Pro tips for killer intros and outros
Create a YouTube intro that connects with your audience
Who did you create your latest video for? A crowd of potential customers? A gaggle of adoring fans? Your mom and dad? Whoever your audience is, make sure your YouTube intro gets them excited to watch your entire video, beginning to end.
Keep branding in mind
Ask yourself, “What kind of video am I making?” Is it for your company or for your family vacation trip? Is it fun and lighthearted or dark and brooding? Now craft your YouTube intro to match that mood and aesthetic to keep things consistent.
Short and sweet
Remember, we’re talking about YouTube intros. Now is NOT the time to tell your entire life story or ramble on and on about how “totally rad” your video is going to be. Keep it short and sweet. We recommend 15 seconds or less — just enough time to introduce your company or video topic and to get your viewers excited about it.
Craft a stellar YouTube outro
Don’t forget to show the end of your video some love too! Our YouTube outro maker will let you easily showcases other videos on your channel. It’s quick and easy to add a CTA like “Subscribe Now” and boost your channel’s subs. Or use a CTA like “Learn More” to drive traffic to your website and increase sales. From beginning to end, Biteable’s got your back.

YouTube intros are vital to increasing audience retention and boosting watch-times on your videos. A YouTube intro, combined with a solid logo, will create brand recognition around your channel. This means viewers will be more likely to click on one of your videos if they see your logo pop up. YouTube intros are also an efficient way to showcase your essential into in seconds – logo, website, social handles.
Your YouTube intro should communicate vital information about your channel in the first ten seconds. Who you are, the subject of the video, and how people can benefit from it if they watch from start to end. “Hi, my name’s Alex. Today I’m going to show you how I wrote a manuscript in one weekend and how you can do the same.”
Make YouTube Intros quickly with Biteable. Biteable is an intuitive video maker that gives great results in minutes. Start with the YouTube intro template that’s right for your channel, tweak the colors and text, and add your logo. Use the same video at the start of all your YouTube videos.
Your YouTube intro will be one of the first things your audience sees every time they click on one of your videos. In the first five seconds, your intro video needs to take care of: showing your channel name, your logo, or both. This is because brand recognition is vital for boosting engagement and watch-time on YouTube.
15 seconds. Keep it short and sweet.
People are easily distracted, so we recommend keeping your intro under 15 seconds. Videos up to two minutes in length get the most engagement, so that gives you ample time to deliver a punchy intro and follow up with the rest of your brand message.
