YouTube Playlists

For those just starting out, I have noticed that one setting has helped get me a few more views. Here's what you need to do:

First off, make sure you organize your videos into Playlists.

Second, in your Playlist settings set the series playlist

1. Go to your channel's main page
2. Click on "Customize Channel"
3. Click the Playlists tab
4. Click on the Name of one of your playlists
5. Click Edit
6. Under the Playlist name and description (be sure to write a description) click the Playlist Settings Button
7. In the popup, check "Set as official series for this Playlist.

What does this do?
This setting tells YouTube that the videos in your playlist go together. So when someone watches one video in the Playlist, the next video will automatically play next and appear in the sidebar as "Up Next". This also increase the chance of more of your videos appearing in the sidebar as YouTube relates them to each other.

This keeps users engage in more of your videos and also increases the chance they will subscribe.

Hope that helps. Cory http://www.youtube.com/c/AktTakes
