Try to partner with another youtuber. Say you will split profits, if you're in it for money reasons.

Optimize the video.
Make the video relevant

YouTube drives traffic to videos it considers to be catchy

What nonsense are you talking about here??? Is there some kind of catchy algo which G uses??? Youtube does not drive traffic it is entirely based on user interaction/metrics as well as what you stated relating to optimizing the video with regards to title, description and tags - which you should have mentioned with being a little more precise.... What matters are factors such as views, shares, backlinks etc....
