What's the best Youtube act to do? cos......
I was thinking about starting on Youtube, maybe doing a bit of MCing, sorta like P daddy, or duddy or, well you get the point, bit silly for an over 50 though, so seriously, whats the most popular vids on youtube? just so I know.......um!
The weird, wacky, zany and funny style videos win all the cake on Youtube. Sport videos do pretty OK, but those folks who go the extra distance to make extreme videos of all types are also the top eye candy there.
It's all about video quality, screen transitions for those less talented acts (Weeding and filtering out poorly recorded footage).
What I do there is tech and web stuff, but I been trying to merge my poetry from here and elsewhere onto it as well, which is a very tough nut to crack, mainly because I am not the best spoken word poet, plus I have some of the worst backgrounds for my video footage. My sports videos do well there, and nature videos as well. I also do health and cooking videos, they do OK too if you put up great image thumbnails to accompany each video, and use good keywords for the titles and video descriptions.
If you need more help don't hesitate to contact me on FB, I help folks all the time with Youtube, and other web related stuff Nell. Good luck and anyone can make it there, it just takes time and high quality videos with a flair of creativity in them if they're not the most funny types.
I practically live on YouTube, when I'm not here or on Facebook, of course. I don't know about the most popular videos, but I did watch Psy's Gagnam Style (again) yesterday and noticed he has over a billion views. Who knew?
As far as my favorite channels, i like Distastrophe Films, Barely Political and one that I think is called The Drunken Kitchen - my favorite of her videos is called Butter Yo S**t (another word for poop that I don't want to try to sneak past the censors). I also like Epic Rap Battles of History.
One of my favorite videos of all time is called The Evolution of Dance.
Good luck with your new rap career!

How many views a day should a first YouTube video get?I know that it will depend on many things, but on average, if a person does not have any subscribers, how many views a day is a good sign?
