Why you shouldn't tell anyone about your YouTube channel!

yeah if you are sharing your videos with friends family Facebook social media Instagram you probably are hurting your YouTube channel and you're probably hurting your views I know it seems weird right you're like well why wouldn't I want to drive people there to kind of Kickstart it to kind of get that video going and moving we don't want to do that and I'm gonna explain why and I've got my little handy dandy little my little whiteboard all you Blues Clues people out there you know what I'm talking about you know what to do we need

our handy dandy notbook notebook let me know in the comments you remember Blues Clues my son's 26 uh I had the handy dandy notebook for him you guys know what I mean anyway we're going to break all this down we're going to talk about this right here this is what most people are doing and that's why it's hurting we're going to talk talk about this here and YouTube's new AI engine that is really really powerful and if we allow it to do its job well we can get a lot more views and if we have

this down here I gave you a little clue what that is you might be able to guess what that is but if we have that it'll Skyrocket that all right and recently we've had some videos that have skyrocketed because of that one thing we'll get into all of that all right so let me know in the comments are you right now sharing your videos when you first launch your videos on YouTube let me know in the comments yes or no all right so let's go ahead and let's talk about it so external social media Instagram

Facebook email some of you might have an email list and if you don't you probably should start building an email list cuz it's pretty powerful not for this purpose but it's pretty powerful to be able to have people off of the platform so this way here you have an asset that you've built on the platform but you now have an asset off the platform so emails big but do not send an email to people that are well that are interested you you're tempted don't do it okay I will tell you when is the right time

to do it I'll talk about that here in a little bit with email because it's something that I do and it definitely is uh part of my strategy all right website a lot of people have some website traffic and they want to put their video on there I wouldn't do it right away I'd wait on it all right we want to wait on it we want to wait and I would say we want to wait at least seven days all right before we do any of this okay this over here the YouTube AI right now

YouTube's AI is super powerful it is basically taking your video and it is testing it amongst audiences even if you don't have even if you don't have many subscribers you are going to show up into people's home feeds let me know right now in the comments how did you discover this video maybe you were a subscriber but maybe you weren't maybe you just saw this video pop up in your home feed let me know in the comments on that I'm curious all right so why is this powerful and what do we want to look for

I'll actually pop a couple of screenshots up here of what I like to see when a video is released and what I'm looking at in the analytics like I said I'll pop that up on this screen as I'm talking about it so browse we want the browse to show up because well that means that YouTube is pushing our video all right the suggested yes we want to be suggested on other videos that means that YouTube is trying to push our videos so why wouldn't we want to do this we don't want to break this let

this do its job and I like to give it at least 7 days before I would ever even consider driving any external traffic so that's the big thing but if we don't have this in place this isn't going to work it's not going to work as well and this right here can really blow up your channel but again we're not doing this we're doing this right here this side okay and then we're driving over to the video but we're letting YouTube do the do the heavy lifting all right and when you do that you're able

to get more views and it can really take off the one thing I didn't put in here is uh the search okay now I do like to see search in there but not until it's been out there for like a month and the reason why is because there's so much more reach on the browse and suggested than there is for the howto all right so really really important so let's fill this in the the must have in order to make this thing really blow up TA there you go title yeah you guys probably already knew

that the ones that have been paying attention to the videos that I've been posting that right there the title if you don't tell the algorithm the AI algorithm that is right that's doing all of the heavy liftting if you don't tell it who to Target then you're not going to be able to utilize the AI all right sometimes it's too broad so if you were doing tomato growing you probably want to have tomato growing or tomato Gardener in the title so the AI can find the audiences for you the thing is is once we get

the title right yes we want it to also be compelling so someone that's reading the title will get pulled in all right and you know we've done a lot of titles over the years and that's what we focus mainly on is the title I actually created a little swipe file of 10 titles that I've used over and over again work really well I actually created some templates out of it if you want a copy of that swipe file just put hooks in the comments and I'll send you a copy of that just put hooks in

the comments and I'll send you a copy of that all right and what it does is it gives you not just what the algorithm wants but what people are going to react to one that I done that works really well is breaking news always works well now you can't use breaking news every single time the other thing is is when you have something that is new YouTube is always looking for audiences that want new information and if you attach that to your market like the new fertilizer that grows Tomatoes bigger than ever you probably want

to watch that if you're a tomato grower right so titles tell the algorithm who go and Target who to find who's browsing who's who's going to be suggested your video and then you also want the title to hook the people that are looking for or not even looking that are browsing and it gets them to want to click in to watch the video again that's the title but right here a big lesson no external traffic for at least 7 days and what I generally do is after seven days I will see how the video is

doing if the video is has pretty much already kind of went through its course not saying that it won't ever get picked up again that's when I will send an email and I will let people know about the video because it's already been through well that 7-Day window for the algorithm to go out there and find audiences now if that video is doing fantastic I probably won't send that email until it starts to die down a little bit just so this way here I don't I don't mess with it now I talked about how important

the titles are well I shot a video right here that walks you through those 10 titles that I'm going to give you I'll actually walk you through each and every one of those and show you more examples on how to use them watch that video next and I'll see you there
