WALK AND TALK #66 Is Removing YouTube Videos Bad? And THESE Videos DON’T Work With YouTube Algorithm

Channel Junkies: YouTube For Real Estate Podcast

Welcome to today's YouTube For Realtors WALK AND TALK #67 - I have so many things going through my head every day about YouTube for Realtors that I just want to get it all out! I get asked so many questions everyday and coach so many agents it's time to answer all of those in depth, on my walk to the gym!

In todays episode I do a deep dive into Is Removing YouTube Videos Bad? And THOSE Videos DON’T Work With YouTube Algorithm. When we say bad video that doesn't mean it will affect your whole system. So we're going to talk about today about are you able to take videos down, edit them a little bit up re-upload them, and have success with that? Should you be doing it? We're looking at some average view durations suggested browse traffics calls from the videos. Shout out to Tom for throwing this question, I have a video I made before I learned from you about the call to action in the beginning, and this video only has a call to action at the end. It has 2670 views, 11 minute, 9 second average view duration. That's pretty gangster. Think about that. 11 minute average deuteration, and that's probably. This is how crazy I know my numbers. If you got an 11 minute average reiteration, I'm going to say your average visitation on that video's probably in the upper 30%, so that's probably a 30 something minute video just from all of my videos. Anytime you have an average federation of that, like 9/10/11. You're probably in the low 40%, especially when I start getting up a little bit higher. You know, in the average view durations sometimes you can look at like a 38% average duration, like d*mn it. That sucks, but if you see a 11 minute average federation, it's working for you. 48 percent is suggested that's great it only means you have a long video with those keywords. 24 browse great. So 75% of your traffic is coming from YouTube they're not having to search to find your videos. That's the beautiful thing about YouTube is good long videos. That's why I hate short form content and YouTube shorts. I am not suggesting that stuff you got 75% of your traffic coming from YouTube, suggesting it now only three calls and no sales is what you said. Now I don't know how you're tracking that. I've never, ever been able to track one video and the calls. But would it hurt my channel to edit in a clip with a call to action? That would mean deleting it and re uploading it as new. I would lose those numbers in my channel average. Yes, I am never in a million years going to take down a video to edit something and put it back up. It's got to completely regather steam when that video was launched. There could have been more people moving, relocating and searching and that's why it caught attraction early and it could be down right now and you're not going to get that same. You just never know. I never ever going to take down a video, especially when that's crushing like that with over 11 minute average view duration and not or edit it and put it back up. Here's the thing that video right there is gonna continue to drive traffic.

There's nothing harder on planet Earth than growing a marketing YouTube channel, but I don't let it really screw me. I just go all in every single week with three videos. I don't have many of them to get suggested and recommended. It's a very niche market. But I do understand a few of my keywords that drive the majority of my traffic. It gets suggested and recommended more and that's how we grow our YouTube channels. Other than that, things that can be channel killers are short videos. I've seen a gal who she gets business and you're getting calls so at the end of the day, I talk about this so much like we sit there and we listen to other people in the Facebook groups or other Youtubers. And I've only gotten I only get a couple of calls. I've only had a couple of buyers, it's like do you realize 99% of these agents right now would die to get a phone call from somebody as they're out there prospecting and door knocking and cold calling and paying for leads and running this hamster wheel. Getting calls is the most amazing thing on planet Earth. So applaud yourself. First and foremost, you're doing something right, but if you really want to take it to the next level then we got to start owning.
