This can be done by placing your logo or URL at the beginning of your video .
6- Choose Suitable Time To Upload Your Videos :
Ever gave it a thought or just posted your video at any time !!! If I post a video at 4 pm ,I don’t expect much views ,because no one is that free to watch my video at such a busy time . So yeah !!! Be careful about the posting time . Instead , choose a suitable time to post your general video in weekday . No one would like to sit back and watch advertising videos on weekends .
7- Create Better Quality Engaging Videos :
Make sure the your video is engaging . Plus , it should be informative so that the viewer completely indulges in the video and watches the complete video . Do not just present , present and present your idea in the video . Let people indulge in the video by making your video exciting and learning .
Your video should be a one which can grab it attention of the viewers. Your video should have an appropriate colour scheme – Don’t go on recording your videos in bright pinks , purples etc. Instead , cool yellow or blue would do . Keep suitable colours sincerely .
8- Make Your Videos Viral :

9- Have Patience :
