00:00Okay, let's dive into a simple tool
00:02that can totally supercharge your YouTube channel's growth.
00:04So the biggest challenge for any creator
00:07is keeping your audience engaged and on your channel.
00:10Well, here's the solution.
00:12They show up as that little eye icon
00:14up at the top right corner.
00:16Let's break down the four main ways
00:18you can actually use info cards to grow.
00:20First up, you can use a card to guide viewers
00:23to another one of your videos.
00:24And this has a direct impact.
00:26You get more watch time, which is a key metric for growth.
00:30Or even better, send viewers to a whole series of videos
00:32with a playlist card.
00:34The result of that, you increase session time,
00:37which YouTube's algorithm absolutely loves.
00:39You can also use cards to promote another creator's channel.
00:42Pretty cool, right?
00:43This is perfect for collaborations
00:45and shows your audience you're all about providing value.
00:48Now, if you're in a YouTube partner program,
00:50you can link to your own website.
00:52And this is a super powerful way
00:55to drive traffic to your products or maybe your courses.
00:58Okay, let's get into how to use them correctly.
01:01There are some important rules to know.
01:03So this is the big one.
01:04You get a maximum of five cards per video.
01:07That's it.
01:08Also, they aren't available for kids' content.
01:11And, you know, timing is key to not be annoying.
01:13Here's the pro-level move.
01:15When you mention a topic, make the card appear right then.
01:18To really master them, always use relevant cards
01:20with strong text and check your analytics.
01:23So you might be wondering,
01:24how are these any different from the end screens I already use?
01:27Just think of it this way.
01:29Info cards are for during the video,
01:31and end screens are for the finale.
01:33But the real strategic advantage comes
01:36when you start using both of these tools together.
01:38Using both creates this really powerful system
01:41that directly leads to faster channel growth.
01:44So now that you know how they work,
01:46what's the first video you're going to promote?
