I<\/span> have been creating content for the web as long as I can remember. I begun uploading my stuff to Youtube over a decade ago. I\u2019ve had some really great \u201csuccesses\u201d over the years, but mostly I get a very low amount of viewers of my content.<\/em><\/p>\n

If you make a search on Google and type in \u201cSVG animation with Keyshape\u201d <\/strong>my latest tutorials come up second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth place! Of over 14.800 search results<\/em>. Which is awesome. Zero paid searches, all sweet organic results.<\/p>\n

So it got me thinking: \u201cWhat did I do different this time?\u201d.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what I\u00a0did<\/strong><\/h3>\n

General tips<\/strong><\/h4>\n

1. Create something that you think is useful to others.<\/p>\n

2. Keep your tutorial short and entertaining. Humor keeps people watching apparently ?.<\/p>\n

3. Divide it into parts (part 1, part 2 etc).<\/p>\n

4. Upload it to Youtube. For some reason Google likes it (I wonder why ?). Sorry Vimeo but you can\u2019t compete here.<\/p>\n

5. When describing your content in the \u201cDescription\u201d area be very specific.<\/p>\n

6. Be sure to include all of the apps that you have used and links to where people can download them. You are being helpful and at the same time it\u2019s great SEO.<\/p>\n

7. Use relevant tags for your content. I used things like \u201csvg animation\u201d \u201ckeyshape\u201d \u201csublime text\u201d \u201csketch app\u201d etc.<\/p>\n

8. Share your tutorials on relevant forums. I shared these tutorials in two big Sketch Facebook groups and on a couple of Rapidweaver forums.<\/p>\n

9. Be kind be gentle be helpful.<\/em> I can\u2019t emphasis<\/strong> this enough.<\/p>\n

10. Don\u2019t use other people\u2019s music without permission.<\/p>\n

Youtube specific\u00a0tips<\/strong><\/h4>\n

1. If you do tutorials choose \u201cEducation\u201d as a category on Youtube. You can set it up to be your default upload category if you\u2019re like me and post mostly tutorials.<\/p>\n

2. Create a playlist and call it something relevant. I called mine for these tutorials \u201cSketch to Keyshape tutorials\u201d.<\/p>\n

3. Make sure to use Youtubes awesome templates for video annotations, end screen cards etc. They are really helpful getting your viewers to watch more content of yours. The more they watch the better right?<\/p>\n
