Rather than relying on the common request for viewers to subscribe to your channel, which has become somewhat unoriginal due to its widespread usage, you can employ a more engaging technique called the Watermark.

Have you ever noticed that certain channels have a watermark positioned at the bottom right of their videos? Oftentimes, this watermark is the same image as the channel's profile picture. When a viewer clicks on the watermark, it triggers a subscribe call-to-action.

However, it's unlikely that many viewers would instinctively click on a profile picture while watching a video. So, what if you could change the watermark to a clear and prominent "SUBSCRIBE" button?

Let's give it a try!

Before you start

You have the freedom to use any logo or image as your watermark. However, we highly recommend using a bright red color for maximum visibility and clarity. Ensure that the call-to-action text is as clear and concise as possible. To make things easier for you, we offer a FREE download of the image we use for our watermark.
