Extensive data analyzed by AI

1. Recommendation: Make Longer Videos

1.1 Increase Watch Time & Boost Your YouTube Ranking!

1.1.1 YouTube Prioritizes Watch Time!

In recent years, YouTube has been increasingly emphasizing the importance of watch time, and its algorithm has changed to a design that prioritizes watch time.

Watch time affects various factors, such as rankings in search results, appearances in related videos, and recommendations to viewers.

1.1.2 Evaluation Criteria for Thumbnail A/B Tests is "Total Playback Time"

In YouTube's thumbnail A/B testing, the "best" or "recommended" thumbnail is determined solely based on the evaluation of total playback time.

It is important to note that it is not evaluated by click-through rate.

YouTube tends to give preferential treatment to videos that viewers watch for a longer duration.

1.2 Specific Methods for Making Longer Videos

Explain the Process in Detail: Explain the cooking steps in detail while communicating with viewers through subtitles.

Combine Multiple Recipes: Introduce two or more recipes in one video.

1.3 Particularly Recommended: "Breakfast Recipes" & "Dinner Recipes"

When combining multiple recipes, grouping them by themes like "Breakfast Recipes" or "Dinner Recipes" is more likely to meet viewers' needs and lead to increased watch time.

1.4 The Key to Increased Ad Revenue!

Videos shorter than 8 minutes cannot have ads inserted in the middle.

By making your video 8 minutes or longer, you can insert ads in the middle of the video, which will lead to increased revenue.

Don't forget that YouTube is a platform that runs on ad revenue! Making longer videos not only increases watch time but also contributes greatly to increasing your revenue.

2. Capture Viewers' Hearts with a Captivating Title! The Art of Creating Popular Video Titles

A compelling title captures viewers' hearts and is a powerful tool to drastically increase video views. We have thoroughly analyzed the titles of popular videos and condensed their secrets to success into concrete and practical techniques.

10 Secrets to YouTube Success

2.1 Keywords That Trigger Search Intent

By including keywords that users are likely to search for in your title, your video will be more easily displayed in search results and accurately capture the needs of viewers. Be sure to clearly indicate the dish name, ingredients, cooking method, etc.

2.2 Leverage Google Trends

Prioritize the use of high-search-volume keywords that you have researched in Google Trends, which will be explained in 4.5. Be sure to research in Google Trends using the 【YouTube Search】filter! If you leave it as the default Web Search, you will get very different results.

2.3 Phrases That Spark Curiosity

Make it irresistible to click! Add words that appeal to viewers' emotions and spark their curiosity.

2.4 Numbers for a Concrete Image

By using numbers, you can give viewers a concrete image, such as "easy" or "quick to make", and increase their motivation to watch. Be sure to indicate the amount of ingredients, cooking time, number of views, etc.

2.5 Symbols and Emojis for Visual Impact

By effectively using symbols and emojis, you can give a visual impact and differentiate your video from others. However, be careful not to overuse them.

2.6 Expressions Tailored to Your Target Audience

By using wording and expressions that match your target audience, your title will resonate more with viewers. Try to use expressions that are appropriate for beginners, advanced users, or specific needs.

2.7 Searching by Ingredient Name is Most Important, About 10 Times More Than Dish Name or Cooking Method, and 5 Times More Than Scene

Choose the most appropriate expression based on search intent and search volume.

2.8 Generate Interest with Comparisons

By using comparisons like "More delicious than 〇〇!" or "Better than 〇〇!", you can stimulate viewers' curiosity and make them want to try it. Comparing it to a popular dish can also help reduce resistance to new dishes.

2.9 Raise Expectations with Superlatives

Using superlatives like "The best", "The most delicious", "MOST", "Incredible", "Amazing" can raise expectations for the dish and encourage viewers to watch.

2.10 Adding a Story Element

Incorporating anecdotes or traditions from people close to you, like "Taught by my mother-in-law," "My husband's favorite dish," or "Grandma's secret recipe" can create a sense of familiarity and trust. Adding seasonal touches like "Perfect for summer" or "Autumn flavors" is also effective.

