single video in yt rank possible?

do you have any experience?

is it possible to rank a video (I mean a channel that has published a total of only one video)?

if so what exactly can you do? can i influence the ranking video in any positive way?

thank you.

You have already tried this? How did you go about it. Did you buy views or something else? Backlinks?

Yes, you can rank the video even if it is just one video on your channel. Engagement comes first

Best way is to rank embedded youtube video in google for keyword.

Back in 2013 or 14, BBC or CNN something like that posted article about Jason Statham and how he competed in diving at 1990 games with clip hosted on their service.
Without thinking for a split second, I started recording, done some fast editing and in the next 10 minutes it was already on YouTube.
Believe it or not, it was the first one

Nothing special, but...

In the next 10 minutes, as that was getting shared all over the place in that moment and (I guess) people were just waiting for a clip on YouTube, in 10 minutes I got 301 bug views and 100s of comments.
It got removed after few hours and 300,000 views

What this has to do with your question OP?
Well, maybe nothing but it just proves it is possible getting out there with 1 video.
Of course, what I've done was just a test and nothing else.

Anyway, yes, it is possible.

All the best

Possible but difficult. I recommend you do some kind of social media promotion to improve your odds. In the end; the most important thing is finding the right niche, making good content and being patient.

Why would you just want to rank only one video though?

That's so short term unless you doing some launch jacking for IM products

I think he's asking if it's possible to rank his very first video.

That is actually pretty good depending on the CTR.

If the video have huge CTR and engagements its possible
Ex: Consider this situation if a celebrity created an yt channel it will gets huge CTR and engagament in the first video itself which rank whatever tags used - have seen this in real
