How to make a YouTube Intro

First impressions matter. On YouTube, you may only have 3 seconds to make that first impression before a viewer scrolls on to the next. If your viewer drops off within the first 5 seconds, they will never stick around and see the rest of the story you’ve worked so hard to craft. So, make that first impression count with a YouTube intro that will stop the viewer’s thumb from scrolling to the next video. 

Consider your YouTube intro a reward to the viewer for clicking on your video’s thumbnail. Reward them by meeting the expectations you set up for the video in your title and thumbnail. 

That’s a lot of pressure to place on a single YouTube intro! That’s where Krikey AI’s YouTube Intro Maker comes in. With the Krikey AI YouTube intro maker, your first impression can make a lasting impression. Deep breaths, we’ve got you.
