  1. More from: [AccountName]: Videos from the same account
  2. Related videos: Videos with similar characteristics (name tags and so on)

Unless you are a YT partner, the “More from” is going to be collapsed. This means that there is a high probability that any user viewing your video will leave to see an item from “Related videos” element

If you want to keep the user within your account, tag all your videos with a unique tag sequence. For example you can have the same repeating sequence of tags (3-4) and after that add the unique tags for the videos. Doing this will cause the “Related Videos” to show videos also from your account.

  • Upside: once a user gets to one of your videos, the chances that he will see other videos from you are higher
  • Downside: you are giving up on traffic generated by videos from other accounts
