The first 10 seconds of your videos decide whether it's an interesting video or just another video which you would skip watching.

The title is the most important factor of getting views on your videos. Put an intriguing title that attracts viewers to see your video first. For example you met an accident during a trip to an XYZ location and you put the title of your video as "I almost got killed". This is called Clickbait. It creates a temptation and desire to see your video. This is what every YouTuber does for their channel growth.
Just make sure that your title is related to your video and it's not contradicting it.

Create a Powerful Thumbnail
What is a thumbnail?
Thumbnails are reduced-size versions of pictures or videos, used to help in recognizing and organizing them, serving the same role for pictures as a normal text index does for words.
In simple words, thumbnail is a picture which describes what your content is about. So for a YouTuber it is necessary to create a powerful thumbnail to have a deep impact on viewers to see your videos. Using high-quality images, facial close ups and attracting keywords in pictures can help you increase your views.

Interacting with viewers does not means you go and meet them. You must have seen YouTubers telling to subscribe their channel, asking to share, like and comment on their videos. That is called interacting with viewers. You can ask people to subscribe your channel right at the start of your video. The other best option is to create an intro video for your channel. You can put it in the beginning of your video or at the end. It is preferable to put it in the start so that people don't forget to engage with you.
