Want to know:

Then:

Family friendly ORIGINAL Content will help. Keep reading . . .

2. Make your Videos SEARCHABLE

(Read tip #3 on how to get the right words for this step.) We use Search Optimization Rules to help get your video content indexed. This includes the same steps we would use to optimize a mainstream youtube channel content. 

If you want to know:

How do I get more views on Youtube? How do I unlock more watch time?

Then:

Video Engagement Tips and making your video Thumbnails Attractive will be something people want to click on will help.

This means four (4) steps of your video need to be search optimized: 

1. Great Thumbnails

2. Friendly, but, Keyword Rich Titles

3. A Great Description

4. and Video Meta Tags (hint, it’s all this ☝︎stuff)

• THUMBNAILS: Try including colors and faces of your most recognizable characters in thumbnails. You also can add visual indicators for topic, video length, target age, etc. Some video publishers feature their logo or the same still shot in every thumb nail, don’t do this. A unique thumbnail image is always the best choice. Alternative to an image, is actually writing out the title of your video as the still frame.

Don’t take my word for it. We believe in decision with data. In a recent youtube survey, “90% of the best performing youtube videos have custom thumbnails.”

Custom work does not have to be expensive. It means that you do not pick form the options youtube gives you. Instead we use our youtube insights to make a relevant thumbnail - that relates to your video - so you get more views on your video.

• TITLES: Concise titles (<65 characters) can be easier to read in the app. Include some of your keywords from your research in the title.

• DESCRIPTIONS: use keywords in your description. This includes restating the title in the description. YouTube recommends you try adding song lyrics or video transcripts in descriptions, this will also help capture a common search query - the song in your video..

• AND TAGS: this should include your categories, and some of the keywords from your research, and the title of your video.

(*Don’t know how to do keywords research, we offer a consultation package to teach you how)

• BONUS TIP: Make sure your thumbnails, titles, descriptions, and tags always accurately represent your content and adhere to our guidelines. DO NOT USE Clickbait, catchy fake headlines, or add metadata that is not representative of the content in the video… ultimately this would be reported as not family-friendly and get you banned from youtube kids.

3. YouTube and Youtube Kids search words and phrases

YouTube and YouTUbe Kids wants to help users find the most relevant content. Since there software wants to present the most relevant and popular videos and channels in search** results. For you tube kids consider how kids might pronounce words or phrases, the way kids talk and what they talk about is the “keywords” you want to build into your titles, descriptions, and tags.

If you want to know:

Then:

Making sure your video BOTH has keywords that kids search and you SAY those things in your video will help.

** Remember when using these guidelines for search techniques that are the way kids will phrase requests in voice search - not adults.
