enough to “catch it on tape”. They are seldom planned.. but sometimes they are.
I’m betting if you were around online in 2010, you would have seen the Mentos and Diet coke experiment videos. Catching ontop a craze like this and making a video about it can end up with a lot of views!
While we can’t always be lucky enough to have our cameras ready when a girl fight breaks out or when a horse swings and throws a ball at you, you can make your videos clever and entertaining.
If you really want your video to go viral, you can make it happen, it just needs some prior thought and planning.
Incorporate these things in your video and you have a better chance of it going viral.
 Funny e.g. parody
 Stupid
 Rare talent
 Extreme
 Controversial
 Helpful e.g. “How to” tutorial
 Professional e.g. HD, high quality, professional production
 Original
 Sexy (it’s true.. sex sells)
These are the common elements you’ll find in most viral videos. I’m not saying to use all these in the same video, but if you can make it funny and a bit controversial.. maybe even a little sexy, then you stand a good chance of people going crazy over it and reaching a bigger crowd.

                                             GET SUBSCRIBERS TO YOUR CHANNEL
If it’s numbers you’re after, then getting subscribers is the sure-fire way to guarantee you get views to your videos.
The main benefit being that whenever you upload a new video, all of your subscribers will see your new video’s thumbnail when they log in next time to Youtube.
If you have 10,000 subscribers, then straight away you almost have a guaranteed 10,000 views in the bag without doing anything.
But the hard part is that we all start with ZERO subscribers and build up.
So how do you get subscribers?
First of all it’s pretty hard to get subscribers if you don’t have many videos. Usually, people will subscriber after they check out a few of your videos and decide “hey, this guy makes cool videos.. I want to watch more!”
The more videos you have uploaded and live on your channel the better.
Keep your videos all related to one topic. Consistency is key.
If you have videos about all types of things, like scenes of a basketball game you’re in or a video of a family BBQ, it’s not going to get people to like your channel.
That’s why there is the sports channel, the movie channel, news, documentaries, MTV all on separate channels on normal TV. There is a reason why those corporate TV stations don’t mix genres.
And again with the “entertainment value” factor, your videos need to be entertaining or you just won’t be able to keep your viewer watching - or even think about subscribing.
The best way though to get subscribers, even if your video is just average, and that is to ask viewers to subscribe.
Just like asking for your viewers to LIKE your video or comment, you can ask them to subscribe. A few of the more popular Youtubers use a Jingle in their videos that are catchy and get people to subscribe. It’s easy to think up a little jingle or a cool catch phrase to add at the end of every video you make.
If you’re not real creative when it comes to jingles or catch phrases, a simple request to “subscribe” is effective. Remember, if you don’t ask, you may never get any subscribers and there is no harm in asking!
Unfortunately, getting subscribers can be a bit challenging. If you want to take the easy way out and get subscribers and likes all without lifting a finger, then you should check out and try the automatic TubeToolbox software for free.
                                      USE LINKS TO YOUR OTHER VIDEOS IN ANNOTATIONS
This is another trick that big time Youtubers do to really ramp up their video views.
They use Annotations to link to their others videos. Sometimes, they link to several videos from one video.
You can use them too. They are simple to do. Just create an annotation after your upload and your video goes live. Then you can go back and “edit” your video and insert your link(s) to your other video(s) by adding them in annotations.
You can add annotations to show all the way through your video, at the end or at any time and for any length of time. It’s up to you when you want to use them.
If you have ever followed a Youtuber’s videos that uses annotations to link up all their videos, you would have found yourself caught in a “web” of their videos and be on the 10th video in a row from them without you even noticing.
So it really does work.
                                     POST YOUR VIDEO TO YOUR BLOG OR WEBSITE
If you have a blog or website that gets lots of visitors, you can easily boost your views by placing your video on there.
If you don’t have a website yet, why not?
There are plenty of places to create free websites online such as http://blogger.com and http://weebly.com
There are many benefits of having your own website, especially if you own a business or want to gain a following online.
If you want to get a website of your own up and running online that is not hosted on another website like the ones I mentioned above, you can do that too but there are some costs involved.
For instance, you’ll need to register a domain name and get website hosting (average cost of around $60/yr).
It can be a little daunting to put together a website from scratch if you’re a beginner to websites, but luckily there is plenty of information on the web on how to do it all such the Newbie Start Up Guide ebook which makes things easy for you.
Once you’ve got your website up and running, it’s easy to post your video.
Just find your Embed code and do a quick copy and paste, publish your page and it’s live!
Here’s a cool tip: If you have some social site share buttons like http://sharethis.com on your web page, then people can share it right there without leaving your web page.
