Instead of covering broad topics, this channel mainly focuses on nail polish and nail art.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nail Polish art has recently become a really popular trend and many womens follow this channel. This channel only started as a hobby but the high quality video and relatable contents has earned nearly 4 million subscribers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Create a Searchable Video Title<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First, let\u2019s understand what the video title is, It is a piece of short and clear information about your video so that YouTube can understand better about your content and show it for the relevant queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter how good your content is? People will not be able to find it until you give it a searchable title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can ask why optimizing your title is important, the answer is when it comes to understanding text-based content search engines are quite efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But they can\u2019t process or understand the video content. For that, they need help from titles, descriptions to understand what videos are about and to rank them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is an example of a great video title which has triggered people to click on it. Because numbers don&#8217;t lie 428k views are enough to justify the effectiveness of this title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-layzr=\"https:\/\/www.incrementors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/youtube-title.png\" alt=\"youtube title\" class=\"wp-image-4412\" style=\"width:1342px\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For finding keywords for your title you can use a free tool like Google\u2019s Ads keyword planner tool or Wordtracker, they help you to identify what people are searching for around the keyword niche that your video occupies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if your video is about Dwayne Johnson giving workout advice, add keywords like \u201cworkout tips\u201d or \u201cweight lifting advice\u201d. Most keyword tools, including the Google Ads tool, will suggest synonyms with monthly search volumes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-layzr=\"https:\/\/www.incrementors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/workout-tips-dwayne-johnson.png\" alt=\"youtube results for workout tips\" class=\"wp-image-4411\" style=\"width:1343px\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For further optimization, you can add<strong> <\/strong>a<strong> highly searched title <\/strong>with low competition. Many searches for videos include the word \u201cvideo\u201d Including the word in the title of the YouTube video increases your view page\u2019s relevancy when a searcher\u2019s query contains the word \u201cvideo.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, you need to come up with a unique, brief, and descriptive title to stand out from the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Write a Compelling Channel Description<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>YouTube marketing starts with a great channel description. A YouTube channel description is the text which tells about your channel. It helps viewers to find your content and decide whether to watch it or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, be alert while writing your channel description.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here are the few suggestions to write an effective channel description<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Use keywords<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use the keywords that describe your content well. This will maximize your search traffic, include the keywords in the description, and in the title of the video as well this increases the chance of your search optimization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Repeat your keywords<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Repetition of keywords lets YouTube know that the particular term is relevant to your video or channel. Use your keywords two to three times for better results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Related:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.incrementors.com\/blog\/how-to-find-the-right-keywords-for-your-business\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\">How to find the right keywords for your business?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tell your viewers what your channel is about<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t confuse your viewers, tell them exactly about your content. Misrepresenting your video will distract your viewers. This will damage your search rankings\u2014as well as your reputation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Write in simple language<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Know your audience, use language that your viewers will understand and relate to.

Mention your top keywords in the first two to three sentences of your description for the best results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is because YouTube&#8217;s algorithm prioritizes the beginning of your description. Getting the first sentences right is key for your SEO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Add links to relevant playlists<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the viewer stays long on your channel it means he likes your content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use this opportunity to promote your brand.

For example, you can use the watermark of the subscribe button and ask viewers to click on that to subscribe to your channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second is, whenever possible, include an auditory request to your viewers by saying &#8220;thanks for watching you can subscribe to my channel for future updates&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also ask your friends and family to subscribe to your channel, it\u2019ll bring you closer to getting your first 100 YouTube subscribers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Join Online Communities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you intend to get more subscribers, be a part of online communities and groups.
