You probably just posted on all of your social media channels, sat back, and waited for views to come in. The problem was, the views never came. If they did, you wouldn\u2019t be reading this post, right? Is your content the problem? Do you need to pour more money into your production? Should you look for a different job? No, you just didn\u2019t put enough effort into optimizing and market your <i>Youtube video<\/i>. Today, we\u2019re going to take a look at the 4 biggest reasons why <strong>YouTube<\/strong> content has no views. Let\u2019s start with\u2026<\/p>\n<h3>You\u2019ve Not Been Tagging Videos Properly<\/h3>\n<p>Do you simply title your <i>Youtube video<\/i> and move on? Why bother with writing a video description when YouTube can do this for you, right? By doing this, you\u2019re missing a huge opportunity to insert a good number of keywords in your content and help others find it more easily. Here are a few things you should do to tag your videos the right way:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make use of a tool like Ahrefs to do <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nickmetrics.com\/blog\/2020\/07\/24\/keyword-research-strategies\/\">keyword research<\/a> for YouTube specifically<\/li>\n<li>Use specific keywords as first tags as YouTube puts more weight on them<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t forget to set up default video tags so you can remain consistent<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you\u2019re creating explainer videos, don\u2019t be afraid to include generic terms such as \u201ctutorial\u201d and \u201chow-to\u201d in your tags.<\/p>\n<h3>Your Content Is Reaching The Wrong Audience<\/h3>\n<p>Who\u2019s the right audience for your content? Teenagers? The elderly? Soccer moms? Whoever your ideal consumer may be, are you sure that you\u2019re delivering content to them? You need to use the same <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nickmetrics.com\/blog\/2019\/02\/11\/popular-footballers-social-media\/\">social media<\/a> networks as your target audience. For young users, you can try using more \u201ctrendy\u201d social networks like TikTok. On the other hand, if you\u2019re going after an older audience, you can use a network like Facebook, which has a much older user base. You can always go for a network like Instagram that has a diverse user base.<\/p>\n<h3>Videos That Lack Social Share Optimization<\/h3>\n<p>While this may sound strange to ask, are your videos easy to share? If you want them to have a decent number of views \u2013 and especially if you want to create viral videos \u2013 you need people to share them. That\u2019s why you need to make them as easy to share across social networks as possible. You can do this by creating customized social share buttons and have them appear at the top of your videos. This will encourage people to click on the share button while they\u2019re watching the video and basically tell their friends about it. Consider adding CTA buttons to create an incentive for sharing.<\/p>\n<h3>The Format You\u2019re Using Isn\u2019t Great for Promotion<\/h3>\n<p>Have you used paid advertising to no avail? When using YouTube paid ads, you need to understand the kind of placements you\u2019re using. Meaning, your video needs to play to the right people at the right time. The ads need to play in front of videos that appeal to the same audience as you. If they play in front of a random video, they\u2019ll just feel intrusive and create a negative feeling among the viewers.<\/p>\n<h3>Final Thoughts: Start Optimizing Your YouTube Content!<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re guilty of one or all four of these things \u2013 don\u2019t worry \u2013 it\u2019s never too late to start optimizing your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nickmetrics.com\/blog\/2020\/06\/06\/video-contents-that-are-shareable-and-linkable\/\">video content<\/a>. There are many things you can do to fix the situation and give your videos a bigger chance to resonate with a potential audience. The most important thing is \u2013 your audience needs to be able to find your content. If they can\u2019t, you\u2019ll never get the views and engagement you desire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you ever produced any YouTube videos \u2013 no matter how much or little time and effort you put in them \u2013 you\u2019ve surely shared them across social media.
