    I have noticed alot of people asking how and were should they promote the video they make. So Im going to post some of the way to maximize your views and I hope between me and anyone else who offers help that we can boost your view count.

    1) On the Freedom/MGN forums.
    I mean granted you may not obtain a thousand views but people on here actually help one another and you will gain some views and anything can help when growing a YouTube channel.

    2) Dailymotion.
    Now I myself cant say I really see it benefiting my YouTube channel because im basically growing a whole different base outside of YouTube but people say it helps. With that being said though anyone who uses dailymotion and sees that it help I would love for an explanation :D

    3) Commenting on other people videos.
    Now this is an iffy one but it work. By commenting I do not mean spamming your new videos link on every channel you see but rather engaging in conversations with other. In some cases people will just view that person talking because they are curious and then some times they will view your channel because they like what you are saying.

    4) YTtalk:
    I recently tried out this forum and everyone over there is pretty helpful actually and since I have been on it which is a day I have gained about 40+ views which for a smaller channel is alot.

    Before I venture off I would like to mention a few tips to gaining views.
    1) Thumbnails- It draws in people attention if made professionally and some of the times it the only reason people will pick one video over the same one from a different maker.
    2) Tags- everyone knows that tags are important but you need to know how to use them correctly. You want to use general tags and more defined tags along with personal tags. For example: ' Call Of Duty Black Ops 3 Zombies' would be a general tag, ' Kino pile up glitch' would be a specific tag, 'UGT' would be a personal tag. Not many people use personal tags but lets says someone make a YT account with close to the same name you want to set yourself apart from them. For example if your name was PEWDS odds are people are also copying pewdiepies name and you want to set yourself apart from them.
    3) Playlist- people can go from one video to the next without clicking anything which makes getting views as well as watch time easier.
    4) Calls to action - Annotation or a form of communication to tell your views that you want them to do something. For example at the start or end of a video people always say " Thank you for watching the video if you liked it please like the video as well as subscribe "
    Collabs- they bring two YTr's views together making everyone gain something from the experience
    .
    Now the other one im going to say I have no idea how they work and or I don't use them but have heard of them being used.

    Twitter
    Reddit - Note though that most of the people who will actually view your video will be A trolls who will comment rude things and dislike ever video like a young girl who has a crush. Or B a YouTuber who will view your video to promote himself.
