We've hit a wall. We don't really know what we're good at, or what people enjoy, or anything. I've tried reaching out so many times but I never get a reply, and so I really just need a pointer, what are we good at? Please let me know on this thread, it's really important that we know. Everything we've done is fun, and we enjoy it all equally, so the next step is to know what the audience want to see, and once we know that we can really work on that and become a better channel.

All the best - Will
 
Hmmm.... content is "ok". SEO needs work. one example. "The Hole - Vidcast"

No one is searching for the words in that title looking for that video. YouTube doesn't know what to relate it too so it will never show up in suggested.

The Tags

  • will
  • jowett
  • kieran
  • jamie
  • tom
  • vidcast
  • max
  • kaitlen
  • chloe
  • euan
  • funny
  • horse
  • mask
  • challenges
  • sketches
  • games

The only ones that YouTube will know what to do with our mask, challenges, sketches, and games. Problem is they are very broad and with the exception of "sketches" are probably irrelevant.

This is actually a really hard video to SEO. I think most sketch comedy is.

Here's what I would have called it. "Comedy Sketch - The Hole"

Then I would have tagged it with things like.

Comedy Sketch
Comedy Troup
Sketch Comedy Shows
The Hole
Vidcast
Funny Videos by teens
by teens for teens
Teenagers
Funny Comedy Video

Etc.

When it comes to tags and titles think about what someone is wanting to find and what's your telling YouTube your video is about.

For example, cooking with chef whatever his name is. Look at your tags. If someone searching for apple (food) apple (computer), iphone, macbook, upgrade, etc. Are they really looking for your video? No of course not. They're gonna be like wtf is this and click back right away killing your average view time. Just because something is in a video and is a popular search term doesn't mean you should be tagging it with it.

Much more relevant tags would have been. "Destroying a macbook." Breaking a macbook, Sketch comedy, etc. Tags are your friends but be careful because if you're misleading (even though the tag is actually in the video) it leads to low average view time if youtube puts it in search for that tag which leads to YouTube not putting it in search.
 
Okay, thank you, I'll get straight on it. I really appreciate the assistance.[DOUBLEPOST=1444757343,1444757015][/DOUBLEPOST]Actually, in regards to what you said about the hole, by the looks of it, they were all the default ones I had, I must have forgot to add any, and so thank you for pointing out about that video, I was confused as to why it wasn't particularly doing so well compared to my other videos.[DOUBLEPOST=1444841247][/DOUBLEPOST]

In regards to my actual content though, which would you say is the strongest? I need to know what we're good at and what we should stop doing, thanks
