If you are a content creator on YouTube, you must know about YouTube thumbnails. The photograph on the YouTube video is the thumbnail. Actually, it’s the packaging of your product. The better you package your product, the better you will get attention. It may be possible that the quality of the product is good, but it doesn’t get attention due to bad packaging. An attractive eye-catching thumbnail makes a huge difference to viewers of your video. It attracts viewers. Thumbnail tells us about the content of the video.

Points to be Considered While Preparing Thumbnail

1. Attraction for Audience

A thumbnail visually gives information about the content of the video. Without reading the full introduction, a small and attractive title of a few words lets a viewer decide to watch or not to watch the video.  While planning for the thumbnail one must consider the audience they want to cater to.

2. Consistent style

Consistency is the key to success. A consistent way and style of displaying the thumbnails make the brand of the channel. The image and style you use make up the identity of the channel. By just watching the image, a viewer comes to know that it’s your content. Further, it increases the dedicated viewers of the channel.

3. Thumbnail Size

The size of the thumbnail must be 1280 × 720. It should be full size. A thumbnail of improper dimensions may not be visible online.

4. Thumbnail Color

For if you are planning to create a thumbnail, you need to be cautious while creating it. A light background is always suitable for a thumbnail picture. It is soothing for the eyes and attracts the attention of viewers.

5. Suitable for all devices

Youtube runs on all platforms like cell phones, televisions, and laptops. The thumbnail must be clearly visible on all these devices. Your major concentration should be on the cellphones. In the present scenario, most of the traffic on YouTube is coming through cell phones.

6. Text

You must also take care of text thumbnails. It is also a very important part. A viewer checks the text after checking the picture. The text must be touching and attractive. Examples-“10 ways to earn money easily”, “7 Rules to Change your Life”.

7. Thumbnail must be other than the Screenshot

It’s good to have thumbnails, but it must be different from video content. So while a viewer is watching, the video must not feel boredom or monotonous while watching the video content.

We hope this article will help you to create a proper and effective thumbnail image.
