OKay let's just come right into it : #1: Optimize Your Channel

To give your videos the best chance of getting discovered via YouTube search, start by optimizing your channel.

The strength and authority of your channel (the number of channel views, video views, subscribers, etc.) are important signals for YouTube's search rankings. Obviously, if your channel is new, accumulating views and subscribers will take some time. Fortunately, there are some things anyone can do to optimize his or her channel, whether it's brand new or many years old.

Choose a Short, Descriptive Channel Name

Your channel title should briefly tell the world what your channel is about.

Include Relevant Keywords in the Description

The uses as an example of a great description.

This channel description tells viewers exactly what content to expect, and mentions Vice's most relevant keywords: culture, travel and news documentaries.

Fill in Additional Details

Spend some time working on your channel art. Choose an icon that represents your brand (this will be seen all over YouTube, so it's important), upload an attractive cover photo and fill out your profile with as much information as possible.

Link to Your Channel on Your Website

To start building a following for your channel, include a channel link on your website to let your fans know about your YouTube presence. For example, GoPro links to their social channels, including YouTube, at the bottom of every page of their website. They also embed YouTube videos on the website to let visitors know about their channel.

Upload Videos Regularly

Sticking to a schedule not only helps you build an audience, but also signals to YouTube that your channel is active.

#2: Optimize Your Videos

When you're ready to upload a high-quality video you've created, here's what you need to do to optimize it for search.

Include Keywords in the Title, but Keep It Brief

Make sure you're targeting keywords that relate to the content of your video. The goal is to make the best video to answer those keyword queries, not to game the system.

The title should accurately tell people what's in your video so they won't be disappointed if they click the link and the video is about something else. Also keep the title short enough that it doesn't get cut off.

Focus on the First 100 Words of the Description

Only the first one to three sentences show up in YouTube's search results, so make these sentences count. Tell viewers what they'll see when they click your video.

For example, when I search for "social media marketing" on YouTube, this is .

The description here is concise. It includes "social media marketing" and accurately describes the video's content. The video also has a clickable title.

Include Tags

Tags help YouTube learn what your video is about. But don't go overboard; use only as many tags as necessary to accurately describe your video.

Add Annotations and Cards

Annotations are a chance to get more engagement from each viewing of your video. Remind viewers to like your video, ask them to subscribe to your channel and direct them to your other content.

#3: Promote Your Content on Other Social Channels

Since one of YouTube's ranking factors is recommendations from viewers, get the ball rolling and promote your videos yourself. Make it easy for fans to share by putting your videos where they are: on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, your blog or company website, etc.

For example, a simple way to post to Twitter is to auto-publish your videos. To connect your YouTube and Twitter accounts, go to your channel settings. 

Don't Forget, It's All About the Viewer!

While you can optimize your video when you upload it, those tweaks aren't going to help much if your video isn't any good.

Why is that? Because user experience metrics on YouTube are a huge part of the video giant's ranking factors. YouTube's algorithm places a high value on videos that generate a long watch time, and a high number of shares, comments and subscribers.

Creating engaging content is more challenging than simply adding tags or uploading an eye-catching thumbnail. The steps to get there are much less defined.

If you're just starting out, try creating different types of video content. For example, interview important people in your industry, create how-to videos or give your audience a behind-the-scenes look at your company.
