When it comes to the Internet, you never quite know what’s going to go viral. However, with enough planning and promotion, you can make sure that your video is the one that captures the world’s attention.
Follow these steps to get 500,000 YouTube views in one day.
1. Build up your base of subscribers.
Not every single subscriber you have is going to watch your video the very day it’s uploaded. However, the YouTubers who already have millions of subscribers are the ones who get the most views in upload day. Check out this post and this post to learn how to get more subscribers.
Lilly Singh, a.k.a Superwoman, has almost ten million subscribers. That’s how videos like this one get more than a million views within a week.
2. Find a video idea that will capture the world’s attention.
The videos that go viral are the ones that are unlike anything the world has seen before. In order to get views, you have to come up with an idea that’s going to rock the world.
James Corden hit viral video gold with his “Carpool Karaoke” series. Even people who don’t watch The Late Late Show can’t get enough of Corden’s quirky clips.
3. Promote, promote, promote!
The top YouTubers stay on top by constantly promoting their videos in the days leading up to the release. They share, tweet, post, and tease to get their followers excited for each and every new video.

4. Share your video in every single place that you can.
When it comes to promoting your video, don’t stop as soon as you’ve pressed the upload button. Post your video to Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, Snapchat, Tumblr, and anywhere else that you can think of. The more places you post it, the more people will share it and see it.
