Are you lacking the views that you think your YouTube video deserves? You are not the only one. Out of the billions of YouTube videos uploaded daily on the website only a few get lucky enough to catch the attention of millions of its visitors. Some videos get lucky while other videos reflect huge numbers of views after owners buy YouTube views from some third party website.

However, there are those who get thousands of views on each of their uploads. They are the so called “YouTube influencers” who you should be buddies with. One endorsement from them and you will get yourself scores of subscribers and of course views. Now that you are aware of that, you can start buddying up to convince them to help you get YouTube views.

Search Their Blogs and Engage Them

Almost all YouTube influencers have blogs where they can archive their videos and write something about them such as what inspires them to do it or why it is helpful to their audience. So all you have to do is search them out. You can either find the URL to their blogs on their YouTube channel or perhaps on their social profiles.

After you locate their blogs, find time to read their vlogs or video blogs so you can create a meaningful feedback on the comment section which will catch their attention and invite their interest. If you fail the first time try again and again until they will see that you are a valuable audience or a loyal follower of their videos.

Do Video Reviews on Your Own Blog

Well, I am hoping you do have a blog. If you don’t, then perhaps it’s time you do. Having a blog is crucial especially when you really want to get appreciated by these YouTube influencers. Why? It’s because it will allow you to write reviews on videos owned by them. Make sure that they are all positive though. You don’t want to ruin your chances just because you were too honest or ignorant.

There are two ways to go about a video review. The first one is to shoot a video about it. The second one is to write about it on your blog and embed the video there. How will they know that you did a video review? Oh, these influencers do know how to keep track of their views and traffic through YouTube insights or the so called analytic tool of YouTube. For sure your URL will find its way to them if not you just have to be courageous and tell them about it. Although you have to worry about appearing to be deliberately trying to win their favor, it’s worth a try.

Work With Other YouTube Users with the Same Goal

If for weeks you have not made an impression to these influencers, there is one other way to get under their good graces right under their noses. That’s quite a lot of under. Well, I think it’s a suitable way of saying it since you are not really directly engaging the influencers but the people who are also vying for their endorsement. Start working with them. First you can post video responses or plain comments to their videos and then message them about your interest. In times like this, you are not competitors but collaborators.