By combining these tips, you can create irresistible titles that people can't help but click on and boost your video views!

3. Engage Viewers with Subtitles! How to Maximize Engagement

Subtitles Are a Conversation with Your Viewers!
Subtitles not only help viewers understand the content of the video but also serve as an important means of communication with them. By using subtitles effectively, you can increase viewer engagement and encourage actions such as subscribing to your channel, liking, commenting, and sharing your videos.
Unfortunately, many YouTubers only think of subtitles as "transcripts" and fail to fully utilize their potential as a communication tool.
By actively communicating with viewers through subtitles, you can capture their hearts and grow your fanbase.

3.1 Essential Know-how for Subtitle Creation

On YouTube, subtitles play a vital role in helping viewers understand video content and increasing engagement. Understand the key points of effective subtitle creation to increase the number of views your videos receive.

3.2 Types of Subtitles: Open Captions and Closed Captions

There are two main types of subtitles: open captions and closed captions.

Channels aiming for global expansion must use closed captions.
Displaying open captions in a specific language may make some viewers feel unwelcome, leading them to leave the video.
Furthermore, explanations in a specific language may limit viewership to users of that language, which can be detrimental.
Of course, you should not include any specific language in your thumbnails either.

3.3 A Critical Issue with iPhones, Which Have a High Market Share in English-Speaking Countries

On iPhone devices, which have a high market share in English-speaking countries (and even higher by 3 points among women), open captions and closed captions become invisible when they overlap.

3.3.1 On iPhones, when subtitles overlap, both become invisible, which is a major drawback. For global expansion, it is recommended to avoid using open captions and instead utilize Plans A+B.

Example of how subtitles appear when they overlap on an iPhone

4. Increase Your Audience with Descriptions & Hashtags!

4.1 How to Write Effective Descriptions: Distinguish Between Singular and Plural, and Consider the Viewer's Search Intent

A Captivating Introduction: The beginning of your video description, the "description input field" in YouTube Studio, is crucial.
First, list three important hashtags.
Then, use essential keywords to concisely convey the content of your video,
capture the viewers' interest, and entice them to click on your video.

✅The Results Can Be Completely Different Depending on Whether You Choose Singular or Plural. Make the Optimal Choice.

✅Make Effective Use of Hashtags: By Including Relevant Hashtags in Your Description Input Field,

You Make It Easier for Viewers to Find Your Video.
It Also Increases the Likelihood of Your Video Appearing Alongside Videos on Similar Topics,
Leading to New Viewer Acquisition.

4.2 Master YouTube Search with Descriptions & Hashtags!: Secrets to Ranking Higher

4.3 ✅How Videos with a High Number of Views Use Hashtags

It is surprising how many channels do not make effective use of hashtags.
Only half of recipe video channels that are expanding globally are using hashtags.
Make sure you make good use of sub-category hashtags.

ℹ️Comparison of Singular and Plural in Recipe Search: Ingredient Names, Dish Names, Cooking Methods, Dinner

Singular Form is More Important for Ingredient Searches in Recipe Search

ℹ️Comparison of Singular and Plural in Dessert Recipe Search

Comparison of Singular and Plural in Recipe Search

ℹ️For languages without plurals, such as Japanese, Korean, and Chinese, it is important to first translate into English to check for singular and plural forms before translating from English into the target language. Google Translate & DeepL often automatically convert to plural, which can be a big disadvantage!


ℹ️With AI translation, you can specify singular and plural forms in the prompt. AI can generate click-worthy titles, friendly descriptions, and other YouTube-optimized text.
You can also translate to multiple languages at once and analyze the language composition of comments in the comment section. We also have a consulting plan on how to utilize AI.

4.4 Choose the Right Theme & Increase Your Revenue!

Chocolate cake is very popular, which means there are four times as many competitor videos as cheesecake videos.
It is quite difficult to create a video that will stand out from the crowd when there are so many competitors.

On the other hand, cheesecake has less competition, so it is easier to get views with a high-quality video, which will lead to monetization.

Also, CPM earnings for chocolate cake tend to be lower due to the fierce competition and could even be 1/10th of the CPM for cheesecake.

