INVESTMENT: $250.00
Weâll Set Up Your Youtube Channel With All The Bells And Whistles
Or, You Can Use The Information Below To Do It Yourself
1. Create An Awesome Banner
Including a great big banner at the top of your YouTube page is crucial, because your channel should be visually appealing. Ensure that your images and copy are in the middle of the banner and not at the edges, so theyâll still be visible on a mobile screen. At the bottom of your banner, you can put links to all of your social assets: a link to your webpage, your Google+, your Twitter account or anything else.
2. Status and Features
Go to the âVideo Managerâ page and then, in the left menu, select âChannel.â Under the Channel menu, click âStatus and features.â
- Make sure all features are enabled: Monetization, Longer videos, External annotations, Custom thumbnails, etc.
- Make sure that all the boxes that contain these features are colored green on the bottom. For example, if you want to earn money from your videos, you need to enable the âMonetizationâ feature and connect your YouTube channel to your AdSense account. But more importantly, you should enable longer videos. Otherwise, your videos will be limited to only 15 minutes.
3. Verifying Your Domain with Google Search Console
Ask your web developer to verify your domain with Google Search Console. Once youâve done that, you can add a link that will appear in your YouTube video and lead back to your website. You can see your domain in the âAssociated websiteâ section, in the âAdvancedâ settings.
4. Commercial Music
Donât use any commercial music in your videos. YouTube provides royalty-free music that you can use. But never use any music that youâve found online.
5. Advanced channel settings
Now, you can go select âAdvancedâ under the âĐĄhannelâ menu.
- First of all, go to the âCountryâ section and make sure you set your home country.
- Fill in the âChannel keywordsâ bar. Only include keywords that are pertinent to you YouTube channel.
- Tick the âAdvertisementsâ box if you want to monetize your channel. Be sure to disable interest-based ads.
- Next youâll see the âAdWords account linkingâ option. If you have a Google AdWords account, make sure you link it to your account. Click the âLink an AdWords accountâ button and then type in your AdWords account number.
- If you use Google Analytics, type your Universal Analytics ID into the âGoogle Analytics property tracking IDâ bar. It will provide you with in-depth information about your YouTube channelâs performance on your Google Analytics dashboard. Even if youâre not going to use it immediately, itâs worth doing now.
6. Upload defaults
Under the âChannelâ menu, select âUpload Defaults.â These defaults are the settings that will be applied to your web uploads, which means you can choose defaults for your video tags, privacy settings, comments, language and other things.
- In the âPrivacyâ section, make sure you set your videos to âpublic.â
- Go to the âCategoryâ section and set your videos for the âHow-to & Styleâ category. Google loves how-to videos; therefore, you should label yours as how-to videos.
- Make sure that you select âStandard YouTube Licenseâ in the âLicenseâ section.
- Donât fill in the âTitleâ bar, because youâre not going to use the same title in all of your uploaded videos. Leave it blank.
- Click on the âDescriptionâ field, press the enter key and then press, for example, the dash key several times. This is good for readability. You can type in something like this: âFind me on my website,â and then add your links. You can also enter your Twitter account, a link to your Facebook page and your main websiteâs URL in the âDescriptionâ field.
- Next, move on to the âTagsâ section. Only use tags that pertain to your product, service or business. A pro tip here is to always use one tag on all of your videos that is unique to you.
- In the âComments and ratingsâ section, choose the âAllow commentsâ option. Google loves comments, because they mean that people are watching your videos.
- If you donât want all of your videos to be automatically monetized, leave the âMonetizationâ option off. You can choose which videos you want to monetize later on, when you upload them.
- Select your language in the âVideo languageâ section .
- In the âCaption certificationâ section, select the following: âThis content has never aired on television in the US.â
- Finally, fill in the âVideo location.â

How To Create A Youtube Brand Account And Add AÂ Manager
(Add Scott@ciwebgroup.com as a Manager)
INVESTMENT: Free to ?
Music greatly enhances most videos, and it can often make or break your production. Most music is copyrighted⌠and the more popular it is⌠the more you will pay in royalties to use it. If you donât pay for usage rights, you could be sued. Furthermore, Youtube will restrict any video with copyrighted music⌠and they may also take away your entire Youtube channel. However, there are several ways to avoid all of this⌠from free⌠to costing thousands. Here are our suggestions:
- Youtube has a free music library. You can upload your video to Youtube, select a music track from their library, and Youtube will automatically sync the music with the video. The drawback is, you donât have much flexibility with how the music is used within the production. Itâs either all or nothing. And if you want to add two different cuts of music to your production, forget it. A better solution is to download the music track, or tracks from Youtube, and edit the music into the video, exactly where you want it to be (Advanced Editing Skills Required).
- Select your music from an online music library. There are many online music libraries to explore! This is commonly referred to as âcannedâ music. This method is probably the most effective and economical way to add music to your production. And itâs surprisingly easy and fun to search. Here are the steps to follow:
- Search online for music libraries.
