And this means you need to employ some key strategies that will keep your viewers captivated, whilst visiting your channel. Which will lead to more video views, comments, likes and ultimately a new and happy subscriber.

Take a look through the list below. And if any of these points apply to your own Youtube channel, change them as soon as possible. Failure to change these points may be costing you 100's if not 1000's of video views and new subscribers. 15 Ways Not To Get Any New Subscribers (And Potentially Lose Existing Ones) 1. Videos About A Wide Range Of Interests If you want to build a strong subscriber base, you need to ensure that you concentrate on a specific topic. Pick something you are interested in and stick to it. Then upload videos relating to that topic. 2. Videos That Last Between 30-40mins Long Videos that go on for over half an hour, can get a little tedious or boring to watch. If your video content has to be this long, break it down into parts (Part 1... Part 2 etc.) This way the viewer can watch without getting bored. Plus you get a second view when they continue to Part 2 (If your video is interesting of course) 3. Poor Quality Videos There is nothing worse than watching a video that has poor sound, takes 5 mins to get to the actual content, has bad camera work or doesn't portray what the viewer actually searched for. This has to be one of the main reasons people will not watch any of your videos or subscribe. 4. Don't Reply To Any Comments If you are lucky enough to get somebody commenting on your video, make sure you take time to reply to that comment, thanking them for whatever they have said. Answer any questions they may ask or even ask them a question back. They have taken time to comment on your video, so at least have the decency to reply back. 5. Don't Take Comments Personally As you upload more videos, you will get people commenting and the majority of people will make positive comments. But there are people out there who like to make abusive or hurtful comments. Don't take these comments personally, it's just not worth it. The good comments will far out way the bad (That is of course you are uploading good videos with interesting content) 6. Don't React Angrily To Abusive Or Negative Comments If you receive abusive or negative comments, do not lower yourself to their level. Simply thank them for their comment and just ignore it. If you continue to get abusive comments, just report them, to Youtube 7. Don't View Anybody Elses Videos With The Same Interest Or Subscribe If you have an interest in a certain topic, that you have decided to base your own channel on, why not view other peoples channels with the same interest. Not only could you learn more about your interest, you may get them subscribing back to your channel (it works both ways) and watching your videos. 8. Don't Like Or Comment On Anybody Elses Videos With The Same Interest Making comments on other peoples videos with the same interest is going to get you noticed, especially if you comment on a regular basis. And eventually they will spot this and start to visit your channel, to see what you are about. Also make sure you hit the like button on their videos every time you watch one. Again, they will more often than not return the favour. 9. None Relevant Channel Title Or Description Make sure the title of your channel is relevant to your topic of interest. Don't just leave it blank or call it "My Videos", give your channel some meaning, telling your viewers what your channel is all about. 10. Don't Bother With A Channel Logo Branding is important if you want to get noticed. Having a logo adds to your branding and should be used on all your videos, social media accounts etc. Keep your logo simple, memorable and relevant. 11. Don't Explain Anything About Yourself People like to know who they are dealing, they like to build up a picture about the person uploading the videos. If you can't be bothered writing a description about yourself, why should anybody be interested in you ? 12. Empty Video Description Box When you upload your video, people like to have a bit of an idea what your video is about. Plus if there is part of your video that may be really worth watching, add this into the description. If your viewer thinks about watching your video "Walk In Woodland" and reads in the description that you film a fox feeding its young, of course they are going to want to see it, so put it in your description. 13. No Links To Your Blog Or Website On Channel Page If you have a blog or website related to the content of your Youtube channel, place a link in the channel description section. If your viewer can see you are dedicated to this subject, they are more likely to take you seriously and listen (or watch) to what you have to offer. Plus, if you have more videos on your blog or website, they may visit either of these and watch even more of your videos. 14. No Links To Your Blog Or Website In Video Description Same reason as above, but if they miss the link in your channel description, they will see it here in your video description. 15. Don't Upload Videos On A Regular Basis Make sure you upload videos on a regular basis. If you upload a video and people view it, they are very likely to see what else you have uploaded. But if there is nothing there to watch, they will leave, never to return. But if you have more videos, they will view those too. Or they may subscribe with the intention to return a few days later. By which time you may have uploaded even more content.
