At Vidsummit 2017 I gave a presentation about increasing frequency of uploads on YouTube. For many, this would come down to daily content or at least increase their upload frequency to 3-5 videos per week in order to grow their youtube channel.

12. Quality video comes down
to the quality of the
experience the video
creates.
13. OBJECTIVE QUALITY
EDITING QUALITY
The editing should be
subtle, effects should
usually be minimal. The
editing shouldn’t distract
from the content or
contradict the tone.
VISUAL QUALITY
Clear sharp images, with
limited distractions. Focus
on main subjects. Good
Lighting. Appropriate colors
and visual tone.
AUDIO QUALITY
High enough audio levels.
Balanced background
music and effects. Little to
no ambient noise or echoes.
Words are spoken clearly
and flow steadily.
14. SUBJECTIVE QUALITY
ENGAGING
Can this video drive
participation, interaction or
a conversion? Videos that
can create emotional
impact tend to drive more
engagement.
INTERESTING
The video has to hold a
viewer’s attention. It
shouldn’t drag on in areas,
and shouldn’t have
unnecessary filler.
RELEVANT
Does the content hold any
real value for the intended
viewer, and is that value
made clear upfront? Did the
video deliver as promised?