- Search for the music you think will work best for your production.
- Purchase the rights (usually $40 â $60 per song).
- Download the music file.
- Edit the music into the production (Advanced Editing Skills Required)
- Commission music to be produced. The upfront can be expensive, but your own the rights. Search the web for a company that will handle writing the music, performing the music, and recording the music. Have them produce various different versions, so you will have the flexibility to use your music in many different ways. Youâll want a :05, :10, :15, :30, and 1:00 version. If there are lyrics with the music, you will want a music-only track produced, as well.
HERE ARE A COUPLE GREAT EXAMPLES OF CUSTOM PRODUCED JINGLES
Just like a lot of things⌠with music, you get what you pay for. If you are a start-up or new company, you should probably consider option #1 & #2. If you are a medium to large company, you should consider option #2 & #3.

YOUTUBE VIDEO OPTIMIZATION
INVESTMENT: $50.00 Per Video
Many of our clients already have videos they use on their website. Or they have recorded lots of videos themselves, uploaded them to Youtube, but donât know what to do to convert them into a marketing element that gets results. We can handle this for you, so you can focus on your business! Or, You can use the information below to do it yourself.
Getting a high number of video views may seem a daunting challenge, but it isnât impossible as long as you have the right plan. Think about it â you would never really think of creating a new blog post without optimizing it. With video SEO, itâs exactly the same. You must treat every single video that you upload with the reverence that you would give your blog post.
Letâs dive into the details!
1. vidIQ Vision
First of all, you need to install the vidIQ Vision extension. Once youâve done so, you will see a little âIQâ icon at the top right of your screen. Then go to your YouTube channel and refresh it. Now, if you look down below any video, youâll see the vidIQ panel. It provides you with loads of information, like your average number of views, your view rate (views per hour), the number of subscribers driven by your certain video and much more. Even a free account offers you lots of useful stats.
2. Video tagging
Always tag your videos and use keywords and key phrases that pertain to it. If you add any tags in the âUpload Defaultsâ section , they will appear in this particular video. Besides the tags you add to the defaults, you can add other tags when uploading your video. By the way, with vidIQ you can see what tags other video creators are using.
3. Private mode
When uploading your video, make sure that you set it to private mode at the time. Youâre going to make some changes while itâs uploading, and you definitely donât want to accidentally publish it until youâve completed your optimization. Go to the âInfo and Settingsâ section and in the drop-down menu, choose âPrivate.â
4. Video title
Make the title of your video readable to humans. Donât just stuff it with keywords, because Google is smart and can figure out what youâre trying to do. Use natural language and complete phrases that look natural. You need to achieve a nice balance between your keywords and your contentâs readability.
5. Video description
Once youâve chosen your title, copy the entire phrase and paste it into the first line of your video description. Try to write, approximately, a 400-word description of your video and provide as much information as possible. Think of your video as essentially a mini-blog post.
Hereâs a pro tip for writing a great video description. Just think â wouldnât it be great if you could skip forward to the main point of that 60-minute presentation video? Actually, itâs possible. For example, your video is three minutes long, and you begin discussing video SEO at the one-minute mark. In your description you can type: â1:00: I discuss video SEO.â When you publish this video, YouTube will turn your timestamps into tappable and clickable links that will allow users to skip forward to a particular time in the video. You can help both Google and your viewers understand what your video is about by using these timestamps.
6. Push notifications
In the right-hand side of the âVideo Managerâ page, if you have linked to Google+ page and Twitter account, youâll see two boxes with Google+ and Twitter symbols. Make sure these two boxes are ticked. Then copy your entire description on the left-hand side and paste in the little box above the Google+ and Twitter boxes. You need to do this, because this is a message that gets pushed out on a push notification to all of your YouTube channel subscribers.
7. Thumbnails
The next thing you need to do is to create a thumbnail. Create an image with a resolution of 1280Ă720 and make sure it has a blank background that contains your video description, again, add your video description to your thumbnail. Now Google will be able to better understand the context of your video.
8. Closed captions
All of your YouTube videos should be close-caption enabled. In the âVideo managerâ section go to the âSubtitles and CCâ section and click the âAdd new subtitles or CCâ button. The next thing you should do is to go to the transcription tool within Youtube, and transcribe your video. Or you can go to Rev.com. This tool will transcribe audio and video files for only $1 per minute. Once youâve got a file with transcripts, you can go back to YouTube and upload the file to your video.
9. Cards
At the top of the page, next to âSubtitles and CC,â go to the âCardsâ section. For now, this feature is only available to viewers on a desktop device. You can add up to five cards to your video. These cards actually point viewers to a specific URL and display customized images, titles, and calls to action based on the card type. By using YouTube cards, you can send people from your video to your website. You can set those cards to appear and fly out at any time in the video that you want. Once youâve finished with all these updates, you can save your changes.
10. Annotations
create a strong call-to-action within YouTube annotations. When used correctly, annotations can improve engagement and viewership.
