The Shorts feed is blowing up, especially in the entertainment niche. These quick mini-clips satisfy the audience\u2019s need for escape and entertainment. However, creators from all genres are hopping on the quickly rising Shorts Express. Whether it is incorporating enticing snippets from your longer videos or dedicating an entire Shorts channel, here are 10 surefire ways to get more views on YouTube Shorts:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h6><strong>Quickly hook viewers in the first few seconds<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Grab your audience\u2019s attention right away. Since you have only 60 seconds to make your point, you have to jump right in without an intro. Have a captivating hook but leave some juicy info out and ask them to wait till the end for it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, for a video titled \u201cSecrets that successful YouTubers don\u2019t tell you,\u201d your hook could be \u201cWait for the end of this video to discover our secret tip on how to get more viewers\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This tip works even if you\u2019re repurposing your longer content. All you have to do is record separate hooks for your Shorts.\u00a0<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h6><strong>Storytelling<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure that you keep your promise and deliver some valuable information in the end. Even though Shorts is usually an entertainment platform, you still need to provide valuable content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s not only a matter of what you present, but also how you present. You have to shock your audience with something fresh, something that only you can provide and you have to present that information in a storytelling format.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s an example:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The 11-year old who INHERITED Versace #fashion #luxury #versace\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sSjMiWhd5MI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h6><strong>Gripping Titles<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your titles should evoke curiosity, emotions, and a sense of anticipation. They should also be concise and provide information that drives action. For example, &#8220;The Truth Behind Getting More Views&#8221; or &#8220;5 Proven Tips to Boost Productivity&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Research and analyze popular Shorts in your niche. Pay attention to the titles that gain high engagement, views, and shares. Find out what resonates best with your target audience and use your creativity to leverage that in your content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h6><strong>Emotions<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Incorporating emotions in your videos, whether long-form or Shorts content helps you build a connection with your audience. By understanding your viewers&#8217; emotional triggers and finding out what emotions arouse their response, you can not only gain a more engaging response but also develop a deeper connection with them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, you can share an unpopular opinion that makes them angry, a humorous message that makes them double over with laughter, or create suspense that leaves them on the edge of their seats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Trick ANYONE Into Watching YOUR VIDEOS!\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TzUhO4ulO4k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h6><strong>Investigate<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To investigate what works for your YouTube channel, use the community tab, and analyze comments and viewer suggestions.

Your video starts by posing a question at the end and providing the answer at the beginning. This clever strategy ensures that viewers watch the short multiple times before they even realize it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to make your shorts loop\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BLKhZBNCnYc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h6><strong>Create a series<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create a Shorts series that takes viewers to your library and keeps them scrolling.

In fact, captioned videos perform better in terms of watch time, showing an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/vidiq.com\/blog\/post\/youtube-captions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">average increase of 12%<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in viewing duration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While manually adding captions can be tiresome, there are helpful tools and software available, such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/youtube.com\/shorts\/orpZEQ9VdoQ?feature=share\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AutoCap<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capcutedit.com\/automatically-add-captions-and-subtitles-in-capcut\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CapCut<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, that simplify the caption-adding and editing process, making your job much easier!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Have You Noticed THIS About YouTube Shorts?\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/49LfEnng-a8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><i>Want to grow your channel?
