3. Pay attention to YouTube Thumbnails

If you frequent YouTube, you probably wonder about the pictures you see before clicking on a video.

YouTube is the world's biggest video search engine, making adding titles for your videos essential. When crafting your title, keep it short and descriptive and always include the primary keyword. Competitor research can also help you dig up title ideas that are catchy and relevant to your video's content. However, don't reveal too many details, but keep curious enough to learn more by watching the video.

5. Find the best time for posting

Creating content for a corporate YouTube channel requires a content calendar. For YouTube, ensure you post regularly and avoid facing creator burnout. It makes your job easier and helps you avoid any last-minute challenges. Set a consistent and realistic publishing schedule and stick to it. For instance, one video per week or two weeks, depending on your busy schedule. Note that consistency matters more than frequency.

With incentivized sharing, you can grow your channel by hosting a giveaway or product discounts by offering one entry each time somebody shares your video or channel. Incentivizing people to watch and share your content is a great way to have your name with the masses.

8. Add CTA

Nowadays, viewers can interact with YouTube videos through video cards. Video cards allow content creators, like yourself, to add CTAs(Click To Action), such as sharing clickable links to purchase a product, visiting your website, or subscribing to your social media.
