“Think of your thumbnails like movie posters”
Custom thumbnail = 35% increase in play rate
Test Before You Invest
Lean Testing for YouTube
1. Upload some generic video content on a dummy account
2. Change titles, description and thumbnail to match proposed creative
3. See how many views you get from search and suggested videos in the first few days
4. Go and actually produce the videos which gain the most views
Use playlists to rank for terms you don’t have videos for
