Sell Beats With YouTube

Did you know that YouTube is a powerful engine to promote and sell your beats with?

Maybe you did but you don't know how some producers are getting thousands of views for each of their beats! The secret lies behind how they title their post. The thing to remember is that you will want to use a title that is similar to what artists are actually typing into Google or YouTube to look for certain type of beats, be it genre,style, beats per minute.

What I've noticed is that by using phrases like "Kendick Lamar type beat" or "Drake type beat", I'm actually getting more views! The key is to start your title like this, then put the name of your beat and your producer name after this.

Once you completed a beat, think of which major artist you can hear on it and use this to your advantage by naming your title to this.

I would recommend using some nice graphics in your video as well, plain looking videos tend not to get as many plays. A great and easy way to make nice beat videos for YouTube is by using Adobe After Effects. The video here is also made with it.

You can look for popularity of certain phrases by using Google adwords keyword planner. This is also an awesome tool to look for other great phrases related to your search term. So don't limit your self, keep searching for even better keyword phrases to use for your YouTube titles.
