How to Grow a YouTube Audience for Your Business FAST

Whether you're a marketing expert or simply looking to enjoy some interesting content online, you already know YouTube is the place to find great video content. So it probably won't come as a surprise that YouTube is also an excellent place to share video content of your own, build a devoted audience, and grow your real estate brand in the process!

To build your YouTube audience fast, we've got some proven tips to help you do just that.

Simple Steps to Build Your YouTube Audience from Scratch

Your Brand, Your Channel

Before you can build up your audience, you'll want to create a home of your own on YouTube. Your YouTube channel is where your audience will go to find your latest videos, interact with your brand, and learn how to take the next step with your real estate business. Fill out your profile completely, don't be afraid to show some personality, and include attractive, attention-grabbing photos to help your page stand out.

Create Compelling Content and Optimize Headlines

The key to success on YouTube is not just creating great content, but making sure your target audience finds your content easily. Consider some popular real estate content ideas, and be sure to brainstorm your own:

• How-to Videos – Share useful tips on buying/selling homes, home improvement ideas, staging open houses, and anything else that falls within your area of expertise.
• Meet the Team – Building an audience is much easier when that audience can attach a name and face to your content. Introducing your team is an easy way to get started, and get other members of your team in on the video content process.
• Community Fun – Are you sponsoring a big event, volunteering for a local cause, or taking your team out for some fun within the community? Creating video content around those activities is a great way to showcase your community and your team.
• Video Tours – Take viewers on a tour of your most interesting, attractive listings, and show off the home just like you would to an interested buyer.

You can help viewers find your videos by using SEO to optimize your video headlines, and you can start by researching the keyword terms that users search when looking for content like yours. It's also very important to provide detailed descriptions of your videos, and include popular search terms in descriptions when possible.

Plan Ahead and Be Consistent

If you have a real estate blog on your website, you already know that creating content consistently is one of the biggest keys to building an audience. Plan ahead, set a regular schedule to release videos, and stick to it so your audience knows when to come back for more.

Don't Be Afraid to Ask

When you create video content, don't be afraid to ask for subscribers at the end of the video. If the viewer enjoyed your content, there's a good chance they'll take you up on your offer!

Integrate YouTube with Your Website

Installing a YouTube widget on your website is an easy way to help your current audience find your YouTube channel and subscribe. Be sure to share the video content you create on your social media platforms as well to maximize your audience.
