Follow below:

→Search for niche

Finding your niche is one of the most important and difficult task on youtube. It is difficult to find niche as youtube is already filled with so many videos and content creator. Finding a low competition niche is key to a successful youtube channel. If you think that you can create videos in more than one niche then, my friend,you aren’t alone. So many beginners believe this and start creating videos related to more than one niche. But their content never ranks. Nothing is better than selecting and  focusing only on one niche.

→Content niche

Focusing only on your niche when creating videos is one of the most important factor in order to grow your channel. Create videos related to your main niche only. Creating videos in different niches will not lead to good results.


→ Analyze competition

 Analyzing competition is also important to keep your channel ahead of other players and  your videos in recommendations. As there are so many content creators , you’ll find high competition in most of the niches, which makes it difficult to be on top.It’s difficult,not impossible. Analyzing competitor’s content and various activities and making changes accordingly will help you a lot in leaving them behind and gain a place on top and recommendations.

→Unique content 

Be a CHAMPION in a place already filled with so many players.In such a high competition market, creating unique content is a very important factor in growth of your channel and is a must. I’d personally recommend you to create unique content/videos. Doing things differenently from others is the fastest way to a successful youtube channel.


→Genuine content

Create your genuine and authentic content. Never ever copy others content. Copying will not only de-rank your channel but it is also against youtube policies and it may lead to termination of your account. Create your own content. Hard work always pays off.


→Regular videos

Keep posting videos regularly so that your current subscribers/followers don’t leave your channel. Taking long time gaps in posting content will reduce your channel’s ranking and may lead to reduction in followers/subscribers.

→Attractive thumbnail

A thumbnail is the impression to which the user pays most attention before clicking on a video. Making a video’s thumbnail attractive and genuine can help you in attracting a lot of users. This is the first impression by which you can attract so many people to watch your videos.


→Optimising content

Optimising content and managing it neatly helps not only in increasing user retention but also helps in gaining more and new followers/subscribers. Optimising makes your channel and content attractive and beautiful. Optimising includes:

·     Using attractive thumbnail.

·     Using keywords in video’s title.

·     Creating a profile picture.

·     Creating playlists.

·     Optimizing channel’s homepage.

·     Optimising video’s description.
