Did you know that:
- YouTube is the second-largest search engine in the world
- YouTube has over 1 BILLION users worldwide
- 300 hours (12.5 days) of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute
- Every month, people watch the equivalent of 3 MILLENIA worth of video on YouTube
It can be hard to wrap your head around these numbers.
But all you need to know is that these statistics make YouTube a fantastic marketing channel for your business.
YouTube is still not as mature as channels like Google or Email, but it isn’t as new as social media channels like Facebook or Instagram.
What this means is that it’s large enough to be a big opportunity, but not mature enough that it’s too difficult to compete.
If you want to start or grow a YouTube channel, your main challenges are going to be:
- Getting more views on your videos
- Getting more subscribers for your channel
