Hi everybody,

Are there any tips or website you would recommend to help get more YouTube exposure? Before you answer this, I want to make it clear that...

- I want to mostly upload animation/cartoon videos

- I am using some social media website to promote myself (twitter,facebook)

- I don't want to make a lets play channel

- I would prefer to stay away from doing parody videos

Thank you in advance for any and all advice.

Content people are interested in, consistency and quality, in that order imo.

I was doing anime videos on YouTube for a while and was pretty surprised at the following I got considering how thrown together they were (although I used concepts like B-roll and other grade school video editing stuff that made it seem a lot better than the typical YouTube video) and with how randomly they appeared. I stopped after like two weeks because it was actually a lot of work to do it at that level and would take even more work to get it to the quality level I really wanted them at. I think if I had kept at it on a regular basis it could have been something cool but eh, life happens.

Sounds right on the money.

Also, TC, people on Youtube will follow just about anything. If you want more popularity, make your content dumber (like PewdiePie) - massive amounts of kids live on Youtube and are attracted to stupidity.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with making genuine content rather than attempting to appeal to as many people as possible. You'll get a more respectable fanbase.
