Why no one watches your YouTube videos (must see)
I bet you never thought of this...
While living in Canada is great for the most part
There are a few downsides that I’d rather live without
The first is of course the insane price of homes
The second is the cold weather
Not only does the cold weather keep you locked inside for months
But it also limits one of the commonalities of warmer climate cities
What is that commonality?
People driving exotic cars
Visit Fort Lauderdale, Orlando or Miami
And you’ll see a supercar go by every hour of the day
Causing your head to jerk just to catch a second look
In the same way that car fans love to admire the latest and greatest vehicles
People are also drawn to unique and engaging thumbnails on YouTube
And if you’re not getting a ton of views on YouTube right now you’re probably missing this key element
Take for example two basketball channels
Let’s analyze their video results and how engaging their thumbnails truly are
Channel #1: Swish ARCC
Channel 2: Heat Check
Right away, you’ll notice the difference in video views
The first channel is struggling to reach 5k views per video
While the latter is consistently eclipsing 100,000 views per video
Why?
Topic selection and channel size aside
You can see on channel #2 that they are using much more intriguing thumbnails
There’s drama, funny faces etc.
This is what draws people into a video, getting them to click and watch
So if right now you’re struggling to get views on your videos
Crank up the intrigue factor on your thumbnails…
But what if you’re not in the sports niche
Can you still make intruiging thumbnails?
Of course!
Just look at how intrigue is associated with videos on the foods we eat
TLDR: More intrigue > more views
Give this a go and let me know how it goes!
