最初の YouTube 動画がどうあるべきかから始めましょう!
初心者に最適な動画のアイデア
YouTube を始めたばかりの場合は、基本に固執することをお勧めします。
コンテンツを作成するにつれて、これらのビデオはチャンネル内で低くなり続けるため、多くの教育的または情報量の多いコンテンツに正面から取り組みたくはありません。そのため、シンプルで高品質の動画を作成して視聴者にアピールすることをお勧めします。
ここにいくつかのアイデアがあります。
<強い>1.自己紹介
これは、最初の YouTube 動画を何にしようか迷っている人にとって、不可欠で簡単な最初の投稿です。自己紹介ビデオを作成します。自分が何をしているのか、視聴者がチャンネルに期待できるコンテンツの種類、どのように支援できるか、投稿頻度などです。
視聴者があなたのチャンネルに登録する理由を示すために、温かいウェルカム ビデオを作成することを目的としています。これは、陽気な「自己紹介」ビデオの良い例です。
2. Instagram で Q&A を主催し、YouTube 動画で最も適切な (または上位 3 つの) 質問に答える
YouTube でどんなことを話せばいいかわからないけど、たまたま instagram ページも運営していませんか?あなたのニッチや特定のトピックについて、Instagramストーリーに質問ステッカーを投稿してください。上位 3 つの質問を選び、例とシナリオを含む YouTube ビデオで回答してインタラクティブにします。これが Grace のやり方であり、この動画は 161,000 回再生されました。
