Abu T.
YouTube Strategist, Video Editor & YouTube SEO | Health & Wellness
If your health, wellness, fitness or medical brand picks YouTube topics by guesswork, buyers rarely find your videos. As a YouTube strategist, I lead a team of YouTube SEO specialists and video editors who build every video from keyword research. → YouTube SEO results: 1. Inner Dimension Yoga, Travis Eliot's channel (March 2024 to April 2025) Their team filmed the classes. I was their YouTube strategist, and my team supplied the keyword research, titles, descriptions and thumbnails for 51 new videos. Result: by July 2026, those 51 videos had passed 5.2 million public views, and 20 had crossed 100,000. They were still gaining views more than a year after our work ended. Linking YouTube views to paid membership: I proposed the two-tier model their team adopted. Premium classes stay behind the membership paywall, while search-built videos on YouTube bring new viewers toward it. Every video carried a tracked link, so the team could see which videos started free trials. 2. OPTIFAST UK, Nestlé Health Science's weight-management program, won here on Upwork As their YouTube strategist, I built the program on YouTube SEO. My team researched what people search about weight loss and intermittent fasting, then scripted, voiced, animated and published faceless videos that answer those searches. Result: uploads stopped in 2023. As of September 2026, 11 of the 18 videos rank in YouTube's top 5 for their target searches, and 3 rank number 1. → How I work as a YouTube strategist: Content, Clicks, Conversions 1. Content: we find the questions your buyers type into YouTube and Google, and plan each video around one of them. 2. Clicks: YouTube SEO titles, descriptions and thumbnails, written and A/B tested to win that search. 3. Conversions: every video carries its own UTM-tagged short link on your own domain. Your analytics then show YouTube as a named source of leads, trials and sales. → What we take on: 1. YouTube SEO from day one: keyword research and a content plan for your next three to six months of videos. 2. Full YouTube channel management: scripts, editing, thumbnails, publishing and Shorts for every new video. 3. YouTube SEO for your existing videos, where the data shows room to rank. 4. Monthly reporting that ties your YouTube marketing to leads, trials and sales, straight from your own analytics. → YouTube video editing on a monthly retainer: Need a YouTube video editor rather than a strategy? My team edits videos and Shorts with custom animations, motion graphics and branded calls to action. Channels we have edited for: finance, self-development, travel, news, health, wellness, fitness, yoga and personal injury law. Current work: Rosenfeld Injury Lawyers, Jonathan Rosenfeld's Chicago personal injury firm. Since 2025, my team has run its two YouTube channels end to end: keyword research, scripts, videos, Shorts, YouTube SEO, and scheduling across five platforms. Best fit: 1. Health, wellness, fitness and medical brands with a program, product or membership behind their channel, where one new customer is worth a few hundred dollars or more. 2. Law firms that need a full YouTube strategy and end-to-end channel management, along with steady video production. 3. Any channel that needs a dependable editing team. Not a fit: one-off edits priced per video, view buying, or anything against YouTube's rules. Working together: a weekly call, a reply to every message within 24 hours, and one person who owns your project. Book a YouTube strategist consultation and bring your channel link. You will leave with three video topics your buyers already search for.
