Video Dubbing On YouTube

The rise of video dubbing on YouTube is a game-changer, making dubbed videos an essential strategy for content creators. Nowadays the most popular way of dubbing your content on YouTube is using YouTube's multi-language audio feature, which allows you to upload dubbed audio tracks directly to your main channel. If you are interested in getting quality dubs onto your main YouTube channel contact BeMultilingual.

Dubbed Channels

The practice involves replacing the original audio with a track in a different language. For instance, an English YouTube channel will dub their English content into another language, like Spanish.

Channels across YouTube have been dubbing videos for years. To see the impact it has on them, check out these examples:

The percentage increase in subscribers for dubbed channels like Dhar Mann, Like Nastya, Veritasium, and Kurzgesagt highlights the immense potential of video dubbing. To learn why this works, see below.

YouTube Dubbing History

One of the most significant benefits of video dubs on YouTube is its ability to expand a channel's reach.

Consider the case of "Like Nastya." Initially, their main channel, in English, garnered an impressive 112M subscribers. This was a remarkable achievement, and more subscribers than 99% of YouTube channels will ever have. However, this all changed after they created their dubbed channels.

By video dubbing, "Like Nastya" didn't just replicate their content in different languages but unlocked global connectivity. The result? A staggering surge in their total subscriber count.

With the addition of dubbed channels, they leapfrogged from 112M to 239.2M subscribers. The impact of video dubbing here is crystal clear - it's a gateway to a broader, more diverse, and global audience.

YouTube's Multi-Language Audio Feature

The new meta for dubbing your content on YouTube is using YouTube's multi-language audio feature. This allows you to upload different languages directly to your main channel. This is superior to the alternative of making separate dubbed channels due to it's simplicity and ability to push multiple audiences to one channel.

If you are looking to learn more about the multi-language audio feature and how you can use it contact dubbing specialists BeMultilingual or read their article regarding MLA.

Localization

The success behind video dubs lies in its localization.

Yes, AI-based dubbing offers a quick and easy solution, but it often needs to catch up in authenticity and cultural nuances. AI voices tend to lack variation, depth, and the natural flow of conversation. This is where accurate video dubbing shines through - its ability to be deeply localized.

At BeMultilingual, accurate dubbing is prioritized. This approach allows for a more nuanced and culturally relevant translation of content. We don't just change the language; we help adapt the content to resonate with different cultural sensibilities and linguistic subtleties. This level of localization is inviting and engaging for audiences, providing them with tailor-made content.

Competitive Advantage

For English speakers, especially in the US and Western Europe, it's easy to overestimate the prevalence of English worldwide. However, in reality, English is the third-most spoken language.

The image above indicates that if you dub your content into Chinese, Spanish, Hindi, Arabic, and Bengali, you're tapping into the native languages of most of the world's population. By doing so, creators can double or even triple their views and subscriber counts.

Want Dubbed Videos?

As you can see, video dubbing is a game-changer for YouTube's growth. It's a bridge to a world of untapped audiences ready to engage with your content in their native tongue.

At BeMultilingual, we're about translating words and connecting cultures. Our dubbing services are your ticket to capturing the hearts and minds of viewers globally.

If you're ready to take your YouTube channel to the next level, contact us today, and let's help you connect with a global audience.