On the other hand, cheesecake has less competition, so CPM earnings tend to be higher, allowing you to monetize more efficiently.

Conclusion

If you want to monetize your YouTube channel, it is recommended to create videos on niche and profitable keywords (like cheesecake) rather than highly competitive and less profitable keywords (like chocolate cake).

4.6 Utilizing Chapters

For recipe videos, by creating chapters and adding them to your description,
it becomes easier for viewers to access specific parts of the video.
This not only improves viewer convenience but can also increase the watch time of the video.

5. ASMR: Boost Your Video Views!

We will introduce examples where ASMR has been used to achieve amazing results, such as a channel that got 400 videos, 4.8 million subscribers, and 1.3 billion views in 4 years.

6. Win with Visual Impact! Secrets to Creating Thumbnails That Boost Your Click-Through Rate

6.1 Selecting and Positioning Lighting Equipment for Thumbnail Photography

6.1.1 Choosing the Right Lighting Equipment for Photography

To shoot attractive thumbnails for recipe videos, it is key to present the dishes in vibrant colors and make them look appealing. The quality and positioning of the lighting play a more important role than the quality of the camera. While LED lights are popular for photography, typical household LEDs are not suitable for food photography.

ℹ️There are two especially important features when choosing LEDs for shooting.

One is a high Color Rendering Index (CRI/Ra). CRI indicates the ability to reproduce the subtle differences in color. Choose shooting LEDs with a CRI (Ra) of 93 or higher, preferably around 95. If this value is low, even an expensive camera won't be able to perform to its full potential.

The other is color temperature. There is orange light with a low color temperature, white light in the middle, and blue light with a high color temperature. Recently, shooting LEDs that allow you to freely adjust the color temperature have become available.
Use LED lighting like this.

Explanation about lighting equipment

6.1.2 Positioning Lighting Equipment is Crucial

Positioning lighting is particularly important in recipe photography. For the first light source, place a light behind and slightly above the subject to create a semi-backlight effect. The best angle is like the hour hand of a clock pointing to 10:30. If it is difficult to position the light behind and slightly above, illuminate the wall and utilize the reflection.
This will create shadows and areas that sparkle, but rotate the plate little by little to find the point where the shadows and sparkle stand out the most.
The second light should be positioned diagonally in front and to the right to slightly brighten the front that has become dark due to the backlight.
To add a little more brightness from the left side, place a reflector (white board) on the left side and utilize the reflected light. Adjust the position of the reflector (white board) to find the best position.

The key to making the food look fresh is to create points of sparkle through reflection. The sparkle will make the food look much more delicious and fresh. If the food is not shiny, you can apply a small amount of olive oil to create some shine.

If the shadows are too strong, do not direct the light onto the food, but place two sheets of tracing paper between them to create a soft, diffused light that will lessen the shadows. Direct lighting creates strong shadows. Conversely, for summer recipes, stronger light and darker shadows can create a summery feel.

The background of the recipe in the photo can be referred to in the thumbnails in 6.3. They are shooting with the background in mind to look as good as possible.

Pay attention to the color of the plates and the color of the table, so that the thumbnails look beautiful when displayed side by side, and avoid thumbnails where similar dishes are lined up. However, be careful not to let the background stand out more than the food.

The difference in lighting for food photos

6.2 Placing Your Channel Icon in the Thumbnail Image

Be sure to place your channel icon in your thumbnail images to brand your channel and make it easy for viewers to find.

6.3 Color Scheme When the Channel's Thumbnails Are Displayed Side by Side

Pay attention to the color scheme of the thumbnail images across your entire channel. If there are only browns lined up, it gives a monotonous impression. Being conscious of colorful thumbnails, such as greens and reds, will make your channel more appealing. Appeal to a visually engaging recipe channel in the thumbnail list and aim to be a channel where people will repeatedly watch your past videos.

6.3.1 Professional use of lighting, good use of shadows to create a three-dimensional look, and the use of the highest quality lighting.

Example of an attractive thumbnail 1

6.3.2 The high CRI of the lighting fixtures makes the colors vivid and eye-catching.

Example of an attractive thumbnail 2
