Method 3 of 3: Post comments with lots of likes / feedback

1. 

   
   
   Familiarize yourself with YouTube's community guidelines. YouTube Community Guidelines prohibit nudity / pornography, violence, hatred, spam, harmful / dangerous, threatening, and piracy. For comment, especially prohibiting comments that are relevant but hateful, threatening and spamming.

2. 

   
   
   Think why you were commenting. What is your purpose in commenting on that video? Did the video inspire you? That video made you laugh? Think video creators miss something and can be improved? Do you expect to spark a topic of discussion? Leaving a trivial or thoughtless comment can make you more likely to be blocked than noticed, so think about what to comment on before posting.
   • For example, you may have watched a dance tutorial video for beginners on YouTube; maybe you're just practicing, and even though it's a guide for people like you, you feel that it's still too difficult. You want to tell the teacher in the video that you find that dance difficult to learn.

3. 

   Read other people's comments to avoid duplication. Before commenting on your video, scroll through as many comments as possible to make sure your comments don't overlap with others.
   • If you find a comment that looks quite similar to what you mean, you should just like (click the "thumb up" icon below the comment line) and / or respond instead of posting a comment. new.

4. 

   Respect others. If you don't like a video, you have the right to speak up - as long as you speak in a respectful manner. If your first thought after watching the video is “This video is boring. What a waste of time! " Why should you spend more time writing comments? If you feel like commenting, you need to find out why you hate the video, and give some advice to improve the video.
   • Avoid comments like “The teaching style is crazy! Spend time watching - learn how to teach it !!!! "
   • Try writing a comment like “Thanks for making this tutorial video! I am a beginner, and although this is a video tutorial for beginners, I still have many difficulties. I think it would be easier if the dance was divided into more parts, with more rehearsals after each part. Finally, instead of going straight to a full dance with music, it would be better to do the dance twice at a slower speed and without music. ”

5. 

   Add something to the comment section. Social media is a place to share ideas and build connections. If your only comment after watching the video is "so boring", you are not helping or contributing anything. Maybe the video is boring; If you finish watching and feel that you have to comment, try to be informative, encouraging or at least a little witty.
   • For example, when commenting on a dance tutorial video, users can make their comment useful for giving advice so the video maker can improve. Ideally, the creator will listen and apply this advice in upcoming dance tutorials.
   • To be even more helpful, commenters can share a link to another video showing dance moves they found more effective (if any).

6. 

   Brief. YouTube comments have no limit on the length of characters, but that doesn't mean you need to write as long as an essay. The longer your comments are, the less likely it is that others will read them all. Try to write as short a comment as you can but respectfully and provide helpful information.
7. Avoid using capital letters. If you write a comment, type in all capital letters, you are screaming online. When your entire comment line is in uppercase, people will be less serious about you; there are others who consider you a farce because of the inability to express a point. advertisement

Advice

• You can format YouTube comment lines to bold, italic, or underlined:
  • Comment bold There must be an asterisk ( *) on either side of the text (for example, * this text is in bold *).
  • Comment italicized There must be an underscore (_) on either side of the text (for example, this comment is italic_).
  • Hyphenated text must have a hyphen (-) on either side (for example, -this text is crossed out-).
• Promoting your own YouTube channel or an external service (such as your website) in comments will often frustrate others, and as a result your comments can be reported as spam.

Warning

• Avoid negative or malicious comments on YouTube videos. If you are going to say something very negative, think about something else like a video report.
