I have a Youtube channel that I would like to promote better to get more traffic to my channel. I've read a lot of internet sources and found a couple effective methods (ranking high in search through keyword and tags and promoting on Youtube and other place my target audience gathers). Any other advice that you could offer? Thanks.

@Juan Cruz Giusto how to research what the market place needs?  What factors to consider while starting a business. Can you give some resources like an ametures guide to start a business?

@Emerald Wilkins Hi! Regarding the traffic to your website, SEO (search engine optimization) is a good and cheap strategy. You should create a personal page if you dont have one (with wordpress is really cheap and simple). This way you can direct traffic from google searches. You can study that.

The best advice I can give you is to define well your business plan. Dont see your YT channel as a YT channel only. You have a passion and you want to make it profitable in the long term. How you do that? Generating enough income so the business can maintain itself. You need to discover your unique strength, why your channel is different from Leo's and the houndreds that are out there. A good way to define your business is with The Business Model Canvas (http://www.alexandercowan.com/business-model-canvas-templates/).

Also you need to study your customer. Define it as accurate as possible, know everything about them (problems, desires, routines, etc). After you do this interview 50 of them and ask them about their problems (the best would be in person but skype will do the work) . If you are not solving any problems to them you will not create traction or traffic. 

Also, starting thinking long term. How are you gonna make your business profitable? Courses, ads, sponsorship, etc? 

You need to study business and implementation. Even if you have a great product, if nobody wants it you will fail. Some books you can read are:

- The Lean Startup

- Business Model Generation

- Value Proposition Design

- Running Lean

These 4 books are all you need if you want to start a business, they will help you a lot!

Have you practical experience or just theoretical experience?

[Juan Cruz Giusto]

@Toby Mostly theoretical but most of my teachers and mentors and serial and successful entrepreneurs (I'm studying in San Francisco)
