Here I go posting somethign valuable to GFY, even though I should just bitchsmack you all and shit down your throats. You want to see mad clickthrus? Here you go.
1. Put your domain on the first line of the description. Very first fucking thing the viewer sees. Even on the minimalized description you domain will be visibly clickable.
2. Create your video in two parts. Make the first part a good 30-60 second teaser clip that cuts out JUST at the moment where interest would normally peak. This is what you upload to Youtube.
3. While creating your uploadable clip, and a 30 second run following the video with some text. A simple image ripped together in ms paint will do, with the text "To see what happens next, click here ------->" With your arrow pointing to the right at about 1/5 the distance down the height of the image. You can throw you domain on that frame too to increase the brand of your domain, and connect the dots so clicking your link makes sense to the average Youtube dolt. The arrow will point somewhere near your link at roughly 1/5 down. You can work with this to get it dead on.
Whether or not you actually link them to the second half of the video is up to you. But I recommend you provide them what you've promised. Otherwise you lose their trust right then and there.
Follow these exact simple steps,, and your CTR will skyrocket.
