Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We’re here to help.

What do most YouTubers use to make intros?

Most Youtubers use professional video editors to make their own YouTube intros. However, video creation platforms like PlayPlay allow you to create professional quality videos, with no video editing skills required. In just a few minutes, you can create a powerful video intro that reflects your brand and makes your company stand out.

How long is an ideal YouTube intro?

You only have 3 seconds to capture your audience’s attention so make them count. But the ideal YouTube intro will usually be between 5 and 15 seconds to give you enough time to introduce your brand, without making them lose interest. You can create an eye-catching video intro in just a few clicks with hundreds of PlayPlay video templates.

Do you need a YouTube intro?

It is absolutely mandatory! Having a well-crafted YouTube intro gives your audience an understanding of what they can expect from your videos. Having a visually appealing intro grabs viewers' attention and helps to establish your brand identity.

What should a YouTube intro look like?

A good YouTube intro should be engaging and consistent with your brand's identity. Try to do this with an unsuspected quote, stat or question. It also must include your logo, branding and messaging. A YouTube intro is designed to capture the viewer's attention and encourage them to watch the rest of the video. Create a professional-looking intro that reflects your brand's style and message with PlayPlay's customizable templates.
