When utilizing Youtube for their online video content, many people stress about how many views their videos are getting. While views are important, it’s becoming clear that content (and good content at that) is becoming more and more important and valuable to online video’s effectiveness. The bottom line: a smaller number of viewers who are more engaged will be more valuable to you than a lot of views from people are aren’t engaged. That is why it’s more important than ever to make sure your videos have the most compelling and substantive content possible.
