Having an attractive YouTube thumbnail can help encourage people to click on your videos and get your more views and higher rankings for your videos on both YouTube and in Google. Because Google owns YouTube and ranks YouTube videos favorably in their search listings.

Now my video shows you how a newbie with no graphic design skilles makes a nice looking YouTube thumbnail. In learning about Canva.com I discovered another video which took me to the next level.

These gentlemen have a YouTube channel totally focused on created and promoting videos and YouTube channels. They know their business. They have over 100,000 subscribers. Their channel is called Video Influencers. If you want to know more about marketing online with video check them out.
