He who fails to plan is planning to fail.
– Sir Winston Churchill
The first step in getting started on your YouTube journey is to plan what your channel is going to be all about and the structure of the videos en route. Decide what it is that you love creating and focus on developing related skills, do not mimic trending YouTube channels, doing what you love is more important for a successful YouTube channel.
A video tends to perform better if it has its own script and moreover it helps you in organizing your videos efficiently and keeps you on track. The plot of your video will keep you guided on your path till the conclusion, without sneering off the main theme of the video. This script will also ensure a perfect flow of events as planned and the result is a well-focused video for the audience.
Include as many details as possible into your video script, including the exact dialogues you are going to say, the actions you will be taking between video, your call to actions, etc. Decide on the language and the phrasing that you will be using in the videos, as they usually vary depending on your target audience.

2.  Produce highly engaging Evergreen content

Produce top-notch content off your maximum efforts and resources. Create content that is engaging, informative and entertaining. Losing the hook into the middle of the video will likely see you losing a potential subscriber and a long-term audience.
If the script is well structured, chances are less that you lose a subscriber. Upload videos that are either entertaining or informative, or if possible, integrate them together for one heck of a great video that will surely make the viewer hit the subscribe button.
Upload a combination of Burst and Evergreen videos. Burst videos will be all the rage for a limited time, get you instant hits but will fade away as time passes by.
Evergreen videos are the ones that will get you archived views and will remain relevant irrespective of the time. If you are fear the wrath of the camera and do the talking, try publishing ‘Screen-casts.’ But whatever you do, just before you hit the publish button, make sure the videos are highly engaging and will be of value to your audience.
