Creative Content Ideas for YouTube Part I

YouTube is the biggest video engine, and it’s already a crowded place. Every industry has its influencers who post quality video content every day or every week. Keep in mind that there are hundreds of content creators who are established and have more than one million subscribers. Thus, there is the central question for a newbie—how to go viral on YouTube?

If you have not chosen an industry yet, we would love to cover a few creative ideas for your YouTube content. With this type of content, you can blow up your channel and go viral.

Prank: The Best Way to Make a Video Go Viral

Prank videos are the easiest but the most compelling type of videos. If you have not chosen an industry yet, then this would be easier to start with. Keep in mind that a prank is not something that everyone can do, especially if you live in an orthodox country where people don’t get jokes quickly. Also, there could be police notifications and problems because pranking is not something people quickly get used to.

Either way, pranks always go viral. There is a perfect example of using the prank industry to get lots of fans and then switching to a different sector. For instance, LAHWF was a viral channel. Andrew, the owner of the channel, was one of the most popular pranksters. He grew the chain to 2.5 million subscribers and changed the industry. Now, he runs vlogs and exciting interviews. It’s a perfect example of how you can use viral type videos to blow up your channel and then change the industry with an actual fan base.

Pay it Forward and Do Giveaways

Pay it forward means that you can give money or pay someone in a restaurant or another place. Keep in mind that paying it ahead is a perfect way to blow up your channel. Giveaways is another option, and it’s similar to pay it forward activities.

People love watching videos where someone is granted money, a house, a car, etc. So, why not use this opportunity? It will go viral no matter what and you can get thousands of subscribers with just one video. Let’s take an example from “Mr.Beast.”

Mr.Beast has up to 220 million subscribers, and most of his videos are giveaways or pay it forward activities. His videos always go viral and get around 15 million views. His channel has 60% engagements, and that’s higher than any giveaways on a YouTube channel.
