All those who are crazy about using YouTube and uploading their videos aspire for one thing in common, they want their video to go Viral. Its not easy, but its not very tough either, Follow these steps below and sure your video is the next viral video in YouTube.

Video Length:

Short is Super. Create 20 minutes of video if you want but then edit it back to 100 seconds. Use good video editing tools like Adobe Premiere, If the video is short, its file size is small meaning it’s easy to send/share across the web and mobile phones.

When you upload it to YouTube, DIGG and others, write highly engaging headlines that make people want to click on it and see what’s inside.

Again, study how other videographers do this and then copy their style. Look at the top 20 videos on DIGG every day and you’ll get the idea.

Selecting a Category Wisely:

Predict where people will look for your videos and enter them in the right category. Its better if you you avoid crowded categories. Look at areas that others tend to ignore and focus on those.

Spin a Story:

Even if you have a reallly good video, its all about how you promote the video with a story spun around it by a series of promotional videos about the main video. People generally fall for stories use it to your advantage, but never cross the line.
