Default bum video cracking youtube

It was interesting to see Marks video about bums go up, and how it was a instant winner, its early days and I believe this will be his youtube trump card..

But if your clever you can have a inpact on youtube without using bums tits and pretty faces...its not easy and it takes time, its not impossible.

The BA technology videos I have done are a break away from my usual style, and its a gamble, comedy is a very tricky medium.

The key is content, and a good mix of weird content o your channel.

Use forums like these to kick start your viewing audience.

Understand subscribers are the key, and a good subscriber is someone who also makes good videos, good subscribers are very tricky to obtain..

In youtube, like real world television there are very few producers, and millions of viewers, but the difference is these viewers are not passive.

Short snappy videos like little pop songs, something which will sit in someones mind, or have them send it on....I call it MTV editing, and its all about the camera move on a subject as well tied into the edit.

And fringe subjects seem to do very well, things which maybe have only a magazine in a shop supporing it, woodworking, shooting, even how to on video, photoshop tricks, computer know how are examples.

Combine this with a sexy girl and the world would be yours..but thats cheating

Using the keywords in youtube is also important to focus on who you want to see the video, and try to have a spread over the different sub categories, I believe comedy is one of the hardest to crack and haave a inpact.

You need a killer video, something from deep within.
