YouTube - Optimizing Exposure

Unread post

Here's a tip that I'm sure many of you haven't heard said before. I'd like to share it, so that you can possibly benefit from it yourself.

If you're a writer with a YouTube channel you may have book trailers, and samples of writing, set to video and music. This is a great idea. Now you've heard that you should be active in a community to gain maximum exposure, right? Has anyone really told you where you should be active?

There are many authors out there, and artists, with YouTube channels of their own. Many of the most famous actors, writers, and companies, have their own YouTube channels to advertise their work. You should consider commenting on the videos of famous people, as you never know when potentiality important people will see your comment, and check out your channel.

Remember, they often check out their channels to see what people are commenting, and if your comment is on the front page at the time there's a good chance that they've read it.

That's right Ozzy, Brittany Spears, and other famous people may have read your comments and you wouldn't even know. Someone famous could be thinking about right now.

Comment constructive, spam free, positive, comments on their channels, and videos. You never know when a publisher may check out your channel and see your trailers.

Hope you like this tip, and it helps you in the future.

Haha, I actually got the idea while posting on an Ozzy video lol.....

I'm guessing Ozzy would bite her head off at the end?
