Social Media 101 – YouTube

Published on Jul 25, 2009   //  Social Media

socialmedia1011YouTube is a different world then twitter. These two social sites have different rules and different ways to behave. Youtube has a similar follow feature like twitter but they break it down in to Friends and Subscribers. Friends are people you can send messages to but is not shown up as a status thing on your profile. Subscribers on the other hand are shown as a badge of how many people subscribe.

Like all social sites fill in your profile, set an avatar and set your background.

Once you have started creating video’s be sure to give them all tags, descriptions and if you have the knowledge make an intro video to your movies.

I have gained over 300 subscribers on YouTube which may not seem like much but that has taken awhile to do.

The key to getting subscribers which I have found is to post often on one topic. Your account should be like a TV channel where you talk about one subject or related subjects. Then comment on others that interest you in a smiliar subject as yours. Rinse, lather and repeat er I mean record,upload and repeat.

What tips and tricks have you found to getting subscribers on YouTube?
