Whenever you make a video for your YouTube channel, keep in mind that the video quality should be the best i.e. the video and sound should be HD. And while making the video, the camera or mobile phone in which you are shooting the video should not shake much i.e. do not move much. Otherwise, the people watching your video will not watch the video for long, which will reduce the watch time of your channel.

And when the watch time decreases, YouTube will feel that your video is not worth watching. And then youtube will not recommend your channel further so that you will have problems growing your channel.

One more thing, whenever you shoot a video, shoot in landscape because most of the landscape videos are put on YouTube. And if possible, make more Facecam videos by showing the face.

Suppose your keyword is the Best camera phone for videography. To make this keyword a hashtag in your video, first, you have to write a hashtag ( # ).

Now your keyword Best camera phone for videography Your keyword has now become hashtag #Best_camera_phone_for_videography. And you do not have to give space while creating a hashtag.
