OVERVIEW

Creating a Loyal Community Using YouTube

According to Pew Research (2021), YouTube is the most popular online platform in America, with 81% of adults saying they use it. YouTube allows brands to build loyal and devoted audiences, as people often subscribe to channels with a high sense of authenticity and community.

That’s why the comment section is a crucial part of building a strong brand on YouTube. Brands need to connect with viewers by encouraging and responding to comments.

Loyal communities thrive with healthy discussions that bring different perspectives. But ensuring brand safety by removing hate speech, spam, violent or abusive comments is key to keeping the conversation civil and healthy.
