Mistakes People Make When Trying to Make Money with YouTube

It can be really easy to make money with YouTube if you know what you are doing. YouTube connects highly targeted people to your website, sign up for your email list, and build a huge amount of trust quickly. However, if you don’t do it right, you may find yourself frustrated by the lack of results. In this article, I will discuss with you the most common mistakes people make when trying to make money with YouTube.

1. Their channel has no topic

Often when I rate a YouTube channel, I don’t see any real structure of the videos. There is only a bunch of random videos about all sorts of things. The YouTube channel is the hub. Many people visit YouTube channels to get more information about the author. If there is no structure, people will be confused. Keep your videos about your family, funny cat videos, and your camping trip on a different channel, and make it easy to understand the topic of your channel and videos.

2. Videos are not optimized

A YouTube video is a web page. Let me say it again. A YouTube video is a web page. So it follows all the same rules as a web page when it comes to SEO. Titles, tags, and descriptions are all important. Make your videos unique, not your titles. If you want to be found you should focus on keyword-rich titles. Use high-quality keywords in the tags, and make sure the description contains good content that explains the video.

3. No full URL

When you use YouTube to drive traffic to your site, you must have the full URL in your description. must be first Something in your description as well. and not only http://www. It must be full http://www.yoursite.com. Not only is it good for your audience to get to your site, but it also works wonders for your SEO. It’s a link pointing to your site from a very popular site.

4. No watermark

This is often overlooked. Having a hidden image in your video of your brand logo, or just your website URL works great. Without fail, 50% of the traffic I see when I do YouTube marketing only is direct traffic. I know it’s because they saw my URL watermark and typed it into the address bar.

5. No call to action

This is a newbie mistake, but it happens all the time. Nothing says, click the link below for more information, visit my website, or even comment on this video and let me know your thoughts. It is very important to have a specific call to action in your video otherwise no one will take any action. You need to lead people gently and tell them exactly what to do.

By addressing these common errors, you will see more and more traffic to your site as you create more videos. to remember. YouTube is owned by Google. They follow all SEO rules as a typical web page. Use this to your advantage and you will see a huge change in traffic to your site.
