making it your featured
  198. 7:23video, you can also make it your channel
  199. 7:24trailer, which means those that are
  200. 7:26subscribed will see it. They will watch
  201. 7:29it without watching it. Those that are
  202. 7:31not yet subscribed will see it. They
  203. 7:32will still watch it without watching it.
  204. 7:35So, you can choose it as your channel
  205. 7:36trailer and then as your spotlight or
  206. 7:38featured video. The moment you are done
  207. 7:40activating it, make sure you come over
  208. 7:42here and click on this button that says
  209. 7:44save to save this video. Moving forward,
  210. 7:48not only will YouTube start recommending
  211. 7:50this video to a lot of people, but those
  212. 7:52that land on your channel for the first
  213. 7:54time or even returning viewers will
  214. 7:56always see this video and start watching
  215. 7:57it immediately without pushing the click
  216. 8:00button. So, these are two powerful hacks
  217. 8:02I applied on this video that's helping
  218. 8:05the video to get 5,000 views every 48
  219. 8:08hours and it continues to get me a lot
  220. 8:10of views, a lot of subscribers and even
  221. 8:12earn me revenue on a daily basis. Yes,
  222. 8:15it works and I'm sure that if you
  223. 8:17implement it, you're going to get more
  224. 8:19views on the video. One more important
  225. 8:21thing you need to do to make sure that
  226. 8:22this video continues to get views all
  227. 8:24the time is to optimize your channel
  228. 8:27itself using the right keywords in the
  229. 8:30right places. And that's why you need to
  230. 8:32go on and watch this video right now
  231. 8:33because I explain exactly how to
  232. 8:34optimize your channel as a beginner that
  233. 8:37will help YouTube to recommend your
  234. 8:38videos and your channel.
