How You Can Write Video Titles to Get Views

The hardest part of creating YouTube videos for me is coming up with titles. Anybody else? Anyone? Anyone? In this video, I'm going to share with you how I overcame the struggle and how I craft out my clickable titles to make sure people want to watch my videos. In this video, I'm going to share how I incorporate an optimized keyword into my title but still make that title sound exciting and pitch a story behind it. Stick around because I'm going to break it down for you. Hi, my name is Trina and on this channel I help creative entrepreneurs like you get on YouTube to grow your business. And if you're going to grow your business through YouTube video, you really got to have a title that makes people want to click and watch. Besides the thumbnail, the title is kind of the most second important thing with your video and is one of the first impressions they get. So, so how do you create this title that gets people wanting to watch but still optimize so you can rank your video and show up in suggested videos? When creating these titles, it can take you a couple times to think about it. So with one of my clients, we've gone back and forth four, five, six, seven times on really tweaking a title to make it sound enticing for somebody to click. What I suggest doing is taking the keyword that you would like to rank for. So, so for me, for this video, I want to rank for titling your videos. Now what can I do to make it sound more enticing to you so that you want to watch it? Because if I just said titling your videos or how to title your videos, it might not stand out amongst all the other competition that's out there. So for me, I want to incorporate some kind of emotion or some kind of teaser or value to that title. One of the things that you can use is you can go to co scheduler and really use that to help you build out a headline. And you want to think of your titles as like a newspaper headline or a magazine headline. You got to grab attention quick. And don't worry if this is taking you some time. It's going to take some time and practice. Just start writing down a bunch of different titles, tweaking it, adding words, taking away words, really playing with that title. Your goal here is to bring that optimized keyword along with something that pitches that value. So that means I came down to this video that said, coming up with clickable video titles. So you probably want your video to be clickable and you probably want a title that gets people to click it. So that's how I brought my video title keyword in with a story or value proposition to my video. Now what's really important here is once you have that title and people click on it, you really got to perform on that value in that first five seconds of your video. Otherwise you will see your audience retention drop. If you're promising you're going to teach people how to write clickable titles, you you've got to reassure them that in the hook of your video. So for me that's what I did. The hardest part of creating YouTube videos for me is coming up with titles. Anybody else?
